Okay so Edward's preached of an angry and vengeful god. While Whitefield was a Calvinist.

Calvinism is predestination, meaning if you were born destined to go to hell, you had no way to change that because it was already determined.

so out of thies what B.? Whitefield and Edwards both reduced their audiences to tears with their booming, theatrical sermons. Whitefield and Edwards both attempted to instill fear in their parishioners using images of hell fires. Whitefield had a powerful, passionate style, while Edwards spoke to his parishioners calmly and quietly. Whitefield stressed salvation through good works while Edwards stressed salvation through God’s grace. Whitefield appealed to his parishioners’ emotions while Edwards appealed to his parishioners’ reason.
