Description: Life and work of 18th century American philosophical theologian; by William Wainwright.
Jonathan Edwards (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) First published Tue Jan 15, 2002; substantive revision Wed Oct 3, 2012 Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758) is widely acknowledged to be America's most important and original philosophical theologian. His work as a whole is an expression of two themes — the absolute sovereignty of God and the beauty of God's holiness. The first is articulated in Edwards' defense of theological determinism, in a doctrine of occasionalism, and in his insistence that physical objects are only collections of sensible “ideas†while finite minds are mere assemblages of “thoughts†or “perceptions.†As the only real cause or substance underlying physical and mental phenomena, God is “being in general,†the “sum of all being.â€
