Review of Cousin President Edwards on self-determination Moral government of God Testimony of Scripture Ambiguous phraseology Figurative language Acrimonious controversy. SOON after the publication of Henry stranslation of Cousin s Psychology, I undertook to write a review of the work, for the Christian Spectator. Before coming to the chapter which treats of the Freedom of the Will, in the latter part of the book, the review had already been extended so far, that there was not room left to do justice, at that time, to so difficult a subject. It was, therefore, passed without notice. I have since been apprehensive, that from this omission, an inference might perhaps be drawn, that I acquiesce in the opinions there presented by Cousin. Long continued ill health, and urgent official engagements, have prevented an earlier expression of my own views on the subject. In endeavoring to give it a fair examination, I have not thought it necessary to confine my observations to a review of Cousin. The self-determining power of the will is a subject which is intimately connected with many of the theological discussions of the present day. Yet there are reasons for believing that it is not, in all points of view, generally and clearly understood.

An Inquiry Respecting the Self-Determining Power of the Will (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book revisits the philosophical debate on the causality of human volition. The author, an experienced theologian, questions the notion that the will is entirely self-determining and examines the implications of external factors on our choices. The book explores various theories on volition, including those of Edwards and Cousin, and argues that a contingent determination of volition is untenable. It examines the influence of motives and external circumstances on our decisions, challenging the idea that they are mere objects of choice and arguing that they play a significant role in shaping our actions. The book concludes by emphasizing the importance of considering volitions as part of a complex causal chain, influenced by both internal and external factors, rather than as isolated, self-originating events. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
