hHA e4 WASHINGTON, Oct 16, 1870.
In the morning the pastor, Rev. John C. Smith,
D. d., preached very interesting sermon from
John ", xxiii.--'He that honoreth not the Son
honoreth not the Father which hath sent Him."
The term honor occurs frequently In the Scrip
lures and 10 applied to Jehovah, Father, Son and
Holy Ghost, as well as ourselves. John uses the
word ten times. In the twentieth chapter OF Exodus
1t occurs in the Firth Commandment "Honor tiny
father and thy mother.n This IL the rule in the D-
vine as well asthe human relation. When parents
are honored by their children the children secure
special blessing. Nor is this honor required To-
wards parents only but towards others also.
Thou shalt honor the hoary head" We are taught
TO respect the aged. Some think the Bible Is mys-
terious book and can DC understood only by priests
butthis ID not 80. Its truths are stated in simple
style and are for the instruction OF all.
