Описание:
Written in 1746, "Religious Affections" is the widely influential work by Jonathan Edwards, one of America's most important religious leaders and theologians. Edwards was a significant force in the rise of religious devotion in the United States in the 1730s known as the First Great Awakening and became a popular American revivalist preacher. His "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is one of the most famous sermons ever given and remains a widely read classic of American literature. In "Religious Affections", Edwards examines how a true conversion to Christianity occurs and sets out in detail how to test if one is converted in earnest. Edwards argues that while both emotion and intellect are involved when a person converts, it is the grace of Christ that allows one to truly awaken to the Christian faith. The "Religious Affections" referenced in the title are described by Edwards as the fruit of the Spirit and it is from these fruits, with love being the chief among them, that all other Christian graces and virtues grow. Edwards' powerful treatise remains an essential and informative read for all divinity students and devout Christians seeking a better understanding of their faith. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

"Charity and Its Fruits" is a collection of sermons by Jonathan Edwards, one of America's most important religious leaders and theologians. Edwards was a significant force in the rise of religious devotion in the United States in the 1730s known as the First Great Awakening and became a popular American revivalist preacher. His "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is one of the most famous sermons ever given and remains a widely read classic of American literature. "Charity and Its Fruits" is one of Edwards' earlier collections of sermons and the works are concerned with the topics of charity, Christian love, and devotion to God. These inspiring and comforting sermons show what is possible when the faithful act with a charitable spirit rather than with an envious or selfish one. Edwards preached a life of humility, good deeds, and quiet devotion. His discussion of 1 Corinthians 13 remains one of the most powerful ever written. "Charity and Its Fruits" is a reassuring and accessible introduction to one of America's most famous religious figures. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

Описание: Looks at the politics, the mayoral election of 2008, the candidates, and the results and what they mean for Londoners.
Described as a "thought provoking and biblical" essay on the trinity, Edwads cites scripture throughout to support his theological beliefs that our souls are made in the image of God, as is our understanding and will, and capacity for ideas and love. The differences between man and God lay in the varying degrees of perfection with, of course, God as the supreme manifestation.
Edwards himself was a slave owner, and for much of his life had lived as a champion of the somewhat frenzied Protestant revival in New England during the 1730s.
He experienced a change of heart in his attitudes toward discrimination, and eventually openly denounced the practice of importing slaves. He also took up ministering to a Native American tribe in Massachusetts after being dismissed from the pastorate. This "social awakening" in his later-life may have contributed to his work's new contemplations on ethics, harmony, and beauty, perhaps bringing him just a touch closer to perfection.

Описание: This volume argues that the notion of “affections” discussed by Jonathan Edwards (and Christian theologians before him) means something very different from what contemporary English speakers now call “emotions.” and that Edwards’s notions of affections came almost entirely from traditional Christian theology in general and the Reformed tradition in particular. Ryan J. Martin demonstrates that Christian theologians for centuries emphasized affection for God, associated affections with the will, and distinguished affections from passions; generally explaining affections and passions to be inclinations and aversions of the soul. This was Edwards’s own view, and he held it throughout his entire ministry. Martin further argues that Edwards’s view came not as a result of his reading of John Locke, or the pressures of the Great Awakening (as many Edwardsean scholars argue), but from his own biblical interpretation and theological education. By analysing patristic, medieval and post-medieval thought and the journey of Edwards’s psychology, Martin shows how, on their own terms, pre-modern Christians historically defined and described human psychology.
