Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God Follow Up Post
Today's world differs greatly from the days of the seventeen hundreds when Jonathan Edwards gave his earth shattering sermon. The world is a home to many different religions, not all of them believing in hell. I still believe this speech would have the power to start a world wide controversy if it had been given for the first time today. I imagine many would think it preposterous nothing but slander and empty words while another vast majority would find it standing room only come next Sunday. This sermon has the power to shake the world and still would today, this sermon spooked me and i am far from a highly religious puritan. After all who wouldn't be spooked by someone telling you point blank that god is waiting to kill you he detests you and might kill you at any moment and send you to hell, sorry but that's the way it is. I, personally would be pretty freaked out. After all one cant help think maybe hes right, maybe i am going to hell. No matter your religious affiliation this sermon is powerful enough to make one think, if not place that small seed of doubt and fear in your mind.
