Bible Question: Has anybody read J.Edwards"Sinners in the hands of an angry God"? I think this is the most interesting and powerful sermon I've ever read.He's a little hard to get into but it's worth it, especially this sermon.I carry it in my Bible and once and a while I take itout and read it to refresh my memory about how thankful I am to be saved! |
Bible Answer: I have read through much of it and I heard it described as a beautiful picture of the grace of God. Most see it as "hellfile and brimstone" stuff, and it may be, but when you consider the sinfullness of man, the grace of God in this sermon is so evident. I recommend it to everybody as well as anything this great man of God has written - also see "God Makes Men Sensible of Their Misery Before He Reveals His Mercy and Love."
