T SEPTEMBER, An Account of the BULL UNIGENITUS. THE glorious ftand which is made by the parlia ment of Paris in favour of liberty of confcience, cannot fail to be applauded by every true Briton. A They oppofe the vile attempts to manacle the confciences of the people, with a genius and spirit able to cope with the combined force of regal ambition, priestly cunning, 'and minifterial influence. That our readers may judge of the importance of this affair, we present them with the following brief hiftorical account B of that famous bull, or conftitution of the late pope, called Unigenitus *, which is but little understood, altho' it is the fource of all the difputes which have lately arifen between the clergy and parliaments of France. The defign of the pope's bull, published in the year 1713, was to condemn a great number of propofitions contained in a book, published by father Quefnell, intitled, "The New Teftament, with moral reflections upon every verfe, &c. or, An abridgement of the morality of the Gofpel, the Acts of the apoftles, the epiftles of St. Paul, the canonical epiftles, and the Revelations." Out of this book of father Quefnell's, the Pope culled 101 propofitions, and paffed a moft fevere cenfure upon them. Most of them express the common fentiment of those called Janfenifts, relating to the efficacy of divine grace, fome to the invalidity of unjust excommunications, and one to the practice of making oaths fo common in the church. I fhall only take notice of thofe propofitions that relate to the reading the holy fcriptures, which the pope, in this bull, has thought fit to condemn. Prop. 79. "It is profitable and neceffary in all times, all places, and for all forts of perfons, to ftudy and know the September, 1753. 1753. fpirit, piety, and myfteries of the holy fcriptures.' Prop. 80. "The reading of the holy feriptures is for all." Prop. 31. "The facred obfcurity of the word of God is no reason for the laity to difpenfe with the obligation of reading it." Prop. 82. "The Lord's day must be fanctified by chriftians with the reading of pious books, and above all of the holy fcriptures. It is mischievous to think of withdrawing a chriftian from the reading thereof." Prop. 83. "It is an illufion to perfuade one's felf, that the knowledge of the myfteries of religion must not be imparted to women by reading the facred books. The abuses of fcripture, and herefies, are not fprung from the fimplicity of women, but from the proud knowledge of men." Prop. 84. "To fnatch the New Teftament out of the hands of chriftians, or to keep it fhut to them, by depriving them Cof the means of understanding it, is to fhut unto them the mouth of Chrift." D E Prop. 85. "To forbid chriftians the reading the holy fcriptures, efpecially of the gofpel, is to forbid the ufe of light to the children of light, and to make them fuffer a fort of excommunication." On thefe propofitions, among the reft, the pope paffed his cenfure in the following words: "Wherefore having heard the judgment of the cardinals, and other divines aforefaid, which they delivered to us both in word and writing, and having implored the affiftance of divine light, by appointing private and alfo publick prayers for that end, we do by this our unalterable conftitution declare, condemn, and reject refpectively, all and every one of the propofitions aforefaid, as falfe, captious, founding ill in, and offenfive to pious ears, fcandalous, pernicious, rash, injurious to the church and her practice, contumelious not only to the church but Ddd 2 to From the first word of the bull, which begins thus: Unigenitus filius Dei plantavit vineam. |
