Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Works of Samuel Hopkins, D. D, Vol. 2 of 3: First Pastor of the Church in Great Barrington, Mass;, Afterwards Pastor of the First Congregational Church in Newport; R. I., With a Memoir of His Life and Character What has been said in the fourth chapter, Vol. I., on the decrees of God, includes and establishes the doctrine of particular election; and this doctrine has been supposed, and in a measure brought into view, a number of times in the foregoing sections. But it is thought expedient, and of importance, that it should be more particularly considered, explained, and vindicated; and this will be most properly done in the chapter on the application of redemption, as this limits the application, and points out the subjects to whom it is effectually applied, and who, in the issue, receive the whole benefit of redemption. The doctrine of election imports that God, in his eternal decree, by which he determined all his works, and fixed every thing and every event that shall take place to eternity, has chosen a certain number of mankind to be redeemed, fixing on every particular person whom he will save, and giving up the rest to final impenitence and endless destruction. This doctrine may be explained, and the evidence of the truth of it produced, by attending to the following propositions: - I. Mankind are entirely dependent on God, on his determination and sovereign mercy, for salvation. All creatures depend on God for all the good they have. Their existence, and all their enjoyments, are the fruit of his determination and appointment, which has made the difference between one and another, in every respect.
