Insight - Jonathan Edwards and Work

In 1748 Jonathan Edwards wrote a sermon titled


One of the subtitles and content is

All Moral Knowledge and Business Skill from God

God is the author of all knowledge and understanding whatsoever. He is the author of knowledge that is obtained by human learning: he is the author of all moral prudence, and of the knowledge and skill that men have in their secular business. Thus it is said of all in Israel that were wise-hearted, and skilled in embroidering, that God had filled them with the spirit of wisdom, Exodus 28:3.

 Let's not forget that the subject of business and work have been on the hearts, minds, lips and pens for much longer than just our own existence.
