Now, the conclusions of this disposition are sure to be eventually right, more
and more right according to the general maturity of all thepowers,but it is sure to come right at last, because its operation is in analogy to,
and in harmony with, the whole spirit of the Christian moral system, and that
which it will ultimately love and rest in, are great sources of happiness common
to all the human race, and based on the relations they hold to their
Creator. cheap oil paintings
These common and general sources of pleasure are, I believe, a certain seal,
or impress of divine work and character, upon whatever God has wrought in all
the world; only, it being necessary for the perception of them, that their
contraries should also be set before us, these divine qualities, though
inseparable from all divine works, are yet suffered to exist in such varieties
of degree, that their most limited manifestation shall, in opposition to their
most abundant, act as a foil or contrary, just as we conceive of cold as
contrary to heat, though the most extreme cold we can produce or conceive is not
inconsistent with an unknown amount of heat in the body. cheap oil painting
