Rev J E Smith defends French church state clash stance
Grace Methodist pastor Rev J E Smith preached on France and the Catholic Church versus the republic. He argued the church must bow to the state in temporal matters while the church seeks independence in spiritual affairs, tracing this to Napoleonic accords and centuries of conflict. He claimed Protestant churches accepted state rules, while Catholics seek parity and continued possession of church property under government oversight.
