Excerpt from Messiah's Proper Deity, Argued From Scripture: Also, His Atonement, and the Divinity of the Holy Spirit; With a Few Strictures on the Way of a Sinner's Acceptance With God, and on Some Unitarian Publications

It has been the'author's care and study for years, to bring his own views, and those of opponents in this controversy, to the test of the Di vine oracles, that his own faith, in such matters, might rest'in the pow er of God, and not in the wisdom of man. And may he not make free to add, without incurring the charge of fanaticism, that his earnest pray ers have accompanied his research, that the Father of lights, by the Spi rit of truth, would be graciously pleased to lead him into this and all truth, and enable him to detect opposing errors? Without affec tation or vanity, he may therefore say, that the reader may expect ngt to be put off with crude, indigested thoughts on the points in debate, on with sentiments merely borrowed from others. Vt'hat he will find in these pages is the result of free deliberate inquiry for, though the eu thor, from the period in which he began to feel the power of truth on his own heart, believed in our Lord as a divine person yet of late years he has paid more attention to the controversy between Trinitarians and Unitarians than ever, especially to the Scripture evidence of Messiah's. True Deity. He has made it his frequent business to weigh the argue meats on both sides in the balance of reason and truth and has made it a point neither to reject nor retain any of his own former principles, or those of others, without such trial. The doctrines opposed have not been judged or condemned without a patient hearing. Still he speaks as to wise men, reveling their right candidly 'to judge what he saith, and praying they may judge rightly.
