Christianity no Sect to be spoken against.
ACTS 28. 22. —For as concerning this Sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
WOULD you think that such a spiteful scornful Word as this should ever be said of the Christian Religion? That pure Religion and undefiled, 1which came into the World supported by the strongest Evidences of Truth, and recommended by the most endearing Allurements of Grace and Goodness: 2The sayings whereof are so faithful, and so well worthy of all acceptation: That Sacred Institution which scatters the brightest Rays of Divine Light and Love that ever were darted from Heaven to Earth: That's it which is here so invidiously called a Sect, and is said to be every where spoken against.
