Freedom of the WillCosimo, Inc., 1 มิ.ย. 2007 - 368 หน้า "Considered by many to be the greatest book by enormously influential American preacher and theologian JONATHAN EDWARDS (17031758), this provocative 1754 work explores the necessity of Gods grace for the salvaging of the damaged will of humanity and argues that free will is an extension of and connected to the grace of God.

Freedom of the Will will enthrall and challenge serious readers of the Bible as well as students of theologys impact on American history. " |
