The Trinity Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from A Plea for the Catholic Doctrine of the Trinity The design which I had in view in preparing and publishing the following work, was to furnish those, who are not possessed of the means of examining larger treatises, with a brief, comprehensive summary of the evidences in favour of the doctrine of the trinity. I have therefore advanced but little original argument on the subject. My aim was, not to be original, but useful. I have collected the chief of my arguments from some of the most celebrated writers in favour of this doctrine. And finding that their arguments were generally stated in better and more forcible language than any in which I could express them, I have copied many of them verbatim. I wish it plainly understood, that I have not adduced the historical evidence in favour of this doctrine, because I deemed the scriptural insufficient to establish it. My primary appeal is to Scripture. But the manner in which Unitarians conduct the controversy on this subject, renders it, at least, desirable, that a work embracing both the scriptural and historical evidences in favour of the doctrine of the trinity, should be within reach of every sincere inquirer after truth.
