Question

What are Mr. Jonathan Edward's overall accomplishments and contributions??

Answer 1

Edwards became known widely for his fiery sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," which implored parishioners to embrace the teachings of Jesus Christ before they were banished to hell as nonbelievers. His sermons and writings embraced the idea of free will, along with a firm confidence in God's righteousness. During the fiery Great Awakening, Edwards became a lighting rod for a movement that became a widespread religious revival.
