Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pastoral Letter to the Clergy and Laity of His Diocese Creed, the article on the descent into hell, which the Reviewers Of the Prayer Book had left out and further, till a solemn assurance was given to the Archbishop of Canterbury, that, in omitting the Atha nasian Creed, and in the other omissions in our Liturgy, no essential departure was designed from the doctrine, discipline, and worship Of the English Church. Hence, the Athanasian creed is virtually as binding upon the American Church as 'i1pon the English; so that any member of that Church who should deny the truth 'of that creed, or any article of it, would, thereby, become a heretic. On this same principle, viz}: that the judgment of the One Catholic and Apostolic Church, in regard to faith, and order, and sacraments, is the ultimate Standard for all Christians, it _is, that whatever, in the way of doctrine, is set forth by any national Church for the protection or illustration of truth, must be held subservient to such judgment, and be understood in consistency with it.* There is no middle way between this and the merest private judgment, or the doing that which is right in one's own eyes, a thing directly forbidden by Almighty God. From this, it must be manifest to all, that a dio cese does not determine its own faith, but comes nu der the necessity, by becoming a diocese, to believe and do certain things already determined for it by Almighty God, _as authoritatively set forth by the Universal Church, and conveyed to it by the national Church, and that it has no power to alter, to modify.

Is not the duty of seeing to it entirely committed to the clergy? I would revive in your recollections the law of the Church, printed in every Prayer Book, just before the Psalms in Metre, where it is written thus: It shall be the duty of every minister, with such assistance as he can obtain from persons skilled in music, to give order concerning the tunes to be sung at any time in his Church; and especially it shall be his duty to sup press all light and unseemly music.

This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastoral Letter Addressed to the Clergy and Laity of the Diocese of Halifax Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth, shall be bound also in leave: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth, shall be loosed also in heaven (st. Matthew, XVIII, In these words of Our Lord, we read the constitution of His Church as a law-making body. Until they were spoken, the legislative power of men went no farther than the bounds of temporal justice and utility. All law in the pagan world was directed toward the welfare of the State, of the family as forming a part of the State, and of the individual as a member, either actual or prospective, of the State. The Jews, it is true. As God's favoured people, had received explicit ordinan ces that covered all the details of their private and public life, of religious ceremonial and of their dealings with the gentile races by which they were surrounded. But not until Christ conferred upon His Apostles the power of binding and loodng was there so clear an eu dorsement, on the part of God, of laws intended for man. In this comprehensive authorization, there is no mention of details; there is simply the right to make laws, to enforce them or to dispense from them - yet always with the assurance that what the Church shall do here on earth, will be ratified in Heaven. Weak as men may be and unwise as their counsels so often are, the promise of Christ is plain beyond all doubt and cavil; the enactments of His Church will never be reversed in the Eternal Tribunal where He is the Judge of the quick and the dead.

This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastoral Letter Addressed to the Clergy and Laity of the Diocese of Saint John in the Right Reverend T. Casey, D. D., Bishop of St. John The evils of our times are great and manifold. To these times the words of the Psalmist may be applied with special emphasis, truths are decayed from among the children of men. - P.r. XXL, 2. With the disappearance of truths, faith has weakened, charity gone cold, and spiritual life flickers feebly in Society. It behooves us to recall the words of the Master in making us this gift of His infinite love as an unfailing means of support My flesh for the life of the world. -jo/m VI., 52. Indeed, to comprehend with a firm faith the excellence of the Holy Eucharist is to kn 'lw fully that work which, by the power of His love, god-made-man accomplished for the human race. The same faith that teaches us that He was born, lived, worked, suffered. And died for our salvation, assures us that He abides in this Holy Sacrament to communicate to us the inexhaustible treasures of the Redemption which He effected.

The Bishop of Exeter, and having also had the most pressing appeals from clergy as well as laity within it to resolve, if pos sible, the painful doubts, and remove the distressing perplexities, under which so many are labouring in consequence of it, I have deemed it advisable, in stead of replying separately to each communication, to address this Pastoral Letter 1 to you all.

This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastoral Letter Addressed to the Clergy and Laity of the Diocese of St. John, by the Right Reverend T. Casey, D.D., Bishop of St. John Hence God's goodness and love appear manifest in bequeath ing to us His Name as the symbol of Himself. We therefore find it called holy and terrible, glorious and gracious. It receives the homage that is due to God, as in numberless places we are invited to praise it, to bless it, to exalt it; Not to us, oh Lord, but to Thy Name be the glory forever. We are assured that our unfailing help is in the Name of the Lord; we are counselled to trust in it, and promised salvation on its invocation. Thus nothing can be conceived more sublime or more salutary than reverence for the Holy Name. It stands for us in the place of God; for we know His nature is invisible, and that, by reason of our weakness, it can be manifested to us only by imperfect symbols. He, therefore, appeared to Moses in the burning bush of Horeb, to John in the dove on the head of the Saviour; and to us the Holy Name is, in like manner.

Download or read book Pastoral Letter of His Grace the Archbishop of Toronto written by John Walsh and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastoral Letter of His Grace the Archbishop of Toronto: To the Clergy and Laity of the Archdiocese This one fact serves to show that a very large expenditure of money must necessarily be incurred in the education of young men for the holy ministry in this diocese. All who have at heart the good of our holy religion; all who desire the solid establishment of the holy Church of God in this free and happy country; all who value the salvation of immortal souls purchased by the precious blood of our Redeemer, will not hesitate to give largely of their worldly means to enable the Archbishop to educate a holy and efficient priesthood for this large and growing diocese. Local improvements, such as the building of churches, presbyteries, etc., are no reasons why the priest and people of each mission should not do their utmost to promote this sacred cause, and to do their duty by the Archbishop and the diocesan institutions. Our Fathers in the faith in Europe felt the pressure on their consciences of the great duty of helping to educate the priesthood; and hence they founded and endowed great and renowned Seminaries, in which young aspirants to the holy ministry have been trained in learning and piety. Our Irish forefathers, even in the midst of the persecutions of the penal times, out of the scanty means spared them by wholesale confiscations, founded and endowed on the continent of Europe renowned Seminaries, which are still flourishing, and which for several centuries failed not to send forth holy missionaries of the cross to preach the Gospel of Christ to their persecuted countrymen at home, to administer to them the consolations of our holy religion, and to keep the sacred fire of Catholic faith burning through long ages of darkness and storm, until the advent of these better and more peaceful times, when the light of our holy faith has expanded into the calm splendors of a perfect day.
