An apology for the Reverend Mr. Alexander W-----r, and other members of the church, who follow Mr. George Whitefield: Wherein is shewn, from the principles both of scripture and reason, that every christian is obliged to enquire for himself; to follow no particular forms; to make no distinctions, but what are warranted from the scripture; and to follow only these men who teach the Gospel of Jesus, as it was deliver'd by himself to his apostles, free of creeds, tests, confessions, &c. With a succinct view of the new Gospel, lately invented by the seceders, as taught in their act and testimony, and Mr. Adam Gib's warning. In a lecture by a Layman.
