Writings of Henry Barrow, 1587-1590 (Elizabethan Non-Conformist Texts)
by Leland H. Carlson
Murdoch Campbell believed that moral and religious decline have sapped our spiritual strength. We no longer have the resources to avert impending social collapse, or to reduce the resulting risk of inferno, deliberate or accidental.
