註釋

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) entered the Collegiate School of Connecticut, which is now Yale University, at age thirteen. He graduated as valedictorian four years later and continued to distinguish himself as a great intellect throughout his ministry of pastoring, preaching, and writing in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. His powerful sermons helped feed the Great Awakening, a religious revival characterized by emotional conversions and startling manifestations of the Holy Spirit. Jonathan Edwards was a firm believer in Calvinism and the doctrine of predestination. His stern religious discipline stemmed from a conviction of God's sovereignty and of our total indebtedness to the redeeming love of God. This thirty-day devotional takes us beyond the "fire and brimstone" persuasions for which Edwards is noted to an appreciation of "the door of mercy" that Christ has thrown open for the believer.
