Abstract: The end of the sixteenth and the beginning of the seventeenth century was marked by theological discussions concerning the decay of the world. Godfrey Goodman in The fall of man presented an extensive argument in favor if inherent corruptibility of the world that gradually heads to its destruction and George Hakewill countered with a book-long rebuttal of this view. The views of these two clergymen are presented in this article both of whom trying to enhance by common opinion that the world was created to express the glory of God.
