1684 Concerning Invocation of Saints 1ed Anti Catholic Samuel Freeman Protestant
Samuel Freeman, a 17th-century Protestant writer, was known to publically criticize the Catholic Church and the Pope. Freeman states that Romanists, as he calls Catholics in his book “Concerning Invocation of Saints”, even grant that “the Pope’s canonizations are doubtful and subject to error (p.72).” While Freeman notes that many of the canonized figures in the Catholic Church do deserve it, such as Pope Gregory VII (or Saint Hildebrand), he also cautions members of the Catholic Church against saint invocation and intercession as they “are not only in danger of invocating Saints, but Devils also”.
