Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of James Arminius, D. D, Vol. 1 of 3: Performly Professor of Divinity in the University of Leyden, Translated From the Latin The origin of this discassion is thus stated by the elder Brandt: "On the subject of Predestination, he [Junius] endeavored to defend the opinion of Calvin, by rendering it a little more palatable. For he did not maintain that the divine predestination had respect to mankind either antecedent to the decree of their Creation, or Subsequent To Their Creation, On A Foreknowledge Of Their Fall, but that it had respect only to man already created, so far as being endowed By God With Natural Gifts, He Was Called To A Supernatural Good. On that account James Armiuius, then one of the ministers of the church at Amsterdam, entered into an epistolary conference with him, and tried to prove that the opinion of Junius, as well as that of Calvin, inferred the necessity of sin, and that he must, therefore, have recourse to a third opinion, which supposed man, not only As Created but As Fallen, to have been the object of predestination. Junius answered his first letter with that good temper, which was peculiar to him, but seemed to fabricate out of the various opinions concerning predestination one of his own, which, Arminius thought contradicted all those which it was his endeavar to defend. Arminius was induced to compose a rejoinder to the answer of Junius, which he transmitted to the Professor, who retained it full six years, to the time of his death, without attempting to reply." The letter of Arminius was divided by Junius into twenty-seven propositions in answering it, and each of them is here presented, with the answer of Junius, and the reply of Arminius, corresponding to it.
