Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God And Other Writings

Description for SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY GOD AND OTHER WRITINGS by Jonathan Edwards:

SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY GOD is unquestionably one of the most famous sermons in American history. By the time Edwards exhorted his congregation with this sermon, the moral state of the foundling New England was in serious decline. To a people who saw no need for repentance, Edwards spoke of God holding them "over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect, over the fire." He proclaimed clearly that ll are sinners and in need of repentance before the Holy God. From 1727 until 1750, Edwards boldly and faithfully proclaimed the word of God to is Northampton, Massachusetts, Church with over 300 people being converted in a single year. However, sin and repentance were not the only topics Jonathan Edwards fed to his congregation. The work collected in this volume reveal the depth and insights of a brilliant man of God. Topics such as the Sovereignty of God, The Free Will of Man, and The Trinity are "rightly divided" with intellectual integrity and a profound passion for the living God.
