Hi everyone! I wish everyone a blessed Lord's Day!
I'm looking for books that are polemical in nature arguing against the Romish church.
I have "The Roman Catholic Controversy" by James White, but I found it to be rather superficial on some topics.
I'd like something which is very meaty and systematically and rigorously goes through the major doctrines of Rome one by one and gives a full rejoinder.
I've read "Roman Catholicism" by Loraine Boettner which was excellent, yet many of his arguments address the body of doctrine present at the time of the Vatican I council.
It was written before the Vatican 2 council which introduced and redefined numerous doctrines. An updated version of the book would be ideal. I noticed there are many anti-Protestant and anti-Reformed polemical works written by Catholic apologists in the past 10-30 years, yet almost nothing of vice versa! That is a real shame.
I also have read "The Church of Rome at the Bar of History" by Webster. This book was good and addressed some Vatican 2 doctrine, yet I feel he was often holding back and I wanted a more polemical work.
BTW, I've just ordered "Earnest Hours, to Which Is Added: The Bible True, and Infidelity Wicked -And- Rome Against the Bible, and the Bible Against Rome" by Plumer.
You can download the highly regarded "Evangelical Theological Perspectives on Post-Vatican II Roman Catholicism" by Leonardo De Chirico as his PhD dissertation here: https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/files/2934796/401303.pdf
