I’m pretty confident in my assertions. Both our affections and the objects of our affections define our religion as true or false. Or at least that’s what I’m expecting to discover while reading Jonathan Edward’s Religious Affections.
I’ve had my eye on this work for some time now to pick up and read. I’ve been told it’s challenging (for language and for content). Well, it came in the mail today, so I’m going to attempt to trek through it and see what wisdom and insight Edwards has for me. With Edwards being one of the great saints before me, and John Piper’s model, my hopes are pretty high.
Wish me luck, there are about 400 pages of tricky old English language ahead of me!
