The correct answer is II. Spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.

Explanation: In "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Jonathan Edwards, the author uses a metaphor to explain how low God considers sinners to be, and that they are weak in the face of his wrath. Edwards compares spiders to sinners because of how weak and loathesome they are, and the spider's web represents the sinner's congregation. The rock falling through the web represents God's strength and gravity towards sinners.

Topic: Buying Food

  One day, I quickly ran to the market to grab some grub(food). I slowly grabbed the bag of chips from the isles and happily skipped to the counter. The cashier quietly awaited for the payment. I furiously looked into my pockets for my money. Quickly scattering my pockets I've come to noticed I had no money. I quickly raced outside the door, throwing the food on the floor. I sadly cried thinking how i lost my money.
