“If I could, I’d trade it all. Trade it for a halo. And she said that she’ll pray for me. I said, ‘it’s too late for me.’” These dark lyrics in the song, “Ordinary Life” by The Weeknd contradict the general Christian concept of forgiveness. Because The Weeknd feels he has strayed so far from God he believes he can not be forgiven, even though the Christian Church teaches that you can always repent your sins to God and be forgiven. This is similar to Jonathan Edwards views on God at the time because he opposed the idea of God being a loving savior, and said he was capable of mass destruction with his ultimate power. In the short story “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” Jonathan Edwards preaches that God is a powerful and dangerous leader of his people through his use of imagery of natural elements, such as water, fire, and weather.

Apple has benefitted significantly from globalization and from technology change. For example, the company started primarily as an American company, but globalization has allowed Apple to become a multinational operation. The company only derives around one-third of sales form the Americas according to the annual report, a figure that includes Canada and all of Latin America in addition to the United States.
