Far from being an overview of the Bible, Edwards' book was unique for his time in that he attempted to write a systematic theology using an "entire new method". That new method may not seem very strange today, but what Jonathan Edwards ended up doing was the first treatise of biblical theology in the history of the Christian church. By doing this, he wanted to let everyone know that the Bible has one message and one purpose - to let humanity know of the one plan of redemption, that has been unfolded in the Scriptures from the first to the last page of the Bible. And that one plan has in its view one Person - Jesus Christ. To Edwards, everything in the history of the world was planned in the light of "the great work of redemption by Jesus Christ...the grand design of all God's designs." You have here a Christ-centered biblical theology and history of the world, centered on Christ's work of redemption, and penned by one of the greatest theologians in the history of the church.Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) was an American revivalist preacher, philosopher, and Reformed theologian. He played a critical role in the First Great Awakening in America. He is best known for his famous sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God".This book has been originally published in 1773. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and updated for modern readers.
