Excerpt from The System of Doctrines, Vol. 1 of 2: Contained in Divine Revelation, Explained and Defended; Shewing Their Consistence and Connexion With Each Other; To Which Is Added, a Treatise on the Millenium The same sentiments are brought into View, and repeated, in a number of instances; which could not Well be avoided, in such a work And it is hoped, that such repetitions will not be inconvenient or tedious to the reader. To the most correct and elegant style, the author makes no pretension; as this is not his talent. If the words and expressions be not ambiguous, but are suited to convey the ideas, designed to be communicated to the mind of the reader, with ease and clearness, the chief and most important end of language is answered And it is hoped, that they who are, with proper attention and concern, inquiring after the truth, will exercise so much candour, as not to be offended, or slight it, though it be not expressed in words and a style, more agreeable to their nice and critical taste and they may observe a number of inaccuracies.
