Again, the definitions and explanations of words, which occur in the religious controversies of the pres ent time, will be most useful, as the readers of this work will be enabled to arrive at a correct conclusion with respect to their true meaning in the earliest and purest ores of Christianity, without the trouble of turn ing to arge and expensive works on Ecclesiastical History.
