Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Church Considered in Relation to Unity and Schism If there was reason to think that the work was calculated to be in any measure useful, he did not feel that he would be justified in its suppression. Though fully aware of the disadvantageous ground from which he would have to start, the hope that he might succeed in producing some influential impression of the evils of Schism and the advantages of Christian Unity, made him content to make his appearance, immersed in the shadow of greater names. And it affected him deeply that in Scotland -his native country - a schismatic spirit should prevail, more fearfully, perhaps, than in any other part of Christendom; and yet not a voice be raised against it by any of her sons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Union, or the Divided Church Made One And here it will be permitted by the reader, and will be suflicient for the writer, to assume, that the oneness intended is, at least, a union of affection. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye love one another. Every instance of division, therefore, which ia capacitates Christians for reciprocating sincere expressions Of Christian love with any part of the Church, is an unequivocal breach Of this great law Of unity. Let the subject Of differ ence be ever so trivial in itself, and the breach apparently ever so narrow, still, if it reach down to the heart, it is schism: or let it embrace ever so many particulars, and some Of them even of considerable importance, still if it leave the heart entire, and allow a visible interchange of Christian offices, the sin is absent. The law of Christ on the subject sis-se definite, that we can lay our finger, so to speak, on the very point where the sin of schism begins; and, by comparing the existing state of the Christian Church with the express requirements of that law, we can determine, with all the'exactness of a chemical analysis, the places and the de grees in which it exists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Christian Unity The interest in Christian Unity has greatly in creased during the last ten years. This is due to several causes, the chief one being the conscious ness of the Churches that a divided Christendom does not witness to the unity that is in Christ and that a divided Church cannot accomplish the tasks that are everywhere challenging it. As a result of this conviction efforts are everywhere being made to remove those barriers that have for ages separated the many communions of the one Church and to find some basis for reunion on which all may achieve that oneness for which our Lord prayed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unity of the Church Explained: The English Schism and Several Heresies Examined "O ye sons of man, how long will you be dull of heart? Why do you love vanity and seek after lying?" - Psalm iv. 3. Protestants! you have separated yourselves, by your nefarious Schism, from the unity of Christendom; but why do you persist in the separation, regardless of the admonition of God to live in the Catholic peace? It being written, Ps. xxi. 18, They have parted my garment amongst them, and upon my vesture they cast lots; why should you become dividers of the Lord's tunic, woven with charity from above, which even the crucifiers of Christ did not divide? Why would you divide the great linen sheet (Acts, x. 11) let down by the four corners, perhaps the four gospels, from heaven? You are deaf to the divine saying, Ps. ii. 7, "The Lord hath said to me: Thou art my son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession." Ps. xxi. 28. All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord, and all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight: the kingdom is the Lord's; and he shall have dominion over the nations: Ps. xlix. The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken: and he hath called the earth from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof, out of Sion the loveliness of his beauty. If you choose not to understand the Psalmist, hear the Lord himself speaking by his own mouth in the gospel, Luke, xxiv. 46, "It behoved that all things that were written of Christ in the law, and prophets, and psalms, be fulfilled; and that penance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem."

This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Unity and Its Recovery Some members of the English Church have endeavored to fix principles of approximation on the part of that communion with the Roman Church, one consequence of which has been the secession of large numbers of her best and ablest men to Rome. But this very result has shown how utterly futile must be any attempt to recon cile these two ecclesiastical systems. Among Protestants there have been, and continue to be, discussions upon the union of various sects and churches, and a very strong feeling of the evil of division prevails. Special interest is manifested in the subject at the present time, and it is supposed that the state of the popular religious mind is favorable to the consideration of any suggestions Offered for its solution. The interest that is felt on this subject generally, has essayed something like organization to secure the end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Orders and Unity Various interpretations have been put upon the fact, and we shall have to consider them. But I will take it as historically true at start ing that Christ did, in some sense, as Christians of all kinds have admitted, train men to be put in charge of their fellow-men in His name, and that He took the risks of this method of action. I think this fundamental fact needs a good deal more consideration than is commonly given it. We will begin our inquiry by recalling to memory a passage in the Gospels in which, as clearly as anywhere, our Lord indicated His fundamental motive and principle in deal ing with the moral needs of men, and that in special connexion with the mission of the Twelve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Price of Unity I have committed the following pages to the press with much hesitation and some misgivings. They were begun some three or four years ago and then laid aside, as it seemed to me a thankless task to add one more to the many books already written on the subject. Controversial books seem generally to have the effect rather of rousing the animosity of those for whom they have been written, than of convincing them. They look out for flaws in the arguments, and are often disedified by language that sounds harsh in their ears, even though it be used only for the purpose of clear statement of fact, and are antagonized by what appears to them a lack of fairness in the statement of their position. And these books are sure to call forth answers, and thus deepen the antagonism and bitterness, and end, perhaps, in setting people farther apart, rather than in drawing them together.

Book Synopsis Catholic Unity (Classic Reprint) by : Henry Michael Mason
Download or read book Catholic Unity (Classic Reprint) written by Henry Michael Mason and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catholic Unity If then, the principles laid down in the following tract be true, as I hold them to be unassailably true, the condition of the Christian world appears clearly defined. Our own Church, with that of England, and the numerous Churches of the East, including the Russian, are not in a state of heresy, because fully recognising the Catholic creed; are not in a state of schism, because, beside being under the sacerdotal institution of our Lord, they have not formally and officially refused each other's commu nion, though they have made additional municipal articles of faith of their own. The Bishop of Rome, with his adherents, are not heretical, for the same reason, nor fundamentally schismatical, because pos sessed of the same sacerdotal institution; but are yet schismatical in the sense of refusing communion with other churches possessed of the elements of truth and order. Of the promiscuous mass of Chris tians called Protestants, some are heretical and others not so, according as they do or do not embrace the Catholic creed; but all are fundamentally schis matical when defective in that order of the gospel established by our Lord as the foundation of his Church's unity. Whether the Church of Rome proper and its dependencies, have for ever barred the way to reducing the dogmas of the particular Coun cil of Trent, to the rank of municipal laws, or, Whether those dogmas be, susceptible 'of 'a less ob noxious and culpable interpretation than is found in practice, I will not undertake to determine. If the answer to these inquiries be unfavourable, then are the hopes of a reunion among Christian Churches, as remote from fulfilment, as they were three hun dred years ago. To a consummation so devoutly to be wished as that union, let me be allowed to say, that I consider the jealousy of power on the part of the Bishop of Rome, in other words the papal supre macy, as the chief, if not the only obstacle. For example, no Roman thinks it any sin to worship God without an image, or to pray in a tongue understood, or to forbear, at least in public, and in some places, the invocation of the saints, and the adoration of the host, or to give the cup to the laity. Nay, in Eng land, they came without scruple to our churches till they were afterwards forbid by a bull from the Pope. What hinders then'l - But if thoughts of the plan upon which, without the compromise of truth, (a compromise more fatal than schism itself, ) the union of Christian Churches might be efibcted, have cross ed the imagination of a comparatively retired stu dent, he is not ignorant of the restraints imposed on the expression of those thoughts, by the brevity of a preface, and the circumstances of the times. This at least may be claimed, that the views of Catholicity here presented, secure for our own branch of the Catholic Church, a position which would make her the centre of that union to which the eyes of all good men, and true of heart, must anxiously turn.
