be believed. But we will have no fuch prevaricating defences of Chriftianity. The major is the Infidels erroneous cavil; the minor is a falfe defence of the faith. The Church never faid that Chriftians were never few: it hath ever confeffed the contrary, that once they were few; and yet it hath proved againft the Infidel, that its teftimony was not doubtful, having better evidence of their veracity than numbers. You may perceive by thefe ftrictures upon this one difcourse, what an endless task it would be to write confutations, of every man that hath leisure to publish to the world his opinions, which are injurious to the Chriftian verity. And therefore no fober Reader will expect, that I or he must be fo tired, before he can be fatisfied and fetled in the Truth. FINIS. |
