Description

"You have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn rebel did his prince; and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into the fire every moment ... And now you have an extraordinary opportunity, a day wherein Christ has thrown the door of mercy wide open, and stands in calling and crying with a loud voice to poor sinners; a day wherein many are flocking to him, and pressing into the kingdom of God."

Guest preaching at a church in Connecticut, Jonathan Edwards delivered this sermon titled, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God. Sinners is an iconic sermon which characterizes both the times and the climate in New England during the Great Awakening and provides a unique glimpse into the theology of American Puritanism during the mid-18th century. Edwards' sometimes called "fire and brimstone" style of preaching was a well-known approach and would even render some benefit today for churches struggling with entrenched attitudes of spiritual lethargy.

    Undoubtedly this message will drive many away from the truth of Christ due to its blunt approach to human sinfulness. If you truly wish to challenge yourself then look beyond the typical watered down message of Gods unfailing love and see that His mercy abound's much more than even the most pleasant ideas we have of his love for us.
    I have never heard or read a message that speaks so plainly about how we clearly deserve the wrath of God. Only by His mercy do we barely escape our deserved punishment.
    Thank God for awakening us to the salvation that comes through Christ Jesus!
