Summary

Gilbert Tennent (1703-1764) was an Irish-American Presbyterian clergyman, and one of the leaders of the Great Awakening. "The perseverance of the saints" shares a title with an earlier sermon by Tennent, and may be a newer version of that one. Tennent begins this sermon with reference to John 11:26, John 10:27-28, and Romans 8:33 to the end of the chapter. From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1750, then delivered it again in 1756, 1759, and 1763.
