Description
Excerpt from A Treatise on Justification by Faith
There are, it is admitted, no want of excel lent works on this subject. These, the author has freely consulted. He would,-in particular, mention Davenant''s Disputatio de J netitia, Bishop Barlow''s Letters on Justification, Dr. Owen On Justification, and a work on the same subject by Dr. Bennet of London in answer to the lectures of Dr. Newman. These works, however, are mainly controversial, and the treatises of Davenant and Owen, in par ticular, are too elaborate and scholastic to be well fitted for the general reader. It has ao cordingly appeared to the author that there is room for a Work on the subject of a more popular and practical kind. The author has repeatedly and carefully read the celebrated lectures of Dr. Newman, but, he must confess, with a feeling of disappointment. The reason ing appears to him defective, and the distinc tions made either erroneous or unintelligible.
