| Dates | 1821-11 |
| Abstract | A sermon by Edward Hitchcock about the immoral nature of men. Hitchcock focuses especially on the section of Ecclesiastes 9:3 that reads "madness is in their heart while they live," saying that this madness is essentially rejecting being saved by Jesus Christ. He tells two parables, comparing the madness of the men in the parables to the "madness" that is present in the hearts of all men without the intervention of the Holy Spirit. Hitchcock has noted on the first page the dates and locations where he delivered this sermon as well as Bible chapters and hymns related to the sermon. |
