Excerpt from The Christian World, Vol. 19: Magazine of the American and Foreign Christian Union; January to December, 1868 From these verses thus rendered, Romish divines pretend to prove that although a thing be against God, nevertheless, on account of the virtue of obedience, the subject who does that thing does not sin. In other words, the priest must be obeyed instead of God. The reader has but to turn to his own Bible to see how grossly those verses are perverted.
