On the Election of Grace and Theosophic Questions is a book written by Jacob Boehme, a German Christian mystic and theologian. The book explores the concept of divine grace and its role in the salvation of humanity. Boehme delves into the mysteries of the divine, discussing the nature of God and the relationship between God and humanity. He also tackles theosophic questions, such as the origin of evil and the nature of the soul. The book is a reflection of Boehme's deep spiritual insights and his unique perspective on Christianity. It is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in theology, mysticism, and the nature of the divine.Of the one will of God; Of the origin of God's ever-speaking Word; Of the introduction of the fiery enkindling into form; Of the original condition of the created world; Of the original state of man; Of man's fall, and of his wife; Of the animal manifestation in man; Of passages of the Holy Scripture; Of opposition between passages in the Scriptures; A brief compilation of objections; A further comparison and explanation of the passages concerning Election; A brief account of some questions that confound Reason; Theosophic Questions: What is God, apart from nature and creature, in himself? What is the abyss of all things where no creature is, or the unfathomable nothing? What is God's love and anger? What was there before the angels and the world of creation were? What was the ground and the essential principle from which the angels were created? What is the office and the mode of activity of the angels? What moved Lucifer that he had a desire contrary to God, and turned himself away from the good? How can a devil have arisen from an angel? or, what is a devil? In what essence and being does he stand after the fall? Seeing that God is almighty, why did He not resist Lucifer, and prevent this? What was it the devil desired, with a view to which he turned aside from God's love? What was the combat between Michael and the dragon? How may the eternal counsel of God be contemplated in the Divine intuition? How was the expulsion of the dragon and the legions of Lucifer brought about? What is the office of the devil in hell? Had the foundation of hell a temporal beginning, or has it been from eternity?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
