Creator	Hitchcock, Edward, 1793-1864
Title	Edward Hitchcock sermon no. 175, "Intention of the Lords Supper," 1823 July
Dates	1823-07
Abstract	Edward Hitchcock's sermon on the ordinance of Communion. Hitchcock noted on the first page the single date and place where he had delivered this sermon as well as a hymn related to the sermon; he did not select a biblical text as the basis of his remarks. He enumerated six leading intentions signified by the sacrament of the Lord's Supper: Christ's atonement for the sins of the world; "other fundamental kindred doctrines of the Gospel;" the second coming of Christ; a common and indissoluble bond among Christians; an inspiration toward brotherly love; and, a reminder of the communion of saints in heaven.
