This manuscript contains Tennent's many thoughts on the spiritual life and the requirements of the ministry. He begins by citing Psalms 34:8, "O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him." He also cites Romans 8:5, "For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit." From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent worked on this manuscript from 1759 to 1761.
