Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Atonement: Discourses and Treatises by Edwards, Smalley, Maxcy, Emmons, Griffin, Burge, and Weeks; With an Introductory Essay There is a theory, often designated "the Edwardean theory" of the Atonement. It has various other and equally indefinite names. It is called the New theory, the New England theory, the New School theory, the Hopkinsian theory, the Governmental theory, the Consistent theory, &c. It is called "Edwardean," partly from the fact that certain germs of it are found in the writings of the elder Edwards, still more in the writings of his bosom friend, Hopkins, but chiefly from the fact that its more prominent advocates have been the so-called "successors of Edwards," and among them the more noted, perhaps, is his son. Dr. Jonathan Edwards. The defenders of this theory make no claim to have advanced any fundamental truths not previously advocated by evangelical divines; but they may be justly regarded as having, reduced old truths to a new system, - a system more consistent than had been previously drawn out; and also as having expressed the truths of this system in a distinctive, and in an unusually perspicuous style. They never counted themselves to have attained absolute perfection of doctrinal belief or statement, but they have probably come nearer to the perfect standard than have any other class of uninspired men. Their doctrine of the atonement is essentially the same with that of the elder Calvinists, but their theory of the atonement is more harmonious with itself, and with other parts of the evangelical faith; and their mode of expressing this theory is more precise, unequivocal, scientific.
