Synopsis
Excerpt from New Legislation for the Church, Is It Needed?: A Letter to His Grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury and Primate of All England
Church party of that day against the laxity of some of the more political Bishops: but it was evidently a wrongprinciple that was assumed, and led, (perhaps most Providentially,) to the suppression of the action of Convocation in 1717. Had the Lower House succeeded in asserting a jurisdiction for itself against the Bishops, a Presbyterian constitution of our Church must logically have followed.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book considers proposals to reform convocation by offering a critical examination of its historical significance as a Sacred Synod of the Province, while also being an ancient adjunct of the British Parliament. The author argues that as a provincial Synod alone does it have charge of spiritual matters, and as a Constitutional body alone has it to do what is constitutionally assigned to it. They emphasize the historically mixed kind of assembly it has been, with laymen and even women, and that proctors of the Clergy are in reality appointed only by the Bishop, in the ultimate resort; the Bishop alone giving Jurisdiction Which indeed he cannot abandon While he is Bishop. Thus, the present notion of some, that our Convocation should be so Reformed as to represent general religious opinion, and then discuss all points as in a religious Parliament, is as unhistorical as it is uncatholic and unspiritual. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and role of convocation, and its insights will be of particular interest to those involved in current debates about its reform.
