| Abstract | A sermon by Edward Hitchcock discussing the concept of God hardening the hearts of sinners.

He discusses how God hardens men through religious education, literary education, prosperity, faithful and unfaithful preaching, and other methods. Romans 9:18 is quoted. Hitchcock has noted the dates and locations where he delivered this sermon as well as Bible chapters and hymns related to the sermon on the first page. |
