Excerpt from English Sects: An Historical Handbook

Orthodox standard of belief to the stand point of anti-christian or frankly pagan teaching. Clearly, there is no common measure of all these various creeds and principles, but there is in the case of those sects which, whether they possess a for mulated creed or not, do in fact accept, if not the wording, at least the contents of the Nicene symbol. The subject of our diverse beliefs is usually treated in bulky and learned books which only the special student will consult. It is hoped that the small and handy size of this volume will bring to the notice of the general reader the leading facts which illustrate the unhappily divided state of English Christianity. Still more is it hoped that the reading of its pages will kindle a desire to help in removing the barriers which, for whatever cause, have been erected between sect and sect, be tween the sects and the Church.
