While believers were agreed among themselves and the body was one, it had no need to declare itself as a church. It was only when believers were split up into opposing parties…seemed necessary to each party to confirm their own truth by ascribing to themselves infallibility… one church only arose when there were two sides…called the other side heresy, and recognized their own side as the only infallible church

With certain Scriptural commands (ie non-resistance) the church claims “the man who transgresses any command..does not cease to be a Christian if he hold the true faith…reducing a direct conscious denial of a command to a casual breach…we must not understand it too literally, but that there are conditions & circumstances in which we must do the direct opposite.” Not applied to all commands, hypocrisy emerges

Finished Chapter 1
"But the fate of Garrison, still more of Ballou, in being completely unrecognized in spite of fifty years of obstinate and persistent work in the same direction, confirmed me in the idea that there exists a kind of tacit but steadfast conspiracy of silence about all such efforts" (pg. 17)
In this can be seen a piercing truth, verifiable even now, or an assured paranoia. I'm inclined to the former
