The Episcopal Church claims TO po
sess Authority to decree rites or cen
monies, and in controversies of Faith.
that ia, to say what its members sht
believe it claims Authority as wiine
and keeper Of Holy Writ. The Ep
copal Church denounces the Catho
doctrine of Purgatory. The follow
is Catholic Prayer on this subject.
God, the Creator and Redeemer!

servants departed, full remission Of

In the Burial Service Of the Epix,
pal Church is the following Prayer
Almighty God, with whom do live b
spirits OF those who depart hence in ID
Lord ; and with whom the souls Of d
faithful, after they are delivered fra
the burden Of the flesh are in Joy O.
felicity we give thee hearty thanks Il
the good examples of all those thy m
wants. who, having finished their couu

And we beseech thee, that we, riM q
those uho are departed in the true Jai
ofthy holy name, may hare our perji

and soul, IN thy eternal and everlastiI
glory, through Jesus Christ our Lo

We ask if this is not slyly praying
the Dead z If is not, then we do
know what the words which we ha
italicised mean. If the Episcopal Chui
does not pray for the dead, why de-
she, while standing over the grave, OIL
plicate God to give bliss to those vi
hare departed
The Episcopal Church rejects 4
Catholic doctrine Of Absolution. II
Catholic Priests simply grant Abso
iion by Authority which they have
ceived. The Episcopal Church auth
iscs her Clergymen TO stand up, WI
the Congregation kneel, and pronou1
the following Adsoiution :---
Almighty God, our heavenly fa,f
who of his great mercy, hath promii
forgiveness of sins to all those v
with hearty repentance and true fa
turn unto him have mercy upon y
pardon aud deliver you from all y
sins, confirm and strengthen yoa in
goodness, and bring you to cverlas

This is an dissolution pronounced
the Episcopal CIergymcn by power
commandment derived from God
they say. We ask what is the vir
