An humble attempt in defence of reformation principles; particularly on the head of the civil magistrate : Wherein the gross falsehoods, calumnies, and imposed senses, palmed, by Mr. John Goodlet, upon the testimony emitted by the reformed presbytery, are exposed and confuted; and said testimony vindicated. As also, the seceding scheme of political principles most fully detected; -and discovered to be inconsistent with the law of nature, light of divine revelation, and covenanted testimony of the Church of Scotland. By John Fairly, Minister of the Gospel.
