A third free-gift to the clergy: or, The hireling priests, of what denomination soever, again challeng'd to a disputation on this question: whether the hireling preachers of this age, who are all ministers of the letter, be not worshippers of the Apocalyptical beast, and ministers of Anti-Christ? Very fit to be debated in these latter times of the apostacy. By Thomas Woolston, sometime Fellow of Sidney-College in Cambridge.
