\"jonathan<\/p>\n

as you review the great awakening for the exam, don\u2019t forget to think about jonathan edwards apush topics. here are some things that you should know about this \u201cnew light\u201d<\/a> preacher for the exam: <\/p>\n

who is jonathan edwards?<\/h2>\n

jonathan edwards lived during the great awakening. he graduated from yale when he was 17 years old. then, he served as a congregationalist protestant preacher and missionary to the native americans. <\/p>\n

jonathan edwards is known as one of the most famous theologians. his most famous sermon is \u201csinners in the hands of an angry god.\u201d this sermon discussed topics of sin, hell, and eternal torment. as a result, this and other sermons he delivered helped reignite religious fervor in new england. <\/p>\n

years<\/h2>\n

birth: october 5, 1703
\ndeath: march 22, 1758 <\/p>\n

why is he important?<\/h2>\n

jonathan edwards was one of the central figures in the great awakening. also, he\u2019s one of the most famous philosophical theologians of all time.<\/p>\n

important people and events<\/h2>\n
  • george whitefield<\/strong> – george whitefield was another preacher during the great awakening. he’s considered the founder of the “new light” movement. furthermore, he spoke of love and forgiveness and focused on individual salvation and bringing greater emotion to religious devotion. in fact, it\u2019s been said that jonathan edwards was moved to tears by one of his sermons. <\/li>\n
  • \u201csinners in the hands of an angry god\u201d<\/a><\/strong> – this is the sermon delivered by jonathan edwards in 1741. he said that people would be lost without god\u2019s grace. also, he spoke about the awfulness of hell and eternal torment. <\/li>\n
  • the great awakening<\/strong> – the great awakening occurred in the 1730’s and 1740’s. it brought the colonies together and renewed the colonists\u2019 religious fervor. <\/li>\n

    \napush practice question 1<\/h2>\n

    which congregationalist minister\u2019s beliefs are exemplified through the following quote?<\/p>\n

    o sinner! consider the fearful danger you are in! it is a great furnace of wrath, a wide and bottomless pit, full of the fire of wrath that you are held over in the hand of that god whose wrath is provoked and incensed as much against you as against many of the damned in hell. . .<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    a. george whitefield
    \nb. john winthrop
    \nc. william tennant
    \nd. jonathan edwards<\/p>\n

    answer: d. the answer was probably obvious based on the topic for this post. however, this question is very similar to one that has been asked on the exam before. the quote comes from jonathan edwards\u2019 sermon, \u201csinners in the hands of an angry god\u201d. <\/p>\n

    the quote mentions hell, fire, god\u2019s wrath, and torment (i.e., the \u201cbottomless pit\u201d). because of this, you should think that it\u2019s probably a quote from jonathan edwards\u2019 memorable sermon. <\/p>\n

    apush practice question 2<\/h2>\n

    dbq: consider the causes of the great awakening in colonial america. how did the religious revival affect colonists? <\/p>\n

    answer: when discussing jonathan edwards in your answer, it would be important to discuss how colonists had lost their conviction. many people were going through the motions for religion, but they weren\u2019t passionate about their beliefs. <\/p>\n

    jonathan edwards delivered sermons that taught people about the state of hell and torment should they fail to live their religion with conviction. sermons like \u201csinners in the hands of an angry god\u201d reminded people of god\u2019s grace and the importance of religious devotion. <\/p>\n
