What We Have Been, What We Are And What We Will Become

Pierre Fournié wrote his treatise 'What We Have Been, What We Are, And What We Will Become' between 1775 and 1801. It was published in England and France in 1801 and was intended to be the first of two treatises dealing with his metaphysical system. The second volume was never published, although a manuscript may have been written. This is the first English translation of this critical work.

This rare treatise is accompanied by a detailed introduction to Abbé's life and the influences on his thinking. 

 


 

 

The core of Fournié's metaphysics concentrates on the battle between good and evil in the co-existing corporeal and spiritual universes. This struggle continues after physical death in a purgatorial state of existence, of which this present world and our present lives are a part.

Pierre Fournié (1738-1825) was a tonsured priest and an early initiate into the Élus Coën. His message reflects the philosophy of the Order, which is to live by God's ways so that we may, little by little, “dematerialize and spiritualise ourselves in his likeness."  

This fascinating image is one that the Abbé extends beyond the confines of this world and into the next, where “the mixture” of good and evil continues and where we must settle on discerning truth and purifying ourselves through suffering until we can reconcile with God fully. Eventually, we become “men of the eternal light that issues from him.”

The Abbé adopts a stoic philosophy, regarding the pursuit of virtue as the only temporal path open to man for his reintegration. The Seven Gifts of the Spirit are forces that oppose Satan's desire to trick humanity into believing him as the only true god. Fournié's ethics are uncompromising. For him, the sole objective and guiding principle is discerning the will of God, through which we may finally become free of the influence of Satan and his apostles. 

This book explains all of this and more. It starts with an excellent three-part introduction by the author, who demonstrates an in-depth level of research into the subject matter—not only with Pierre Fournié but also with the Order of the Élus Coën.
