ONLINE: Of Schism

Electronic Set B

Plot

The charge of schism was repeatedly brought against those who sought to reform the Church according to Scripture. Owen refrains from all recrimination, and instead examines the scriptural import of the term ‘schism’, proving that it denotes, not a rupture of ecclesiastical communion, but causeless divisions with the pale of the church.
