Hell's Torments was a popular and powerful subject for sermons in the 18th century and usually drew large crowds. Many preachers aside from Wesley delivered their own versions of this subject, including George Whitefield (1714-1770) and Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758). In an age when literacy was low and the fear of damnation high, the frightening idea of eternal hell spurred people on to convert like no other.
