I am not sure what it is a reference to.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Do you mean charged?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

Read the following quotation from "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." List three charged words. Why are they considered charged words? There are the black clouds of God's wrath [anger] now hanging directly over your heads, full of the dreadful storm, and big with thunder; and were it not for the restraining hand of God, it would immediately burst forth upon you. The sovereign pleasure of God, for the present, stays [restrains] his rough wind; otherwise it would come with fury, and your destruction would come like a whirlwind.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

When something is charged it has a strong impact on its own. The ones people know the most are expletives, but in Obama's campaign he used a simple one: hope.
