PREFACE.
_Doctrine_of_New_Church_Briefly_Explained.png)
HE need of some popular exposition of the
Doctrines of the New Church, neither voluminous nor expensive, and adapted to the capacity of the average reader, has long been felt, and the desire for such a work has been often expressed.
To supply this need, has been the author's main purpose in the preparation of the present volume. The questions are often asked, What does the New Church believe and teach? and wherein do its doctrines differ from those of other churches? This little work will be found to contain true and intelligible answers to these inquiries.
The expositions have, for the most part, been necessarily brief; but the reader, who may wish to pursue the inquiry, is repeatedly referred to other works, wherein the same subjects are treated more extensively, and with rational and Scriptural evidence of what is believed to be the truth of the New Church views herein presented.
