It mufi be confefl'ed, that by the weaknefia and tndifcretion of bufy (or, at heft, of well-meaning) people, as well as by the malice of thofe who are enemies to all revealed religion, and are not con tent to poll'ef's their own infidelity in filence, without communicating it to the difiurbance of mankind I fay,' by thcfe means, it mull: be confefl'ed, that the doctrine of the Trinity hath fufl'ered very much, and made Chril'tianity fuflcer along with it. For thefe two things mull be granted Firli, That men of wicked lives would be very glad there were no truth in Chriftia'ni'ty at all; and, fecondly, If they can pick out any one fingle article in the Chrifiian religion which appears not agreeable to their own corrupted reafon, or to the arguments of thofe bad people who follow the trade of feducing Others, the prefently conclude, that the truth of the whole go pel mufi fink along with that one article. Which is jufi as wife, as if a man {hould fay, be caufe he diflikes one law of his country, he will therefore obferve no law at all and yet that one law may be very reafonable in itfel-f, although he does not allow it, or does not know the reafon of the lawgivers.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of sermons by Jonathan Swift, an Irish writer and clergyman best known for his satirical prose. The sermons offer a glimpse into Swiftâs religious beliefs and his views on morality and human nature. He argues that true virtue can only be found in a conscience guided by religion and that principles such as moral honesty and honor are insufficient guides for ethical behavior. Swift explores the weaknesses and limitations of these false principles, providing insightful and thought-provoking commentary on the nature of morality and the importance of religious faith in shaping human conduct. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
