Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays on the Rise and Progress of the Christian Religion in the West of Europe: From the Reign of Tiberius to the End of the Council of Trent
Another work of far less bulk than that of Dean Milman's is called St. Paul and Protestantism,' written by Mr. Matthew Arnold. The object of the author is to give a view of St. Paul's teaching very different from that of the Calvinists, but, as it appears to me, far more in accordance with the. Real doctrine of St. Paul than that which persons who have failed to comprehend his real intentions have attributed to him. The error of Mr. Arnold appears to me, not that he has failed to comprehend St. Paul's meaning, but that he has omitted to notice the political circumstances, and the violence of the conflict in which the Puritans of England appeared as the aggressors, when they were in reality fighting against a revival of Popery, and the spiritual tyranny of Archbishop Laud.
Among Roman Catholic writers, Dr. Newman has greatly distinguishedhimself. His latest work. 'the Grammar of Assent,' deserves to be deeply studied. Of those who, on the other side, have taken a very large and friendly View of the Reformation, there is no work more deserving of attention than the History of the Rise and Influence of Rationalism in Europe,' by Mr. Lecky. Mr. Lecky has given a favourable view of the opinions originally espoused by Origen.
