Howbeit, if we will truly consider it, it is more worthy to believe than to know as we now know. For in knowledge mans mind suffers fiom sense which is the reflection of things material but in faith the spirit sufl Fers from spirit which is a worthier agent. Otherwise it is in the state of men glorified, for then faith shall cease, and we shall know even as we are known. The use of human reason in matters of religion is of two sorts; the former in the explanation of the mystery, the latter In the inferences derived from it. With regard to the explanation of the mysteries, we see that God vouchsafes to descend to the weakness of our apprehension, by so expressing His mysteries that they maybe most sensible tons; and by grafting His revelations upon the notions and conceptions of our reason; and by applying His inspirations to open our understandings, as the form of the key to the ward of the lock.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
