KLMGI0U6 LXPEKIEXCS.
Timagh innn in his na?tim! stale is spiritually
dead, that ;s, entirely destitute of any
spark f! tt'U; holiness, yet is lie still a reasonable
being. and tins a conscience by
tvhich he is capable of discerning the d-ff-r
. nice between good and evil, and of feeling
the force of moral obligation. By having
ins sins brought dearly U-lbre his mind,
and h's conscience awakened from i s stupier.
he can be made to feel what his true
condition is ns a transgressor of the holy
law of t*od. This sight and sense of sin
under the influence of the common opera,
tions of tae spirit ol <jud is what is usually
styled conviction of sin. And there can be
no doubt that these views and feelings may
be very clear and stiong in an unrenewed
mind. Indeed, they do not differ in kind
from what every sinner will experience at
the day of judgment, when his own con?
science ui! condemn him, ami he wiij stand
.....itw before his Jud^e. But there is noih
f, - cuj^r
J- t{,;? Kill'] of conviction which has any
tendency to change the heart, or lo make it
teller. Some indeed have maintained with
some show of reason, that nndc-r mere legal
convieton, the sinner grows worse and
worse ; und ccr'atn'y he sees his sins to he
greutcr in proportion as the light of truth
increases. There is not, therefore, in such
convictions, however clear und strong, any
approximation to regeneration, it cannot
be called a preparatory work to this change,
in the sense of disposing the person to receive
the grace of God. The only end
which it can answer is to show the rational
creature h s condition, and to convince the
sinner of hisubs Juib need of a Suviour.?
Under convction there is frequently a tnore
sensible jistng of the enmity of the heart
nguiusi God and his law; but f< clings of
tins kind do not belong 10 the essence of
conviction. I here is also sometimes an
awful apprehension of danger ; the imagination
is filled with strong images of terror,
nn 1 hell seems almost uncovered to the view
of the convinced sinner. But there may be
much of tins feeling of terror, where there
is very little real conviction of sin ; and on
theo'lier hand, there often is deep and p rnianeui
conviction, where the passions and
imagination arc very little excited.
When the entrance of light is gradual,
the efTeet of an awakened conscience
is to attempt to rectify wh it now appears to
have been wrong in the conduct. It is very
common for the conscience, nt first, to be affected
with outward acts of transgression,
and especially with some one prominent offence.
An external reformation is now hegun
; for this can be effected by mere legal
convic ion. To this is added, an atten ion
to the external duties of religion, such as
?! #. D.I.I. ? ltr,n ll?n -d
piujiui jruuuij; inu uiu.c, iwu >YUIU.
dec. Every thing however, is done with a
legal spirit; that is with the wish an 1 ex.
proration of making amends for past ofF*n.
cw; and if painful pennnncs should be
prescribed to the shiner, he will readily submit
to ihem if he may by this means make
some atonement for (lis sins. ?>ut as the
hgiu increases, he begins to see lliat the
heart is wicked ; and to be conv need that
his very prayers are polluted for want of
right motives and affections, lie of course
tries to regulate his thoughts, and to exercise
Tight affections ; but here his tdf ?rt?
prove fruitless. It is much easier to reform
the life than to bring the corrupt heart into
a right statu. The case now begins to appear
desperate, and the sinner knows not
which way to turn for relief, and to cap the
climax of his distress, he comes at length
to be conscious of nothing but unyie lding
hardness of heart. He fears that the con.
i _ i - i : _
viuioii wn-cu no secmeu 10 nave is gone,
?(? ] lliut I e is left to total obduracy. In
tiiese circumstances, he desires to feel k<en
compunction and overwhelming terror, for
liis impression is, thut be is entirely without
conviction. The truth however, is, that his
convictions are far greater, than if ho experienced
that sensible distress which he
so much courts, in this case he would not
think his heart so incurably bad, because
it could entertain some right feeling, but at
it is, he sees it to he destitute of every good
emotion, and of all tender relenting*. He
has got down to the core of iniquity, and
finds within his breast a heart uususcc pt.blo
of any good thing. Does he hear, that others
have obtained relief by bearing such a
preacher, reading such a book, conversing
with some experienced Cluistian he resorts
thcsume means, but entirely without ef!? ** .
The heart scents to be more insen%bit-,
in proportion to the excelk nee of the
nit'ttiiA enjoy < (I. 1 hough he declar s he
has t.o scnsibili y of any kind, yet his anx.
lejy increases ; and perhaps lie determines
t<> ^.ive himself up solely to prayer and read.
?ng the B.bie; and if he perUlies, to perish
neek ag lor mercy. But however strong
mkIi resolutions may bo, they are found to
ho vain ; for now, w hen he attempts to pray
he finds his mouth, as it were, shut, lie canLot
praV. He eunnot read. He cannot
meditate. What can he do? Nothing, lie
has come to the end of his legal efforts;
end the result has been the simple, deep convieiion
di?t he can do nothing, and if God
does not mercifully interpose, he must inevitably
perish. During ail this process ho
hud seme idea of the ncd of divine In lp;

gives himself op for lust. I Jo no: say, that
fliis is a necessary feeling, by any means,
but know that it is very natural, and by no
means uncommon, in real experience. Bat
conviction having accomplished all that it ts
< apable of effecting, that is, having emptied
' \ the creature of seif-dopendence and selfrighteousness,
and brought him lo Hie lit.,
most extremity?even to the borders of despair,
it is time for God to work. The pioV*

. So 4. iS lo th.s case , and at thts
ft < ??? , na y reasonably be sjpposod, the
R :it-ru M t." ighr; for 3 !?/. A
state of feeling is now experienced. Upon
culm rellcciion, God ap|?ents 10 have been
just and good in all his dispensations ; the
blame of its perdition ilio sou! fully lakes
upon itself; acknowledge* its ill desi rt, an I
acquits God. "Against thee, thee only have
I sinned and done this evil, that thou mightest
be justified when litou speukest and clear
when thou judgest " Tbc sinner resigns
himself info the hands ol God ; and yet eo ?
vinccd that if he do?s perish he will suffer
only what his sins deserve. It does not
fully discover the glorious plan according
to which God can he just and ihejustifier of
the ungodly who believe in Jesus Christ.
Tiie above is not given as n course of
experience which all real Christians can p'~
cognize us their own, hut as a train of exercises
which is very common. And so I do
not consider legal conviction as ncejssai)
to precede regeneration, bur suppose there
are cases in which the first serious imp res..
1 s'ons may be the effect of regeneration, I
| cannot of cours", consiJer any particular
j train of exercises under the law as essential.
It has been admitted, however, that l?.g.' l
conviction does in fact take place in most
instances, prior to regeneration ; and it is
not an unreasonable inquiry, why is the sinner
thus awakened ? What good purpose
docs it answer ? The reply has been uL
ready partially giv? n ; hut it may be re.
marked, that God deals with man as an uc
countable, moral agent, and before he rescues
him from the ruin into which he is sunk,
he wouIJ let him see and feel, in soine
measure, how wretched his condition is ;
j ho w helpless he is in himself, and now in.
j effectual are his most strenuous efforts to
deliver him from his sin and misery, fie
is, therefore, permitted to try his own wis.
dom and str< ng. h; atid finally, to lead him
.j totho full acknowledgment of his own guilt,
. j and to justify ihe righteous Judge who condeinns
liim to everlasting torment. Convi^iic
n, then, is no part of a sinner's salva(tiori,
but the clear practical knowledge of
the fact that he cannot save hansel', and is
entirely dependent on the saving grace of
God.

From the New York Observer.
NO HOPE. I
The night must be very dark that has no j
star. Teat heart most be very dark that |
l?as no hope. Whose path is not cheered '
by the star of hope ? Tire 6aiior fixes his
eye upon it in the wilderness of tiie sea.
The traveller in the desert passes on his |
weary way while hope promises that his I
journey's end ts near. The Christian?a
j manner in a boisterous sea?a traveller in
I u iiowIi.K/ wilderness?is sustained hv hone
as an anchor to his soul.
Sinners have hope. ft can scarcely be,
possible that any man can live unconcerned
without some secret assurance of future
j good. Despair wouM soon wear out life.!
But it roust ho a n?is(,rablu hope that an '
I inipenilent sinner hugs to h a heart. I; |
| must prove like the phan'o-n that vKneas j
j embruccd, which vanished as often as he j
i caught it in his arms. There is the hope
of the hypocri c?it deceives its owner
more tli m o hers. But the sinner thinks
any hope better than none, and hangs iiis
cterni.y on a spider's tveb.
One hopes in '.lie fulness of the atone,
ment. He thinks C ir.st has made fo
glorious a sacrifice for sinners that none
need fear of failing to rtnd forgivce-ss. fie
loves to dwell on ttie all sufltcieucy of the
atonement, and counts largely on being redeemed
among the multitude that no man
can number. But he inak?'S a fatal mistake. |
If the aionemcnt had been ten thousand j
times more full an I free it would not avail
for him, unless he complied with the terms
j on which it was ofT< red. If Christ had
j died but for one sinner, t!ia? sinner could
not be saved except lie repented and be.
J lieved. The m ,pi:s of that sacrifice must
be applied by the Ilul\ Spirit, or it has l?eeu

i fin?J the Saviour ami builcJ on him, or when
! the storms of trial come, ho will discover,
! too la'e, that the house wus built upon sand
That hope was worse than no hope. It
cheated luirt into a fatal security, and ruined
his soul.
Another hopes in the goodness of God.
| He is a God of love ; he takes n> pleasure
in the death of the wicked; he is slow 10
anger, and delights in mercy more than in
j sacrifice. Such a hope the Universalis
| cherish. Tin y buiid on this and he fullness
J of the atonement, and Hatter themselves that
ihey are safe. Many who do not hold to
! the whole scheme, have a secret hope that
| GotJ will he good to then), and never send
them to hell, w hatever he may do to tlm-vcs,
and murderers, and adulterers. But God
never encouraged such a delusion. He is
good ; nil good, but Ins goodness would b*j
strangely kmd if it prompted htm to set a
j bounty upon sin?to throw open the door
| ol heaven and ofT r hr* hrones and crowns
to unwashed wietchtg at whose deeds of
blood the earth turns pale. And yet this
is the scheme ot Umversalism. God is
merciful and God is just. Justice requires
sin to be punished and not awarded. God
will do the thing that is right and avenge
the majesty of his huv. His goodness will
appear in the final punishment of tho very
sinner who had presumed on that goodurss
and continued in sin. That hope

Another hopes tn his own righteousness.
He thanks Uod that ho is not as other
men tire, and counts his deeds of charity* and
i thoughs of heaven, and woids of love, as
i so many jewels that will buy salvation for
him. do has no douht that the wicked
; around him will be sent to hell, hot he will
i be saved for wlnt he has done and will do
as long as he lives. And when ho find*
himself at the judgment-sent without a farthing?with
no friend 10 plead for him, and
j n cloud of witness* s condemning him with
awful clearness to a sin ma's doom, h?
j wakes to the discovery that his hope woi
J no ho|>e.

with those who promised themselves
111:t they would repent hereafter?when
they were a li'tle older?when sick nests
come?when death was near?but death
came in a day and an hour that they looked
not for it, and they went into eternity with
no hope.
1 s ood by n grave 'hat had just been
opened to receive the remains of one w ho
had died in the midst of youth and sin.?
He had paid a decent respect to religion,
and intended to seek and find the christians
hojKJ before he died. Hut sudden sickness
seized him, bereft him of his senses, and,
in a few days of life. And there he lay. The
open grave seemed to murmur, "N*j hone."
The sobs of pious heart-broken parents
cried No hope. Tut* clods, ns they fell or?
his bosom, gave back from the hollow eofi
fin those same sad words, No Hope. And
I as I conic away f rom that grave the thought
tint crowaed itself continually upon my

50 SUBSTITUTE FOR VISITING TUE AFFLICTED.
"I was in prison, and ye came unto me,"
it the top of the climax in that beautiful!
description which our Savior gives of those
who shall be acknowledged his friends at
the last day, nnd to which he subjoins this
explanation, "inasmuch as ye have done it I
unto one of tho leas: of these, my brethren, j
ye have done it unto ine." This was a
stronger proof of friendship than giving h:m
meat when lie was hungry, or drink when
ho was a thi s: ; and it was the only proof
which, m the circumstances, could be sus.
tained. If Onesiphorus had made some in quiries
aft< r Paul, but on finding it dilliculi
to discover the pi ice of h s confinement had
dcsis'ed from them, and left with some
member of the Roman church his a fleet ion.
ate Salutations 'o the apostle, together wi b
a sum of money to support him in prisot,
think )ou my brethren, that this would iiave
been accepted as a sufficient token of re?
gard, or that ii would have refreshed the
soul of the nrisoner? Verily, no. In that
ruse, Puul would have been disposed t*
reply to Ins message in the words which *
poet has put into the mouth of a female
mentioned in the New Testament, visi: <?
and retain thy gifts." The present would
"have been regarded as a i affront," am!
the salutations as a renunciation of friendship.
Nothing, we may be sure, which
was needful to relieve the temporal wants of
the apostle, or which could help 'o lighten
I his chain, or alleviate his sufferings, would
j be w ithheld by this aff.-cdonate and munificent
friend. But if anything of tins kind
j was given, it was not thought worthy of
being mentioned at the same time with his
personal visit. Upon this Paul set a I
higher value than upon "all the substance J
of his house." To see the face of his an!
cient benefactor before lie died. u? n ce.ve
! his cordial and Christian embrace, tu he ir
| aga:n his well.known and never, forgotten
j accents, to h-arii from his own lips what he
'had heard from the rupor.s of o la-re, that
[ he retained all Ins former love to (Jurist, to j
| his Gospel, to his servant, this, "this was j
refreshing." This made all the garments i
of his visitant to smell of irjyrrli, :i!oc?, ami
cassia; and concerted ins narrow and
gloomy cell into tin ivory p dace, in which
he could entertain and make glad his guts:.
