Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Collection of Papers Connected With the Theological Movement of 1833 It seems probable that the publication of this collection of papers at the present moment may serve, under the Divine Blessing, to promote the peace and welfare of the Church of England. That peace has been disturbed, that welfare endangered, by suspicions having been awakened against a large body of the Clergy, as though they entertained designs other than true and faithful to the Church. Of that suspicion and want of confidence, I myself, through the force of circumstances, have come in for no ordinary share, and have therefore both reason and obligation to speak; and having also, as I hope and believe, the means of obviating that suspicion, and of restoring confidence, cannot be accused of acting without cause, in seeking to make use of those means; but should rather be guilty of a dereliction of duty towards myself, towards others, and towards the Church, if I failed to do so. In the affairs of the world, when a man labours under suspicion, no means so effectual of allaying it can be found, as by his courting investigation and disclosing his secret papers; and where confidence has been withdrawn from him, no way of restoring that confidence can be named, comparable to that of producing the calm and deliberate approval of the wise, the aged, and the good, of that conduct which, in the eyes of others, through imperfect apprehension of the case, has led to the opposite result. If this be so in things relating to the world, it must needs be so in things relating to the Church, unless men act towards the one, with a measure diverse from that which they apply to the other: in which case it would reasonably appear, that the blame would rest, not with the objects of suspicion, but with those who entertain it.
