Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mother's Magazine and Family Journal, 1850, Vol. 18 Many Of them, with Mr. Robinson himself, and others accustomed to ministerial labor, were among the number Of those who emi grated to Holland. Some idea of the excellent Spirit of these men may be gathered from the language uttered by Mr. Robin son, and in the sentiment of which, we may rationally conclude, the emigrants generally coincided Our faith is not negative, ' he says, nor consists in the condemning Of others, and Will their names out of the head-roll Of churches; but In the edifying Of ourselves. Neither require we of any of ours, in the confession of their faith, that they either renounce or in word contest with the Church of England. The aim Of these men, and Of the Puri tan emigrants generally, was the edif yin g of themselves in the faith of Christ.
