“The Necessity of keeping the Soul”, like many other period sermons was published and made available to those who did not originally hear this sermon preached; even us today. It was preached on December 23rd, 1744 in Philadelphia where it was printed by William Bradford at the Sign of the Bible on Second-Street. It is intended both to exhort Christians and warn non-Christians. The original 24 page imprint measures 4 1/2” x 6 1/2”. It follows all the printing conventions of the day: Caslon-style type, excessive capitalization of nouns, using italics to quote Bible verses, and using “catchwords” (which is a preview the word or syllable at the bottom on a page that will be the first word/syllable on the following page).
