To read Jonathan Edwards is to meet a flood of pure and overwhelming passion--passion for Christ, for people's souls, for godliness, for revival, for truth. Many of us read Jonathan Edwards's sermons in high school, and they can disturb and terrify. Yet Jonathan Edwards challenges us at a level deeper that writing style. In A Quest for Godliness J.I. Packer describes how Edwards 'uncoils a length of reasoning with a slow, smooth exactness that is almost hypnotic in its power to rivet attention on the successive folds of truth sliding out into view.' In his writings you will discover passion for God anew.
