37. Jonathan Edwards: Reformed Apologist--Scott Oliphint
- www.reformed.org
- Jonathan Edwards: Reformed Apologist.
- Though when Jonathan Edwards penned these words he was discussing morality, particularly of the Sabbath, his exclamation could just as easily be applied to the debates over his own words. Due to the sheer volume of Edwards' publications as well as the depth of his insight, there seems to be no end to the potential debates with regard to the "real Edwards" on a given topic or position. 2 Perhaps Jonathan Edwards' many exegetes are the clearest example of the influence of one's presuppositions on any interpretive endeavor. ...
- First, I will be attempting faithfully to explicate Edwards with a view toward a Reformed apologetic. More specifically, I will look briefly at Edwards' ontology and then a bit more specifically at his view of man, particularly as that view relates to the unregenerate. Secondly, in explicating such a view, I will be attempting to distinguish Edwards' insights from a so-called "classical" approach to apologetics and further to incorporate his work into a presuppositional or transcendental framework of apologetics. I am not trying to ask whether or not Edwards was a Van.

- 2 Note, for example, Fiering's contention that Edwards was no Lockean (contra Perry Miller) in Norman Fiering, "The Rationalist Foundations of Jonathan Edwards's Metaphysics," in Jonathan Edwards and the American Experience (ed. ... Elwood, The Philosophical Theology of Jonathan Edwards (New York: Columbia University Press, 1960), who seems to want to make of Edwards a neo-orthodox theologian, as one untimely born. Speaking of one of Edwards' arguments, the author says, "It is an argument from revelation, though not revelation as authority but as living encounter" (p. ...
- When I began to study Edwards' view of man, I suspected that Edwards was, at bottom, too heavily influenced by secular rationalistic thought in his view of man. Having looked closer, however, I am now convinced that my suspicion of Edwards' thought in this area was unwarranted. Though I began thinking Edwards to be non-Reformed in some significant anthropological areas, it seems to me now that, by and large, he was a Reformed, presuppositional apologist.
- Rather, in seeking to understand Edwards' view of man, because he was a Reformed theologian, I will inevitably be asking if such a view is, in fact, Reformed, and therefore if it will incorporate itself into a Reformed apologetic. In so doing, I am well aware of the fact that interpreters of Edwards, as well as of Van Til, will see me missing the mark on one or both counts. I am convinced, however, that Edwards' insights can offer stimulating applications to Reformed, Van Tilian apologetics and also that the symbiotic nature of the two positions will provide mutual health to both sides.

- "The key to an understanding of Jonathan Edwards is that he was a man who put faithfulness to the Word of God before every other consideration. ... It was this which Edwards rejected. ... " (Iain Murray, Jonathan Edwards: A New Biography, page 471).
- When one comes to the life and writings of one Jonathan Edwards of Northampton, Massachusetts, however, one is faced with an overabundance of material. A voracious reader and writer, Edwards has left to us not only the books published during his lifetime, but hundreds of hand-written sermons, as well as personal journals and his "Miscellanies" from which the researcher can cull countless jewels. But here the very immensity of the task of even trying to review Edwards comes into view. ... It comes to us in many formsbooks, treatises, sermonsand given that all the manuscripts available have not even been put into print, no one can claim to know Edwards in an exhaustive way. (In this work, the primary source of information is to be found in the two volume edition of The Works of Jonathan Edwards printed in England in 1834, and currently republished by the Banner of Truth Trust). At the same time, a brief review runs the danger of misrepresenting Edwards' viewpoint for simply lacking all the materials or the time to dig through what is available.
- The methodology of this paper, then, is designed to "make the best" of the fact that there is simply far too much Edwards available for review! Hence, to attempt to present a balanced and accurate viewpoint of the theology of Jonathan Edwards, this work will pursue its goal in two ways. First, the primary emphasis of Edwards' thinking will be identified, and this topic will become the guiding consideration in materials to be reviewed. ... One primary text, Edwards' A Dissertation Concerning the End for Which God Created the World, though published posthumously (1765), was certainly intended for publication by Edwards himself, and hence represents his "literary" style. A number of sermons will be examined, for here Edwards truly communicates to the people of his church the doctrines and beliefs that to him were central to the Christian faith. ... By this twofold approach it is hoped that an accurate, balanced presentation of Jonathan Edwards as theologian and Christian man can be presented.
