Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Letter to a Friend: Relating to the Present Convocation at Westminster Sir, I Have fully considered what you have been pleased to offer to me in yours concerning the Convocation now met at Westminster, and the Alterations intended to be made therein in the present Offices, Rites and Constitutions of our Church, and all what you say I apprehend to be reducible to these three heads; 1. That no alterations ought at all to be made in things pertaining to Religion but when there is a very great necessity for it. 2. That at present there is no such necessity for the alterations intended. And, 3. That, if there were, this is no time for it, when so many of the Fathers of our Church, and other eminent persons of the Clergy do now by their suspension stand incapacitated to act with us in this matter. As to the first, I readily grant what you say, That nothing is more dangerous to Religion, than frequently to make alterations in the things pertaining thereto, because an unsteadiness as to these, although in outward circumstantials onely, which are always alterable, may to many become an argument against the whole.
