Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Works of the Late Rev. John Paul, D.D., Of Carrickfergus: Comprising, I. A Refutation of Arianism; II. Creeds and Confessions Defended; III. Review of Dr. Montgomery's Speech
Ir does not comport with the plan of this publication, to enlarge the volume by an extended introduction. Yet, it seems only a dutiful mark of respect to the public that has called for these writings, to supply a few recollections of their esteemed author; and, in doing so, it can scarcely be out of place to take a hasty glance at one or two aspects of the great controversy to which these pages are chie?y devoted. The fact, that so numerous a body of subscribers, including a large proportion of ministers, have united in expressing the desire that these works should be reprinted, more than thirty years after the first of them issued from the press, supplies a testimony to their value that cannot fail to be gratifying to the surviving friends of the author, and to many others who admired him while living, as an able defender of orthodoxy, and of civil and religious liberty.
