    This paper proposes that the Anglican belief which Edmund Burke explains and vindicates in Reflections on the Revolution in France consists of two principles based on the religious ‘instruction’ and ‘consolation’, whose ideas can be found in his ecclesiology. One principle obliges man or woman to perform their role appointed by their nature. The performance is facilitated by the fear that they would be punished in the future state unless they played their role. The other one commands them to improve their nature whose perfection is achieved by imitating God's perfections. The improvement of their nature is motivated by the hope that its perfection will lead them to their salvation.
