Let explain that this work is an old work, and it is kind of difficult to follow, as Baxter’s speech is of his day, not our day.
CONTENTS
1. Sore, great Persecutions, hath he oft raised against them from the first dayes of the Gospel, till now.
2. Schisme amongst the Churches of Christ
3. False Doctrine, Worship.
4. False Visions, lying Revelations; upon which many times, false Doctrine, Worship, hath been built, supported.
5. Pretensions to a more than Ordinary Authority, Power. False-Prophets, Pseudo-Apostles there were even in the Apostles dayes,
6. False Miracles, Lying Signs and Wonders.
7. Open, avowed, oppositions to Gospel-Institutions of this device of Satan to ruine the Churches of Christ, we might give a distinct, and large account; some there were of old that opposed, denied, some particular Ordinances; others refused communion with the Churches, as no Churches of Christ.
Preface
Two things must here briefly be enquired into.
1. What a Gospel-Church, or an Instituted-Church of Christ is.
2. That such a Church is of the Institution of Christ.

I am very grateful to God for having placed in Costas Stergiou's mind the idea of creating a free program of such excellent quality and so useful for my personal life and for my work in the Lord's work. God bless you dear brother! A big hug from Colombia.

I am from South Africa (Groblersdal), and I would like to extend my astronomical gratitude to "the word" team for their remarkable job on this software let alone making it free for all to access. This is a true act of serving God. I have used this software for almost 4 years and I'm thoroughly impressed by the effort you have put in it. May God continue to bless you in all your future developments.
...Your Fellow Servant of Christ Jesus
Be blessed in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
Greetings from Germany
