How God Hardened Pharaoh’s Heart.

Much has been said on this subject; but the following illustration which I find in the introduction to Theodoret’s Ecclesiastical History, seems, to my mind, about the best I have seen. His illustration is this:
“The sun is said to melt wax and harden mud, although it possesses only the property of giving heat; so the patience and goodness of God produces two contrary effects in different individuals, being useful to the one, and rendering the other more guilty; hence it is said, that some are thus converted and others hardened.”
D. M. Canright.
