Discourses Upon The Existence And Attributes Of God by Stephen Charnock. The opening of this 17th?century Puritan treatise defends the existence of God and opposes atheism by arguing that faith is natural and universal, grounded in the concord between reason, creation, and conscience. It employs a polemical scholastic method, blending Scripture with philosophical argument to show that a rational, infinite first cause explains order, harmony, and the ends of creatures. Belief in God is presented as essential for worship, obedience, and godly living, while self?creation or self?sufficiency is rejected as inadequate. The excerpt surveys early sections, and connects to later discourses on God’s patience, holiness, goodness, omnipresence, and omniscience, including discussions of foreknowledge, prophecy, and human liberty. The overall aim is to ground faith in a coherent account of divine existence and to apply it pastorally to both learned and lay readers.
