Answer:

D) All of the choices are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Edwards's goal in presenting the now-famous sermon was to instill a fearful respect for God's holiness in his listeners. He was certain that an increasing number of Americans were letting their morals go.

Listen to Sam Storms' lecture titled "Joy's Eternal Increase: Edwards on the Beauty of Heaven" for a good introduction to Edwards' views on the afterlife. However, before proceeding, it may be helpful to read Edwards's sermon, "Heaven, A World of Love."
