The Layman's Sincere and Humble Address to all Christian, particularly in and round the Massachusetts Bay, in New- England. . . [essay on controversy stirred up by Whitefield's preaching.] The most of his sermons are an harangue to move the passions, and too much like those of a theater or in Romish churches. This I know, that the spirit of God does work on the reason of the rational creature . . . |
