THE IDEAL OF THE ENGLISH CHURCH. A SKETCH. BY THE REV. R. MONTGOMERY, M.A. AUTHOR OF "LUTHER," "THE GOSPEL BEFORE THE AGE," ETC. ETC. "There is ONE BODY and ONE Spirit.”—Eph. iv. LONDON: SMITH, ELDER AND CO., 65, CORNHILL. INTRODUCTORY NOTE. THE following pages are, in part, derived from two of the Author's Theological Works, which are nearly out of print. The particular reasons for their publication need not be intruded on the reader. Let it suffice to say that, in the opinion of some competent judges, they contain the germs of those distinctive Principles, and the seeds of those glorious Doctrines, which the Reformed Church of England in the IDEAL of her own Constitution professes to maintain, and by the due ascendency of which over the minds and morals of her children, her loyal adherence unto Christ will be best understood. |
