Description

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

Tennent begins this sermon by citing Colossians 3:11, "Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all," and Colossians 1:19, "For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell."

From dates noted in the manuscript it appears that Tennent wrote this sermon in 1744, then delivered it again in 1747 and 1749.
