    642 Words  | 3 Pages

    “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” is known as the climax of The Great Awakening, which was the biggest religious movement in history. In 1741, Jonathan Edwards preached his sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”, to his church, which left his listeners crying and even contemplating suicide.

Edward’s message to his audience was that there is a wrathful God who will punish all who have not had a change of heart. He portrays this through imagery, repetition, and figurative language.

  • Sinners In The Hand Of An Angry God By Jonathan Edwards

    708 Words  | 3 Pages

    Diction choices such as “hell”, “anger”, “wrath”, and “misery” are all signs of a threatening tone. These particular tone words, and others used throughout the text, force the audience to accept God’s judgment and modify their current lifestyles. The Implication of hell similarly bolsters the scare tactics in this message; thus forcing the congregation to keep their lives nevermore the same. Furthermore, Edwards employs a structural organization that makes it so the last paragraph of the essay serves the idea of a threatening tone as it states a final warning that “every one that is out of christ” is waiting for “wrath to come.” This final warning serves as an ominous statement that frightens the audience into taking Edwards’ message to heart.

    “Ecclesiastes presents a naturalistic vision of life, one that sees life through distinctively human eyes, but ultimately recognizes the rule and reign of God in the world,” according to Chuck Swindoll. The book of Revelation emphasizes that Christ will return someday to establish his kingdom of justice, and righteousness, and make all the wrong happening stop. Ray Bradbury emphasizes these books from the bible to demonstrate how Montag’s remembrance of the books is used to travel through the world in hopes to use that knowledge to change the world’s interpretation on what books do to a person’s thoughts. Because the terminology of Ecclesiastes is assembling or to gather from one person in life, and the meaning of Revelation is uncovering

    Written in a culture divergent and foreign to modern audiences, the Book of Revelation is a challenging text to interpret. With rich symbolism and visions, which were intrinsic to the first hearers, this book is classified under the label of an Apocalypse.

The term Apocalypse is translated into ‘revelation’ or ‘unveiling’ (Keener 31). Composed of numerous allusion to the Old Testament, the Book of Revelation was originally sent to the seven churches in Asia Minor to be read in the context of liturgy concerning the imminent future (Filho, 214).
