Review - Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God

Sermon preached in Enfield, Connecticut.

Men deserve hell, have been sentenced to hell and can do nothing to avoid hell — except turn to Christ. Only God’s mercy has kept them from hell so far. A great read-aloud hellfire and brimstone sermon.

I was home alone when I read this and had a great time standing up and reading out loud.
