John Locke was an influential English philosopher and physician of the Enlightenment. His work greatly influenced the development of political philosophy and the works of figures such as Voltaire and Rousseau. His religious beliefs varied over his lifetime, and were rarely displayed in his writings. These works, published posthumously, provide important insight into his theology and the final years of his life.
