James Foster (Male, born 1697, died 1753)
Genre: Sermons
Sermons on the following subjects, viz. Of the universal sense of good and evil. The characters of the righteous and good man compared; or benevolence the noblest branch of social virtue. The perfection of the Christian scheme of benevolence; in answer to the objection from its not having particularly recommended private friendship, and the love of our country. Of the image of God in man; or the excellency of human nature. God not an arbitrary being. Of the abuses of free-thinking. Of Mysteries. Agur’s prayer; or the middle condition of life, generally, the most eligible. The mischiefs of flavish complaisance, and cowardice. Rules for the profitable reading the Holy Scriptures. Of Heresy. Of Schism. Of the pleasures of a religious life. Religion founded on reason, and the right of private judgment. The evidence of a future state, on the principles of reason and revelation, distinctly consider’d. The nature, folly, and danger of scoffing at religion. By James Foster.
