THE FINAL COLLAPSE OF THE PAPAL SUCCESSION. It has been sufficiently shown, that down to the pontificate of Gregory the Great it had proved impossible for the Popes to establish even so much as legal prescription in the very West itself for their asserted sovereignty over Christendom; while the whole tenor of Church history, specially as regards the General Councils, proves to demonstration that they could never get their possession of a Divine and imprescriptible charter of privilege acknowledged anywhere by entire Churches, persistently as they pressed it from the time of Leo the Great, and often as they seemed on the point of success. But the Papacy which Gregory bequeathed to his successors was a far more powerful factor in Christendom than that which he inherited had been. From the seventh till the fifteenth century Rome was as truly the centre of European policy in the civil, as well as in the religious, sphere as it had been when still the seat of the empire of the Cassars; and the newer theory of its right to govern the nations of the world, or at the least to be looked up to by them as the most august and authoritative spot upon the earth, bade fair to be as influential as that memory of universal rule which went for so much in generating the original sovereign claim of the Pope, less as the alleged successor of St. Peter than as the chief personage in the city acknowledged as conqueror and capital of the world. It is unnecessary to follow the course of the fortunes ot the Roman See henceforth in the almost unbroken fashion required for the earlier stages of this inquiry. It will suffice to state broadly that the authority of the Popes grew steadily greater as it became more concentrated in the West, and as...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I appear before the public with a new edition of my Church History, I feel more than ever the difficulty and responsibility of a task which is well worthy to occupy the whole time and strength of a long life, and which carries in it its own rich reward. The true historian of Christianity is yet to come. But short as I have fallen of my own ideal, I have done my best, and shall rejoice if my efforts stimulate others to better and more enduring work. History should be written from the original sources of friend and foe, in the spirit of truth and love, "sine ira et studio," "with malice towards none, and charity for all," in clear, fresh, vigorous style, under the guidance of the twin parables of the mustard seed and leaven, as a book of life for instruction, correction, encouragement, as the best exposition and vindication of Christianity. The great and good Neander, "the father of Church History" first an Israelite without guile hoping for the Messiah, then a Platonist longing for the realization of his ideal of righteousness, last a Christian in head and heart made such a history his life-work, but before reaching the Reformation he was interrupted by sickness, and said to his faithful sister: "Hannchen, I am weary; let us go home; good night!" And thus he fell gently asleep, like a child, to awake in the land where all problems of history are solved. When, after a long interruption caused by a change of professional duties and literary labors, I returned to the favorite studies of my youth, I felt the necessity, before continuing the History to more recent times, of subjecting the first volume to a thorough revision, in order to bring it up to the present state of investigation. We live in a restless and stirring age of discovery, criticism, and reconstruction. During the thirty years which have elapsed since the publication of my separate "History of the Apostolic Church," there has been an incessant activity in this field, not only in Germany, the great workshopof critical research, but in all other Protestant countries. Almost every inch of ground has been disputed and defended with a degree of learning, acumen, and skill such as were never spent before on the solution of historical problems.
