Romanism

Mm-hmm

... um, being who is going to unshackle them from the yoke of Romanism and free them and give them the rest of the, rest of the world as their, as their chosen, um, inheritance.

The, and the...

W- why wouldn't he, why, he has the same deceptive capabilities.

So does the civil law.

Romanism forbids divorce even on the ground of adultery.

Protestant admits it on that ground." I think one of the criticism we might make of Hodge is he's presenting a bit too rosy picture of how Christian everything was and how all the laws are Christian.

But he's trying to make the point that we have been founded by Christians, our institutions have been Christian.

She would dazzle him by gorgeous spectacles.

It is said that Romanism gained more in pomp and ritual during this trying period of the Dark Ages than throughout all her former history.

The result was she carried her point.

Once more, Rome laid her ambitious hand on the temporal power and allied with Chalman, aspired to rule the world through a civilization dominated by Christianity and permeated by the traditions and instincts of those sturdy barbarians.

Kant held, among other things, that two hours a day should be spent in the worship of collective humanity to be symbolized by some of the sex aimant.

On general principles, it is not quite clear which is the sex aimant, but as Kant proceeds to mention one's wife, mother, and daughter as fitting objects of religious adoration because they represent the present, past, and future of humanity, one is left to infer that he considered the female the loving sex and the ones to be worshipped, though he does not set forth who were to be objects of woman's own adoring worship.

In this ecclesiastical system, which Professor Huxley wittily denominates Romanism minus Christianity, Kant made himself high pontiff, and his inamorata, the widow of a galley slave, was chief saint.

This man was founder of the system which the agnostic prefers to the teachings of Jesus.

Like Marlborough and Wellington, he was known as the Great Duke.

No charge could be more effective against an opponent than that of Romanism, and many good men had to endure it.

The great Bishop Butler was exposed to it for complaining in his visitation charge to the clergy of Durham of the disgraceful neglect into which they had allowed their fabrics to fall.

The most deadly shaft leveled against John Wesley was Bishop Lavington of Exeter's book, The Enthusiasm of the Methodists and Papists Compared.

The reasonableness of Protestantism, whether Anglican or Nonconformist, was contrasted with the excited and hysterical manifestation of religious fervor in Popish countries.

And the fervor of the Wesleys and their followers was especially unpopular on this account.

The furious hatred of anything approaching Romanism is the key to much of the thought and feeling of the age.

But though undoubtedly an enthusiast, Wesley was far in advance of his age as regards toleration.

To secure worldly gains and honors, the church was led to seek the favor and support of the great men of earth, and having thus rejected Christ, she was induced to yield allegiance to the representative of Satan, the bishop of Rome.

It is one of the leading doctrines of Romanism that the pope is the visible head of the universal church of Christ, invested with supreme authority over bishops and pastors in all parts of the world.

More than this, the pope has been given the very titles of deity.

He has been styled Lord God the Pope and has been declared infallible.

Now that their leader was removed, the preachers labored with even greater zeal than before, and multitudes flocked to listen to their teachings.

Some of the nobility and even the wife of the king were among the converts.

In many places there was a marked reform in the manners of the people, and the idolatrous symbols of Romanism were removed from the churches.

But soon the pitiless storm of persecution burst upon those who had dared to accept the Bible as their guide.
