He sees Whitefield indifferently but explains a lot about his sermons.

In the document it says "he had a loud and and clear voice." ]]> 2016-09-15 16:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/shakeba_shields/painefranklin4/wish/124125884 https://padlet.com/shakeba_shields/painefranklin4/wish/124126101 Paine believed that reading books and thinking is what makes people stray away from God and God made it so that we could all live happily together and Edwards believes that if you don't believe in God or convert, to hell you go. Evidence-  "But when the divine gift of reason begins to expand itself in the mind and calls man to reflection, he then reads and contemplates God and his work, and not in the books pretending to be revelation. the creation of the Bible of the true believer in God."
"He that believeth not it condemned already."]]> 2016-09-15 16:35:33 UTC https://padlet.com/shakeba_shields/painefranklin4/wish/124126101 https://padlet.com/shakeba_shields/painefranklin4/wish/124126108 Thomas Paine- He and Edwards both had the same views that you can't go to heaven according to your own will or good behavior. You have to believe in God and that he is capable in bringing you to heaven and guiding you through life. Which also goes along with what Edwards said.

Paine's views of God compared to those presented by Edwards is that "what can be greater miracle than the creation itself" and "notwithstanding all God's wonderful works towards them".

God made us to live happily with each other, and not worry about sin as Edwards says.

But Paine believed that God was real being that he was a deist, and believed that God was a caring and good God. "When we see His care and goodness extended over all His creatures..."

Pain's view of God is similar to Edward's because, in their sermons they both depicted God as an angry and vengeful God. Furthermore, they were focused on highlighting the fact that sinners are in great danger under God's wrath and we only live  by the means of his grace

"The bow of God's wrath is bent, and the arrow made ready on the string, and justice bends the arrow at your heart, and strains the bow, and it is nothing but the mere pleasure of God...

Paine's views on God compare to those presented by Edwards because they both say they believe in God. They also believe that he created the world.
