1. Times Christ Mentioned: 33
2. Verbs that Christ is subject: Makes us holy, slain, is Lamb, died for us, slain and lives again, died our deaths, rose and reigns, slain, died and rose, makes us alive, put name on us, came, is there, is slain, reigns, died, lives, reigns.
3. The themes in Rev. Borghardt's sermon and Edward's sermon are opposites. Rev. Borghardt's sermon is about Christ and what he did so that we can be saved. Borghardt talks about how Christ will come and call our names. He talks about how Christ died and rose for us so we can live in his kingdom. In Edward’s sermon, he talks about God’s wrath. He does not talk about what Jesus did for us, only that we are condemned. He says we do not deserve God’s mercy because we are sinners. Edward briefly mentions Jesus at the end of his sermon.

I like how in this passage the verbs for Chirst are very active emphasizing Borghardt's theme. This helps compare what Christ has done for us and Edward's sermon on God's wrath that "briefly mentions" Christ.
