ABSTRACT

Natural Religion intimates the Necessity of a Providence guiding and governing the World, from the Consequence of the Wisdom, Justice, Prescience, and Goodness of the Creator. By Listning to the Voice of Providence to study its Meaning in every Circumstance of Life, in every Event. Let critical Annotators enter into specifick Distinctions of Providence, and its Way of acting, as they please, and as the Formalities of the Schoolmen direct. When Concurrence of Circumstances directs to the Cause, Men that take no Notice of such remarkable Pointings of Providence, openly contemn Heaven, and frequently stand in the Light of their own Advantages. Innumerable Ways the merciful Disposition of Providence takes to discover to people, what he expects we should do in difficult Cases, and doubtless then, it expects at the same Time we should take Notice of those Directions. As there are just Reflections to be made upon the various Conduct of Providence in the several Passages of Man's Life.
