Book Description:

Many scholars believe this work, published in 1754, is the most important argument against Arminianism published in America.

The Freedom of the Will is divided into four parts:

  • The first deals with terminology; the nature and determination of the will; the meaning of necessity, impossibility, and contingency; the distinction between natural and moral necessity; and the nature of moral agency and liberty.
  • The second considers the possibility of self-determination.
  • The third analyzes divine agency regarding human beings and the world.
  • In the conclusion, Edwards anticipates the reception the work will receive.

Author:

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) became pastor of the church at Northampton, Massachusetts, in 1729 and remained there for twenty-three years before moving on to missionary work in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

Endorsement:

"Pelagianism has a death grip on the modern church. Perhaps the most important refutation of this distinctive is Edwards' Freedom of the Will. I believe this is the most important theological work ever published in America."
--R.C. Sproul
