Excerpt from Sketch of the Rise of the Religious Society of Friends: Their Doctrines and Discipline
It must be confessed that these are subjects of in calculable importance; and we believe there are not a few who, with the New Testament in their hands, are ready to acknowledge that the modern system is not in conformity with the spirit or practice of pri mitive Christianity, who nevertheless think them selves bound to maintain it, simply from the idea of its present necessity or expediency. If the reader be one of this number, he will be prepared to admit that the principles and practice of the Society of Friends on these subjects, characterized as they are by their peculiar Simplicity, and confirmed by the experience of two centuries, are at least deserving of his attentive consideration.
