Bib. Ref.: 1 Tim: 1: 15. This is a faithful Saying, & worthy of all Acceptation, that

Commentary: The sermon—peprhaps one sermon rather than the “2” noted in the
title—is a combination of fully developed passages and outlines. It is imperfect with
a loss of text of about one line at the bottom of pages 1, 2, 3, and 8. A page(s) may
be missing at the end, but it seems more likely that just the last few words of page
eight are lost, rather than the entire text of another sermon.
Keywords: Christ, birth of; salvation through Christ;
