Item description from seller

Rere second edition of this theological treatise by the famed philosopher and theologian. Duodecimo, original half-cloth. In good condition with bumping and rubbing, wear, and losses to the spine and rear panel. Jonathan Edwards (1703â€"1758) was a prominent American theologian, preacher, and philosopher of the 18th century, best known for his role in the First Great Awakening. A leading figure in Reformed theology, Edwards emphasized the sovereignty of God, human depravity, and the necessity of divine grace for salvation. 'An Humble Inquiry into the Rules of the Word of God' (1749) is a theological treatise that critiques the practice of admitting unregenerate individualsâ€"those who have not demonstrated a credible conversion experienceâ€"to the Lord’s Supper. Written in response to the more inclusive communion policies advocated by his grandfather, Solomon Stoddard, Edwards argues that participation in this sacred ordinance should be reserved for those who exhibit signs of genuine faith.
