In-Text for such were the slanderous accusations of Celsus, Lucian, and Hierocles, and the rest of the learned enemies of the Christian Religion: They upbraided the Christians of their times, with whom they conversed, in their writings and in their discourses, that they received all NONLATINALPHABET, with an irrational Faith and an hasty assent, past without any examination, that they could bring no proof or demonstrative argument of what they held so pertinaciously, that nothing was required to make a Christian a Believer, as they used to speak by way of Scorn, for such were the slanderous accusations of Celsus, Lucian, and Hierocles, and the rest of the learned enemies of the Christian Religion: They upbraided the Christians of their times, with whom they conversed, in their writings and in their discourses, that they received all, with an irrational Faith and an hasty assent, passed without any examination, that they could bring no proof or demonstrative argument of what they held so pertinaciously, that nothing was required to make a Christian a Believer, as they used to speak by Way of Scorn, p-acp d vbdr dt j n2 pp-f np1, np1, cc np1, cc dt n1 pp-f dt j n2 pp-f dt njp n1: pns32 vvd dt np1 pp-f po32 n2, p-acp ro-crq pns32 vvd, p-acp po32 n2 cc p-acp po32 n2, cst pns32 vvd d, p-acp dt j n1 cc dt j n1, vvn p-acp d n1, cst pns32 vmd vvi dx n1 cc j n1 pp-f r-crq pns32 vvd av av-j, cst pix vbds vvn pc-acp vvi dt njp dt n1, c-acp pns32 vvd pc-acp vvi p-acp n1 pp-f n1,
Note 0 The words of Celsus, as we find them, in Orig•ns first book against that Epicurean Philosopher, are these — NONLATINALPHABET. p. •. edit. C•ntab. In this latter part he alludes to S. Pauls words, 1 Cor. 3. 18. which he most horribly and maliciously perverts, as Origen shews p. 12. He had before, out of his great Philosophical wariness, advised his readers not to take up opinions upon trust, without following reason and a rational guide, which he imputes to the Christians, and reckons them among the NONLATINALPHABET, &c. such as rashly believe juglers and pretenders to Legerdemain tricks, whose credulity and simplicity they aluse to evil designs and intents. So in the third book ▪ he most falsly accuses the whole body of Christians, NONLATINALPHABET, as diving away every wise man from the doctrine of faith, and only admitting persons void of understanding, and of a base and servile temper. p. 121.
