Reliquiæ Baxterianæ, or, Mr. Richard Baxters narrative of the most memorable passages of his…

Some have defended the whole gross Substance of Arminianism, that Electio eft ex fide praevisa, That the Act of Conversion depends upon the Concurrence of Man's Freewill; That the justified Man may fall finally and totally from Grace, 14. Some have defended Universal Grace, as imparted as much to Reprobates as to the Elect, and have proceeded usque ad salutem Ethnicorum, which the Church of England hath Anathematized. 15. Some have absolutely denied Original Sin, and so evacuated the Cross of Christ, as in a Disputation at Oxon. 16. Some have given excessive Cause of Scandal to the Church: as being suspected of Socinianism. 17. Some have defended that Concupiscence is no sin, either in the habit, or first motion. 18. Some have broached out of Socinus a most uncomfortable and desperate Doctrine, That late Repentance, that is, upon the last Bed of Sickness, is unfruitful, at least to reconcile the Penitent to God. Add unto these, some dangerous and most reprovable Books. 1. The Reconciliation of Sancta Clara, to knit the Romish and Protestant in one; Memorand. That he be caused to produce Bishop Watson's Book of the like Reconciliation which he speaks of. 2. A Book called Brevis Disquisitio, printed (as it is thought) in London, and vulgarly to be had, which impugneth the Doctrine of the Holy Trinity, and the verity of Christ's Body (which he took of the Blessed Virgin) in Heaven, and the verity of our Resurrection. 3. A Book called Timotheus Philalethes de Pace Ecclesiae, which holds that every Religion will save a Man, if he holds the Covenant. Innovations in Discipline. 1. The turning of the holy Table Altar-wise, and most commonly calling it an Altar. 2. Bowing towards it, or towards the East, many times, with three Congees, but usually in every motion, access, or recess in the Church. 3. Advancing Candlesticks in many Churches upon the Altar so called. 4. In making Canopies over the Altar so called, with Traverses and Curtains on each side, and before it. 5. In compelling all Communicants to come up before the Rails, and there to Receive. 6. In advancing Crucifixes and Images upon the Parafront, or Altar-cloth, so called. 7. In reading some part of the Morning Prayer at the Holy Table, when there is no Communion celebrated. 8. By the Minister's turning his back to the West, and his face to the East, when he pronounceth the Creed, or reads Prayers. 9.
