Summary

Gilbert Tennent (1703-1764) was an Irish-American Presbyterian clergyman, and one of the leaders of the Great Awakening. This manuscript contains three sermons by Tennent. The first sermon, "On Christ as foundation," begins by citing Isaiah 28:16. The second sermon, "On repentance," begins by citing Ezekiel 18:30, Acts 17:30-31, and Revelation 2:4-5. Finally, the third sermon begins by citing Acts 17:31 and Revelation 1:7. From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote these sermons in 1745, and redelivered one or more of them in 1747, 1752, and 1755.
