| Abstract | Sermon notes by Edward Hitchcock containing notes for two sermons. The first quotes Acts 26:28 and discusses the concept of an "almost Christian," which is one who conforms to the beliefs of Christianity in most aspects but is lacking in some aspect of conviction or faith. Hitchcock also lists motivations why such a person should convert fully. The second quotes Genesis 28:17 and focuses on the Kingdom of Heaven and why it was described as dreadful in the verse. Hitchcock has noted on the third page that he preached the first sermon at Conway in December 1822. |
