Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Law of Church Ornaments and Utensils: Including Communion Tables, Vestures, Organs, Candles and Crosses A person unacquainted with our Ecclesiastical system would naturally suppose that the Clergy, being in several respects a distinct body in the State, with peculiar duties and privileges, would be governed by a distinct Code of Laws, in all matters relating to their particular functions. This is the case with the Military Profession, who have Laws framed for the express purpose, under the title of Articles of War. But it is not so in our Church, for there the Law consists of a mass of the most heterogeneous materials, and is, in many particulars, so vague and indefinite, that not only Bishops and Clergymen, but even the most practised and accomplished Lawyers are often unable to arrive at any satisfactory result. As many of the Laws by which the Clergy are to be governed were framed by Popish Legates and Archbishops long before the Reformation, and are vague and uncertain in their operation, and difficult to be understood in their effect, we cannot be surprised if honest men of all parties are constantly arriving at conflicting conclusions.
