Treatise on Justification, Vol. 2: Or, the Disputatio De Justitia Habituali Et Actuali
Excerpt from Treatise on Justification, Vol. 2: Or, the Disputatio De Justitia Habituali Et Actuali
As to the matter in question z - Whoever has gone deep into the controversy concerning justification, knows that the real dif ference often hinges upon the use of peculiar terms or modes of ex pression, carefully selected by the one party, and as carefully avoided by the other. Just as it was with the Arian controversy, where the introduction or omission of an mm in the Creed involved systems diametrically opposed' to each other. F or instance Mr. Perceval, inbie book on the Roman Schism, and the whole race of Bomanizers, maintain, that there is really no great difl'er ence between the two Churches on this great doctrine, because very similar language is often used in the formularies of both. So also on the same subject said the Bishop of St. David's, in his Charge, three years ago, with respect to the Tractarians and faithful members of the Church of England. But both Churches, and the most serious learned theologians, know, that the case is quite other wise, and that the difl'erence afl'ects the whole question of practical divinity.
