Edwards...

I had to reread Descartes but still did not comprehend much of what he was saying; so I chose to write about Edward's Sermons. The section in Edward's Sermon Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God really got to me. "God's creatures are good, and were made for men to serve God with, and don't willingly subserve to any other purposes so directly contrary to their nature and end." For some reason it never occurred to me that every little thing was made to serve God. But, we ultimately use things God created to sin against Him. However, we don't have to necessarily worry like Edward states, "...you are thus in the hands of an angry God; 'tis nothing but his mere pleasure that keeps you from being this moment swallowed up in everlasting destruction..." God's love for us saves us from our great sin on this earth.
