This work was drawn from antiquity; the light of nature; Holy Scripture; its noble nature; and from the dignity divine providence has put upon it. The Constitution of the New England churches as settled by their platform, may be fairly justified, from antiquity, the light of nature, Holy Scripture, and from the noble and excellent nature of the Constitution itself. And lastly from the providence of God dignifying it. Due to the age of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty or faded. Written in Old English.

Vindication,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Vindication of the Government of New England Churches (Hardcover)
The book is useful for scholarly purposes. Essentially a reprinting of the original, some of the words are a little more difficult to read, but it is quite convenient to be able to cite the original pages.
