His audience was mostly puritan as was the case in the 18th century. His audience was probably scared mindless because his sermons usually included scary and vivid description of suffering, hell, sins, the devil, which was all supposed to scare you into being a better christian.

Jonathen Edwards delivered " Sinners in The hands of an Angry God" during the Great Awakening, a period in which religion assumed great importance in people's lives. Edward's sermon might have given faithful members of the church a sense of security and satisfaction, and reaffirmed the value of their attendance to church. Those who did not belong to the church, and those whose lives, according to Edwards, were liable to be cause for punishment might have felt fear, guilt, and doubt. Those who did not believe what Edwards said might have a strong sense of animosity to Edwards on hearing the sermon.

Proctor thinks that the strict rules the Puritan government asked their people to follow were untrue.The most important thing for them was respect and reputation but it did not mean that to be well reputed was a sign of being honest and a true son of God.There was jealosy and envy in such a society and proctor was not a person with such feelings in his heart.The corruption in the government meant that their members covered their sins but pointed others as sinful wrongdoers who deserved to go to hell.Sicne the themes are lies, deceit and the danger of ideology , his integrity shown in act 4 is shown through his feelings and the way he points them out.
