Description

Excerpt from Church and State: Or National Religion and Church Establishments; Considered With Reference to Present Controversies The perilous times of the last days, announced long ago by the lips of Apostles, have now set in. The close of the last century witnessed what the world had never seen before, a nation of civilised atheists and learned apostates, who bade open defiance to the God of heaven. When this hideous portent appeared, its dark shadows spread even into holy ground. A negative theory of national duty, almost unknown before, found apologists and advocates within the bosom of the Christian Church. States were counselled to have nothing what ever to do, in their public Character, with the worship of God and the profession of the faith of Christ. The alliance of Church and State, in former ages, was main tained to be the source of countless evils, and their entire separation an essential and imperative law of Christian duty. These Views have been sometimes upheld by serious argument. But a more painful spectacle has been Often witnessed, when mere novices in the faith have discarded, with self-complacent pride, the consenting judgment of all the great lights of the Church in earlier days, and the mushrooms of a night have exalted them selves proudly against the cedars of Lebanon.
