The Great Christian Doctrine of Original Sin Defended That there is occasion to speak often concerning the difference of those, who in their general scheme of divinity agree with these two noted men, calvin and ar_minius, is what the practice of the latter confesses who are often, in their discourses and writings, taking notice of the supposed absurd and pernicious opinions of the former sort. And therefore the making use of different names in this case cannot reasonably be objected against, as a thing which must come from so bad a cause as they assign. It is easy to be accounted for, without supposing it to arise from any other source, than the exi gence ofthe case, whereby mankind express those things, which they have frequent occasion to mention, by certain distinguishing names. It is an effect, similar to what we see in cases innumerable, where the cause is not at all blameworthy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Theological Questions An ultimate end is that which the agent seeks in what he does, for its own sake: That he has respect to, as what he loves, values and takes pleasure in on its own account, and not merely as a means ofa further end. As when a man loves the taste of some particular sort of fruit, and is at pains and cost to obtain it, for the sake of the pleasure of that taste, which he values upon its own account, as he loves his own pleasure and not merely for the sake of any other good, which he supposes his enjoying that pleasure will be the means of.

Doctrine of the Original Sin Defended; III. Observations Upon Particular Passages of Scripture; IV. Theological Questions Here it is to be noted that a thing sought, may have the nature of an ultimate, and also of a subordinate end as it may be sought partly on its own account, and partly for the sake of a further end. Thus a man in what he does, may seek the love and respect of a particular person, partly on its own account, because it is in itself agreeable to men to be 1 the objects of others' esteem and love And partly, because he hopes, through the friendship of that person to have his assistance in Other ad'airs and so to be put under advantage for the obtaining further ends.
