The pojmlar systems appear to us far from being consistent with divine truth ; and we solicit the assistance of any atwj every friend to truth , in our researches :
-we mag have mistakes , but toe have no segrfts , and we would advise our friends to . have none in religion * Let us think freely , hut modestly , that is ^ in sub mission to tjie authority of Sacred Scripture : let no man make us afraid ... . ¦ ¦ ' -It is the peculiar fdicity of our Magazine to be open to alt parties ; to let Christians of eycty
