Answer:

The answer to the question is that, Jonathan Edwards, as portrayed through his speech "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God", believed in a wrathful and vengeful God, and in the fact that man was only kept from going to hell and suffering because of the mercy of God, as long as people did what God wanted them to do. Sinners, are the very representation of that which goes against God´s will, and they are happy to be there. Edwards likens sinners to spiders because spiders are animals that are easily squashed and killed, which to Edwards is exactly what sinful people are expected to receive from God, when the time comes; to be squashed by God for having disobeyed him.

How to write a good essay on a theme of a book
ANTONII [103]
Literary themes are implied through elements of the text, so taking notes as you read helps you identify and gather the book's clues. Underlining interesting passages, jotting down questions, marking moments when characters have to make important or difficult decisions and recording instances of symbolism and foreshadowing will deepen your interpretation of the book while also building a toolbox of material to draw from when you write your essay.

Often a theme can be gleaned from an evaluation of the circumstances surrounding repeated objects or symbols in the story. The central theme can also be identified by examining the characters' strengths, weaknesses, values, thoughts and actions. The theme is not explicitly stated, so your notes are crucial to identifying and evaluating the book's central theme.

When you have determined the theme of the book, you can formulate a thesis statement. The thesis statement conveys a particular point about the theme and how it is manifested in the book.

You should always analyze what you’ve written. The analysis shows how the theme is illustrated in the text and why the theme matters, both in story and in the real world. Your analysis can examine why characters make specific choices, how the book's setting impacts the plot, what conflicts exist in the text and how those conflicts are resolved.

How can strong families make strong societies?
Alexxandr [17]

By working together to improve the things the community needs the most help with. For instance, litter. When large families work together, they usually clean up the roads, to make the community look nicer. Another example would be helping with school funds or anytime a student needs money for school. Strong families are the thing every community needs. I hope this helped!


Thanks!

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

First two & last two

Explanation:

The first two and last two have to do specifically with comparing reports and editorials. Those are the only two topics to be focused on, so other genres don't matter.
