Few voices in history have been used by God to stir a nation to revival like Jonathan Edwards. He was one of the most powerfully anointed preachers in that unstoppable wave of repentance and return to righteousness known as the First Great Awakening. He started, as many others to follow, in a small rural church, and through the fiery and unforgettable Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God (which is in this volume), his ministry sparked and the world was never the same.

Through close engagement with early Christian writings, patristic theology, and the controversies surrounding figures such as Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Origen, Eusebius of Caesarea, and Athanasius, this book explores how Christian thinkers understood the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit before the doctrine was formally defined in later orthodoxy.

The Theses focus on three main issues: selling forgiveness through indulgences, the pope’s claimed power of forgiveness, and the damage indulgences caused to sinners. The first thesis states, "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said, "Repent," he willed the entire life of believers to be one of repentance."
