Religious Affections

How Man's Will Affects His Character Before God

Quite possibly, one of the most important books ever written by the greatest American theologian. Some of the questions asked are "What is the nature of true religion? What are the signs of a true revival? How is the heart changed? Edwards used his pulpit and his leadership of the Great Awakening to pen one of the most challenging and inquisitive books written.©2007 Jonathan Edwards (P)2007 christianaudio.com

Greatest work ever written

Do your soul a favor and listen to this masterpiece . I chose to listen at 0.65 speed. The density and profundity of Edwards insights is staggering.

Important book

Edwards is difficult to read but contemplation on his writings is important for anyone who would like to understand the nature of genuine faith.

This is a hard but beneficial listen

It's hard to follow the writing itself seems to make hard work of things by being really thick, but the content therein is challenging and good for Christians who are keen not to be deceived in their own heart. I read the first part of this audiobook and went to a bible study, and their found I was picking up on things that were esteemed as a sign or imprint or imparting of God and his grace in our eyes, but this book explains how it is not always the case.

Power House of Faith and Truth

I highly recommend this book for more mature Christian's as it is full of meat.

Not as valuable as I had hoped for the time spent.

Unfortunately I didnt find this work as helpful as other Christian classics. While it was certainly a good extended discussion of the single topic of the unique heart affections of the Christian, it seemed very repetitive. Edwards was anything but sussinct in his writtings. I much preferred books like Calvin's Institutes even though they were 10x the length. I believe the narriator did a great job with this book even though it was not as good as I had hoped.
