C.H. Spurgeon wrote:
War With The Papacy!
"We must fight the Lord's battles against this giant error,whichever shape it takes, and so must we do with every error that pollutes the Church."...
We must have no truce, no treaty with Rome. War! War to the knife with her! Peace there cannot be. She cannot have peace with us--we cannot have peace with her. She hates the true Church and we can only say that the hatred is reciprocated. We would not lay a hand upon her priests; we would not touch a hair of their heads. Let them be free--but their doctrine we would destroy from the face of the earth [q.v. The Scandal of the Catholic Priesthood ] as the doctrine of devils. So let it perish,
O God, and let that evil thing become as the fat of lambs. Into smoke let it consume--yes,into smoke let it consume away!...
