The Privilege of Peter: And the Claims of the Roman Church Confronted with the Scriptures, the Councils, and the Testimony of the Pope Themselves (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Privilege of Peter: And the Claims of the Roman Church Confronted With the Scriptures, the Councils, and the Testimony of the Pope Themselves

Popes of almost every age have repudiated the fatal gift which Pius IX. Has so rashly extorted from the credulity of his followers in the nineteenth century. Upon the Petrine claim, even in its earlier and less advanced stages, the English Church and people, from the times of Edward the Confessor until those of Archbishop Warham, have held and taught but one clear, emphatic, and consistent doctrine. Here, at least, the Reformation was no sudden rebellion.
