Interesting Introduction to an Inspiring Intellect!

Gerstner's introduction to the theology of Jonathan Edwards will prove very helpful to those wanting to map their way through the lofty heights of Edwards' own writings. With quotations from sermons and books, Gerstner summarizes into bite-size portions Edwards' thought on eleven important theological subjects: 1. Reason and Revelation; 2. The Trinity; 3. Man and His Fall; 4. Sin; 5. Atonement; 6. Regeneration; 7. Justification; 8. Sanctification; 9. The Latter-day Glory and Eschatology; 10. Hell; and 11. Heaven. For those who have bought into the literature book caricature of Edwards as a "hell-fire and brimstone" evangelist, this will be an eye-opener. One discovers, instead, that the man behind "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" was a warm-hearted, sharp-minded, philosophically-inclined GENIUS! No student of theology should be without this helpful book.
