This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1908. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... chapter xiv. The Problem Of Providence. The Scripture basis may be laid in a few leading texts: "Abraham called the name of that place, jehovah jireh--the Lord will provide" (Genesis xxii: i4). "In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths" (Proverbs iii:6). "The Lord is a God of knowledge, and by Him actions are weighed" (i Samuel ii:3). "The Lord God of Recompenses shall surely requite" (Jeremiah li:56). "For this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power" (Exodus ix: i6). "Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee: "The remainder of wrath shalt Thou restrain" (Psalm lxxvi: io). "He calleth His own sheep by name, and leadeth them out" (John x:3). It marks the poverty of human language that even the rich English tongue supplies no word to express exactly what is meant by divine "Providence." The word literally means prevision, a foreseeing, and so prevision comes to mean provision--preparation for that which is foreseen, and then to convey a larger conception of superintendence over creation, in all parts of the universe, through all ages of time, and in all matters, great or small. But no such fulness of meaning is suggested by the word itself. The texts above quoted outline teaching that pervades the whole Bible, and which no isolated passages can properly represent. But a cursory glance shows that, in them, God is represented, on the one hand, as a Provider; and, on the other, as a Recompenser; that obedient souls may look to Him for individual guidance, even in small matters, confident that in His general supervision of all, the individual is not forgotten; and that He constrains even His foes to fulfil His designs, restraining their violence within fixed bounds; and shewing Himself a God of perfect knowledge and justice, by w...
