No one can be perfect. Everyone is different in their own way. Most people on this planet are good people, yet many are bad. So let's throw the bad ones out, and focus on the good ones. Why will a good person fight with their parents, siblings, or a good <em>person </em>person fight with their daughters, sons, and siblings? Well, good people aren't perfect people, and even you know that. No matter how "good" and "helpful" you were today, to people around you, to your family, you always make a simple mistake. Maybe you meant to hold the door for people, and then you didn't see the other person and the door hit them in the face. Those are called <em>accidents, </em>yet you don't know why you make them. You plead to say you are sorry, and good people accept. I have an experience of my own. My parents were donating old things, and I blocked them from grabbing my old clothes and toys and books. I simply didn't want that to go. Now, as "good" as I might have been, this didn't help people- not at all. It only helped me. Now this might not have been out of meanness-most people don't be "bad" out of meanness. No, they are only thinking of themselves and not for others-now <em>this </em>is bad.

People can go from good to bad. You might start off as a sweet, innocent, loving child, but then transition from that to a slightly vain, rude, and have too many bad friends as a teenager. If no one helps you, as an  adult, what you had as a teenager doubled and you'll have a bad life. This might not be your fault. It might start simply by being a spoiled child. And if no one corrects you, then you do this. Signs are you might be a bit rude to your friends, family, and generally others around you. You'll stop being polite to everyone, and think only of yourself. You won't donate or even look at any one in the eye. You certainly won't care about your family. You'll think you are above everyone else. And if you show any of these signs, correct yourself.

"Sinners in the hands of an Angry God" what does this except suggest about Edwards’s opinion of society?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

He feels society in general, including many members of the congregation, is more sinful now than ever.

Explanation:

"Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is a sermon written by the American Christian theologian Jonathan Edwards, preached to his own congregation in Northampton, Massachusetts, to profound effect,[1] and again on July 8, 1741 in Enfield, Connecticut. The preaching of this sermon was the catalyst for the First Great Awakening.[2] Like Edwards' other works, it combines vivid imagery of Hell with observations of the world and citations of the scripture. It is Edwards' most famous written work, is a fitting representation of his preaching style,[3] and is widely studied by Christians and historians, providing a glimpse into the theology of the First Great Awakening of c. 1730–1755.

This was a highly influential sermon of the Great Awakening, emphasizing God’s wrath upon unbelievers after death to a very real, horrific, and fiery Hell. [4] The underlying point is that God has given humans a chance to confess their sins. It is the mere will of God, according to Edwards, that keeps wicked men from being overtaken by the devil and his demons and cast into the furnace of hell - “like greedy hungry lions, that see their prey, and expect to have it, but are for the present kept back [by God’s hand].” Mankind’s own attempts to avoid falling into the “bottomless gulf” due to the overwhelming “weight and pressure towards hell” are insufficient as “a spider's web would have to stop a falling rock“. This act of grace from God has given humans a chance to believe and trust in Christ.[5] Edwards provides much varied and vivid imagery to illustrate this main theme throughout.

Which statement BEST explains the relationship between these two
kupik [55]

Answer:

B). Chocolate is now a sweet treat that is  very popular in the United States.

Explanation:

The second statement most aptly relates the two given facts. It <u>states that chocolate has now become a sweet treat(implies that 'it wasn't sweet treat earlier despite being there since ancient times') and has become quite popular as reflected by huge consumption of '3 billion pounds' every year</u>. Thus, the second option amalgamates the two facts and displays that how the latter has led to former and how the former led to bring change in the latter by making it a popular sweet treat in the United States. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
