II Thess. Iii. 6. To recognize no man
as Christian whose habitual, determined.
and persevering attachment to any known
sin shows that the love of Christ is no; in
him al all.
OBJEerIoN XXI. But the divine d.
rection was that the tares and the wheat
should both gfow together, unit! the har.
vest" Matt xiii. 20l
. ANSWER. This direction was given
in respect to the sco,ld. no. the Church.
+" The field is the world" saith the Savior,
In his own exposition of the parable
Matt xiii. 80. But the objection says the
field is the church, and therefore il over
looks and annihilates the distinction be-
tween the church and the world. If it is
good objection against church discipline
In this case, it is equally good against all
church discipline, in all cases whatever.
OTHER OBJECTIONS may perhaps be
urged. But these are sufficient speci.
men. A few general observations may
be made, in respect to them all. (1) They
are, in effect, objections against gospel
order and church discipline, (2) They
are grounded on current maxims and ex-
listing usages. rather than on the Bible
| aud common sense. (31 1t is conceded
point that the general state of religion in
the churches is low, and particularly 10
respect to church discipline. {4) the
standard of the objections, is therefore, the
standard of a lax discipline and lapsed
church.
In CONCLUSION, for the present, let me
briefly Say few words TO Christian sboIi-
tionists connected with churches, or min
listers, or ecclesiastical bodies, that are I'm
sound in the faith on the question Of hu-
man rights. ..-...-
Ponder we'll what you propose to do.
and count the cost, before you begin to act.
Do nothing for which you cannot give a
good and >scri plural reason. Beware OF
temptations to Impotence and spiritual
pride. Do not put the hand to the plow
and look back. Begin nothing that you
are not willing to carry out, consistent y,
at all hazards. Be much engaged in
prayer, and consult God and the Bible. at
every step. Do not break up present ee-
Iclesiastieal connections 10 run into the
same ones again or into others as bad.
Nothing has been more common than to
to divide churches in pet, either with oil
without good reasons, and then, when the
excitement is over, to shake hands again
without repentance or confession on eithel
side, Do nothing of that kind. When
you quit a church, let it be a retreat out o
Babylon, and remember LIut's wife. Ba
do not quit till you have faithfully done
your duty to your brethren, ana withou
: needless occasions Of offence. Let no
your secession be retreat from dreaded
: duty and do not remain when conscienc,
tells you that your Savior beckons yo,
:, away. A great work, the reformation 0
S the church, and the redemption of tn
world is before yon. Nav God give yo'
i grace. strength, and wisdom TO do you
d duty, and ''stand in your lot at the end o
e the days." --> ....-...
