About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1808. Excerpt: ... faith and patience displayed by all ranks of Christians, under sufferings the most appalling to human nature. Among these Christians, he gives a long list of illustrious Bishops, who endured the most excruciating tortures, rather than renounce their God and Saviour. Read, Sir, his account of the Dioclesian persecution, and perhaps you will feel in your heart some tenderness, even for Bishops. You have given us, Sir, a very unwarrantable account of the Nicehe council; and to have some colour for your representation, you say, . in a note, p. 33O, that Gregory Nazianzen " speaks of the unprincipled ambition and shameful conduct of the clergy of that council." When I see the passage which gives that information, I shall not be disposed to doubt that it is to be found in the works of Gregory; but then I shall oppose to it the account which Eiisebius gives us of that council. He was a member of the council, and must, therefore, have known more abput it than Gregory, who lived fifty years after the event. Eusebhtu says nothing, that I can find, about " unprincipled ambition and shameful conduct." If you will iibnsult the thirteenth chapter of the third book, you will find that nothing occurred inconsistent with gravity and decorum. He mentions, indeed, an undue degree of warmth that appeared in some of the members, . and some instances of personal reflections, which the Emperor, vho was present, immediately checked. Arianlsm, and the time of keeping Easter, were the most material points debated in that council, and the first hi particular was. very interesting; of course it would excite warmth and warmth generally produces improprieties; but none occurred, according to Eusebius, but what the. subjects, and the number of the members present, would naturally produce...
