Excerpt from Declaration of Christian Doctrine as Held by the Religious Society of Friends We would, with humble thanksgiving, bear an especial testimony to our Lord's perpetual dominion and power in His Church. Through Him the redeemed 1n all generations have derived their light, their forgiveness, and their joy. All are members of this Church, by whatsoever name they may be called among men, who have been baptized W the one Spirit into the one body; who are builded as living stones upon Christ, the Eternal Foundation, and are united in faith and love in that fellowship which is with the Father and with the Son. Of this Church the Lord Jesus Christ is' the alone Head. 5 All its true members are made one in Him. They have washed their robes and made them white ln His precious blood, 6 and He has made them priests unto God and His Father. 7 He dwells in their hearts by faith, and gives them Of His peace. His will is their law, and in Him they enjoy the true liberty, a freedom from the bondage of sin. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
