To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You recommend the use of every means not forbidden by God's word to hinder the increase of Popery, and I would willingly employ all means permitted by that word to convince its members of their errors ; but I cannot bring my- self to believe, that even the negative persecution of restrictions and disabilities are justifiable means of maintaining truth or repressing error. " The breath of the Saviour's mouth which is to con- sume the Man of Sin" whoever he may be, " the sharp sword of his mouth ...with which our trium- phant Lord is to smite the nations, " is no material weapon, but pure, unmixed Gospel truth, which " none of its adversaries shall be able to gainsay or resist. " You will perceive from this statement, that though my opinion of the Roman Catholic re- ligion is not quite so unfavourable as your own, 17 I also think it wrong- to encourage it, notwith- standing I cannot assent to 'your conclusion, that we are about to commit a national sin, the rea- son is, that an obvious fallacy pervades your appeal, and many writings on the same side, the confounding the admission of our Roman y o -/ Catholic fellow-subjects into civil offices with a national recognition of the truth of their religion.
