Excerpt from A Candid and Conciliatory Review of the Late Correspondence of the Reverend Dr. Worcester With the Reverend William E. Channing: On the Subject of Unitarianism Dear Sir, In compliance with your urgent and repeated request, I take my pen, after much, and serious deliberation, to communicate to you "some of my thoughts" respecting the late correspondence of the Rev. Dr. Worcester, with the Rev. Mr. Channing, "on the subject of Unitarianism." In doing this, I wish to appear rather as an inquirer than a judge. - My inquiries, if not exclusively, will principally relate to Dr. Worcester´s views and arguments in relation to the "doctrine of the Trinity," and the "persons" who are supposed to constitute a "Triune God." I desire to come to these subjects of inquiry with my mind duly impressed with their magnitude and solemn importance, and with a strong conviction of the difficulties which they involve. Fervently praying for Divine illumination and guidance, I shall inquire, in the first place, whether the Doctor´s views of The Doctrine of the Trinity, are to be admitted as correct? This, it seems, is, "upon the whole, your belief." - A belief, which, if well founded, I most sincerely hope will be strengthened and immoveably established in your own mind, and become universal. But as I cannot admit the Doctor´s views of this subject as "unquestionably" correct, I must be permitted to question, before I can undoubtingly receive them. In his Second Letter to Mr. Channing, Dr. Worcester observes, p. 30, "On the authority of the Scriptures, orthodox christians believe that the one Jehovah exists in a Trinity, called the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These we call persons, because we have no better word by which to denote the distinction," &c. In his Third Letter, p p. 19, 20, 24, 31, 33, 69, the Doctor says, "The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, are either three Divine Persons, united in one Godhead or else three separate Divine Beings.
