Book Description
Jonathan Edwards is generally acknowledged as one of the foremost American philosophers. Edwards on God offers a historically informed philosophical analysis of his arguments for the existence and nature of God. The book begins with a characterization of Edwards’s intellectual profile and philosophical theology. It then explicates and evaluates his arguments from the beginning of existence, design, ‘being in general’, virtue as benevolence, and his account of natural and moral divine attributes. There is no other such treatment of Edwards’s metaphysics of divinity. This volume will be primarily relevant to philosophers, historians and theologians.

Book Description
The book you now hold in your hands contains nearly everything the great American puritan Jonathan Edwards (1703-58) ever wrote on the book of Romans. It is collated into a verse-by-verse Bible commentary. Pastors, theologians, historians, and Bible study leaders will find a treasure of biblical insight along with practical application, as one of the great theologians of the Christian church expounds the book that Martin Luther called the "most important piece in the New Testament." Jonathan Edwards' expository genius is clearly evident in both the depth of his biblical insight as well as his logic. Readers will be encouraged and edified as they delve deeply into the book of Romans with Jonathan Edwards by their side.

Book Description
God-Haunted World is a provocative presentation of a neglected part of Jonathan Edwards's theology. In a world in which for all practical purposes Christians often see nature the same way their secular neighbors do-as a machine operating according to impersonal mechanical laws-Edwards's worldview is relevant and timely. The universe has not only been created by God; it is literally kept by the power of God every nanosecond and it scintillates with revelation and insight for those who have eyes to see. Edwards's world is a place where there is no mute fact-everything, from insects to elephants, from molecules to mountains, has a story to tell. Moreover, if God were to withdraw his sustaining power, all of created reality would collapse into nothingness-every second is a divine dance between creation and nothingness-and the present world is an incredible tribute to God's faithfulness or in the words of the refrain of Psalm 136: his unfailing love. Drawing on the resources of Scripture, Church history, Edwards's writings, and other creative Evangelical theologians, God-Haunted World makes a compelling case for a renewed appreciation of our natural world. God-Haunted World is a visual exploration of the nexus between Scripture and Nature in the theology of Jonathan Edwards. Methods of data visualization and associative thinking have been used to illustrate the vast network of Edwards's emblematic thought.

Book Description
Kyle Strobel mines the work of Jonathan Edwards in search of the Puritan minister?s personal vision for spiritual development. "In Edwards," Strobel writes, "we find a grasp of spiritual formation that tries to balance deep thought with deep passion . . . a life of love with the contemplation of divine things."

Book Description
Jonathan Edwards is widely hailed as the greatest theologian in American history. In Edwards on the Christian Life, Dane Ortlund invites us to explore the great eighteenth-century pastor's central passion: God's resplendent beauty. Whether reflecting on the nature of love, the preeminence of Scripture, or the glory of the natural world, the concept of beauty stood at the heart of Edwards's theology and permeated his portrait of the Christian life. Clear and engaging, this accessible volume will inspire you to embrace Edwards's magnificent vision of what it means to be a Christian: enjoying and reflecting of the beauty of God in all things. Part of the Theologians on the Christian Life series.

Book Description
It has long been thought that Edwards's polemical arguements were aimed against Arminianism -- a doctrine that denied the Calvinist idea of predestination. In this book, Gerald McDermott shows that Edwards's real target was a larger and more influential one, namely deism -- the belief in a creator God who does not intervene in His Creation. To Edwards's mind, deism was the logical conclusion of most, if not all, schemes of divinity that appropriated Enlightenment tenets. McDermott argues that Edwards was an inclusivist who came to realize that salvation was open to peoples beyond the hearing of the Christian gospel.
