Excerpt from Sketch of the Rise of the Religious Society of Friends: Their Doctrines and Discipline

Two centuries have passed away since the first members of the Society of Friends believed themselves called upon to bear a conspicuous testimony by deed as well as word to the purity and spirituality of the Christian religion. Reverently accepting the doctrines of Christ and His apostles in their comprehensive fulness as recorded in the New Testament, they felt that they could not rest in a mere profession even of these blessed truths. Their souls longed for the possession of the substance, even reconciliation with the Father, and communion with Him by His own Spirit through the one living Saviour, Advocate, and Intercessor for us, Christ Jesus. That which they sought was not to be found in outward observances. Their spiritual necessities required spiritual refreshments. The ancient sacrifices and ceremonies under the Law, though expressly instituted by Divine authority, were given but for a season, to be fulfilled and ended by Christ. The new covenant of life and salvation was not in these.
