B02273 An additional word to The body of divinity, or Confession of faith; being the substance of Christianity. Added on special occasion, tending further to confirm some truths therein. With a further discourse about the doctrine of election, universal, and special grace, &c. All which were touched in the said Confession of faith, but in this more plainy and fully (though briefly) discoursed and designed for the good of all. Whereunto is annexed a seasonable word of advice, being an essay for peace and union among all the sons and daughters of peace. / Written by Thomas Collier. Collier, Thomas, fl. 1691.; Collier, Thomas, fl. 1691. Body of divinity. 1676 (1676) Wing C5267AB; ESTC R174082 85,720 108
