In 1678, in a Discourse of See also:Idolatry, he had endeavoured to fasten the practices of heathenish idolatry on the Church of Rome, and in a See also:sermon which he published in 1681 on Discretion in Giving See also:Alms was attacked by See also:Andrew Pulton, See also:head of the See also:Jesuits in the See also:Savoy.

William III., Tenison was in 1689 named a member of the ecclesiastical See also:commission appointed to prepare matters towards a reconciliation of the Dissenters, the revision of the See also:liturgy being specially entrusted to him. A sermon which he preached on the commission was published the same See also:year. He preached a funeral sermon on Nell See also:Gwyn (d. 1687) in which he represented her as truly penitent—a charitable See also:judgment which did not meet with universal approval. The See also:general liberality of Tenison's religious views commended him to the royal favour, and, after being made See also:bishop of See also:Lincoln in 169r, he was promoted to the primacy in See also:December 1694. He attended See also:Queen See also:Mary during her last illness and preached her funeral sermon in See also:Westminster See also:Abbey.

Along with Burnet he attended the king on his See also:death-See also:bed. He crowned Queen See also:Anne, but during her reign was not in much favour at See also:court. He was a See also:commissioner for the See also:Union with See also:Scotland in 1706. A strong supporter of the Hanoverian See also:succession, he was one of the three See also:officers of See also:state to whom on the death of Anne was entrusted the See also:duty of appointing a See also:regent till the arrival of See also:George I., whom he crowned on the 31st of See also:October 1714.
