Excerpt from Discourses on the Apostolical SuccessionThings which are very absurd in themselves, are sometimes forced by circumstances into positions Of great importance. This we believe to be true Of the modern doctrine of Apostolical Succession. N othing could save it from utter contempt, but the extent and respectability of the denomination ofchristians With which it stands associated. Enor mous as its pretensions are, it gains currency from the stations and in¿uence of those who appear on its side, and it Will not die of itself. Like other errors, it must be brought to the tests Of reason and scrip ture, and to subject it to the operation of these tests, is the appropri ate work of the pastors of the churches, who, in their respective places, are set for the defence of the Gospel.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
