Jacob Vernes says God has given men "sensitive hearts" and the ability to feel an "inner religious sentiment" and was ambiguous on some subjects.
Vernes shared with some of his contemporaries the view that religion should not be considered only through cold reason but also through emotion. God had given men "sensitive hearts" and the ability to feel an "inner religious sentiment". He was ambiguous on some subjects, for example writing that the Bible contained evidence both for and against the doctrine of eternal punishment.
