Resolutions of Jonathan Edwards: #44

44. Resolved, that no other end but religion, shall have any influence at all on any of my actions; and that no action shall be, in the least circumstance, any otherwise than the religious end will carry it. Jan.12, 1723.

I suppose that word "religion" or "religious" ought to be translated to our modern phrase, "devotion to God"?
