[770] This was probably “An Essay on the Liberty of Moral

Agents,” published consecutively in the first five

numbers of the _Arminian Magazine_ for 1791, and

concerning which Wesley writes: “I do not remember to

have ever seen a more strong and beautiful treatise

on moral liberty than the following; which I,

therefore, earnestly recommend to the consideration

of all those who desire ‘to vindicate the ways of God

with man.’”
