To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
God. 2. Rational creatures, in final blessedness, having the sight of God.* 3. Rational creatures, still in the way of trial. 4. Irrational feeling creatures. 5. Insensible creatures. Numbers 4 and 5 are necessitated in all their opera- tions; number 3, in their chiefest operations, are free; numbers i and 2, m their chiefest operations, are ne- cessitated. This may be briefly explained. An insensible thing, having no consciousness whatever, has no light to guide it to a choice; and, where ther...e is no light, there is no liberty. A thing of this sort is not wholly passive, else it would be void of existence, but the ac- tive powers which it has are blind, and are led to their end by an external Being, the intelligent Creator of the insensible thing. A creature with senses, but without intellect and reason, has no reflex consciousness, no faculty of advertence to its own being and condition as such. Therefore, it acts always either on native im- pulse or by virtue of a training received from without.
