Note 566 — PART II. (continued 7)

Cudworth published two replies to Wesley; one in 1745, entitled, “A Dialogue between a Preacher of inherent righteousness and a Preacher of God’s righteousness: being an answer to a late Dialogue between an Antinomian and his friend.” 12mo, 12 pages. Another, in 1746, with the title, “Truth defended and cleared from mistakes and misrepresentations.” 12mo, 52 pages. In both of these productions, Cudworth shows great ability, and though his opinions, as there expressed, are far from orthodox, yet, unless other facts can be alleged against him, he hardly deserves the hard things which Wesley said of him.
