Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reflexions Upon Mr. Toland's Book, Called Christianity Not Mysterious: With Some Considerations About the Use of Reason in Matters of Religion, in a Letter to a Friend In doing this I shall, First, take notice of some things in his Book, which I think dishonourable to God, and dangerous to Religion; not intending however to reflect upon all that is erroneous, but only upon those things that are of greatest Consequence in this Controversie of the Mysteries of Faith. Secondly, I shall shew you as clearly, and in as little room as I can, what is the true Use of Reason in Matters of Religion; with particular Application to the Doctrines relating to the Blessed Trinity, being the Matters chiefly aimed at in this Controversie. Mr. T - d begins his Book with what he calls Stating the Controversie; where, after he has represented his Adversaries Opinions, as Men use to do those things they have a mind to expose, he tells us in short what his own Thoughts are; We hold that Reason ts the only Foundation of all Certitude; and that nothing revealed, whether as to its Manner, or Existence, is more exempted from its Disquisition, than the ordinary Phenomena of nature -- That there is nothing in the Gospel contrary to Reason, or above it; and that no Christian Doctrine can be properly call'd a Mystery.
