Ineed finding the tone of this text-

"o sinner! consider the fearful danger you are in: it is a great furnace of wrath, a wide and bottomless pit, full of fire of wrath, voked and incensed a much against you, as against many of the d*mned in h*ll. you hang by a slender thread, with the flames of divine wrath flashing about it and ready every moment to singe it and burn it asunder, and you to keep off the flames of wrath, nothing of your own, nothing that you have ever done, nothing that you can do to induce god to spare you one moment." (jonathan edwards, sinners in the hands of an angry god)

the tone of this passage can best be described as:
threatening
divine
angry
satirical

Threatening.

Explanation:

The excerpt exemplifies the typical puritan mindset and is specific to the sinners as a warning of the consequences to be faced for disobeying the almighty or his orders. The tone is threatening as it displays the wrath of God and the hideous punishments like "hang by a slender thread", "burn it asunder" and suggests that nothing could save you from your evil deeds. It frightens the people with the falling actions caused by the unforgiving nature of God. The puritans had a list of do's and don'ts if one denies it there was a separate list that includes the sanction of trials as displayed here. Thus, the tone is threatening.
