Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oxford Divinity Compared With That of the Romish and Anglican Churches: With a Special View of the Doctrine of Justification by Faith, as It Was Made of Primary Importance by the Reformers; And as It Lies at the Foundation of All Scriptural Views of the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ Whoever may honour this work with their attention will soon perceive that the author is deeply impressed with the grave importance of the errors, and the probable evil consequences to the Church, of what is here called, for convenience sake, Oxford Divinity, In his view, the vital principle of that Divinity, so far as the system is peculiar, is precisely the same as that to which are to be traced all the various and gross departures from truth and godliness in the Church of Rome. It was well advised by "the principal Theologues" of the Council of Trent, that the Fathers and Divines of that body should be "assiduous and exact in their studies" concerning the doctrine of Justification, "because all the errors of Martin (of the Reformation) were resolved into that point. For (said they) having undertaken from the beginning to oppugn the Indulgences, he saw he could not obtain his purpose, except he destroyed the works of repentance, (expiatory penances) in defect whereof, Indulgences do succeed. And Justification by faith only, seemed to him a good means to effect this - from whence he hath denied efficacy in the Sacraments, authority of Priests, Purgatory, Sacrifice of the Mass, and all other remedies for remission of sins."
