Description

The Doctrine of Divine Providence Opened and Applied is a religious book written by Increase Mather, a prominent Puritan minister and theologian in colonial America. The book explores the concept of divine providence, which is the belief that God is actively involved in the world and controls all events, including human actions and natural disasters. Mather delves into the theological and philosophical aspects of divine providence, examining the biblical basis for the doctrine and discussing various interpretations and controversies surrounding it. He also explores the practical implications of the doctrine, such as the importance of faith, trust, and submission to God's will in times of adversity. Throughout the book, Mather draws on his extensive knowledge of scripture, as well as his own experiences and observations, to provide a comprehensive and insightful analysis of divine providence. The Doctrine of Divine Providence Opened and Applied is a seminal work in Puritan theology and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious thought in colonial America.1684.
