Depravity

Here is a question that Mark Dever attributes to Jonathan Edwards. Edwards didn't actually phrase it as a question, he stated it in the affirmative in Men Naturally are God's Enemies in his Works, Volume II.

"If God were off of his throne... and you were standing there and you knew that you could seize the throne of heaven and God could do nothing about it, would you do it?"

I *think* it was Edwards who called sin "Cosmic Treason against a Holy God"... but I may be wrong.
