Great peace are they which love thy law, and nothing shall offend
them. He feels himself bound by the law of love to walk in all holy
obedience to the laws of Christ, even the preceptive parts of the New
Testament; thus he loves and obeys every law of God, nor is he, nor can
he be against one law of God that is revealed in God’s most holy word.
This is the doctrine Paul preached, and these are the sentiments God has
been pleased to reveal to my soul, and enabled me to preach constantly
and faithfully, and this every real believer must confess, that ever
heard me unprejudiced: does not this give the lye to all those preachers
in Town and Country who have falsely reported that I am an antinomian in
principle, and are continually maintaining antinomian sentiments; but I
bless God none can prove me an antinomian, either in principle or
practice; but it is a lamentable truth constantly seen, viz. that those
who belie a man’s principles, will not scruple to belie a man’s practice.
Mark this ye enemies in black; perhaps God has enable me to perform as
many, and more good works, than those who oppose me, though they talk
more about them than I do. Mr. Evans in his Sketch of all Denominations
has given us an account of the sect called antinomians; but let any
impartial Christian read that account and the above description of a
believer, and then charge me with antinomianism if they dare. The best
description I ever read of an antinomian, was written by the late Mr.
Huntington, in his Sermon:—“Moses unveiled in the face of Christ;” which
was afterwards printed in that best of Periodical Publications, the
Gospel Magazine, for the Month of November 1798, and which I take the
liberty to present to my readers.
