Wilberforce sets out to trace the “chief defects of the religious system of the bulk of professed Christians” in England. He points out that “their low idea of the importance of Christianity in general, their inadequate conceptions of all its leading doctrines, and the effect hereby naturally produced in relaxing the strictness of its practical system.” He distinguishes these “nominal” believers from “true” believers, stating that the Christianity of the nominal believers “is not Christianity.”
