| Dates | 1819-1861 |
| Abstract | An incomplete sermon by Edward Hitchcock interpreting Paul's meaning in chapter 6 of Romans. Hitchcock emphasizes the passage that mentions freedom from the "dominion of habitual sin," claiming that an aspect of the Christian character is not sinning habitually. Therefore, if one professes to be a Christian but sins habitually, he is not truly a Christian. Hitchcock also asks his hearers to reflect upon the "fruits of sin" and think about what sin has brought them, emphasizing that all that sin brings is negative. |
