In addition to all this, you represent them as saying; 'Since argument is insufficient to produce uniformity of opinion, recourse must be had to more powerful instruments of conviction, to Ecclesiastical Courts.'\" - pp. 7-8.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orthodox Trinitarian Moses Stuart is responding to the claims and slanders of the Unitarian William Ellery Channing, and recent \u003cem\u003eElection Sermon\u003c\/em\u003e delivered before the Massachusetts State Legislature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoses Stuart (1780-1852), born at Wilton, Connecticut. Stuart graduated with highest honors from Yale College in 1799, afterwards teaching at several posts, including as Tutor at Yale. He studied theology under Dr. Dwight and was ordained pastor of the Church in New Haven in 1806. From 1810 to 1848 he was Professor of Sacred Literature at Andover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Mr. (for he refused the title of Dr.) Stuart’s life was one of incessant labor, devoted chiefly to Biblical literature. In this he led the way in his own country with most happy results. His own contributions to sacred learning are very valuable; but perhaps he did even more by the impulse he gave to Biblical study, and the sound principles of Biblical exegesis which he instilled into the minds of his younger brethren, especially in America, than by the works which he himself published.” – M’Clintock \u0026amp; Strong.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haaswurth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45112611733570,"sku":"ABE12370","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0191\/6066\/2082\/files\/DSC08166_c2652036-99b8-41e3-bcc8-c8eeff2fe374.jpg?v=1788030169","url":"https:\/\/www.haaswurth.com\/products\/moses-stuart-refutes-claims-of-unitarian-william-e-channing","provider":"Haaswurth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
