To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What con- stitutes the assembly a council, and renders its acts legal and binding? Then how does the council put down heresy by tlie authority of Holy Writ? By simply asserting the authority of Holy Writ, or detinii^ and applying that authority to the question before it? Does it put its own construction on Holy Writ, and condemn that put upon it by heretics ? or Digitized by LjOOQIC 392 does it recognize the right of every one to construe the Scriptures for himself, in hie own way ? If Mr. Derb...y says the former, he rejects his Protestantism ; if the latter, he makes the action of the council a farce, for all heretics recognize, or profess to recognize, the authority of Holy Writ as they understand it, as General Jackson said of the constitution. The dispute is as to what Holy Writ really teaches on a given question. Mr. Derby may, though it is hardly supposable, believe that Holy Writ authorizes his Protestantism. We believe with all our soul that it does no such thing, but condemns it Which of us is the heretic?
