Publisher's Synopsis
A Theological Survey Of The Human Understanding: Intended As An Antidote Against Modern Deism is a book written by Robert Applegarth in 1776. The book is a theological survey of the human understanding and is intended to serve as an antidote against modern deism. The author argues that modern deism is a dangerous and false belief system that denies the existence of God and promotes a worldview that is detrimental to humanity. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the human understanding and its relationship to God. The author begins by discussing the nature of God and his role in the universe, before moving on to explore the human understanding and its limitations. He argues that while humans are capable of understanding many things, there are certain aspects of God's nature that are beyond human comprehension. The author also discusses the role of faith in human understanding, arguing that faith is essential to a proper understanding of God and the universe. He goes on to explore the relationship between reason and faith, arguing that while reason is an important tool for understanding the world, it must be tempered by faith in order to arrive at a true understanding of God. Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and arguments to support his thesis, drawing on a wide range of theological and philosophical sources. He also addresses many of the common objections to his arguments, providing thoughtful and well-reasoned responses to each one. Overall, A Theological Survey Of The Human Understanding: Intended As An Antidote Against Modern Deism is a thoughtful and well-written exploration of the relationship between God, humanity, and the universe. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in theology or philosophy, and provides a compelling argument against the dangers of modern deism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
