Excerpt from The Theological and Miscellaneous Works, &C, of Joseph Priestley, LL. D. F. R. S. &C, , Vol. 10: With Notes, by the Editor, Containing a General History of the Christian Church, From the Fall of the Western EmpireI Now bring before the subscribers to Dr. Priestley's Theo logical and Miscellaneous Works, after an interval rather longer than was expected, the conclusion of his General History of the Christian Church. The attention to the publication of this work appears to have engaged some of the latest earthly anxieties of the learned and pious author nor can any one doubt, who justly appreciates his character, that his labour in collecting and arranging the materials which compose this history, was sustained by the hope, which, I trust, was not vainly indulged, of thus advancing valuable knowledge, encouraging scriptural views of the Christian doctrine, and recording for imitation, virtues eminently tried, and as eminently supported, by Christian professors of various denominations, some of whom, per haps, agreed in scarcely any thing but a desire to [mow God and to obey the gospel of his Son.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
