but there are some who do. They feed their
oxen, nurse them when sick, but never as
,ist in feeding or clothing their ministers.
There are thousands who respect the law OF
humanity, who in the meantime disregard
the law which gives the spiritual laborer
right TO a living. What does the feeding
OF the OK and the neglect of the
ministry imply but that they place
a CHER value upon his services than they
do upon that Of the Christian minister?
The American people expend
annually more in the support Of
their worthless dogs than they pay for the
support of the ministry. Who need feel
surprised that GOd has scourged this land
And will he not continue to scourge2it, I'M
less the people manifest higher apprscia-
ton for Swine things?
Paul next comes back to the rcnsonableness
of the law as we'll As the duty it enjoins.
