Other avocations have made difficult the due revision of this book in the light of the manifold hierological discussion of the past ten years. Since, however, I have seen no reason to give up any of its main contentions, and the growing interest in the central problem is expressed by the demand for a new edition, I have made shift to improve and expand it at the many points that had obtruded them selves for fuller consideration in the course of my general reading. And there is the further reason for removing the out-oi-print bar under which the book has lately lain, that, latterly as formerly, its most prominent theological critics are industrious in misrepresenting its positions. In this respect neo-unitarians and Trinitarians seem to be at one.
