The sermon“Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”by Edwards was given on July 8,1741.The video states that the sermon was detailed, graphing and brutal. Even people today who are use to reading such violence are terrified by what Edwards wrote. He wanted people to not take for granted the sweetness of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Edward pulled the colonies away for the ceremonial detached rituals and discourse that marked European Christianity. People that didn't really know him said that he was a stern loveless man but the people who where close to him said that he was "thoughtful, warm,sensitive, loving father,faithful husband, generous friend to the poor and distressed."
Edwards is trying to preach to the people how to reach salvation. The sermon must of been very vibe. It had such an impact in so many people. The sermon left a permanent on American life. Also his sermon was know because New England never forgave him for.It made people start thinking about their actions and what consequences might lie ahead. He prayed for his peoples salvation. He hoped that they would start to awaken in the reality of sin.
