Jonathan Edwards Nature of true virtue
"True virtue most essentially consists in benevolence to being in general. Or perhaps, to speak more accurately, it is that consent, propensity and union of heart to being in general, which is immediately exercised in a general good will. "
Edwards nature of true virtue talked a lot about the heart and love and even beauty. He establishes that true virtue however, doesnt come from self-love or any type of selflessness. All of the love that is expressed should have some connection to or through God.
