He depicts God as frightening, and authoritative over human fate. Furthermore, Edwards believes this so strongly he wants sinners to change their horrible ways.

Through the use of hopeful repetition, Jonathon Edwards conveys to the readers optimistic thoughts the shows us how God upkeeps. . Edwards stresses the fact that God wants us to be on the right path of life “restrains” (3) from sending us into hell as in giving us a second chance. Edwards uses the word “restraint” to show how God is on our side and he expects great thing out of us, the loving side of God. Furthermore, Edwards uses the word “promise” (5) multiple times to show the readers that God is not just making a promise to let everyone into heaven.

“But all endings are also beginnings. We don’t know it yet.” This quote is said by the author in the introduction to the readers. The author, Mitch Albom, says that it may be weird to start a story with an ending. But what we don’t know is that the end of one life can mean the start of another. An example of this quote is when Eddie went for his baseball and The Blue Man made the quick decision to drive out of the way to make sure that he didn’t hurt Eddie. This caused the end to The Blue Man’s life, but it was a new beginning for Eddie because he was in a life or death situation and fate chose life for him. So it starts a new beginning that Eddie wouldn’t know about. This quotation

The Five People You Meet In Heaven, by Mitch Albom is an explanation of life, starting with death. In this story, Albom starts when life ends, and this has plenty of symbolism once analysed further. In many ways, Death can teach the greatest lesson: Life. Death teaches us our purpose on Earth, it signifies the effect that our lives had on people around us, but more importantly, Death leaves behind a hole that cannot be filled. In Five People, Albom conveys this wonderfully, combining a myriad of different lessons that showed Eddie his purpose on Earth. Many times, his life was changed by somebody else, and at the same time, he changed many lives. Each lesson that is described signifies an important part of his life, and they all come together into the vast melting pot of life, like a jigsaw puzzle to explain Eddie’s life. These lessons are effective mainly through their rhetoric, but also through the message behind them. Eddie learnt his final lessons in life’s greatest classroom: Heaven.

While in heaven, Eddie first learns how his time in the military impacted the lives of his unit and his captain. He had immensely affected whether they had lived or died during their time as prisoners of war. Due to his quick thinking, Eddie was able to construct a diversion that gave him and his men an escape route. Eddie used his juggling skills to distract the guards resulting in their flee. Without Eddie’s assistance the men would most likely not have escaped. Unfortunately, their jailbreak also led up to the captain’s death. When the men were rushing out of the burning camp, Eddie believed he saw a person in the fire. He made several attempts to save whoever was still in the flames. This gave the captain no choice but to shoot his leg and then rush him to a nearby medical

I read the book "The five people you meet in heaven". Have you ever thought of who you will see when you go to heaven, or who you may meet?

He implies that this confession of character is unintentional and could have a backlash on said person. This revelation of character to others could ruin a reputation or cause a rift between friends by simply articulating an opinion on any current event. Emerson suggests that incautiously formed opinions will bring trouble to whoever states them in public.

I liked the way the actors showed us the story. They did a great job and they showed that life was really hard back then. The part that stood out to me most was how life was back then. Marriage was chosen by parents and life was really brutal. For example you just come home and your parents tell you’re getting married to this or that person. You have no choice so you have to stick with it. Also people on horses will come by the name of Herod and you have to pay taxes. If you don’t you get killed or your child is taken. There was no talking of the genealogy of Jesus in the movie. If there was it would take a long time for them to say it.I would be scared a little bit because seeing and hearing an angel is like hearing God! But I would follow the instructions and it will be all right.
