Explanation:

Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God is a sermon by Jonathan Edwards. This sermon tries to persuade people to repent by arguing that all of us are sinners. Edwards also argues that the judgement will indeed come, and that this will be much more horrible and painful than they can even imagine. In this speech, he also emphasizes that the judgement will be unexpected and sudden, and that each day is in fact only a display of God's mercy.
