(p. 3) The anti-vestment party `made the minimal conformity, accepted the church structure as it was established, and worked for reform through preaching and teaching, while urging obedience to authority upon their followers.' Most of the passive-resistance party `were in sympathy with proposals then current for eliminating the hierarchical structure of the church, and for either modifying or abolishing the episcopate and the ecclesiastical court system.' The Presbyterian party `demanded far-reaching structural changes in the church, in its administration and finances, and in the relation between church and state, as well as in doctrine and liturgy.'
