The year is 1690 and the respected philosopher and theologian sets down to deal with the thoughts and conflicts of the day. Those issues are many and the conflict broad and opposing positions are firmly held. Locke sets out to cut through the popular chatter and to think through the volume of consideration in the quest of truth. He is not unsuited to the task, but for one man to make an impact on a generation, on a country and on history is a dubious task for anyone. But as he sets and thinks and writes, somehow the detail and interconnectedness of his reasoning builds a context which will in fact alter history.The year is now 2015 and as I set to reproduce this great work, I am awed by the similarities of our time to the time of this writing. I suppose it is more reasonable to conclude that all times are similar in the confusion of human ideas, of popular trends and of social organizations. What is different is that periodically a Locke or another person of reason is able to articulate it to their generation and it is left to us, generations past, to understand it, apply it and be benefited by it.To this end we attempt to give new birth to these old classical works of the great thinkers. To this end we pray for a continuous expression of truth that challenges the heart and opens the mind. Read on and be blessed.David Fritsche Th. D.
