Jonathan Edwards On Spiritual Pride And Judging Others
Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 29, 2026 (message contributor)
Jonathan Edwards, the preacher of the First Great Awakening in America, wrote this: ,
“The spiritually proud person is apt to find fault with other saints, that they are low in grace; and to be much in observing how cold and dead they are; and being quick to discern and take notice of their deficiencies. But the eminently humble Christian has so much to do at home, and sees so much evil in his own heart, and is so concerned about it, that he is not apt to be very busy with other hearts” (In “Some Thoughts Concerning the Present Revival of Religion in New England”)
