  Frederick Maurice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Frederick Denison Maurice (August 29, 1805 - April 1, 1872) was an English theologian and socialist.
In 1866 Maurice was appointed Knightbridge Professor of Moral Philosophy at Cambridge, and from 1870 to 1872 was incumbent of St Edward's in that city.
While many "Broad Churchmen" were influenced by ethical and emotional considerations in their repudiation of the dogma of everlasting torment, Maurice was swayed by intellectual and theological arguments, and in questions of a more general liberty he often opposed the Liberal theologians.

MAURICE OF NASSAU, prince of Orange (1567-1625), the second son of William the Silent, by Anna, only daughter of the famous Maurice, elector of Saxony, was born at Dillenburg.
Maurice soon showed himself to be a general second in skill to none of his contemporaries.
Maurice, who had on the death of his elder brother Philip William, in February 1618, become prince of Orange, was now supreme in the state, but during the remainder of his life he sorely missed the wise counsels of the experienced Oldenbarneveldt.

But its theological standpoint is as grave a danger today as it was when Maurice wrote, precisely because of its wholehearted rejection of the outward forms and signs of religious observance.
Maurice seems to have regarded it as completely identical with the Church, a point on which I shall venture to disagree with him.
It is one of Maurice’s great merits as an exponent of Christian doctrine that he recognized this truth and proclaimed it quite openly.

But Maurice was not infrequently disturbed and alarmed lest, in the temporary neglect of certain favorite conceptions of his own, the cause with which he so much identified those conceptions, should suffer a lasting harm.
The largeness and strength of this influence were due to the fact that Maurice always spoke with perfect courage and candor the thoughts that were born within him as the result of moral conviction.
Maurice, however, grew into a clearer compre- hension of his own peculiar position and of its value for his own day, as his life advanced.
