A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are separated by only a comma. Looking at the sentences, the first one is fine because it is an independent clause followed by a dependent clause. The third sentence is really one independent clause with an appositive to describe the friend. The fourth sentence is just one independent clause. The second sentence though has two independent clauses. You can tell because in the first part of the sentence before the comma, there is a subject and verb; the second part also contains a subject and verb meaning they are not dependent on each other and therefore a comma splice.

In at least 200 words, explain the central message of Edwards's sermon.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The sermon contains three key themes: Corrupt sinners face a fearful judgment. Time is short for the unrepentant: God's righteous wrath will come suddenly and unexpectedly. It's only God's free choice that extends the day of mercy and provides another opportunity to respond to his call.

Jonathan Edwards's sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" provides a glimpse into the way sermons were written and delivered during the Great Awakening. In this text, Edwards argues that nothing keeps wicked men out of hell, except for the pleasure of God. He is able to cast any person, at any point, into hell. God is as angry at the wicked people on Earth as he is at the wicked people in Hell, and so, they should repent soon, as they never know when their own judgement day might come.
