The Unified God -- A Designed End to the Socinian Controversy - Paperback

by John Smith (Author)

The Socinians, also known as Polish Brethren or Unitarians in the 17th century, were the largest, most scholarly and vibrantly learned of the anti-trinitarian movement during the English Unitarian-Trinitarian controversy during that time period. John Smith, author of this treatise, believed in the truth found in the unity and simplicity of God's Word. This led him to clearly and concisely put forth a true knowledge of the one true God with mathematical exactness and scientific precision. The Socinians' biblically-based beliefs on the one true God influenced notables such as the poet John Milton, Sir Isaac Newton, the political philosopher John Locke, and John Biddle, the Father of English Unitarianism. Trinity College at Cambridge University housed many of the Socinian writings during the 17th century.
