 In line with Cudworth, Clarke, and many others, Price rejected theological voluntarism: the view that the precepts of morality depend on God’s will. The fundamental principles of morality are necessary, and thus eternal and immutable. The standard objection to this view is that it limits the sovereignty of God by making him subject to moral demands that are not dependent on him. Price’s response to this difficulty lies in his claim that, since God is eternal truth and reason, and since reason must recognize moral obligations, moral constraints are part of God’s nature, and not distinct from it. Nothing external to God constrains him.
