Excerpt from Tracts, Vol. 6 God. Did not Jesus 'speak of himself repeatedly and plainly as one who was sent or commissioned by God? And yet is it possible that he should sustain this character, if, according to the Trinitarian scheme, he is either thehvery and eternal God, or a part Of'him, or another' being equal to him? Must he not be a being distinct from God, and in the most proper sense a creature of God, if he is to be con sidered as a messenger from God And must he not be a much more suitable messenger to men, on the supposition of his being himself one of the human race, than on any other? What then is the evidence by which his divine mission rs proved Is it not uni formly represented as arising from the miracles which God wrought by him, and especially from his resur rection from the dead And does not the Unitarian system leave the christian in fullpossession of all this? Yea, is not the resurrection ofjesus considered as the resurrectron of a man, a more satisfactory proof that he was sent from God to preach the resurrection of mankind, than we could possibly have on any other Supposition Allowing thatjesus was naturallyaman, we see a knowledge and a power displayed in him which was vastly superror to that Of mere man: And therefore certainly we have the greater warrant to conclude, that God was with him, and consequently that he was sent from God. Observe then, my christian friends, the ground of your faith in Christ. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
