Excerpt from Dogmatic Theology, Vol. 1 Upon the subject of Adam's sin and its imputation, the author has been constrained to differ from some theologi ans for whom he has the highest respect, and with whom he has in general a hearty agreement. In adopting the tra dacian theory of the origin of the soul, in the interest of the immediate imputation of the first sin, he believes that he has the support of some of the most careful students of Scripture, and deepest thinkers in the history of the Church. This theory, however, even when adopted has not attained much explication. Some further development of it has been attempted; with what success, the reader must judge. The doctrine of the Trinity has been con structed upon the Nicene basis, but with more reference to the necessary conditions of personality and self-conscious ness, and the objections to the personality of the Infinite introduced by modern pantheism. In respect to the onto logical argument for the Divine Existence, the author is in sympathy with the a priori spirit of the old theology. The statement of the doctrine of Decrees, and of Regen cration, is founded upon the postulate, that all holiness has its source in the Infinite will, and all sin in the self-deter mination of the Finite.
