Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Delve into what it

Matthew Tindal.London: printed in the year, 1704. 15, 1]p.; 4
1731. Christian deist Matthew Tindal wrote Christianity as Old as
the Creation. In essence, Tindal takes the position that the
essential truths in Christianity have always been known by all
human beings since the creation of the world. According to Tindal,
any claim to receiving an exclusive revelation of truth by anyone,
or the church, must be tested by human reason. Any such revealed
truth that cannot be verified through human reason is either
invalid or nonessential in Christianity. Tindal finds that a number
of church doctrines fail to pass the test of human reason but
Tindal explains that the essential truths in Christianity are known
naturally and universally. Tindal explains that whatever honors God
and is good for mankind is in accord with God's will and should
guide human behavior. This, of course, is Tindal's paraphrase of
what Jesus described as love for God and love for neighbor, which
Christian deists believe is the essence of Christianity. See other
titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
