UNITY OF CHRISTENDOM
ARCHBISHOP BOURNE’S CLAIM. [BY TEbEGU.VPjr—TEH I’P.KSS ASSOCIATION.]
LONDON', -March 3. Archbishop Bourne, in a Lenten pastoral referring to the I'nity of the Churches, says: “Our attitude is one uf intense sympathy, manifested m
constant and fervent prayer for the restoration of England to the l nit\ of Christendom. Unfortunately. seme are not prepared to give us credit for this sympathetic attitude. Vie speak, commonly of churches, but realK there is only one church, for the "truth is there is no church except the Holt Apostolic Church, with its centre o! authority in the See of Bourn, which even claims to realise the promises which Christ made for his Church. Ate believe that to tho Roman Catholic Church, both in its episcopal hierarchy us a whole and in its visible head personally. there is granted an inlaUihilit.v whereby it lias the Divine as.-ui-•nice of protection against error d and when it proclaims any doctrine that is to l»c held as part of the faith revealed by Christ. This is the funchupenta doctrine of the Catholic Church. All discussions arc mere waste lifetime mtil this doctrine is aeceptod.”
