Tennent begins this sermon on the topic of bad language by citing Psalm 39:1, "I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me" and James 1:26, " If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain." From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1744, and delivered it again in 1748, 1749, and 1759.
