LET. X.
" Even admitting, (what Ave cannot admit, for we know the contrary, ) that the question whe- ther Episcopacy was, in fact, the primitive con- stitutioQ of the Church, were decided in favour of our Episcopal brethren ; still another ques- tion remains, viz. Is a compliance with that con- stitution so unalterably and indispensably binding; on the Church, that there can be no Church, no ministry, no ordinances, without it ? These ques- tions are totally distinct, and never to be con- found...ed. Yet Dr. Bowden and Mr. Hoiv almost uniformly confound them ; and seem to think that if the former question be answered in the affirma- tive, the latter must of course be answered in a similar manner. In a few instances, indeed, they admit the distinction to which I allude, and assert, that their only object is to establish the Apostolical institution of Episcopacy, without un- dertaking to pronounce on the consequences of rejecting it. But it is evid:='nt that, for the most part, they entirely lose sight of this distinction, an 1 write as if the establishment of the fact, that prelacy existed in the primitive Church, must ef- fectually destroy the character of all Churches not found in possession of that form of govern- ment.
