Address of a minister to the church under his pastoral care , in which it is inquired, "Whether a church is obliged, or authorized, by any precept or precedent in the New-Testament, to require a publick, formal and explicit confession, of some particular misdemeanors, which is considered by many as previously necessary to a Christian profession, to baptism, and to Christian communion, and without which, it is supposed, none that are chargeable with them, may be admitted thereto." Wherein also, "most of the passages in the New Testament, if not all, that are supposed either expressly or implicitly to countenance the practice, are carefully examined--their true meaning ascertained--objections answered--and the negative side of the question, (it is apprehended) conclusively established.".
