Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Works
When the honour of the most high God and Saviour Jesus Christ is concerned, it is the incumbent duty of every christian to make use of those talents, which the Lord, in his abundant mercy and loving kindness, hath bestowed upon him, for the discovery and propagation of truth, and the obliteration of error. Under these influences of mind, I have been induced to publish the following pages, that the friends of righteousness and true holiness may fairly investigate these facts, which I conceive incontrovertible, being founded on that standard of truth, the Bible. I have arranged the subject under different heads, to simplify it as much as possible, requesting the reader to judge impartially, laying aside all prejudice imbibed by hearsay. We cannot expect to find the truth, and be established therein, without diligence and fervent prayer. The redemption of the world, by the power of God in Christ Jesus, is of all other subjects the most sublime, and the least regarded. The times are come for the accomplishing the fulness of the Gentiles, and the calling of the Jews: darkness pervades the minds of the people, or they certainly would see the signs of the times, so clearly set forth in Luke xxi. - Christ hath sent the Spirit of Truth, as he promised, to shew us the mind and will of God: that there may be found a willing people in the day of his power.
