Excerpt from The History and Doctrines of Irvingism, Vol. 2 of 2: Or of the So-Called Catholic and Apostolic Church

It has arisen out of the throes and seething thought of the earlier part of this eventful period. And if logic wins its way in the realms of religious belief, if long habit does not remove from the disciples of these doctrines the power of candid judgment, and usages and interests do not become too deeply rooted to yield when their raison d'etre is no more, it must die, when, if the providence of God so orders, the present age is swallowed up in the next.

But I must not anticipate the criticism, which I hope to make with all the candour at my command, after my readers arc put in possession of the chief facts of the history of this Community, and of the doctrines which they profess.

§ I. Immediate expectation of the Second Advent.

The mainspring of their system is their belief in the near approach of our Lord's second Coming. This belief, as is well known, they share with a large number of Christians who do not participate in the peculiar views of these people. But the members of this Community have carried it, if not in their authorized documents which they keep wholly to themselves, yet in the wide-spread tenets of their members, to applications peculiar to themselves.

This belief arose, as has been narrated, out of the extraordinary events which accompanied the entrance of the present century.
