I remember reading this in high school, but now, much later, I must admit, this sermon is powerful. You cannot save yourself it is the blood of Jesus that covers me. That is my hope that I cling to.

@@XinthoseAnd, 1 year after your post, babies are still murdered each and every day. All they ‘say’ has been changed is late term, but they still do it daily. You can watch many street preachers stand in front of these places all over the country and no laws have stopped women from going in and murdering their baby. To overturn a law would be to ban it completely, and anyone that does it, be put in prison for murder.
This is the kind of preaching we need in churches today. The days of sugar coating the truth are over. Unfortunately most churches today would have kicked Edwards out for preaching this in the name of not offending people or "tolerance".

Although this message is extremely powerful and convicting, I would argue John Edwards other sermon titled "They that are in hell are in despair" is even more sobering. Hell is such a terrifying reality and it is plain everyday many people are lifting their eyes in hell for there never to be an end to their suffering and despair. That's terrifying beyond words, knowing there will never be an end. The reality of hell demonstrates how wretched we are compared to an almighty, all powerful, thrice holy God! If we look at the world today, there are earthquakes, famines and wars going on, I think this shows us how far removed God is, but God hasn't completed withdrawn himself. The pleasures and good we experience every day is mercy, grace, patience, and love. But God warns us that His spirit will not always strive with man. I pray anybody reading this will wake up and accept Jesus Christ, the author of salvation. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved. Now is the appointed time, now is the day of salvation. You are not guaranteed tomorrow, nor even the next hour. Every second we live is an opportunity to serve God and not flesh.
There was a time when I could see people's lostness all about them. Every time I went to the store, everyone I saw who wasn't saved. There were so very many of them! This fall I'm going to give a class on the Fear of the Lord for the ladies at my church. Even bringing the concept up was a bit startling for our pastor. God is working to stir some of us up to speak out.
Wrath of the God is the truth of the Word of God. i wish to preach 'sinners in hands of angry God' to all Urdu & Punjabi speaking people groups living all over the world. Please pray for me to prepare myself for this wonderful of God.
I fear the discipline of my Father in heaven , but I’m not afraid of Him. It’s an exceedingly great thing to be a child of God- if you hear the gospel of Jesus Christ today, I urge you to accept Him as your Lord and Savior.
No they don´t!!!!!! They need to hear that they were made in the likeness and image of God. Christianity spends so much time focussed on hell and brimstone and sin and then they wonder why man is so sinful!!!!!!!

The sad thing is that such a sermon was only effective in a world where even the unbelievers had some knowledge about God and even some respect, or at least fear, of Him. If you preached this sermon in a public place today, the godless savages would just mock it.
The Lord Jesus Christ has delivered me from drug addiction, homelessness, abusive relationships, evil spirits (yes they're real) , sexual immorality, swearing, lying, stealing, laziness.. and even more. I give all the glory to Him. All praise and worship belong to God. He is real. He is bigger than any problem you face. He will meet you where you are at. Even right now.

I have not been a Christian for a very long time now, but I still find this sermon impressive.

***** Heidi, I mean no disrespect to you at all, but your comment above, "No born-again Christian would turn away from faith", can be dangerously complacent. There are many ways a sincerely born-again Christian can be tempted into returning to worldly ways. God gave us a wonderful gift called freedom of choice, and it doesn't change when we accept Christ as our savior. All people, including Christians, are subject to the same temptations. Being saved, or born again, doesn't end there. We must continue to grow in Christ everyday. Our protection against worldly temptations comes from immersing ourselves in God's Word, the Bible, by reading it, and coming to an understanding of Who God is, and what He wants us to do. We are God's "work-in-progress" until the day Jesus comes for us, and it our job to keep our focus on God until then...to learn from Him...and to gain spiritual strength from His Word. It's so simple to keep our faith, yet so hard for so many of us to do, no matter how sincere we are. The Book of Hebrews explains God's nature in a way that no other single book in the Bible does. It explains what Jesus has done for us after His Ascension, and how it applies in our lives. In reading this book, I found that even the most sincere, born-again Christians need help in persevering in their faith -- that no one is exempt from temptation. It is a difficult book to understand at first, but there are many commentaries which can give a fuller understanding of it. There is a book called "Exploring the Book of Hebrews, A Devotional Commentary", by George Knight, which will give you a much greater vision of God.
@@sherreewells no true born again Christian can lose their faith walk is not because of the effort the believer puts in, but rather that God is a faithful God and by His power will sustain us in our faith. If it as by our power or might we would fail miserably. God bless
All these fools can't handle the truth. God is loving yes. But He also gets angry. So stop complaining. If you're here, atheist or otherwise. You know God is real. For the self proclaimed atheists, you're just turning away in rebellion and fear.
Everyone here glorifying Reverend Edwards must remember that, after this sermon, he was barred from the pulpit in perpetuity, and ran out of town on a rail.
Not true, you are confusing him with someone else. Edwards was always highly respected as a theologian, and this message reflected the common sentiment at the time
I grew up next door to Northampton, Mass and can tell y’all you that the CT river valley desperately needs another visit by the Holy Spirit and men like Jonathan Edwards. But, I fear that region has already “ been given over” Thank you for posting this amazing video.!👍🙏
I see comments below about the hellfire and brimstone preaching style here, and perhaps Jonathan Edwards did learn towards that type of message. But the true message he is conveying here should not be overlooked, that you must know, in your heart, where you stand in God's kingdom; to ignore it would be eternal regret. Being baptised doesn't mean being saved; attending church doesn't mean that you're are a true christian. Serving God doesn't mean that you're living a life that is Christlike. Serving not with your heart, but to show others how "good" you are and what a "good Christian" you are, is merely serving for your own good and not for the benefits of others. God's always knows your heart, even when you don't. It is essential for everyone to examine their own hearts and motives; this is mandatory for your own salvation. The alternative brings us to the objection some people commented on to this "style" sermon -- its "Hellfire and Brimstone" style. There are many ways to define "hell" -- Hell is created by man right here on earth, and to suffer from your own sins, would truly be like fire and brimstone in your heart. It helped me to visualize the torment a sinner would feel when, on the day of final judgement, he/she realizes what he/she have lost by not examining their hearts very carefully while still alive and able to do something about it. The regret and pain they would endure at the realization of their loss of God's kingdom would indeed by like a fire consuming them. This was an awesome sermon which applies as much to these days and times as it did when it was originally. Open your hearts and minds, and maybe you will see his message.
I don't think this sermon comes across as damning at all. Who wouldn't want to be warned? If the top of the stove is still hot, wouldn't you want someone to tell you? If a snake was within striking distance, wouldn't you want to know? That is love, not wrath.
"If a snake was within striking distance, wouldn't you want to know?" Except in this analogy the snake would be God. That should tell you something about the God that Edwards preached.
We are in the dispensation {administration} of Grace....God is at Peace with us {humankind} because of what Christ Accomplished at the cross...... Besides Christ, nothing pleases God our Father more than thankful hearts...We all will eventually come in to the Peace of God through the Son of His Love, Jesus Christ our Lord...Grace is divine influence upon the heart and is given to those who deserve the opposite.. Grace and Peace to all
Not particularly religious but to see this was very interesting. Read this in high school and my teacher said it was preached just like this. Don’t know this pastor but he did a great job with delivery, costume and set. Kudos
According to 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. When All Scripture means ALL, the the Doctrine of Hell must be included as well.
Psalms Chapter 51 1(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.) Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 3For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 4Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. 5Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 6Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. 7Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. 10Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 13Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. 14Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. 15O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. 16For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. 17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. 18Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. 19Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
Many people don't like sermons like this. Of course the sinful: " Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." - I Corinthians 6:9-10 Schools, as the Pastor mentioned, try to degrade Jonathan Edwards. But, what I find most surprising are "CHRISTIANS" and "REPUBLICANS" and "CONSERVATIVES" who don't like this sermon, the theology behind it. These people seem fake to me, because in the end, I always say: they love liberty (equality, inclusion, etc.) more than they hate sin.
"There is nothing divine about morality; it is a purely human affair.” Albert Einstein. From the book ... The Final Inequality, by L. J. Ludovici. "Morals at any given moment have always been as good, or as bad, as our imaginations credit them, for the morals (from the Latin, mores: customs) means simply customs, and they keep changing all the time in all the corners of the world."
Thanks for this. I get how it may well be difficult to do such a reenactment - but why, I wonder, did you choose to alter Edwards’ text in many places? You seem to “tone it down” in lots and lots of places. Was it to make Edwards more palatable to contemporary minds? Or did you just have a very different copy of the sermon in your hands that I had (at blue letter)? Curious.
Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 1 Corinthians Chapter 15 1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
So far this century I am yet to hear preachers preach from Ezekiel 8:18, quote "18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them."
I think many people who know Edward's work disagree with Ralph. This sermon is a good representation of Edward's preaching style. He may have also delivered more uplifting stuff but he is well known for preaching Hellfire.
+Dirk Stabins, Edwards was an expository preacher, meaning that he typically taught and preached verse-by-verse. Unlike this portrayal of him in the video, he was actually soft spoken. There was much more to Edward's works than this one topic, so I disagree. I would also argue that this type of preaching was common among Puritans. Speaking on hell and judgement was not unusual or taboo. If they arrived to a place in Scripture that spoke on judgement and hellfire, they would speak on it also. It's the same for any other biblical topic.
I think of the man in hell when Lazarus was looking over the void. He said tell my family not to come here..... point is, after death it's too late to change your mind.... I wonder sometimes..... why? But I think I know why already.
Hey Larren, Christ death wasn't for them. (the lost) it was for those who would believe on him for salvation. And sir, the soul is eternal. For good or bad. And, God will wipe every tear from their eyes. and there will be no more death or sorrow..etc. God does this. in Heaven. Sinners won't be near God. They want nothing to do with him! read Revelation..look at all the punishment sent down and suffered, and yet, (read on) still they would not repent. Nope, Eternity is just that. Eternal. Just because we can't conceive of it, doesn't make it not true. God can not lie.

Sinners in the hands of an angry God in other words when God goes on a killing spree!!! The LORD God Almighty takes his 10 commitments seriously!!! As written in Revelation 21:8 But the cowards, traitors, perverts, murderers, the immoral, those who practise magic, those who worship idols, and all LIARS, the place for them is the lake burning with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.
Thank you, I have heard of this sermon for so many years, and was hoping to find a website where someone actually preached it. You did a fantastic job. It has to be very hard to be trying to preach the exact words that someone else did.
The religious word "sin" hurts many humans. If we replaced the religious word "sin," with the non-religious word "behavior," it would keep us grounded. Humans would no longer believe that a god existed that was spying and judging their every move and thought. I suggest that we should be taught as children that we are whole, just as we are, and that, concerning how we treat others, the onus is on us.
What we believe does not matter. It is what God says that matter. Our lives are nothing but vapor that appears for a little while and it is gone. We should all repent and turn to Jesus Christ for the saving of our souls.
@@eddiefrimpong5136 If what you believe does not matter, then if you don't believe in Jesus, it should not matter. I understand your confusion. I spent until 70 years of my life being confused by the double-talk of religious teachings. For instance, within theology ... if a god gave humans free will ... then he would go against his own promise if he harshly judges humans for using their free will. God his self would be a double-talker. You will spot the lies, as did I, but only if and when you are ready, and "willing."
@@junevandermark952 Love is only possible when there is free will. The Lord however shows you what is good for you. That is to put your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Punishment awaits every disobedience of man. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.
@@eddiefrimpong5136 If you claim that love is only possible when there is free will, then, if a god exists that punishes humans that it promised to give free will ... then the god would not know the meaning of the word love. Only those who believe in such a horrible god would want to be saved from its wrath. Religion is not good for you.
@@junevandermark952 greater love has no one than this, to lay down one’s life for another. God is the only who has true love. He laid down his life for you and I. Please turn to him before it’s too late.
We have committed to Hell multitudes of jinns and humans. They have minds with which they do not understand, eyes with which they do not see, and ears with which they do not hear. They are like animals; no, they are far worse-they are totally unaware. The devil will say, after the judgment had been issued, "GOD has promised you the truthful promise, and I promised you, but I broke my promise. I had no power over you; I simply invited you, and you accepted my invitation. Therefore, do not blame me, and blame only yourselves. My complaining cannot help you, nor can your complaining help me. O you who believe, do not follow the steps of Satan. Anyone who follows the steps of Satan, should know that he advocates evil and vice. If it were not for GOD's grace towards you, and His mercy, none of you would have been purified. But GOD purifies whomever He wills. Recall that Moses said to his people, "O my people, you have wronged your souls by worshiping the calf. You must repent to your Creator. You shall kill your egos. This is better for you in the sight of your Creator." 💗👁🧠👁🎩👑💄👁💎👁💗

I live In Massachusetts close to Northampton. Present day Sodom. Gods Grace is available to all who will call on him for forgiveness.
Four years ago you posted this. I know things haven't improved since then. Stay strong.
Thank you for doing this sermon and posting... you did an awesome job
44 mins? for a homework assignment? nah nah nah nah
Bruh meeee
I have to it’s the only way
Hah imagine having to listen to the whole thing
All these fools can't handle the truth. God is loving yes. But He also gets angry. So stop complaining. If you're here, atheist or otherwise. You know God is real. For the self proclaimed atheists, you're just turning away in rebellion and fear.
😂
I agree
Everyone here glorifying Reverend Edwards must remember that, after this sermon, he was barred from the pulpit in perpetuity, and ran out of town on a rail.
From what I've read, numerous people accepted Christ before the end of Edwards's message.
If that is true, than that means that he spoke truth, which man refuses to accept
Not true, you are confusing him with someone else. Edwards was always highly respected as a theologian, and this message reflected the common sentiment at the time
I grew up next door to Northampton, Mass and can tell y’all you that the CT river valley desperately needs another visit by the Holy Spirit and men like Jonathan Edwards. But, I fear that region has already “ been given over” Thank you for posting this amazing video.!👍🙏
I got to ask, do you really think this is a loving God? Treat others how you want to be treated.
I see comments below about the hellfire and brimstone preaching style here, and perhaps Jonathan Edwards did learn towards that type of message. But the true message he is conveying here should not be overlooked, that you must know, in your heart, where you stand in God's kingdom; to ignore it would be eternal regret. Being baptised doesn't mean being saved; attending church doesn't mean that you're are a true christian. Serving God doesn't mean that you're living a life that is Christlike. Serving not with your heart, but to show others how "good" you are and what a "good Christian" you are, is merely serving for your own good and not for the benefits of others. God's always knows your heart, even when you don't. It is essential for everyone to examine their own hearts and motives; this is mandatory for your own salvation. The alternative brings us to the objection some people commented on to this "style" sermon -- its "Hellfire and Brimstone" style.
There are many ways to define "hell" -- Hell is created by man right here on earth, and to suffer from your own sins, would truly be like fire and brimstone in your heart. It helped me to visualize the torment a sinner would feel when, on the day of final judgement, he/she realizes what he/she have lost by not examining their hearts very carefully while still alive and able to do something about it. The regret and pain they would endure at the realization of their loss of God's kingdom would indeed by like a fire consuming them.
This was an awesome sermon which applies as much to these days and times as it did when it was originally. Open your hearts and minds, and maybe you will see his message.
Very inspiring indeed.
How true of God's restraints were it not for Grace at Calvary where would I be?
I don't think this sermon comes across as damning at all. Who wouldn't want to be warned? If the top of the stove is still hot, wouldn't you want someone to tell you? If a snake was within striking distance, wouldn't you want to know? That is love, not wrath.
Ann Chovey agreed!
Yes oh yes 👍👍👍
Ann Chovey, amen, sister
Do you really think God is that hateful or horrible toward the result of his his own making? That doesn't even make any sense.
"If a snake was within striking distance, wouldn't you want to know?"
Except in this analogy the snake would be God. That should tell you something about the God that Edwards preached.
Hallelujah

Thank you for tsemon. It was a blessing.
Thanks for doing this reading! I've always wanted to hear this done audibly.
TheSustainingWord me too!
Oh Methodist and all people... listen and take to heart.
I love this work, but to me Edwards has many greater sermons. I got a book of them from Barnes and Noble. He was truly a great bible teacher
What was the name of the book?
Yes, what is the name of the book, please? And what are the names of your top 3 sermons of his, that you deem to be "greater"?
Very powerful.
We are in the dispensation {administration} of Grace....God is at Peace with us {humankind} because of what Christ Accomplished at the cross...... Besides Christ, nothing pleases God our Father more than thankful hearts...We all will eventually come in to the Peace of God through the Son of His Love, Jesus Christ our Lord...Grace is divine influence upon the heart and is given to those who deserve the opposite.. Grace and Peace to all
Not particularly religious but to see this was very interesting. Read this in high school and my teacher said it was preached just like this. Don’t know this pastor but he did a great job with delivery, costume and set. Kudos
This is Awesome!!! God bless you!!!!
Watching
TURN BACK TO GOD AND LIVE! ALLELUIA🙌. A-MEN' 😘
💘🙏🔑👑🔥🌹
This sermon should of been preached at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati super bowl night instead of the kicking God's word.
His grandson was the Aaron Burr Jr.
According to 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. When All Scripture means ALL, the the Doctrine of Hell must be included as well.
AMEN!!
AMEN AMEN AMEN
Ralph Green Was Wonderful Pastor Edwards Would Be Pleased
Don't want to go to hell.

Psalms Chapter 51
1(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.) Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
No head coverings for men,Jesus is Head
Read in context
That's a wig which was common for men to wear in Jonathon Edward's time.
Many people don't like sermons like this. Of course the sinful:
" Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." - I Corinthians 6:9-10
Schools, as the Pastor mentioned, try to degrade Jonathan Edwards. But, what I find most surprising are "CHRISTIANS" and "REPUBLICANS" and "CONSERVATIVES" who don't like this sermon, the theology behind it. These people seem fake to me, because in the end, I always say:
they love liberty (equality, inclusion, etc.) more than they hate sin.
"There is nothing divine about morality; it is a purely human affair.” Albert Einstein. From the book ... The Final Inequality, by L. J. Ludovici. "Morals at any given moment have always been as good, or as bad, as our imaginations credit them, for the morals (from the Latin, mores: customs) means simply customs, and they keep changing all the time in all the corners of the world."
Sermons by Jonathan Edwards the greatest sermon ever been priest on American soil
Thanks for this. I get how it may well be difficult to do such a reenactment - but why, I wonder, did you choose to alter Edwards’ text in many places? You seem to “tone it down” in lots and lots of places. Was it to make Edwards more palatable to contemporary minds? Or did you just have a very different copy of the sermon in your hands that I had (at blue letter)? Curious.
Amen

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Joel 2:28
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
1 Corinthians Chapter 15
1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
I'm Here by youtube recommendation
No, you are here by the Grace of God. May he bless you with his council
@@FiveSolas5735 yeah, you're right, may the Lord God bless you too
now, is the day, of salvation, eh....so lets take advantage of it and flee, the wrath, to come....
So far this century I am yet to hear preachers preach from Ezekiel 8:18, quote "18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them."
I think many people who know Edward's work disagree with Ralph. This sermon is a good representation of Edward's preaching style. He may have also delivered more uplifting stuff but he is well known for preaching Hellfire.
+Dirk Stabins, Edwards was an expository preacher, meaning that he typically taught and preached verse-by-verse. Unlike this portrayal of him in the video, he was actually soft spoken. There was much more to Edward's works than this one topic, so I disagree. I would also argue that this type of preaching was common among Puritans. Speaking on hell and judgement was not unusual or taboo. If they arrived to a place in Scripture that spoke on judgement and hellfire, they would speak on it also. It's the same for any other biblical topic.
I think of the man in hell when Lazarus was looking over the void. He said tell my family not to come here..... point is, after death it's too late to change your mind.... I wonder sometimes..... why? But I think I know why already.
Is nobody going to talk about this dude saying he died of... a vaccine??
Nice hat! Lolololol
Praying for the 48 dislikes. In wrath remember mercy O Lord
Hey Larren, Christ death wasn't for them. (the lost) it was for those who would believe on him for salvation. And sir, the soul is eternal. For good or bad. And, God will wipe every tear from their eyes. and there will be no more death or sorrow..etc. God does this. in Heaven. Sinners won't be near God. They want nothing to do with him! read Revelation..look at all the punishment sent down and suffered, and yet, (read on) still they would not repent. Nope, Eternity is just that. Eternal. Just because we can't conceive of it, doesn't make it not true. God can not lie.

Was Jonathan Edward a Calvinist or Arminian?
I wouldnt be able to stay in a service and listen to a man wearing a wig like that. Thats a good messgae it use to be in the history books in school.
Kind of an outdated method of herding your flock. I guess it worked back then
Sinners in the hands of an angry God in other words when God goes on a killing spree!!!
The LORD God Almighty takes his 10 commitments seriously!!!
As written in Revelation 21:8
But the cowards, traitors, perverts, murderers, the immoral, those who practise magic, those who worship idols, and all LIARS, the place for them is the lake burning with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.
Bueatiful :')
Beautiful indeed

Thank you, I have heard of this sermon for so many years, and was hoping to find a website where someone actually preached it. You did a fantastic job. It has to be very hard to be trying to preach the exact words that someone else did.
The religious word "sin" hurts many humans. If we replaced the religious word "sin," with the non-religious word "behavior," it would keep us grounded. Humans would no longer believe that a god existed that was spying and judging their every move and thought. I suggest that we should be taught as children that we are whole, just as we are, and that, concerning how we treat others, the onus is on us.
What we believe does not matter. It is what God says that matter. Our lives are nothing but vapor that appears for a little while and it is gone.
We should all repent and turn to Jesus Christ for the saving of our souls.
@@eddiefrimpong5136 If what you believe does not matter, then if you don't believe in Jesus, it should not matter.
I understand your confusion. I spent until 70 years of my life being confused by the double-talk of religious teachings.
For instance, within theology ... if a god gave humans free will ... then he would go against his own promise if he harshly judges humans for using their free will.
God his self would be a double-talker.
You will spot the lies, as did I, but only if and when you are ready, and "willing."
@@junevandermark952 Love is only possible when there is free will. The Lord however shows you what is good for you. That is to put your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Punishment awaits every disobedience of man.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.
@@eddiefrimpong5136 If you claim that love is only possible when there is free will, then, if a god exists that punishes humans that it promised to give free will ... then the god would not know the meaning of the word love.
Only those who believe in such a horrible god would want to be saved from its wrath.
Religion is not good for you.
@@junevandermark952 greater love has no one than this, to lay down one’s life for another. God is the only who has true love. He laid down his life for you and I.
Please turn to him before it’s too late.
I just want to know how he memorized all of this?
He's reading off the ambo (or whatever Protestants call it).
Jonathon Edwards owned slaves - what do we do with that?
This sermob is the most important truth, ever..btw what is wrong with dude Hair 🙄
It’s a small point but I didn’t think small pox inoculations were about until the 19th century
Vaccination wasn't until later, in the 1700's they would grind up dried scabs and rub it into a cut to "innoculate" as they would call it.
john karraker oh! I see thanks for the useful information.
We have committed to Hell multitudes of jinns and humans. They have minds with which they do not understand, eyes with which they do not see, and ears with which they do not hear. They are like animals; no, they are far worse-they are totally unaware.
The devil will say, after the judgment had been issued, "GOD has promised you the truthful promise, and I promised you, but I broke my promise. I had no power over you; I simply invited you, and you accepted my invitation. Therefore, do not blame me, and blame only yourselves. My complaining cannot help you, nor can your complaining help me.
O you who believe, do not follow the steps of Satan. Anyone who follows the steps of Satan, should know that he advocates evil and vice. If it were not for GOD's grace towards you, and His mercy, none of you would have been purified. But GOD purifies whomever He wills.
Recall that Moses said to his people, "O my people, you have wronged your souls by worshiping the calf. You must repent to your Creator. You shall kill your egos. This is better for you in the sight of your Creator." 💗👁🧠👁🎩👑💄👁💎👁💗
Why is he wearing that wig? No judgement I just don't get it. However, I'm still going to listen to this
I am guessing this was the style of dress at that time? I'm sure people a few hundred years from now will laugh at our fashions!
Imagine the smell.
Sermons like this are negative and unloving only to those who positively love their sin.
