founded? That the doctrines and discipline of the Church are founded on the Bible we are proud to acknowledge, and ready to demonstrate; but that Independency, Quakerism, Antinomianism, and Unitarianism are also referred to by their several teachers to the same source, no one would attempt to deny. When, therefore, by our co-operation, we enable these sectaries to distribute the Holy Scriptures to a vast extent, we enable them to undermine the Established Church, by the means of those very Scriptures on which it is founded. The sectary gains an influence over the poor, by the opportunities afforded him by this Society. And every churchman who subscribes his guinea to it, must suffer his subscription to go to promote the views of the dissenter, whatever they may be, as well as his own: it must go towards the furtherance of whatever plan that Society may suggest. Some persons have attempted to apologize for their belonging to this Society, by saying, that their object was to watch over and prevent any bad consequences which might otherwise happen from it. But surely this is a most senseless notion; that, because it is a Society which may be productive of much mischief, they will add to the means which will promote it. Nature will be nature; and a man, conscientiously attached to his religion, will, if means are afforded him, find opportunities of employing them towards the accomplishment of his purpose, though ever so much watched. It therefore plainly appears, that the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge is far preferable to churchmen for the distribution of the Bible than the British and Foreign Bible Society; not only from the great advantages before mentioned, but because much danger to the Church Establishment may be incurred by the latter, but cannot by the former.
