NOTE: The first part; a second part published in 1717 (ESTC states 1718, but may be wrong). Johnson (1662-1725), who is generally known as "Johnson of Cranbrook", was a theologian in the Laudian tradition, an early seventeenth-century reform movement within the Church of England which ...rejected the predestination upheld by the previously dominant Calvinism in favour of free will, and hence the possibility of salvation for all men...". This tradition also embraced "a more hierarchical church". Johnson was also "adiligent parish priest, [who] always had daily service in his church...he was an able theological writer and published many works,mostly anonymously....Johnson's eucharistic works have been described by W. Jardine Grisbrooke as the climax of the Laudian theological tradition..."
