The Works of Thomas Goodwin, vol. 10

Volume Ten is devoted to punishment, reprobation, and the state of all fallen individuals before God. Goodwin begins with a review of the doctrine of sin, and shows why all individuals are sinful before God and cannot be reconciled to God without God’s initiative and invitation. He confronts the honest reality that not all people want or receive God’s grace, given the pervasive nature of sin. The volume concludes with a rationale for God’s judgment and an excursus on hell.
