Jonathan Edwards’s "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God"

Question 9 • AL-English Language Arts 11 Critical Standards

Which statement best describes Edwards’s views in "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God"?

Answer
A
People who accepted Puritanism would be spared.
B
People who were "born again" in Christ would be spared.
C
People who attended church regularly would be spared.
D
People who were part of Edwards's congregation would be spared.

Explanation

Edwards argues that people are saved from damnation through God’s grace, not simply because they belong to a church or attend services. In his sermon, those who are truly converted—“born again” in Christ—are the ones who may be spared. Therefore, the best choice is “People who were ‘born again’ in Christ would be spared.”
