I am not attempting to lay down a system of divinity, but to discover the kind and order of truth divinely appointed and fitted to bring immediate peace to awakened and inquiring souls. And hoping to accomplish this most important end, I present "Jesus only," "He is our peace," who "made peace through the blood of His cross," (Col. 1:20), has come "and preached peace" (Eph. 2:17, ) by His "everlasting gospel," to them "who were afar off, and to them that were nigh."
