An Essay in which the Doctrine of a Positive Divine Efficiency: Exciting the Will of Men to Sin, as Held by Some Modern Writers, is Candidly Discussed, and Shewn to be 1. Unphilosophical. 2.

A Novel Doctrine, Utterly Repugnant to the Faith of the Christian Church in All Past AgesSamuel T. Armstrong, 1820 - 132 pagini |

Pagina 44 - Some truths there are so near and obvious to the mind that a man need only open his eyes to see them. Such I take this important one to be, viz. that all the choir of heaven and furniture of the earth, in a word all those bodies which compose the mighty frame of the world, have not any subsistence without a mind...
Pagina 93 - What if God, willing to shew His wrath, and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction...
