Jonathan Edwards

Edward’s sermon begins with a thesis – God is all- powerful and keeps you from harm He attempts to persuade his congregation through fear Humans, his congregation, take their good health as a sign that they will be kept from hell In reality, if it were not for God, all would fall straight to Hell “…wickedness is as heavy as lead” A simile comparing wickedness to a tangible (touchable) item Lead drops just as people weighted with sin would “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”

Man’s attempt to keep out of Hell is ineffective Edwards compare it to a spider’s web stopping a falling rock – impossible Imagery – black clouds of God’s wrath, full of storm and thunder (meant to instill fear) God keeps the storm from rushing upon you The wrath of God is like great waters dammed; His power, over time, builds God may temporarily withhold his vengeance, but your guilt builds greater and greater

God is the only one that keeps you from death YOU=spider, loathsome insect, hateful venomous serpent If you are not born again (achieve grace) then you are in danger of receiving God’s wrath Not all people have the opportunity to repent for their sins; those that do are lucky Edwards end with hope for his congregation to receive salvation
