Godbey. From ages immemorial antipodal dogmatisms have universally prevailed, i. e., God's sovereignty and man's free-agency; the former culminating in absolute fatalism as taught by the stoic philosophers of Greece and adopted by Mohammed in his Koran, the latter finding its ultima thule in reckless liberalism, developing into that ultra pantheism which makes every man a god. As in controversial matters generally, the truth abides in the interim between two errors; therefore, we conclude the divine sovereignty and human freedom are both incontestable verities, perfectly harmonica either with other, despite the incompetency of finite minds always to reconcile them. Election is from ekout and legoo , to choose. Predestination is from pre , beforehand, and destinal , to a point, hence it means an antecedent appointment. |
