Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Theological Works of Herbert Thorndike, Vol. 3: Sometime Prebendary of the Collegiate Church St. Peter, Westminster The greatest difference that is to be discerned among those things that concern the duty of all Christians, consists in this; that some of them concern Christians as Christians; others, as members of the Church. For though all Christians, as Christians, are bound to be members of the Church (inasmuch as it is a part of their profession to believe one Catholic Church); yet their obligation to be Christians, being in order of nature and reason before their obligation to be members of the Church (because the very being of the Church presupposeth all that are members of it to be Christians), that obligation which is original and more ancient, must needs be presupposed to that which is grounded upon it. Of what consequence it may be to distinguish this difference in the matter of Christian duties, will perhaps appear in due time. In the mean, I shall freely say my opinion, that all the divines in the Christian world cannot more pertinently, and to better purpose, comprise the subject which they profess to be employed about, than by dividing it into that which concerns Christians as Christians, and that which concerns them as members of the Church. For mine own present purpose, it is evident, that the disputes which divide us, do concern either the state of particular Christians towards God, or the obligation they have to other Christians as members of the Church.
