Excerpt from The Old Doctrine of Faith Asserted in Opposition to Certain Modern Innovations

Mr. Erskine, Mr. Jones, Mr. Dore, and a 2many others: to the second class belong the fathers of the two established churches of these kingdoms, most of the puritan writers, and among the modems, Gre gory, Dwight, Scc. The following pas gage, quoted with approbation from the writings of Dr. Watts, by Dr. Gregory in his Letters, 18 so express on this point, that I shall insert it at length. With regard to this true faith, it has been justly observed that the words and from which continually return upon us the reading the Greek Testa ment, should be frequently translated by mm and trusting in God or Christ, especially where the preposition iv or '~c is added to it: and it should not be so often called belief or believing, for it is not such a me assent to the gospel of Christ as excites hope or trust in mercy.
