Jonathan Edwards’ Distinguishing Marks of a Work of the Spirit of God
Update: 2025-10-15
Description
In the sermon for October 12, 2025, Pastor Ruttan referred to six points by Jonathan Edwards about "testing the spirits" (1 John 4:1). Edwards lived in the 18th century and became one of America's most noted theologians.
One of Edwards enduring works was The Distinguishing Marks of a Work of the Spirit of God. It was about discernment: How do we know when the Spirit of God is at work, as opposed to something else, like an unclean spirit of demons?
Since our review of Edwards' points was quick, Pastor Ruttan said that he would reproduce some of Edwards insights here so interested parties could ponder them more fully.
