  • Jonathan Edwards is often considered to be one of the greatest theologians in American history. Yet many people today have only a cursory understanding of this leader from the First Great Awakening. In this classic series, Dr. Gerstner systematically surveys Edwards’ theological convictions and explores the enduring influence of this eighteenth-century preacher.
    This is the 1st in a series of messages by Dr. Gerstner on the theology of Jonathan Edwards. See other videos in the series: • The Theology of Jonath...

    R C Sproul's speech/cadence sounds so much like JG.

      That's because John Gerstner was R.C. Sproul's mentor

    I would have had to side with the Congregation, Even R.C. Sproul recognized there was a difference between Regeneration and a regeneration "Experience" But then I couldn't hold with any baptism of a baby. I am absolutely amazed how those who testify to hold to Biblical truth, to be so right in some areas, such as Soteriology, and yet be So wrong about so many other things.

    Edwards had his own theology, that around Universal Salvation heresy, and he refused the doctrine of Christ. I notice that Charles Grandison Finney wrote a work outlining the fundamentals of the faith and they were excellent, then in his ministry he denounced them as heresy

      Jonathan Edwards was a Universalist? Where did you get this idea? Listen to his sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." It’s all over TH-cam. In his sermon, he explains how Man is wicked, sinful, and deserving of judgment, and that only by repenting and returning to God can anyone hope to avoid Hell.

      @@intoreality1189 I have read this work, and you repeat the universal message of heresy of Universal Salvation, which first came into being by Popery, the antiChrist, that is in the sermon Sinners in the hands of an angry God, and what is more Moses is left out, the law to conviction is not heard, only an address to man to take a chance on salvation, that even Adolph Hitler, and the rest, had a chance of salvation if they but wished to take 'jesus' to their hearts.

Johnathan Edward’s was so far away from being a universalist it wasn’t even funny. He believed God chose a redeemed for himself before time began and the number was few
