I would answer with an emphatic YES, but some are not so sure: Was Jonathan Edwards Reformed?

Hi Seth,
Jeff isn't saying that JE wasn't Reformed, but he is asking an important question. He does make a distinction between "narrowly" and "broadly." Jeff's post is worth reading.

I suppose it's a question of just how "narrowly" we define "Reformed." Must one be Presbyterian to be Reformed? Historically, the answer is no. But, if we define reformed as "holding to the WCF", then it has to be yes. It's just a shame how many get left out of being "reformed" if that is how narrowly we define the term.

Of corse Im reformed, how could I not be. Have you not read my wounderful treatise on "Sinners in the hands of an angry God"?

If someone will explain to me how to post a new thread (I go away away and someone changed the locks eh?) I'll post cover art and link for a new book that explores this question in some depth.
