A Dissenting Minister’s Treatise on Simony
Credible word reaches London that a neighbouring dissenting minister, famed for learning and probity, is drafting a treatise asserting that under scripture no person can be guilty of simony. It argues Magus Simon only attempted to buy power, not actually purchase miracles, and that simony is misdefined as buying church livings. The piece notes historical popery aura and contrasts it with contemporary church practices.
