Good man Quote by Erick John Blore
““From Lee’s extensive quotes of Edwards on page 152 we can gather that the reason some reject good thoughts that might order their minds aright is because of a disposition of the heart, or a “taste” for evil. The habit of a person’s mind is in accordance with his spiritual appetite, a good man’s mind will always suggest and supply good and holy thoughts to connect ideas and information to create a beautiful picture in one’s mind of God’s orderly universe (Himself at the helm) but the evil man’s mind is habitually disorganizing the things of this world or rather dis-integrating them from the knowledge of God, and so Edwards might say that his mind is not a cosmos but a chaos, or a conductor-less cacophony rather than a grand symphony.””
