Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Studies Church History: The Rise of the Temporal Power Benefit of Clergy Excommunication The first of the following essays has already appeared, in a less extended form, in the North American. Review, It records the establishment of principles of which the subsequent development is traced in the two succeeding essays. Throughout the whole I have sought rather to present facts than to draw inferences, and I have endeavored to confine myself to points which illustrate the temporal aspect of ecclesiastical history, showing how the church, in meeting the successive crises of its career, succeeded in establishing the absolute theocratic despot ism which diverted it so strangely from its spiritual functions. If in this I have appeared to dwell too exclusively on the faults and wrong-doing of the church, it has arisen from no lack of appreciation of the services rendered to humanity by the organization which in all ages has assumed for itself the monopoly of the heritage of Christ. Yet if we ask what would have been the condition of the world if that organization had not succeeded in bearing the ark of Christianity through the wilderness of the first fifteen centuries, in summing up the benefits which man has derived through the church, we may also not unreasonably inquire how much greater would have been our advance in all that renders us worthy of the precepts of the Gospel had that church always been true to its momentous trust.
