Tennent begins this sermon, "On fellowship with works of darkness," by citing 1 Timothy 5:22, "Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure." He also cites Ephesians 5:7-11, "Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them." From dates noted on the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1759, then delivered it again in 1763.
