Two Discourses On The Popular Objections To The Doctrine Of Election (1849)

by Henry A. Boardman

Book Overview

""Two Discourses on the Popular Objections to the Doctrine of Election"" is a book written by Henry Augustus Boardman and published in 1849. The book is a collection of two discourses that address the common objections raised against the Christian doctrine of election. The first discourse examines the objection that this doctrine is inconsistent with the justice and goodness of God. The author argues that God's sovereignty and mercy are not in conflict with each other, and that the doctrine of election is actually a manifestation of God's grace and love. The second discourse deals with the objection that this doctrine is fatalistic and undermines human responsibility. Boardman argues that the doctrine of election does not negate human agency, but rather affirms it, as it is through faith and obedience that individuals are chosen by God. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, and provides a thoughtful analysis of a complex theological topic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
