ent about a matter of .such vast importance to all mankind, for four thousand years together. .CHAPTER III. Qbservatiens on various other Places of Scripture, principally of the New Testament, f roving the jPeftrinc O/"qriginal Sin. SECTION I. filservations on John iii. 6, in connexion vAth -some other passages in the New Testament.
