Book Description
Excerpt from Conscience and Faith: La Conscience Et La Foi, Five Lectures His son Athanase grew up under his eye, and devoted himself with enthusiasm to the defence of the same principles; Following in his father's foot steps, he soon emancipated himself from dogmatic Calvinism, and acquired a breadth of disposition and a liberality of mind which secured him against the attractions of the so-called Methodist orthodoxy, which was already very active among the Protestant communities of France. And here we must pause to consider the origin of the conflict which at the present moment threatens French Protestantism with an irreconcilable schism. It is difficult for Englishmen to form a clear idea of it, not because the religious ideas involved are unfamiliar, but because the ecclesiastical sentiments called into play are quite distinct from their own.
