Book Description
Excerpt from The Theological and Miscellaneous Works, Vol. 9 Being a Unitarian, and all the preceding general ecclesias tical historians having been Trinitarians, it was impossible but that I should see many things in a very different light from them, and therefore our representations of them will be very different, when there is no dispute about the facts. Characters of men, and of times, must vary with the senti ments ofthe writers on subjects of such importance as those in which I differ from my predecessors. Of this the reader will easily be apprized, and therefore he will make what allowance he shall think necessary on that account; and if my readers be men of candour, they will shew it on this occasion. This all Protestant writers do with respect to the writings of Catholics, from whose histories they take facts of the greatest importance, when they differ from them the most With respect to their judgment concerning those facts.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Theological and Miscellaneous Works, Vol. 14 Thus, if we could entertain any doubts of the truth of the Roman history. In the time of Cicero, the publication of his own letters, and those of his friends, corresponding with the history of their times, as found in other writers, would be an abundant confirmation of it. Evidence of this kind, therefore, from the letters and private papers of persons principally concerned in any transaction, is always sought after, and collected with care by those who are curious in history. Besides, it is more easy to distinguish genuine letters than genuine history, as they generally contain allu sions to more particular circumstances, with respect to persons, times and places, of which the apostolical epistles, especially those of Paul, are full; so that no person can read them, and have any doubt of their being really his, or written in the circumstances in which he represents himself. Also, the most important of them being written to whole churches, they were carefully preserved, till so many copies were taken, that their authenticity was placed beyond all doubt.
