Publisher's Synopsis
The Third Part was published in 1737, and is a confutation of the arguments from reason used by the Arminians, and particularly by Dr. Whitby, against the above doctrines; and a vindication of such as proceed on rational accounts in favour of them, in which it appears that they are no more disagreeable to right reason than to divine revelation; to the latter of which the greatest deference should be paid, though the Rationalists of our age too much neglect it, and have almost quitted it; but to the law and to the testimony, if they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them. In this part of the work is considered the agreement of the sentiments of Mr. Hobbes and the Stoic philosophers with those of the Calvinists, in which the difference between them is observed, and the calumny removed; to which is added, a Defence of the'Objections to the Universal Scheme, taken from the prescience and the providence of God, and the case of the Heathens. Publishers RecommendationThe editor of this work experienced a sudden conversion from crime to follow Christ, on the 16th January 1970. He soon learned about the many strange and differing among those professing Christian conversion and church function. His story is told in full in his autobiography, 'Bierton Strict and Particular Baptists' listed among our further publications at the rear of this book. Within 3 years of his conversion he had a good understanding of he doctrines of grace which pointed out the errors in Arminianism. The book the Cause of God and Truth was a great help to him and explained the seemingly awkward passages of scripture that opposed the teaching of the free grace of God. This book is recommended to all Christian of what ever persuasion or denominational leaning.
