Book excerpt: Excerpt from Summary of Christian Doctrines as Held by the Religious Society of Friends This essay has been written in pursuance of a suggestion made by some members of Friends' Publication Association, that a brief statement of Friends' views would be useful, to be handed to those who inquire what we believe, and what are the grounds of our faith. The views herein presented in a concise form are substantially the same as those more fully explained in two of my previous works, entitled, Conversations on Religious Subjects, and The Life of George Fox, with Dissertations on his views concern ing the Doctrines, Testimonies and Discipline of the Christian Church. Several passages are in nearly the same language, and some further illustrations have been added, my aim being, not originality of expression, but Gos pel truth in simplicity and clearness.
