Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 14 For it does appear to us to savour somewhat of presumption, to imagine that a course of doctrines, which had long heretofore been held and maintained by those whom we have ever been accustomed to consider as the standard divines of the Anglican Church (to use a favourite and familiar expression of its advocates), which for a season reigned triumphant in her, and has never altogether ceased to hold its ground among some of the more earnest of her followers; which is now revived with a weight of learning and acuteness of research, backed by a most edifying zeal and piety; and which carries conviction throughout her ranks to an extent which threatens almost universal adherence to this winning interpretation of her articles; should be so easily abashed and refuted, and so readily disposed of. We have conceived too high an opinion of the intrinsic merit of these doctrines, even defective as they are, and have formed too favourable a judgment of the superior virtues of their professors, to believe that either the one or the other are to be so summarily mastered. Yet it is not in this sense that we mean to deal with these publications. We have too abundant occupation in our own, to think of labouring in another´s vineyard; and while we merely record, in passing, the general verdict, as in our humble judgment it appears to stand between the respective combatants, we propose strictly to confine ourselves to those items of the controversy which more immediately bear upon ourselves. To take then the first in dignity, as in repute and importance - the charge of the Lord Bishop of London; we cannot but acquiesce in the propriety of the principle laid down in the exordium, that "it will be his endeavour, in humble reliance upon the guidance of the Holy Spirit, not to enter into a polemical discussion on the truth of the doctrines or the propriety of the rites and ceremonies, which will come under consideration, hut to act as an interpreter of the Church´s sense as to the one, and of her will as to the other."
