Mark Presbyterian Church Abstract A summary of the resource. Sext[um] precept[um] (The Sixth Commandment [Thou shalt not kill]) examines the intent and extent of this prohibition, first by what it doesn't include, in the cases of the just war, self-preservation, protection of property, or killing by accident, which are outside of this command (which, interestingly is translated in many instances today as "Thou shalt not murder"). Unjust killing is the point at issue. Rev. Tennent discusses suicide,, also condemned as self-murder, taking the individual from a chance to be useful to society, and from the obligations due loved ones; suicide is an affront and dishonor to God, destroying the body as the likeness of God. and sending the soul to extinction. Murder disrupts society by undermining the peace and the power of the magistrate to decide life & death, once individuals take matters into their own hands. The Reverend argues against private duels and the reputation they have for being honorable, but does admit that single combat to end a war might be allowable, as with David & Goliath. Other behaviors can tend toward self-murder: putting oneself at unnecessary physical risk, being careless of nourishment--whether over-eating or alcoholism, the danger of despair and the loss of appetite and therefore health. He mentions mental tendencies that kill off the soul: meanness and lack of compassion for others, either with refusal to help or in venting anger and reproach on others. Anger is a human behavior and must be channeled and regulated toward worthy objects, Reproach is just, also, if it wakes up and educates the one it's directed at to improve his behavior and usefulness, and to glorify his creator.

This manuscript contains two sermons by Tennent. The sermons are closely related; Tennent wrote the first sermon about the preamble to the ten commandments as laid out in Exodus, and the second sermon on the first commandment, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote these sermons in 1745, then delivered one or both again in 1748, 1756, and 1760.

Exodus Presbyterian Church Abstract A summary of the resource. De proemio Legis (On the introduction to the Law) and De primo precepto (On the First Commandment) are two short sermons outlining the beginnings and codification of how people should conduct themselves. An overview and interpretation of the Ten Commandments as given on the stone tablets to Moses, those on the "first table" or left-hand tablet relating to man's relationship with God, those on the "second table" or right-hand tablet dealing with man's relationship with neighbors, in which the positive and negative commandments contain by implication their active opposite or a reinforcing unspoken command be it against the forbidden evil, or toward the greater command to obey God if for instance one's parents command something criminal. Not to work on Sunday means actively to avoid sin and spend the day in a holy way. Not to commit adultery means the avoidance of thinking about it, as the very thought is as sinful as adultery itself. The short sermon on the First Commandment discusses both the commandment itself, and the traps of atheism, the profane, and idolatry that threaten disobedience to it.

Tennent begins this preparatory sermon concerning covenanting with God by citing Exodus 24:8, "And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord hath made with you concerning all these words." He also references Chronicles and Jeremiah. From dates noted on the manuscript, it appears that Tennent wrote this speech in 1744, and delivered it again in 1746, 1749, 1750, and 1756.

Subject The topic of the resource Second Presbyterian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.) Sermons Tennent, Gilbert, 1703-1764 Great Awakening Presbyterians Bible. Chronicles, 2nd Bible. Exodus Bible. Jeremiah Presbyterian Church Abstract A summary of the resource. Sermo preparatoria de modo pangendi cum Deo (Sermon of preparation on how to re-establish and make permanent the covenant with God) originally preached in 1746, bears the latest preaching date of Jan. 1764, just after the close of the French and Indian War, years of turbulence with frontier warfare" Native peoples fighting for their homelands and the rivalry of France andBritain for control of North America. The text is taken from Jeremiah, when Assyria has defeated Babylon and released the Israelites from captivity, and they weep, feel remorse, assemble together, and turn toward home after years of exile, eager to make an everlasting covenant with God. The Latin word "pango" imagines the covenant permanently recorded; one thinks of it publically displayed: physically carved in stone or forged in bronze. The sermon celebrates the seeking of the compact with God rather than with man. In remembrance of better days before the captivity, and of the exile and troubles they met while not at home, the ancient Israelites felt the need of setting things right all the more. Rev. Tennent matches the grief and anxieties of the long-ago with his own times and in this lengthy sermon urges the utmost penitence and repledging to peace, to God and to the covenant of grace.
