Excerpt from Sincere Christian's Answer: To the Appeal to the Common Sense of All Christian People, Concerning an Important Point of Doctrine, Imposed Upon Their Consciences, by the Authority of Church Government; And in Particular, to the Members of the Church of England; In a Letter to the App
An Appeal to the Common Sense of all Christian People, naturally supposes, that all Christian People are competent Judges of the Subject Matter of such Appeal: And that in the managing and carrying it on, Nothing is produced by Way of Evidence, but what is strictly adapted and made level to their Understandings: But, with regard to the Piece, to which the following Sheets are intended for an Answer, the Appellant hath man festly exceeded the Bounds, to which he solemnly professed to confine his Appeal. The plain translated Text of Scripture, which only his Judges can be supposed, to understand, he hath frequently deviated form. He hath been obliged, unavoidably indeed, to refer to the original Text in many Instances. He hath often produced the Authority of the Learned, in Support of his Corrections of the vulgar Translation; and, as often advanced his own Comments and Paraphrases; which his Judges are inplicitly to assent to upon his bare Word.
It is evident then, that the Subject-Matter of his Appeal is not simply cognizable by those, to whom he hath appealed.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical debate regarding the nature of Christ within the Christian trinity. The author contends that the traditional view of Christ as a lesser God to the Father is not supported by scripture and argues that the terms "God" and "Lord" when used singularly often refer to the three persons of the trinity: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The author further argues that the unity of God as expressed in scripture is a unity of agency rather than a unity of personhood. The author supports this position by providing a detailed examination of key biblical passages and by arguing that the traditional view of Christ's deity leads to contradictions within scripture. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the historical development of Christian theology and the nature of the Christian God.
