THE CHRISTIAN.
FROM THE cRARIEsron COURIER.
MELVILLE.


The more we reflect on the peculiar ex-
cellencies ofthe Christian Religion. the more
we must adore the unbounded goodness Of
HIM, who designed it for the salvation of
man. What the grand design of the gospel
is, we may learn from the declaration of
Heaven itself to the great apostle Of the Cen
tiles; TO of1en our eyes, and to turn them
from darkness TO light, and from The ho7ocr
ofSafan INTO COP, that sue may recefDe for
SfveneSS IF sins, and an Inheritance among
them (Which are sanctjfed BY. faith in JESUS
CHRIST.
As the reward which the gospel promises
to believers, is not to be obtained in this
world, but in that which is to come, it neces-
sarlly makes US more solcitous about our
eternal welfare, than for our temporal en-
Joyment. Even what the world usually calls
virtue will yield to that real and unaffected
piety, which sanetifes MS Mrouehout in soul
and badly; which cleanses all our thoughts
and affections, & which evinces itself through
out the whole of our lives, by an entire sub
mission to the viii of COP, and obedience TO
his commands.
AS the Christians reward is celestial. all
the precepts, doctrines, promises and threat
enings OF the gospel are for the promotion Of
picty, the means by which it is to be obtair-
ed. They enlighten the mind, warm the
heart, and purify the affections in the gos-
pei Con discovers his goodne SIS, that we may
initiate him and his works, that we nay glo-
riiy him. The gospel implores us to en-
brace his crucifedSoN, by lively faith, and
to seek for holiness in Him; to live godly,
righteously and soberiy in the present world,
that we may be made partakers Of the iors
which are 20 come.
When our blessed Lord sojourned upon
earth, clothed with the flesh and the suffer
ings OF man, the object Of all his discourse to
the people was, to impress upon their minds,
the laws necessary for the regulation Of their
lives, rather than to expound to them incorn-
Prehensible mysteries. His religion reforms
the understanding dissipates error and vice,
and hatred I; and sheds abroad light and love.
purity and peace. It forms on earth re-
presentation Of that pure and holy society
that is perfected in Heaven, and by making
us better men, it makes us approach nearer
to the angels 10 holiness,
