But throughout their long and persistent non-conformity, for more than two years, they constantly and cheerfully acknowledged the authority of the organic act, and of the laws of Congress, and even counseled and endured every forced submission to the bogus laws. Mrs. "Statutes at Large," Vol. They were destined to have no lack of provocation.
And thereafter, by a wicked act of the council of Glasgow, more than three hundred ministers were illegally thrust from their charges, for their non-conformity, in discountenancing a diocesan meeting, or synod, appointed by the archbishop of Glasgow, and not observing the anniversary thanksgiving, May 29th, enjoined by the parliament.
The strength which marked the divergence was due neither to ambition nor to jealousy, but to the strength of mind and character which marked the leaders of the minority. Thomas Hooker and Samuel Stone were of Emmanuel College, Cambridge. Hooker began to preach at Chelmsford in 1626, and was silenced for non-conformity in 1629.
It would have been difficult, however, to make that very clear to Philip's comprehension, because, if men, women, and children, were scourged with rods, imprisoned and hanged, if they refused to conform publicly to a ceremony at which their consciences revolted-unless they had money enough to purchase non-conformity it seemed to be the practice to inquire very effectively into their consciences.
"He says: 'But be ye transformed by the renewing of your minds. That elucidates and gives force to what goes before." "So I think, clearly upsetting your position. The apostle evidently has reference to a deeper work than mere external non-conformity in regard to the cut of the coat, or the fashion of the dress.
"Non-conformity, hinnie," sighed Mause, "is the name that thae warldly men gie us." "Weel, aweel we'll hae to gang to a far country, maybe twall or fifteen miles aff. I could be a dragoon, nae doubt, for I can ride and play wi' the broadsword a bit, but ye wad be roaring about your blessing and your grey hairs."
How strange that pious men should have been prone to punish their fellows for non-conformity in an outward sign. They themselves were suffering inconceivable miseries under acts of uniformity in rites and ceremonies. Ed. 'An implicit faith'; faith in things without inquiry, or in things not expressed. Ed. Ed.
Progress of non-conformity. A Parliament called. Strafford appointed commander-in-chief. Meeting of Parliament. The king's speech. Address of the lord keeper. Grievances. Messages. Parliament dissolved. The Scots cross the borders and invade England. March of the Scots. The king goes to York. Defeat of the English. Perplexities and dangers. The king calls a council of peers.
Yet in all his dealings with the art-products of mankind he manifests the same curious dryness and mechanical literality of judgment a dryness increased by pride in his non-conformity. Turner's paintings he finds untrue, in that the earth-region is habitually as bright in tone as the air-region. Moreover, Turner scatters his detail too evenly. In Greek statues the hair is falsely treated.
Why judgeth he that we are not scandalised through weakness, but through malice and contumacy? So he giveth it forth both in this place and elsewhere. Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? But, 4. If we were malicious in offending at the ceremonies as things unlawful, and in urging of non-conformity as necessary, should they therefore contemn our being scandalised?
