More quotes by Jonathan Edwards
Intend to live in continual mortification, and never to expect or desire any worldly ease or pleasure.
Jonathan Edwards
Christian practice is that evidence which confirms every other indication of true godliness.
Jonathan Edwards
The wrath of God burns against them, their damnation does not slumber the pit is prepared, the fire is made ready, the furnace is now hot, ready to receive them the flames do now rage and glow.
Jonathan Edwards
Resolved, to confess frankly to myself all that which I find in myself, either infirmity or sin and, if it be what concerns religion, also to confess the whole case to God, and implore needed help.
Jonathan Edwards
Nature is God's greatest evangelist.
Jonathan Edwards
Sincere friendship towards God, in all who believe him to be properly an intelligent, willing being, does most apparently, directly, and strongly incline to prayer and it no less disposes the heart strongly to desire to have our infinitely glorious.
Jonathan Edwards
Resolved, never to do anything which I should be afraid to do if it were the last hour of my life.
Jonathan Edwards
A truly humble man is sensible of his natural distance from God of his dependence on Him of the insufficiency of his own power and wisdom and that it is by God's power that he is upheld and provided for, and that he needs God's wisdom to lead and guide him, and His might to enable him to do what he ought to do for Him.
Jonathan Edwards
Haste and escape for your lives, look not behind you, escape to the mountain, lest you be consumed.
Jonathan Edwards
Almost every natural man that hears of hell, flatters himself that he shall escape it.
Jonathan Edwards
Truth is the agreement of our ideas with the ideas of God.
Jonathan Edwards
The God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider... abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked: his wrath towards you burns like fire he looks upon you as worthy of nothing else, but to be cast into the fire.
Jonathan Edwards
Every Christian that goes before us from this world is a ransomed spirit waiting to welcome us in heaven.
Jonathan Edwards
Being sensible that I am unable to do any thing without God's help, I do humbly entreat Him, by His grace, to enable me to keep these Resolutions, so far as they are agreeable to His will, for Christ's sake.
Jonathan Edwards
No degree of speculative knowledge of religion is any certain sign of true piety.
Jonathan Edwards
God is glorified not only by His glory being seen, but by its being rejoiced in.
Jonathan Edwards
Of all the knowledge that we can ever obtain, the knowledge of God, and the knowledge of ourselves, are the most important.
Jonathan Edwards
True boldness for Christ transcends all, it is indifference to the displeasure of either friends or foes. Boldness enables Christians to forsake all rather than Christ, and to prefer to offend all rather than to offend Him.
Jonathan Edwards
One of these grand defects, as I humbly conceive, is this, that children are habituated to learning without understanding.
Jonathan Edwards
To mark all that I say in conversation, merely to beget in others, a good opinion of myself, and examine it.
