It is not their Objective Religion Generally and implicitly received that I mean, but their Subjective Religion, and their explicit reception of the Objective. The Scripture is our perfect Objective Religion in it self, and as an Object proposed, and in general and implicitly we all receive it. But as a man may say, I believe all that's in the Scripture, and yet be ignorant of the very Essentials in it; so a man may explicitly know and believe all the Essentials and more, and yet be ignorant of many Integrals.

All things in Scripture proposed to our Faith, Hope and Practice, are the Integrals of our Religion: But no Christian understandeth all these proposals or words of Scripture: Therefore no Christian explicitly believeth them all, or practiceth all. To hold the contrary, is to hold that some Church is perfect in Understanding, Faith, Hope and Practice, without Ignorance, Error or Sin: that is, not to know what a man or a Christian on Earth is.
