John Winthrop aimed to attract an audience that was already Christian, while John Edwards aimed to attract an audience that had turned away from Christianity.
<h3>How did they do it?</h3>
- John Winthrop wrote about charity among Christians.
- He showed that God is pleased with those who help one another and that this brings blessings to all.
- John Edwards wrote about the wrath of God on those who stray from his ways.
- He showed how those who do not do the will of God are severely punished.
The goals of these two authors were very different and were associated with the moment in which they lived. Winthrop was traveling with other Englishmen to form the first English colony. He knew that mutual help would be very important because everyone would have to face the unknown, which could be very scary.
Edwards, on the other hand, was experiencing a time of church revival, as many had not turned away. For this reason, he showed how the departure from Christianity creates tyrannical people, who do not obey God's desires and are punished powerfully.
