- Baxter published his The successive visibility of the Church of which the Protestants are the soundest members. I. Defended against the opposition of Mr. William Johnson. II. Proved by many arguments. (1660). In response, William Johnson (1583-1663) wrote Novelty represt, in a reply to Mr. Baxter’s answer to William Johnson. Wherein the oecumenical power of the four first General Councils is vindicated, the authority of bishops asserted, the compleat hierarcy of church government established, his novel succession evacuated, and professed hereticks demonstrated to be no true parts of the visible Church of Christ. (Paris 1661).
