The Works of Thomas Goodwin, Volume 10 of 12

The book delves into the profound impact of sin on human nature, particularly focusing on the corruption of the soul's faculties, starting with the understanding, which is depicted as darkened and unable to grasp spiritual truths. It emphasizes the necessity of divine intervention for sanctification, as highlighted in a prayer by Paul for believers to be wholly preserved. The text draws from Scripture to illustrate the extent of sin and grace, underscoring the need for God’s active role in restoring spiritual clarity and integrity to the faithful.
