LIST, from the followjng terti-
Bn exhort one another daily viIe it is called TODAY
lest any You be hardened through The deeei'nlness OF
sin Heb Ill H.
Exhort, is connected with every thing winch
one does among his fellow men-that is, by his
words, example, and various ways, he exhorts,
either one way or the other, good or bad. And to
exhort we must, for 1t is enicined upon us fiom
God. It's daily duty; and the person that neg
lccts this dnty, SUCH is one who murders as
certainly as the assassin who kills fellow being,
though perhaps not in SO great degree. No
man can be Christian, who lives in the neglect
Of known duty. Husband and wife are united as
one, that they may watch over each other, Also,
parent and child, brother and sister, sustain the
same relationship one toward another; that is they
are bound to watch overeach other. The church
must watch that it might exhort one another da
~ The state ofmany preparatory 10 this issPent
in prayer.
First If you would glorify. God, you must be
faithful in exhorting, and by example. Secondly,
we must seek special ,cis}om from God daily
Yes Irepeatifsge must seek special wisdom from
God daily; and it must be our business to pull sin
ners,out Of the fre--to warn them of their dan
ger, and to exhort them to escape from it. As
Christians, YOU must do something every day
for God, among our fellows travellers to eternity
How and when is that to be done you may ask
We are to do it by our example, BY cur exam
pie, if it be what it ought, Christians will be ex-
horted, sinners and ungodly men viii be warned
Take a case in point which will Illustrate Ibis
In village in the interior, was a lady who it was
said had been instrumental in the conversion
Of more sinners than all the ministers in that
gjon. At one time, when state of indifference
and coldncss3 had come oyer all the Christians in
that vicinity, she was grieved. Tut what did she
do Did she give up, the others had done
No She prayed, and she set holy example
But was this sufficient She thought not.
Could she go and exhort ard warn sinners in
public Could she take The place Of minister,
aud exhors. Oh that was net her place. Well,
