The Petrine Claims: A Critical Inquiry is a book written by Richard Frederick Littledale and published in 1889. The book is a critical examination of the claims made by the Catholic Church regarding the authority of St. Peter and his successors as the head of the Church. Littledale, a prominent Anglican theologian and hymn writer, argues that the Catholic Church's interpretation of the biblical passages relating to St. Peter's authority is flawed and that the claims made by the Church are not supported by historical evidence. He also challenges the Catholic doctrine of papal infallibility and argues that it is not a necessary component of Christian faith. The book is a significant contribution to the ongoing debate between the Catholic and Anglican Churches over the nature of ecclesiastical authority and the role of the papacy in the Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
