1. Borghardt's Sermon Diagnostic
Number of times = 24
Verbs = makes you holy
Sets apart saints
Slain
Took on sin and died for us
Is lamb
Lives again
Dies rose and reigns
Makes us alive and dead no more
2. Edwards’ and Borghardt’s themes were polar opposites. Jonathon’s theme was to basically scare us. He explains with the harshest tone that we are all dead and would suffer under God’s wrath. He describes this for an eternity, and then for not even a paragraph he finally tells us that we are saved through Christ. Edwards only mentions Christ maybe 4 times unlike Borghardt who mentions Christ at least 24 times. Borghardt’s theme was more comforting telling us that we are all saved through Christ’s death and we are his saints and we should rejoice and be happy in Him.
I love the choice of your words like "polar oppisites." It really helps you understand how different the two sermons actually are. You did a good job explain the differences between the two themes! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeletei like how you said how many times Jesus is said in each sermon. it shows what their sermon is about and how much they mention the gospel message in their sermon
