The images of the power of nature are particularly appropriate to Edward's message because it shows he is true in his preaching.
Jonathan Edward was a colonial Christian writer and preacher who wrote "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" a sermon he preached to his congregation. The sermon contains a description of Hell.

What effect does Thomas Paine hope The American Crisis will have on readers?

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

He hopes it will inspire them to keep fighting for independence.

Explanation:

He hopes it will inspire them to return home to England – this is not the right answer. Thomas Paine supports the fight against England, not return to it.

He hopes it will persuade them to emigrate to America – this is not the correct answer. Thomas Paine wrote for people who were already in America.

He hopes it will persuade them to draft the Declaration of Independence – this is the wrong answer. Thomas Paine published The American Crisis when the Declaration of Independence was already made (in 1776.)

He hopes it will inspire them to keep fighting for independence – this is the correct answer. Thomas Paine wrote the pamphlet to express liberal ideas and support the fight for freedom. In the conclusion, he even wrote that he sees “independence as America's natural right and interest”, directly supporting the fight for America’s independence and autonomy.
