IT seemeth hard to unruly Minds, that God should keep Intellectual Souls, so strange to the unseen World of Spirits; that we know so little of them, and that our Knowledge of them, is no more by the way of sense: But there is in it, much of Gods Arbitrary Soveraign Power, and much of his Wisdom, and much of his Justice, and also of his Love. 1. It pleased him to make Variety of Creatures: What harmony would there be without Variety? were there nothing but Unity there would be nothing but God. And various Creatures, must have a various Scituation, Reception and Operations: The Fishes must not dwell in our Cities, nor be acquainted with our Affairs. 2. We here dwell in Flesh, in Bodies organized for the Souls Receptions and Perceptions, and Operations: And the Wisdom of God doth suitably dispose of his Communications, and give us that measure of Light, which is agreeable to our State: The Sun must not shine on the Infant in the Womb, nor must he there see our Buildings and Tradings, and Business in the World. 3. We have Light here, that is proportionable to our work and interest: So much as is necessary to our knowing of our selves, and our God and Governour, and our Duty, and all those hopes that are our necessary Motives thereto. Men that will but observe the Operations of their Souls, may competently know what a Soul or Spirit is: And Men that will, but open their Eyes, and considerately look about them, may as certainly know that there is a God, as they can know that there is any Being

I published a short treatise on conversion, entitled, A Call to the Unconverted.

Que signifie l'adjectif Réformé dans la traduction du plus célèbre des ouvrages du puritain Richard Baxter (1615-1691) : The Reformed Pastor ? Certainement pas Réformé au sens théologique du terme ! Baxter adresse ici aux pasteurs anglais de sa génération un violent plaidoyer pour qu'ils réforment leur coeur, et par suite leur ministère, c-à-d qu'ils se repentent de leur paresse et de leur insouciance à l'égard des pécheurs qui se perdent. Mais le puritanisme de Baxter se situe bien loin du calvinisme à cinq points : il enseigne une justification finale conditionnelle à la fidélité du chrétien, il ne croit ni à la double prédestination ni à une mort de Christ exclusivement pour les élus, et le ton de ses exhortations est définitivement arminien. Conscient de ce hiatus, Mark Wilks (1783-1855) a traduit le livre en 1841 sous le titre pour le moins pléonastique : Le Pasteur Chrétien. A l'heure ou la mouvance évangélique se nourrit principalement de buzz et de hashtags sur les réseaux sociaux ou les blogs, il convient de la placer devant ses incohérences : ce Pasteur Réformé, qu'elle encense si fort sans l'avoir lu, condamne complètement et ses prétentions intellectuelles et la stérilité morale de son pastorat. Orthodoxe ou non, Baxter est tout sauf un hypocrite ; c'est pourquoi il convient de le prendre au sérieux, en ne déformant pas ses propos.
