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 placing one's spirit in God's hands," by citing Luke 23:46, Acts 7:59, and Psalms 31:5. From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1748, then delivered it again in 1757.
