New Lights [1]

a name frequently given to the early Christians in contempt. In modern times the expression has been applied to some seceding ecclesiastical bodies in Scotland, as, e.g. The Fifth Monarchy Men (q.v.). The Separates (q.v.), a sect of Calvinistic Methodists organized in this country near the middle of last century, were at first known also as New Lights.
