I tell him, too, that if our Howleys, Blomfields, and Sumners, imitate the conduct of Arundel, they will deserve the same contempt which Foxe heaped on Arundel. If they behave like Laud, they will deserve, not to lose their heads, but to be deposed from their high office by a national synod, amidst the universal execration of the people. Mr. Maitland may be certain that the people love the clergy of their church ; but they love more, far more than they love their clergy, the truth of Christ's g...ospel, and the con- stitutional liberty, both of which Rome opposed and hated.
At the conclusion of this letter, Mr. Maitland inquires whether Mr. Townsend will vindicate an expression of a man named Purvey, approved by Foxe, * that every Christian, as well as the priests and clergy, is permitted by the law of God to preach the gospel, privately to their neighbours ?' (page 141. ) I answer, that none but the bishop, the priest, and the deacon, who is set apart, ordained, and consecrated to the office, may teach or preach in the name of the Church, which can alone, according to Christ's own ordinance, give them authority to do so.
