Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Polity: Or, What Is an Apostolic Church?; A Semi-Centennial Discourse, Delivered May 12, 1875, Before the Rhode Island Baptist State Convention The nineteenth century presents to the world the spectacle of church government in three forms. Borrowing from the vocabulary of the state, we may call them the monarchical, the aristocratic, and the democratic or republican. The Episcopal form of government is monarchical, specimens of which may be seen in the Roman Catholic Church, the Greek Church, the Church of England, and modified by union with an aristocratic element, in the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States and the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Presbyterian form of government is aristocratic, softened by some infusion of the popular element. The popular form is represented in the Congregationalists, the Wesleyan Methodists, and the Baptists - most thoroughly by the Baptists. These existing forms of church government is what we mean by the church polity of the nineteenth century. New Testament church polity covers only the apostolic period, and by this the church polity of the nineteenth century, and of all the intervening centuries, must be tried. What I propose to do, then, is this: to break whatever connection may be alleged to exist between the church polity of the present and the church polity of the apostolic age, and thus avoid transferring to the first century what we see in the nineteenth. To this method there ought to be no objection. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Apostolic Church: Which Is It?; An Inquiry at the Oracles of God as to Whether Any Existing Form of Church Government Is of Divine Right Since the last edition of this little Treatise was published in Ireland, an authorized abridgement, which omitted various passages and the whole of Chapter IV., was published in London, and was widely circulated in England. This abridgement was entitled "An Inquiry into the Scriptural Form of Church Government," and was specially adapted for English readers. The present edition is unabridged. The local allusions are understood in Ireland, and the sentiments of Chapter IV. are as applicable to our circumstances at present as they were in 1856. In view of it being stereotyped, the whole work has been again revised, and has received some alterations is at the hand of the Author. He ventures to cherish the hope that, in this its permanent form, it may still continue to be of some service to the Truth. Some Ministers have already used it as a text-book in the Bible class, and in the higher forms of the Sabbath-school, the Author trusts not without profit.
