Présentation de l'éditeur
The Unitarian Association of the State of New-T ork feeling itself charged with the promulgation of sound Christian Doctrine in this community, is solicitous to put forth in the cheapest form, consistent with clearness of type and durability of substance, a series of works, declarative or defensive, of Unitarian Theology. The present volume is an experiment upon the interest of the public mind in the subject. It will speedily be followed by others if it shall obtain a general or considerable circulation. It will be observed that the Scripture Proofs of Unitarianism is exclusively devoted to the establishment of a single article of faith, the strict, undivided Unity of God, and the subordination of Christ to the Universal Father. The reader must not expect, therefore, to find in this volume any general account of the Unitarian system of faith, but only the evidence on which we ground the opinion which fundamentally distinguishes us from Trinitarian Christians. We think it proper to remark that the Author shumanitarianism would be objected to by many Unitarians in this country, and we do not intend either to endorse or to disown his sentiments respecting the nature of Christ any farther than they deny or disprove his Supreme Deity. The importance of this work, and the propriety of devoting so many pages to the single question it treats, will be granted by those who reflect that the whole controversy between Liberal and Orthodox Christians (the first title wilf surely be conceded us if we yield the second to our opponents) turns upon the Deity of Christ. On the truth of that dogma rests the scheme of Calvinistic theology, and of every other system of faith involving an infinite sacrifice, and we consider that the establishment of the derived and dependant nature and character of Christ in this work, lays the axe to the root of the tree of the popular Theology.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
