Abstract
A sermon by Edward Hitchcock discussing the idea that the more prosperous a person is the more ungrateful they become towards God and the more corrupted they become. Hitchcock describes why this is the case and illustrates this argument with examples from historical nations (such as ancient Egypt), from the history of the church, from the history of smaller civil and religious communities, and from particular stories of individuals. He then describes how this idea is relevant to his own congregation. Deuteronomy 32:15 is quoted. Hitchcock has noted on the first page the dates and locations where he delivered this sermon between 1824 and 1854 as well as Bible chapters and hymns related to the sermon.
