Matthew 23:9
_ _ And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven, etc. — To construe these injunctions into a condemnation of every title by which Church rulers may be distinguished from the flock which they rule, is virtually to condemn that rule itself; and accordingly the same persons do both — but against the whole strain of the New Testament and sound Christian judgment.

(On the use of the word “Christ” here, see on Matthew 1:1). |
