Sobre IBD

The Chief End of Man is a philosophical and theological work written by George Spring Merriam in 1897. The book explores the concept of the purpose or goal of human existence, and argues that this purpose is to seek and know God. Merriam draws on a variety of sources, including scripture, philosophy, and literature, to support his argument. He also addresses objections to his position and offers practical advice for living a life oriented towards this ultimate goal. The Chief End of Man is a thoughtful and thought-provoking work that continues to be relevant to contemporary discussions of religion and spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
