The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing a philosophical introduction to the topic and the second part delving into specific theological issues related to nature and grace.In the first part of the book, Ward explores the concept of nature and its relationship to grace. He argues that nature is not sufficient in itself and that it requires the intervention of grace in order to achieve its full potential. He also discusses the role of reason in understanding the relationship between nature and grace and the limitations of human knowledge in this area.The second part of the book focuses on specific theological issues related to nature and grace, including the relationship between grace and human freedom, the nature of sin and redemption, and the role of the church in mediating grace to humanity. Ward draws on a wide range of philosophical and theological sources to explore these issues, including the writings of St. Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, and John Henry Newman.Overall, On Nature And Grace, Book 1: Philosophical Introduction (1859) is a thought-provoking exploration of a central theme in Christian theology and philosophy.
