Andrew Fuller Friday: An Address to Christians (Part 2)

“The manner in which things of later ages have moved on, in the religious world, has been such as to admit of a larger outer-court, if I may so speak, for a sort of half worshippers. A general religious reputation has been hitherto obtained at a small expense. But should infidelity prevail throughout Christendom, as it has in France, the nominal extent of the Christian church will be greatly reduced. In taking its dimensions, the outer-court will, as it were, be left out and given to the Gentiles. In this case, you must come in or keep out; be one thing or another; a decided friend of Christ, or an avowed infidel It is possible the time may come when all parties will be reduced, in effect, to two— believers and unbelievers.”

Excerpt From “The Gospel Its Own Witness”, 1799
