Jonathan Edwards (October 5, 1703 –
March 22, 1758) was a
colonial American
Congregational preacher, theologian, and
missionary to
Native
Americans. Edwards "is widely acknowledged to
be America's most important and original philosophical
theologian." His work is very broad in scope, but he is often
associated with his defense of
Calvinist theology, the
metaphysics of theological determinism, and
the
Puritan heritage. His famous sermon
"Sinners
in the Hands of an Angry God," is credited for
starting the
First
Great Awakening. Edwards is widely known for
his books
Religious Affections and
The
Freedom of the Will. He died from a smallpox
inoculation shortly after beginning the presidency at the
College of New Jersey (later to be named Princeton University).
Edwards is widely regarded as America's greatest theologian.
