She cannot attempt to interpret, with authority, the law of God to 14 the State, without assuming the right, to burn a heretic.
Rome, with her old iron inquisitorial keys, asks little more, than the authority to judge municipal laws, by her interpretation of the Scriptures. The Church may preach her doctrines, and sway the minds of men by her solemn and eternal truths. She may urge holiness, by faith, as the only passport to heaven, and warn the guilty of the wrath to come. She may adorn and fo...rtify herself, with wisdom, grace, and peace. Her members may, like other citizens, petition, remonstrate, speak, or write against whatever they consider wrong in legislative or executive, — but that she is, jure divino, not subject "to the powers that be," in cases within their jurisdiction, is a principle subversive of civil rights, and productive of an ambition, under zeal for God, for money, power, and misrule. " Is the position admis- sible," says an anonymous author, " that in our system of government, securing equally civil and religious liberty, the Church can have its spiritual laws, repug- nant to the municipal law, and by its judicial proceed- ings, and sentences, so far as it can make its spiritual power felt, invalidate that law ?
