another branch (as it is said) of Arians, so called from Aetius, bishop of Antioch, who is also charged with maintaining "faith without works," as "sufficient to salvation," or rather justification; and with maintaining "that sin is not imputed to believers." It is added, that he taught God had revealed to him things which he had "concealed from the Apostles;" which, perhaps, is only a misrepresentation of what he taught on the doctrine of divine influences.
