Impending Judgments Averted Only by Reformation - 1727

"an earthquake struck on October 29, 1727. In response, the government called for a province-wide day of humiliation and fasting to take place on December 21. Impending Judgments Averted Only by Reformation is the sermon that Edwards preached for that occasion, when, like hundreds of preachers in New England, he sought to draw a religious meaning out of a natural phenomenon." From the editor's note.
