Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Well-Instructed Scribe; Or Reform and Conservatism: A Sermon Preached at the Installation Based upon these two principles of reverence and hope - both of them among the noblest and most powerful which actuate the human heart - it is not strange that we should thus meet everywhere with the spirit of conservatism and of reform, and we should expect to find them very active in religion in which reverence and hope find so much employment and food. Accordingly, we find conservatives and reformers, an old school and new school, a high church and low church, in every denomination. The most conservative sect has those in it who think it goes too fast, and the most reforming sect has those who wish it to go faster. Martin Luther was too much of a conservative for many of his followers; and I have no doubt that the Romish pope is considered by many catholics too much of a reformer, as yielding too much to the spirit of innovation. For the tendency is always to extremes. For some conservatives no one can be conservative enough; for some reformers no one can be radical enough. This is the tendency, and this is the mischief. For, according to my view, every one ought to be a conservative, and every one ought to be a reformer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
