The Works of Jonathan Edwards, Vol. 2

"Any modern empirical philosopher should welcome this sane, balanced, and acute study of the signs of a truly converted life. It is valuable to be reminded that not all the varieties of religious experience are experiences of true religion."—Journal of Theological Studies

"This volume, like its predecessor, is magnificently produced and carefully edited. The editor . . . provides over eighty pages of an Introduction which shows a profound and erudite analysis of Edwards’s treatment of the question, How shall the presence of the divine Spirit be discerned against the background of the Great Awakening in New England?, and contrives to give it a contemporary relevance."—Theology

"A splendid piece of interpretation, exegetical and contemporary."—Church History

"Mr. Smith's Introduction is an enlightening volume in itself and excellently shaped toward the understanding of the Treatise it introduces. It may well stimulate inquiry as to the continuing relevance of Edwards's thought to the religious dilemma of modern times."—American Literature
