If we attentively consider what consequences follow from God's being the active cause of all human volitions, and compare these consequences with our internal sense, or feelings, we can judge whether he produces our sinful volitions or not. By sinful volitions, I mean, the mind's willing that, which is forbidden; or not willing that which is required by God. There can be no sinful volitions nor liberty of the mind in willing, if God be such cause. Our internal sense, or feelings, teaches us that we have sinful volitions, and that we will with liberty. We must believe our internal sense, or feelings. Edwards considers God, the negative cause of our sinful volitions. If volition has only a negative cause, then it has no cause, and it is no effect.
