    An oratory in literature is a form of public speaking that is formal. ¨Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God¨ was written by Jonathan Edwards to persuade and scare Puritans that weren't connected with God very much. Edwards wrote this piece of literature by himself as a six hour sermon and terrified the audience by the very vague and colorful language he used in it. Due to the persuasiveness, the emotionally appealing text that addressed the needs and concerns of the audience, and the use of colorful and rhythmic language ¨Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God¨ is classified as an oratory.…

    It was night time when the Romans came with a group of large men to arrest him (In the laws that the Romans established for trials, a man could not be convicted during the night time nor could any trials take place) and they expected him to be fleeing from them which is why they brought lanterns, torches, and weapons. When Jesus gave himself up to the group of soldiers pursuing him, he asked them to let his disciples go freely and his disciples did not argue with Jesus’s request and they abandoned him, leaving him all alone. Which leads to believe that his followers were not concerned with what was going to happen to Jesus but instead were more concerned with their own personal well-being. Not saying that they meant for Jesus to be captured or that they had no concern for their leaders own safety but that they were just scared in the overwhelming odds of them versus the horde of roman soldiers. The reason that the Jewish patriots showed hostility towards Jesus summed up to a number of things, the claims that he made, (he claimed to be the son of god or the messiah but many of them did not believe him and thought he was lying, and if he was truly the messiah it meant that his power outweighed their authority which they did not want.) the deeds that he made outraged them, (when they witnessed Jesus heal a man who was…

    The anger and loss in faith present in these writings, causes the school officials to display significant concern for Matthew. One of Matthew’s anger-infused works is an essay in which he expressed his feelings on Luke's death. He stated, “And those troglodytes who orchestrated that claim to serve the architect of love? ...Would he [God] actually forgive them on nothing but strength of a Sunday prayer? No, those dudes are tumbling toward a brimstone bumble bath, and if it meant they’d fall in a little sooner, I’d happily give them a push.”(166). These words evince the deep anger, and yearning for revenge, held within Matthew. It also shows that he posses anger to anyone who has faith, or potentially had reason to offend his brother. This anger, deeply rooted in past events, also proves Matthew’s lack of faith and loss of hope, which is the reoccurring theme in…

    He realized that it’s hard to love your enemies. He realized that it’s difficult to love those persons who seek to defeat you, those persons who say evil things about you. He realized that it was painfully hard, pressingly hard. But he wasn’t playing. And we cannot dismiss this passage as just another example of Oriental hyperbole, just a sort of exaggeration to get over the point. This is a basic philosophy of all that we hear coming from the lips of our Master. Because Jesus wasn’t playing; because he was serious. We have the Christian and moral responsibility to seek to discover the meaning of these words, and to discover how we can live out this command, and why we should live by this…

    “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” is a sermon given by Johnathan Edwards, a preacher and a theologian. Published in 1741, Edwards’ sermon is one of most defining pieces of literature during the First Great Awakening in the United States. The Day of Doom is a poem written by Michael Wigglesworth, a Puritan minister. The poem became wildly popular in Puritan New England when it was published in 1662. Both texts discuss the themes of divine judgement and punishment. Edwards’ sermon illustrates that it is God’s will that keeps evil men from being sent down to hell. Wigglesworth describes the Day of Judgement in which God will decide who will be saved who will be sent to hell. These pieces of religious literature both describe a harsh God who has ultimate judgement and no mercy when it comes to punishment.…
