Jim's feedback:

"Ideally, you should state the title of the sermon you're analyzing within the text. Three of four sentences at one point start with “Edwards uses.” These sentences should show more variety. “Bible” and books of the Bible should be capitalized. In itself, the fact that Edwards quotes from the Bible is not proof of more than trivial knowledge. As a place, “Earth” should be capitalized. The author uses comma splices, i.e., the use of a comma to set apart what should be two sentences. There is also an instance of two sentences run together without punctuation. An erroneous comma breaks up the flow of a sentence (“to, instill”). Informal expressions (“a ton of”) should be avoided. A noun (“fury”) is used as an adjective. From the standpoint of logic, this is a good paper. It needs more attention to grammar."
