Excerpt from An Original Draught of the Primitive Church: In Answer to a Discourse Entituled, an Enquiry Into the Constitution, Discipline, Unity and Worship, of the Primitive Church, That Flourished Within the First Three Hundred Years After Christ Every one too well knows, of what a large and extensive nature this unhappy subject is, and that the controversial books about it are sadly numerous, and full of different schemes and arguments, according to the genius of sects, and times, and persons; many of which might have fallen in with several parts of this dis course, had I been inclined to 'dispute, ' as I bless God I am not, but I have kept close to the single treatise before me, and that for two rea sons especially. First, Because I heard from many hands, that the less learned, and more prejudiced, adversa ries of the 'truly primitive Church of England, ' have made their boasts of it, and from its not being answered yet, have proclaimed it an nu answerable' vindication of their separation from her.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
