A DISPLAY OF
ARMINIANISM
BEING
A DISCOVERY OF
THE OLD PELAGIAN IDOL FREE-WILL, WITH THE
NEW GODDESS CONTINGENCY,
ADVANCING THEMSELVES INTO THE THRONE OF THE GOD OF HEAVEN, TO THE
PREJUDICE OF HIS GRACE, PROVIDENCE, AND SUPREME
DOMINION OVER THE CHILDREN OF MEN;
Wherein
THE MAIN ERRORS BY WHICH THEY ARE FALLEN OFF FROM THE RECEIVED DOCTRINE
OF ALL
THE REFORMED CHURCHES, WITH
THEIR OPPOSITION IN DIVERS PARTICULARS
TO THE DOCTRINE ESTABLISHED IN THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND,
ARE DISCOVERED AND LAID OPEN OUT OF THEIR OWN
WRITINGS AND CONFESSIONS, AND
CONFUTED
BY THE WORD OF GOD.
Produce
your cause, saith the LORD: bring forth your strong reasons, saith
the King of Jacob.—
Isaiah 41:21.
Woe unto
him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the
potsherds of the earth.—
Isaiah 45:9.
