The Joy of Enjoying God in Christ

"Do we understand religion as Edwards did? Specifically, do we understand Christian experience as the joy of enjoying God in Christ, framed by the struggles of a life of repentance, self-denial, and suffering in its various forms?" (J.I. Packer, "The Glory of God and the Reviving of Religion: A Study in the Mind of Jonathan Edwards," in A God Entranced Vision of All Things: The Legacy of Jonathan Edwards, eds. John Piper and Justin Taylor, 107).
