Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

viii, 88 p.; 18.5 cm. `If we ask what was the real reason for the Nonjuring bishops' attitude, I think we are bound to say that they misunderstood the proper nature of an oath of allegiance. To them it was a personal pledge and therefore remained in force so long as the individual to whom it was made continued to live. It was the doctrine of divine right that made the thing so absolute. The hereditary monarch was still King, behave he never so badly. That meant that you could have no relief from your oath. To-day we assume the existence of a higher authority than that of the King. Both in Church and State we recognize a qualification in a pledged obedience. It is `canonical,' that is to say according to the canons or rules of the game. If the bride pledges obedience to the bridegroom, it does not imply that she will put her head into the fire if he orders her to do so. Her obedience is subject to the natural and spiritual law of marriage. Similarly we promise obedience to our superiors only "in all things lawful and honest." Or we promise allegience to the King, his heirs and successors "according to law." If the oath could have been interpreted by the Nonjurors in that spirit there would probably have been no schism. The odd thing is that nobody seems to have thought that way. All the arguments put up by the Government and by the `swearing church' showed not how the oath ought to be interpreted but how it might be disregarded. And that was a thing which the Nonjurors' conscience would not allow them to do.' (p. 18 f.) VG orig. green cloth under orange boards in edgeworn dj.
