corrupted the simplicity of the gospel , and we have already shewn 3 from the . writings of the New Testament , that the doctrine of the person of Christ was corrupted before the writings of the very earliest fathers had any existence , even in the davs of the apostles .
This writer further says , " . Mr . Stone wishea . to substitute a subscription to the scriptures only , for a subscription to the articles . " In this Mr . Stone ^ manifests the true spirit ol protestantism * and acts upon the noble maxim of a great writer , that , " The Bible , the Bible , and only the Bible ,, is . the religion of protestants . " Has the Church of

prQtestant , come forward as the advocate of such tyranny ? I should now proceed to consider the charge he brings against Mr . Stone , as rejecting all those parts , of scripture which de- ^ clare the atonement , as spurious interpolations , and what he advances in support of that doctrine , as also the allusion
be makes to the Levitical sacrifices , particularly the Paschal Lamb , but I must reserve this , with your permission , for another lettter . JVMV
