STUDENT OF CHRIST CHURCH, OXFORD.

“The principles of Christianity are now as freely questioned as the most doubtful and controverted points; the grounds of faith are as safely denied as the most unnecessary superstructions; that religion hath the greatest advantage which appeareth in the newest dress, as if we looked for another faith to be delivered to the saints: whereas in Christianity there can be no concerning truth which is not ancient, and whatsoever is truly new, is certainly false.”—(Bp. Pearson on the Creed: Epistle Dedicatory.)
