God in the Hands of Frightened Sinners

Admittedly, the title that I have appended to this text comes from a sermon that Jonathan Edwards preached on July 8, 1741. While, his sermon was titled, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, clearly our text is about God in the Hands of Frightened Sinners.

Notice the first inclination of a people terrorized by God — they resort to coping through superstition.
