Great book, formatting a little funky
Great stuff. My only complaint is that the formatting was funky on not a few pages. The words would stop at half a page, and leave a huge, empty space; and then they would pick up on the following page.

Hard Sayings and Bitter Pills
Although I was warned in the introduction that this book was potentially very wounding for an immature Christian, I entered into the work with confidence. I finished it a few days later, feeling as though I had escaped with my life. Edwards will wreck you with his very astute observations that even the most devote religious feelings can be counterfeited by Satan, but he will feed you steadily with God's word, and soon you will be thirsting for Grace as in a dry and thirsty land. This is not a how-to book, it is a serious reflection on man's inability to truly repent without God's grace. It is also remarkably easy to read for a book of its age, and a very worthy entry in the Christian Heritage series.

Nice book judging from the cover...
While the cover was nicely illustrated, the book itself is a very good look at what the order of our affections should be, and why they are necessary. This helps in understanding our emotions and what role they were designed to play in our lives.
I really appreciate this book.
