How can I love the truth without becoming a Pharisee?

Summary

The sermon emphasizes understanding ourselves as whole beings, encompassing both truth and what Edwards termed "affections," a sensing of spiritual sweetness. Citing Calvin's "sensus suavitatus" and the Psalmist's hunger for God's word, it contrasts this with the Pharisees' aversion to truth. The practical takeaway is that embracing God's truth, with its inherent value, ultimately leads to worship.
