This little work is intended only as a Primer. Hence the matters discussed have to be treated very briefly, and therefore necessarily, to some extent, inadequately. The subject has been as far as possible brought up to date, although as it was necessary to bring the work into an assigned number of pages, it was impossible to attempt to trace the opinions of the Christian Fathers. The writer trusts that this little work may be found useful in the study of a subject of such vital importance at the present day. Persons inclined to go further may usefully read Dr. Blakeney's Manual of the Romish Controversy, originally published in 1851, the last edition of which has been issued since 1870. Dr. R. F. Littledale's Plain Reasons Against Joining the Church of Rome (S.P.C.K. 1880) is also of great importance, though owing to his High Church views many points are omitted in his work on which Protestants need information. Dr. Salmon's Infallibility of the Church is one of the most recent and most valuable contributions to the literature of the subject. The writer, in citing texts of Scripture, has noted the fact that some passages of our Authorized Version (A.V.) have been modified in the Revised Version (R.V.) of the English Bible. The Douay Version, the English translation of the Latin Vulgate accredited by Roman Catholic authorities, has been always borne in mind, and in proof passages where any real difference exists notice has been called to its renderings. The illustrations given in the work are all derived from Roman Catholic sources. It is to be hoped the indexes appended may be sufficient for ordinary use.
