Author Description

Excerpt from The Case of Obedience to Rulers in Things Indifferent, and the Power of the Offertory as a Means of Church Extension: Briefly Considered, in a Charge Delivered to the Clergy of the Archdeaconry of London on May 18, 1843 I shall forbear to make any further comments upon the general aspect of the times, or to touch upon any controversies relating to doctrine. But since the office which I have the honour to hold is, in the present state of the administration of the Ecclesiastical law, almost wholly conversant about the temporal matters of the Church, and outward customs, the due administration and observation of which it is the duty of the Archdeacon to super intend and maintain, it may not be out of place to allude to feelings and principles, which have been called into action by certain Injunctions and Counsels, respecting the mode'of performing the public ser vices, which have been delivered by our Diocesan, both publicly and privately, to his Clergy.
