Religion one, even the self-same thing in all ages, in all places, in all persons . Or a serious attempt to shew what true religion is, abstracted from all accidents and all circumstances: Applied to Paganism, Judaism, Christianity and Mahometanism. Together with Scriptural and rational Directions how to attain it, Cautions, Exhortations, &c. peculiarly adapted to Christianity. Intended to awaken in the unthinking Part of Mankind a suitable Concern about their present and future Felicity: but more especially to give the serious Inquirer a clear and succinct Knowledge of his Duty to God and Man, without the Labour, Cost, and Perplexity of procuring and reading the various and voluminous Writings upon this most important Subject. Clear of all Controversy. And adapted not only to inform the less knowing, but to regulate and settle the confused and fluctuating Thoughts of those who have read many Books on religious Subjects, without attaining any clear and proper Idea of what is Essential to true Religion, and what is only Circumstantial to it.
