Romish Controversy; Being a Series of Essays and Letters on Some of the Leading Doctrines of the Church of Rome

Alexander Carson

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Here it is supposed as an undoubted fact that there is a tremendous weight of authority in favor Of this doctrine, whatever weight of evidence may be against it. Now, whatever weight Roman Catholics themselves may choose to attach to this supposed authority, it is not admitted by any well-instructed Protestant as of any weight at all. What is this tremendous authority As respects the grammatical import of the words, This is my body, to any unprejudiced mind, in the smallest degree above idiocy, there cannot be even a difficulty. Viewed through the prejudice of ages, it found a difficulty even to the masculine mind of Luther. Give up prejudice, Mr. And the tremendous weight of authority becomes light as air. With respect to the authority of the Church, and the Opinion of the individuals mentioned by the writer, this surely is not undoubted. In the estimation of every consistent Protestant, it weighs nothing at all.
