Excerpt from A Collection of Historical: And Other Papers

This book contains a few examples of the work of a faithful busy, and useful life. Dr. Reynolds was first of all, and above all, a Christian minister. He was a man to whose intellectual and moral nature faith, and not scepticism, was congenial. He accepted without misgiving the religious belief known as Unitarianism, substantially as it was held and preached by William Ellery Channing and his contemporaries. But he respected the understanding and liberty of thought of other men. He had a large tolerance. He had also a genial and affectionate nature, which led him to form hearty friendships with men whom he accounted worthy, according to his somewhat severe standard of personal excellence, without regard to differences of belief. So he had the kindliest personal relations with the representatives of other denominations. He cared little for discussing questions about which Christians differ, although he was fully equipped for such discussions when his duty seemed to him to require them. But he stated with great power and with great beauty the arguments which lie at the foundation of the Christian faith, and at the foundation of good morals and purity and uprightness in personal conduct.
