properly and eomsistemJy used only as this one supreme self-existing Essence is considered in different points of view . For when considered as the Great First Cause of all things , from whence the whole universe of animate and inanimate creation solely derives its origin and existence , he is very expressively and significantly called the Father .
"When he is considered as acting in , and actuating his creatures , and administering to them such suitable help as their situation in the scale of existence requires , n > ore especially iri this spiritual and substantial dispensation , he is then with equal propriety termed the Son . " Again , as he measurably acts in the hearts of men individually , in
reproving and correcting them for every impurity of action and intention , in manifesting in them with convincing self-evident and undeniable clearness , the path that leads to eternal blessedness with himself , and irt enabling them by the influence of mercy , love and strength , to walk and persevere steadily therein during this scene

Fleet Street , February 11 , 1817-Sir , LOOKING the other day into a small publication , entitled " The Annual Monitor and Memorandum Book , for the Year 1816 , " published by a Quaker in the North of England , and evidently intended for the use of the society , I met with a passage
-which appears to me to justify the assertion so often made , that in-general if Quakers would explain themselves , they would be found not far from Unitarianism . The Editor observes , p . 124 : ' * The following explanation of the
Divine Being was found in manuscript , a few years ago , bearing the marks of not being a very modern production * but without any clue to discover the author , its coincidence with the ' sentiments of the Editor , induced him to Tequest a copy of the individual among whose papers it was found ; and he trusts it will not be less pleasing to many of his
readers * < c The words , in the generals are placed fn brackets ^ being an addition which he has ventured to insert ; as he does not conceive , by the teuour of the whole piece , that the author intended so unqualified a restriction of the several appellations , a « his words may otherwise possibly imply .
