TO 171 E EDITOR OF THE STAR. SON THE PROPHEMS. No. Xi. THE TRFRb TRWPET. "nie third angel rounded and there fell agreal itarfrom heaven, burning as it were a Fano, and it fell upon the -third part of the rivers, and upon thefountains bf loaten ; and the name of the star is called Wormwood : and the third part of the waters lecante wormwood, and many men died of the waters because they were made Litter." (Rev.. ' 10, 11.) In treating of this trumpet, though I shall be as brief as I can, consistently with perspicuity, I shall be under the necessity of taking up more of the Rea der's time than I could wish, but it is humbly hoped that the importance of the subject will compensate for the trouble of the perusal. There is not, perhaps, lathe whole book of the Revelation, a single pariage that has been more gene: ally misunderstood and mis applied, than this third Trumpet ; and yet, trivial as it may apps: to some persons, there is not, in the whole book, a single passage, the right understanding cf Which is more necessary to the elucidation of the other parts of the prophecy. As the exposition will necessarily 'occupy this and several of the succeeding Numbers, I shall divide what I have to offer into a few Sections. P.lltr T. § 1. Of the Figures employed, and the general import of Me expressions in this Trumpet. They relate to the Church —meaning of the word Church. Stars, as weliave seen, signify 'rulers in the world ; and, in the first chapter of this book, we are told that they signify the same in the Church : " The seven Stars are the Angels of th: seven Churches, and the seven Candlesticks are the seven Churches." Waters, we hare also seen, represent the nations of the world. The same figure is likewise employed to represent the Church, but with this difference . : the world, which is the larger mass, is symbolised by waters and seas, but the Chtirch by rivers and foun- twins, and for an obruus reason—in the figurative languages of the East, the streams of rivers and fountains are living water," in opposition to that which is stagnant or dead ; and in the Scriptures, Christians [not mere pretenders to the n'tme] are represented as quickened to nownest of fife, in cor. tradistinction to the men of the world, who are cor- sidered as being dead in trespasses and sins. Agreeably to the figure here used, the Prophet EZEKIEL (xlviii.) predicting the increase of the Church, compares it to waters issuing out of the sanctuary [running water]—a river that could not be passed over, possessing such a vivi, lying influence as to give life wherever it flows—filled with a great multitude of fishes —having all trees fit for food growing on its banks, whose leaf should not fade, nor their _fruit waste away ; bringing forth fruit every month for meat, and leaves for medicine. Fut this river came not at once to this magnitude : at first the' ; waters were only to the ankles, then to the knees, after that deep enough to reach the loins , , am', lastly, waters tb swim in, A RIVER that could not be passed aver. And we learn from the 22d chapter of the .Revelation, that this river of living water will not be se n in it p en' tude, till after the seven vi.:ls of the wr.:th of Gob have been poured out on those who have opposed the so vereignty of 1115 AsOiNTEE. As the Vegetable kingdom is likewise employed as a figure to represent the church, [see the First Trum pet] those who turn away from the service of the truel GOD are represented as roots which bear g‘ gall and wormwood," in place of good fruit (Deut. xxix. 18 )1 Christian churches were warned . by the Apostles to look diligently lest this root of bitterness should spring vp to trouble them, and thereby many Le doled, (Heb. xii. 15.) ; I : but by the sounding of this trumpet we are informed that, in spite of their warning, this wormwood was admitted into the waters, and poisoned them to such,: a degree that many men died of them because of their bit terms:. The death here spoken of is the same that was indicated by the iidcr on the pale horse—spiritual ! death ! death followed by hell; but there the'victims are faniJed, and here they :V • po:soned :—this leads to a farther enquiry, respecting the meaning of River and Fountains, as distinguished from collections of was ter: and resu. The latter, as we have seen, represent kingdoms or empires, composed of varicus nations, united under one political head. But the streams of rivers, or of fountains, arc indivi,lually distinct, and, in the very nature of things, independent of each other; and, if we attend to the writings of the Apostles, we shall find that such, in fact, was the case with regard to the churches which were planted, and put is order under their own eyes. The saints in every individual town ' or city, formed the Church at that particular place, as the Ctluncii at Jerusalem—at Antioch—at Ce:arca— at C.lichrea--at Corinth;; nor are different assem blies in any country or province ever mentioned as united under one head or jurisdiction, or as constitut ing one Church, except where CHRIST himself is spo. I 12n of as the head : on the contrary, like the streams and rivers of any country, they are always mentioned in the plural number ; for instance, the CHURCHES of Naccdonia—of Judea—of Galatiat —and, in this book of the Revelation, " the seven Churches in Asia"—not the Church of Asia, of Judea, Sze. This is a circum stance which deserves more attention than a super& • Acts viii. iv?. 1-1 Cor. i.e. t Acts it. 1-2 Cor. viii I. 22.-1 VIM 14-1 Cor. xvi. 1. I &a reader may at first vie* imagine ; firs kingdlar as it may appear to nuny, the changing the .original signification of the leord, which, it onr English ver sion of the New Testament, is translated " Church," was one of the principal means by which the fountains l and rivers were poisoned—or, to drop the figurative expression, it was this that destroyed the purity of the primitive Churches in their order, doctrine, and discipline,and at length absorbed them so completely in the communities of the Nations, that they became mit with them, and ceased to be the 'Churches of Js:- sus CHRIST. .. It is as common now, as it ever was in any age, to say : " if we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets," (Mat. xxiii. 30) ; and so of any crime with which men stand charged in the Scriptures. Does the poisoning here spoken of still exist? Can any thing like it be found in even our own country ? A brief examination of some particulars connected with this question, appears to me the shortest and simplest way of making the origin of the evil pointed out by this trumpet perfectly obvious. The word izar.r,Tia signifies assembly or congregation, and for. rendering it church no honest reason can be assigned. It is alleged indeed that though the word church is not English, yet having, by long usage, be come familiar to our language and its meaning well known, the translators of our English version acted very properly in retaining it. But they must have had other reasons for their conduct; for throughout ' the whole of the Old Testament they have not once . employed the word church, though trip which the LXX renuer ixxxi,Tia, occurs very frequently in the original. The fact is simply this: among the rules prescribed by King JAMES to the translators of the version now in common use, were the following : " 3d. " The old Ecclesiastical words to be kept, as the word " church not to be translated congregation. 4th. When " any word 'bath divers significations, that to be kept " which bath been most commonly used by the most " eminent Fathers, being agreeable to the propriety " of the place and the analogic of Faith 4 ." Can the siource and the object of such directions be mistaken ? It is plain they were perfectly understood by three to whom they were addressed ; for they followed not their letter but their spirit, and hence have never hesi tated to use the word "congregation " throughout the whole of the Old Testament : nor is this all; even in the New they have in one place, most officiously, deviated from the rule prescribed to them. In the Acts of the Apostles (ch. xix), where the tumult excited by DE METRIUS and his fellow-craftsmen is related, the his torian informs us that, when they had dragged Gams and ARISTARCHUS into the theatre, " some cried one thing, some another: for the ixxaraia was confused, and the • greater part knew not wherefore they were come together ;" that when the town clerk had appeased the people he said, " If DEMETRIUS and the craftsmen with him have a complaint against any man the law is open but if ye enquire concerning other mat ters it shall be determined in a lawful ecclesia ;" and that " when he had thus spoken he dismissed the church." Now, why in this passage, have they no less than three times translated izaar,cia by the word assembly, while in every other place its which it occurs in the New Testament they have rendered it church —ln their translation of this narrative another cir cumstance presents itself, which, taken along with what has just been pointed out, renders their conduct difficult to be accounted for on any other principle, than that they were influenced by the same spirit which actuated the craftsmen to cry up Diana of the Ephcsians. They make the Town Clerk to say t " Ye have brought hither these men which are neither rob ler: of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your Goddess." From such a version, one would certainly expect to find -in the original either iaaxr,c-ia. or some of its de rivatives or compounds, but no such word presents itself. Can we doubt the motive then that induced them to change tempi'-rabbet into church robber ? It is impossible to find language to express in terms of sufficient reprobation the detestable nature of the means that have been employed to involve and retain the world in darkness. What has just been stated is only a small sample of the policy by which the ling of impudent countenance, and versed in dark sayings, has caused his craft to prosper (Dan. viii. 23, 25); for these men , were but novices at the trade, compared with the great shining star that took the lead in this impious traffic, but we are ever so ready - to shift all reproof from ourselves, that I thought it ‘ might be useful to give here an in stance of the degree of proficiency to which: some among us have attained in extracting the essence of wormwood; fur in proportion as men are led to see the artifices that have been employed to deceive them, will they beanxious to discover the nature and origin of the means that have been employed to obscure the truth. On the first propagation of Christianity in the world, those who embraced the truth in any place, were joined together in fellowship to observe the or-1 dinances of Cinusr. The first congregations were formed by the Apostles themselves in Judea I and others were soon after established among the heathen converts. These were not left to frame an order of government and discipline according to their own notions : every thing among them, on the contrary, was established according to the model of the Chris tian assemblies which in Judea were in Coma Jesus; • Fuller's Church. History, IS•04 L p. 46. an whit& had. received their order from the Atos tles the? ?selves. This was the evidence trivets by them that they had received the word preached by the Apes , ndtisthe word of men, but (as it is in truth) the word ties {1 Them ii. 13, 14) —nor can any other dente be given by us of the sincerity of our 'profession of Christianity ; for he that heareth the •Apostleshear eth Omar ; and hethat despised astir astthorityllespisith 'that of Cnnur (Luke x. 16), who sent them to disciple all nation:, teaching them to observe ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER I HE HAD' OMMANDED (Mat. xxviii. 20.) The doctrines, order, and discipline tobe maintain ed in Christiin assemblies, are detailed in the writings of the Apostles and Evangelists. The Gospels were written that men might believe that .Pest's is the llinssiam, the Son of GOD, and that believing they might have life through ms name (John xx. 31) : the Acts of the Apos tle: to make known to us those infallible proofs by 'which he was shewn alive after his paSsion t the man ner of his ascension (ch. i) ; the fulfilment of his pro mise in sending the HOLY SpIRIT (ch. ii) ; the way in which the Gospel was preached, first to 'the Jews (ch. ii—viii), then to the Samaritans (viii), and lastly to the Gentiles (viii. and x. xiii, &c.) ; and to inform us how the first churches were established and orga nized by the Apostles: and the Epistle: were written for the express purpose of cerrecting practices and doctrines contrary to those enjoined by the Apo.stles, and to instruct the Christian congregations, and con sequently all their members, in every thing that re garded their faith and practice, as bodies and as indi viduals, that after Me decease of the Apartles they might t be able to have these thing: always in remembrance {2 Pet. i. 15.) being thereby perfecfly and thoroughly furnished; unto every good work (2 Tim. iii. 17.) This care, on the part of those who first preached the Gospel, was' necessary ; for they well knew, that FALSE TEACHERS were to rise up after them, who would bring in damnable heresies, and convert religion into a trade (2 Peter i;. ; that gri.vosts wolves were to enter among the bishops who would not spare the flock, but speak things ;contrary to 'what the Apostles had enjoined, (Acts xx. 29.) ; and that a time would come when those professing Christianity would not endure sound, doctrine; but, after their own desire:, have a crowd of teachers to tickle their ear:, being turned from the truth :Iwo fables (2 Tim. iv. 3.) —This corruption, the manner in which it reached its height, and the consequences I that followed, are the sub;ects of the Third Trumpet. To understand it, we must examine a little, what was the order and discipline established by the foun der of our religion, for the government of the assem- ' blies Collected in his name, and for preserving their purity. For this end it will be necessary that we as certain, of whom these assemblies were composed, and hew the members were admitted into fellowship : what office-bearers were instituted among them by the Apostles, and their duties : the manner in which their public meetings were conducted :- their discipline ; and the end intended to be gained.—Of these in my next. 1„411 7 IN7:ELLIGENCE: CIRCUPI' . 13IBLICUSb Yesterday, previous to the Judges taking their seats in their respective Courts, they met in the Chamber of the Loi u CillEF JUSTICE, and chose their Circuits as follow : Tan: Home Ctlef Justice Ellenborough, and Chief Baron Macdonald.

COURT OF CHANCERY, JUNE 22. IN THE MATTER HE LUDLAM. At the sitting of the Court, yesterday morning, Mr. PLoworri addressed the Chancellor, in the absence-of Mr. Richards, who' had spoken shortly to his Lordship, on Saturday and on Monday, upon the same matter. He represented to the Court, that his duty, as draftsman in this matter, threw upon him the ibuction of preparing and settling the petition, Which had been reconunent tied or directed by his Lordship to be presented for tiaversing the inquisition of lunacy found against this Gentleman, and not only his duty but his disposition led him to act with the most scrupu. ions attention td his Lordship's very pointed recommendation to Mr. Richards and himself, to " ascertain" all the facts necessary to be brought before the Court. There was a great number of cane copies of ordt.ts of Court and affidavits, (the procuring of k- which' cost Mr& Ludlam upwards of 171) which it was under i stand wear at Brook-house, Hackney, the Olace of his present cots. finement, and his Lordship Would be 'doable of the necessity of seeing these, in order to put the Court in possession of the whole of hit case ; and without them or fresh copies, the procuring of which Would be productive of menet and delay, it would he im possible for him to perform his duty either to his Lordship or his client. The CIIANCILLOIL obselyed, that It was itirossible to be con stonily travelling out of the regular course the Court, which had already been so much .broken in open . by this matter. Mr. PLOWDIN observed, that he had very recently come Wed the cause, and having heard his Lordship Complain so heavily of former irregularities, he teas the mote anzioas tosivid any future grounds for the like complaints. The CNA/MELLOR then asked, if any application bad been made to she Committee for those papas t Fos his LW** i sfnukt sot anticipl`:e the refhsil of any papers or othc;:..i which were propel to be given or pr43ueed for the Iscuen: or tie ?O:satic. Mr. PLOWDEN answered, that he was not ptepUed to twit the actual refusal, though he Presunv_d that the applic.tian, with out Ml Lordship's order, would be ineffectt6l. He was f it ", ho t ever, to say, that he had yesterday advised the Solititor, py becht referred to him bb Mr. Richard!, on the I.: 3;oted I plication.to the Court, to apply to the Committee for theszi , irc,,, and he conceived it not unlikely, that the absence of the Anon...* 'front Court, at that time, was to be accounted for from his beiti f actually there on that very pursuit ; if, however, It shobld hipper that before the rising of the Court, the application sltuultA have been made and refused, M r . Plowden hoped his I.ordShip woe* olio* hirn to rene.v his alsplicatitin. Mr. Plowden then &d . that notwithstanding his Lordship had, on Saturdat - last, titres lectso ntarked a repi obatioh of the misrepresentations o this 'flitter in the public prints, he had been surprised at reading, yesterd:a.,: several of them, an article concerning Mr. I.udlani, to tte effect, and some parts of which he knew to be false *. H e served, that from the nature of the article, it was sal-cVident it had been Kanto the papers by digit who had the custode ; and bad access to, Mr. Ludlam ; and it was equally evident,: it WAS published with a view to create dr further a bias akainst , I unfortunate Gentleman, either to prevent or to give a ttr:u to t traverse. ; The CHAncat.toa remarked, that he had no means of Preen• ting this mischief of misrepresentation in the public papers ;--• that both he and the Learned Counsel had reaiamis tt, comp'. it. But his Lordship feared that a great part of the evil Within the profession. Mr. PLow DE then read the instruction which letd been ded to him by the Attorney, and which was an applicaticit: Lordship, for an order for Mr. Ludlam's Surgeon's and, his Solidi ! for to be admitted to see him, Without the intervention of ant person, and that aB the papers should be delivered to the Solisitcfr. However, as his Lordship bad so explicitly expressed his cont . - ! dente, that the papers would not be refused When applied far, iso had no doubt but that What had that day passed in Court; wtut4 ' have the effect of an order. He should rest sa.isfied, bee leave toreturn his thanks for his Lordthip's feelings on the wet , slim, both on behalf of his client and himself. I The CHANCELLOR. thanked Mr. Plowden for pbtting the Mks ter so candidly ; and said he did him but justice in trienzloaing . hh feelings on this occasion, for he had very strong feeling: ind:r4 and so strong, that he rather fat as if they had carried him b t t yond what was strictly regular. • • 11 • The followinz L the paragraph alluded to s Mr. Luot.s st.—We sinned a short time since, Gt;tr. iceman had made his escape from Li ookhouse, Clayton, wheriS 1 , he was under the care of Mr. Holmes, the proprietor. lkir.
