Description

Gilbert Tennent (1703-1764) was an Irish-American Presbyterian clergyman, and one of the leaders of the Great Awakening.

Tennent begins this sermon on proclaiming Christ by citing Romans 13, which touches on Christians' relationships to government, the obligation to love one's neighbors, and the urgency of walking with God.

From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1744 and delivered it again in 1748.
