2 An Essay on Redemption. (1785)
3 Divine Benevolence:
or, An Attempt to Prove that the Principal End of the Divine Providence and
Government is the Happiness of God’s Creatures, by Thomas Bayes. (1731) (Published in 1731 under the name John Noon,
Thomas Bayes demonstrates that Gods purpose in creation was to provide his
creatures happiness. Written as an answer to nay-saying John Balguy in his
paper "Divine Rectitude," Bayes shows the inconsistency of Balguy's
position that God is self-serving, and that saying God is not "amiable and
lovely, he no longer remains the object of our trust and confidence..."
(Balguy argues that God punishes "just because.") 5 John Balguy, an English Moralist of the 18th Century, by Hugh David Jones. (1907) |
