[Footnote 042:  Those, who will read his life, published by the writer of these pages, with other Tracts, in 1819, will not, it is believed, think this too strong an assertion.  Is it not to be earnestly hoped, that in the distress by which we are now visited, and the greater distress with which we are threatened, many St. Vincents will appear?]

[Footnote 044:  Le Clerc, (Bib.  Anc. et Mod. vol. xxiii.  Art. iv.) strenuously objects to this representation of Dr. Mosheim.  “The Arminians,” he says, “have introduced no dogma as necessary to salvation, which was unknown to the framers of their Confession of Faith; neither have they retrenched from it, any article essential to faith.”  He however observes, “that there are many ways of explaining dogmas.”  Now, the same dogma explained in two ways, amounts to two dogmas.]

For the actual state of Religious Doctrine, both in the Lutheran and Reformed Churches of Germany, the reader may usefully consult, “The State of the Protestant Religion in Germany, in a series of Discourses preached before the University of Cambridge, by the Rev. Hugh James Rose, M.A. 8vo. 1825;” and “Entretiens Philosophiques sur la Re-union des differens communions chretiens, par feu M. le Baron Starck, Ministre Protestant, et premier predicateur, de la Cour de Hesse Darmstadt, &c. 8vo. 1818;” and “Tabaraud’s Histoire des Re-unions des Chretiens.”]
