Book excerpt: Excerpt from Considerations on the Ecclesiastical Courts and Clergy Discipline Eastward, or other position, a reredos, even a credence table, or a vestment. It is but in common sense that a resort in all such cases should be had to a tribunal, not only competent as to knowledge or ability, but in the direction of the mind to such peculiar subjects and, let any miscon strue me as they may, a distinctive Church character should be attached. How this proposition can be denied by Lawyers, with the Courts of Chancery, and all their exceptional power before us, I do not understand; I know there is a great desire with many of the legal profession to reduce all to one system but I have always believed, and still do believe, that our varieties of system, comprehending every possible case and circumstance, have been a just subject, I will not say of boast, but of thankfulness. Lawyers themselves, at least those who have contemplated a course advantageous both to themselves and to the public, have directed their principle and method of education with the more special bearing on the course most suited to their presumed bent and capacity and thus, whatever legal question may have arisen, has always been met by a reliable answer. My view of the Public Worship Regulation Act may be learnt by a reference to the accompanying paper. I will only say here that I object to it, and am discontented with it, as partial in its proposed operation, and misunderstanding in its assump tions it deals with but one set of offences, or alleged offences, when such a tribunal ought not to have been constituted without a full development of its purpose, actual and prospective it seems to be not only an experiment in law, but a drifting on unknown waters. It is also chargeable with leading, as it stands, to no final result, except where an appeal is permitted I mean where decisions are to rest with the Bishops. If the practice of appeals from interlocutory decrees in the Consistory Courts were abolished, and in all cases a simple declaration with counts were enabled, vexatious and delaying pleas, or allegations would be avoided, there being but one appeal, and that on points of law, in application.

Download or read book Ecclesiastical Law Clergy and Laity written by Neil Patterson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discipline in an ecclesiastical context can be defined as the power of a church to maintain order among its members on issues of morals or doctrine. This book presents a scholarly engagement with the way in which legal discipline has evolved within the Church of England since 1688. It explores how the Church of England, unusually among Christian churches, has come to be without means of effective legal discipline in matters of controversy, whether liturgical, doctrinal, or moral. The author excludes matters of blatant scandal to focus on issues where discipline has been attempted in controversial matters, focussing on particular cases. The book makes connections between law, the state of the Church, and the underlying theology of justice and freedom. At a time when doctrinal controversy is widespread across all Christian traditions, it is argued that the Church of England has an inheritance here in need of cherishing and sharing with the universal Church. The book will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers in the areas of law and religion, and ecclesiastical history. .

Excerpt: ... and no Episcopalian will question the declaration so confidently made by St. Ignatius, that this power was lodged with the Bishops of the Church. To them was intrusted separation from or admission to the Christian Communion; they kept the roll of the faithful, and could diminish or augment it. Thus we read of Marcion, as ejected from the Church's Communion by his father, the Bishop of Sinope, and other instances could be produced in early time were their accumulation needful. This rule of the Bishops is called by St. Cyprian " the sublime and divine power of governing the Church," and their right of ejecting men from its Communion he calls, " that spiritual sword, whereby they slay the proud and contumacious."f The same principle appears in all the writings of that age. The Council of Laodicea calls their authority an "Empire," and the 47th Canon so called of the Apostles enjoins the deposition of a Clergyman who unjustly accuses his Bishop, because it is written, "Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people." In like manner does Origen mention "Senators and rulers over God's Church," and St. Chrysostom, in his Homily (xv.) on the 7th Chapter of the 2nd Epistle to the Corinthians, enters at large into the nature of their power. "There are two kinds of authority, by one whereof men rule over people and cities, and sustain the framework of civil society. To this St. Paul referred when he said, 'Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers, for there is no power but of God, the powers that be are ordained Cyprian Ep. ad Cornel, lix. j Id. iv. of God.' But there is a second power higher than the political one, of which St. Paul said, ' Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves, for they watch for your souls as...

Download or read book The Legal History of the Church of England written by Norman Doe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-22 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the principal legal landmarks in the evolution of the law of the established Church of England from the Reformation to the present day. It explores the foundations of ecclesiastical law and considers its crucial role in the development of the Church of England over the centuries. The law has often been the site of major political and theological controversies, within and outside the church, including the Reformation itself, the English civil war, the Restoration and rise of religious toleration, the impact of the industrial revolution, the ritualist disputes of the 19th century, and the rise of secularisation in the twentieth. The book examines key statutes, canons, case-law, and other instruments in fields such as church governance and ministry, doctrine and liturgy, rites of passage (from baptism to burial) and church property. Each chapter studies a broadly 50-year period, analysing it in terms of continuity and change, explaining the laws by reference to politics and theology, and evaluating the significance of the legal landmarks for the development of church law and its place in wider English society.
