Pàgina 57 - Enlarging our creed, and making more fundamentals than ever God made. 2. Composing and so imposing our creeds and confessions in our own words and phrases.
Pàgina 9 - Christians had been more one than they are. Had not the devil turned orthodox, he had not made so many true Christians heretics, as Epiphanius and Austin have enrolled in the black list.

Pàgina 56 - Expulsion, or deposall of their •officers, and members, upon due cause, with free exercise of the Discipline and Censures of Christ according to the rules of his word.
Pàgina 7 - Jesus in wisdom and tender mercy, establisheth a law of grace, and rule of life, pure and perfect, but simple and plain ; laying the condition of man's salvation more in the honesty of the believing heart, than in the strength of wit, and subtlety of a knowing head. He comprised the truths which were of necessity to salvation in a narrow room : so that the Christian faith was a matter of great plainness and simplicity. As long as Christians were such and held to this, the Gospel rode in triumph through...
Pàgina 6 - The right of conscience and of private judgment is unalienable ; and it is truly the interest of all mankind to unite themselves into one body, for the liberty, free exercise and unmolested enjoyment of this right, especially in religion. Not all the difference of sentiment, not all the erroneous opinions that have yet been started...
