A treatise on God's love to the world : Wherein is shewn the perfect agreement betwixt the religion of Jesus, supernaturally revealed in the Gospel, and the religion of nature and reason in its state of integrity before the fall: but in as far as it is since corrupted, it so far ceases to be the religion of nature and reason, but sinks and degenerates into human inventions, and satan's devices: for what a faithful and unchangeable God reveals in deed and in fact by a natural revelation, he cannot contradict by any supernatural revelation, being always consistent with himself. 'Tis true, the supernatural revelation, on account of man's lapsed state, necessarily contains many things quite hid from the ken, and far above the comprehension of the natural revelation, even in its integrity; but it contains nothing in it, either contrary to the natural revelation in its integrity, or inconsistent with it; nor can it, since the all-perfect God is the author of both these revelations; the author of the natural revelation by the obscurer light of reason, even when in its state of integrity; and the author of the clearer and fuller light of the supernatural revelation by the grace of the Gospel. By James Sloss, M.A. author of the Sermons on the doctrine of the trinity.
