financial arrangements, .and an irregular
walk among the members do for a church
If you have been bound by these things,
go forward into the liberty where with
Christ makes his people free. Bondage
too has been the history of the universal
church, but deliverance has always come.
God has sent reformers like Luther Knox
and Wycliffe to urge the church to go
forward. These names carry us back to
chained Bible, priestly Interpretation,
and the confessional What - bondage
that was The whole Western church
was bound and manack by priestly domi-
milton like man in chains. But God
said to Luther almost as plainly as he
did to Moses, go forward, and he went
forward paving the way for Knox and
others, who wrought until Popes trem-
bled upon their thrones, until priestcraft
hid its head, and the church was free.
Wycliiie had already called the Pope
"anti-Christ," "the proud worldly prince
OF Rome, the most cursed of clippers and
purse cutters" He and men of like mind
first taught the people that the church
was not four walls, with priestly
hierarchy, but number of people, wheth-
er large or small 10 number, who were
banded together to worship God in sac
rament and song and who reverting to
the Scotch idea of the church going in
anu coming out, went forward to the
worship and service of God with an en-
lightened mind. In view of these blood
bought privileges Iexhort you to go for
ward.
Again Mr.. Taylor said This mandate
comes to those who are met by foes and
difficulties. Who, what people is not.
1t is often with US as with Israel, though
we have been delivered we are often pur-
sued by the old masters-enemies Pha-
raoh made ready his 600 chosen chariots,
and his horsemen, and his army, and pur-
suing the escaped Israelities overlook
them camping by the sea, beside Pihahi-
roth, before Baalzephon, Thus was Is
rael pursued by their old enemies, and so
the church has been in many crisis of
utter extremity. Separated from the
world, the powers that be, have striven
by force or by imperial favoring to bring
it under the sway of Popes, Kings and
States. When they could neither per-
suade nor conquer the church, they have
tried to crush her as in Wesley's time, or
driven her into back streets and alleys,
as were the Baptists in many country
towns in England. But thanks be to God
the enemies of the church have not pre-
vailed. They never shall, for it is writ
ten, 1.-The gates of He'll shall not prevail
against it, Seas have been divided, men
have passed through fire, and the church

said that none of Mr.. Smiths friends
