Religion one, even the self-same thing in all ages, in all places, in all persons. Or a serious attempt to shew what true religion is, abstracted from all accidents and all circumstances: Applied to Paganism, Judaism, Christianity and Mahometanism. Together with Scriptural and rational Directions how to attain it, Cautions, Exhortations, &c. peculiarly adapted to Christianity.

Clear of all Controversy. And adapted not only to inform the less knowing, but to regulate and settle the confused and fluctuating Thoughts of those who have read many Books on religious Subjects, without attaining any clear and proper Idea of what is Essential to true Religion, and what is only Circumstantial to it.
