jul 8, 1741 - Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God

Description:

Jonathan Edwards preaches his most famous sermon saying, "The God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect over the fire, abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked" (Edwards). He used sermons like these to awaken unconverted christens in his congregation.
