The Bible;
The Blessed Virgin.
All these creatures ought, according to the doctrines taught commonly and without censure in the Roman communion, to receive the very worship paid to God.
II. Divine honours are practically offered to the Virgin and to all the saints and angels. It has been repeatedly and clearly shown, that they are addressed in exactly the same terms in which we ought to address God; that the same sort of confidence is expressed in their power; that they are acknowledged to be the authors of grace and salvation. These idolatries are generally practised without opposition or censure.
III. The Virgin is blasphemously asserted to be superior to God the Son, and to command him. She is represented as the source of all grace, while believers are taught to look on Jesus with dread. The work of redemption is said to be divided between her and our Lord.
IV. It is maintained that justification leaves the sinner subject to the wrath and vengeance of God.
V. That the temporal afflictions of the righteous are caused by the wrath of an angry God.
VI. That the righteous suffer the tortures of hell-fire after death.
VII. That the sacrifice of Christ on the cross is repeated or continued in the eucharist.
These and other errors contrary to faith are inculcated within the communion of the Roman Church, without censure or open opposition.—Palmer.
