“I should think myself in the way of my duty, to raise the affections of my hearers
as high as I possibly can, provided they are affected with nothing but truth, and
with affections that are not disagreeable to the nature of what they are affected
with.”

–Jonathan Edwards, _A Treatise Concerning the Religious Affections_, in Edwards,
_The Works of Jonathan Edwards_, Vol. 1 (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth, 1974), 238.
