According to finney, why was excitement necessary in church? to make people more satisfied with their lives to people live without morals to encourage people to fight against sin

Answer number 3. To help people to fight against sin.

Charles Finney's religious excitments derived from the general idea of things that excited men like politics or everyday distractions that led people´s minds off religion.

He thought there must be sufficient excitements in religion to wake up moral in the minds of people and fight back sins, degradation, and depravity that causes men to derail from God's path.

the catholic church withhold people's access to the bible during the middle ages.

people could go to church and listen to the teachings, but it was absolutely forbidden to own and/or read the books of both the old and new testaments. it was also prohibited to translate the books (which where originally in biblical hebrew) to any other language.

this was done so the church could remain in control of what their teachings were and to enhance their importance and power, while also being able to judge people's actions through information that was unavailable for the general public.
