“[Duty in the Receiving of the Lord’s Supper.]” [1716] 6 1/2pp. [Acc. No. 1008]
Repository: Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston, MA
Bib. Ref.: I Cor. 10. 16.
Commentary: This is the tenth of eleven sermons (see accession numbers 999-1009)
bound together in a small volume (see accession number 998). Parts of the text
appear to have been originally recorded as outlines, which were subsequently filled
in using a smaller script. Notes on the sermon read “5 (6) 1716 [June 5, 1716] also
preached at Chath[am, Mass] Oct. 19. 1729.” The focus of the sermon is upon an
enlarged application, again categorized as “Information” and “Exhortation” of the
issue of “Duty” in the receiving of the Lord’s Supper.

“[Sermon Notes on the Lord’s Supper.]” [1715-1716] [Acc. No. 998]
Repository: Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston, MA
Commentary: This is a small bound volume described as sermon “notes” in the
Massachusetts Historical Society card catalog for the period of 1715-1716 when
Lord was minister in Dorchester, S. C. They are, however, far more than “notes,”
and many fall only somewhat short of being complete sermons or lectures. The
volume is also described as “Wednesday lectures on the sacrament of the Lord’s
Supper....” This volume (accession number 998) contains accession numbers 999
through 1009.
