Starting in the upcoming week I will be doing a series of posts on The Resolutions of Jonathan Edwards. These 70 resolutions are a great reminder and challenging tool as we strive for holiness in our lives. This post will launch the series that will be captured twice per week until it is completed. I would encourage my readers to get a copy of The Resolutions and follow along with me as I work
“The sense I had of divine things, would
often of a sudden as it were, kindle up a
sweet burning in my heart; an ardor of my
soul, that I know not how to express.
Not long after I began to experience these
things… I walked abroad alone, in a solitary
place in my father’s pasture, for contemplation.

BEING SENSIBLE THAT I AM UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT GOD' S HELP, I DO HUMBLY ENTREAT HIM BY HIS GRACE TO ENABLE ME TO KEEP THESE RESOLUTIONS, SO FAR AS THEY ARE AGREEABLE TO HIS WILL, FOR CHRIST' S SAKE.Remember to read over these Resolutions once a week.1. Resolved, that I will do whatsoever I think to be most to God' s glory, and my own good, profit and pleasure, in the whole of my duration, without any consideration of the time, whether now, or never so many myriads of ages hence. Resolved to do whatever I think to be my duty and most for the good and advantage of mankind in general. Resolved to do this, whatever difficulties I meet with, how many soever, and how great soever.2. Resolved, to be continually endeavoring to find out some new contrivance and invention to promote the aforementioned things.3.
