DIR. WILSON'S SERMON.
his text from Hosea, 2 IA: IS! "Therefore be-
hold.I will allure her and bring her into the
wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her,
and will give her VINEYARDS from thence and
the valley OF Achor for door OF hope" In
the Introduction Hosea was reviewed and it
was shown that throughout the book the
set forth. Gods enmity against the sins OF
Israel but His desire to save her from them.
lst. The allurement into the wilderness
was noted: God did not blot out his people
to Himself. He did not allow them to re-
main in the wilderness, but made 1t place
where He might speak comfortably to them,
and cheer them for their onward journey.
End. There He gave them liberty in the
place Of bondage Of sin TO which they had
been subject. ~.
3rd. Great possessions were given her
vineyards i. Q. all earthly joys. The valley OF
Achor the entrance In the land OF Canaan
hitherto cursed for the sin Of Achor now was
to be turned TO q door Of hope, aud should
lead TO land flowing with milk and honey
9Th. The agent by whom all this was TO be
accomplished. The Lord himself, as The wan
dering sheep are sought and reclaimed by the
Sheperd, so tenderly and lovingly, sinners
are reclaimed by Him. He demands that nc
we shall make no Gods Of Mammon or o
Pleasure, and In return He will speak con-.
tortably unto us and turn the valley OF a.
unto a door Of hope. 81
