Excerpt from British Ecclesiastical History: Including the Religion of the Druids, the Introduction of Christianity Into Britain, and the Rise, Progress, and Present State of Every Denomination of Christians in the British Empire Divine Revelation, conveying to man the knowledge of salva tion with eternal glory by Jesus Christ, is contained in various records of Church History, in the Holy Scriptures. This branch of study, therefore, is commended to every mind by the infinite wisdom and goodness of God. Divine Revelation contains the most glowing prophetic descriptions of the glories of Messiah's kingdom; and these prophecies having been accomplished, according to the purposes of Heaven, no human records can be compared for instructiveness, to the annals of the Church of Christ. Who that believes in the Holy Scriptures can doubt the correctness of this position? And who that presumes to call himself a Christian can possibly be uninterested in the triumphs of the Gospel through successive ages Or who that hopes for life everlasting by the blood of atonement, can be regardless of the growing honours of the Redeemer?
