Note 574 — Chapter XXI
Reading edition
Ath. Oxon., ii. 287.
The Westminster Assembly condemned certain positions in Saltmarsh's writings, as well as in the writings of Dr. Crisp, and Mr. John Eaton, for their Antinomian tendencies.—See Neal, iii. 68. Neal does not say what the passages were. Edwards, in his Gangræna, part i., 25, 26, gives a list of their tenets, but we place little dependence on his accusations. It is very likely, however, that Saltmarsh might lay himself open to the charge of Antinomianism. We have not seen his book on Free-grace, in which perhaps the dangerous tenets he was charged with are to be looked for.
