How would you like to hear "The most powerful sermon ever preached on American soil"?
Ah, C'mon. Maybe?
"What would that 'most powerful sermon' be?" you ask.
Ah, you remember. It's called "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by none other than the loving, kind, angry, hateful, spiteful, somewhat perverted, weirdo, wacko, nutcase, religious freak, the wingnut of the 18th Century, Jonathan Edwards!
All you have to do is click here and you can download this wonderful sermon, narrated by Max McLean.
It was first preached on July 8, 1741 in Enfield, Connecticut.
If you decide to listen, and you are a rotten, no-good, politician, or someone like that, or if you just know for damn sure that you are a sinner, you'll want to be careful and should probably listen to it sitting down, because "Many who heard it [on July 8, 1741] trembled and cried out for mercy. Others fainted."
Wouldn't do you a lot of good to faint, hit your head and end up in the hands of an angry God before you'd even had a chance to repent.
