The Philosophy of Reason is Insufficient

     The apostle saith, "After the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God to save believers by the foolishness of preaching."  That is to say, since the mere systems of reason were eventually insufficient for the salvation of mankind; and since it was impossible that their speculations should obtain the true knowledge of God; God took another way to instruct them; he revealed by preaching of the gospel what the light of nature could not discover, so that the system of Jesus Christ and his apostles supplied all that was wanting in the systems of the ancient philosophers.
