| Abstract | Sermon notes by Edward Hitchcock for a sermon delivered at Amherst College in April 1839 and again in June 1842, discussing revivals of religion. Hitchcock outlines a history of revivals of spirit, the effects of these revivals on Christians and the unconverted, and a discussion of the duration of revivals. He remarks that a revival or religious spirit is often accompanied by anxiety for the impenitent and that one must check their good feelings about a revival when remembering how many remain unaffected. Joel 2:28 is quoted. |
