A ems AND DUTIES OF CHURCH MEMBERS. ,f Tne outward s ns of church members, it ' is :o he hoped are not so numerous as that .. they may not he specified; but should it ' be undertaken to enumerate the sins of such ns make no pr. tensions to holy living, the 1 accomplishment of the task might well be considered hopeless ; lor the natural or un. ^ renewed person is as prone to evil, ns the sparks- are to fly upwards. The latter class c of persons, are not, however, universally guilty of flagrant crimes, in consequence 8 of the restraints of true religion on society 1 ?being under thecontiol of public opinion. Bui the true christian is influenced by high- r or tnotives,so fur as motives, can have any s influence, to walk circumspectly, setting a good example, than the man of the world, 1 however enlightened by human educa'ion J1 can possibly be; therefore, better conduct ^ is and ought to be expected from them, than from such os ore actuated by no higher ( motive, tliarr to s'and the test of public opinion. An old waiter and divine, John \ Ftovd, has enumerated some of the sins , ^ rarnt incident to church mcrqhrrS, which I J have thought |>roper to copy, w i U his remarks* H ith tho hope that it may have the effect to put tlH'tfi to self-examination, and 1 uuth r a proper r< stra nt. I. Tim first and more general sin of church members, is a defect in tie ir care and circumspection to prevent all just offences to them that are w.tlinur; fornidden. Col. tv 5. By a careless disregard of this rule, ue harden the wicked in their sins, bring guil: upen ourselves, and reproach ^ upon the name and ways of God. (1. Tin* second and more p iricular sin of some church members, is idleness and ' neglect of'heir civil callings ; against the ( express rule, 2 Thess. tii. 11, 12. This * brings poverty on themselves and slander ( on religion. III. The third sin is tale bearing, and j revealing the secrets of families and persons; whence many strifes arise, to the c -cling t and quenching of mutual love ; express. < Iv forbidden, Lev. xi.x. 1G, and 1 Tim. v. < 13 t J V.. The fourth sin is an easy credulity s of private whispers, and rash censures I f then upon. This we ought not to do against i \ the meanest member, 2 Cor. xii. 20 ; much ! c less against church officers, 1 Tan. v. 19. 1 Thus strikes at the bond of peace. c V. Tneir fifth sin is in their neglect of Gods ordinances u|?on slight diversions, v ?L ?- ! iz? .!?i u ,.4 ! v wncn meyare noiinvr urouuiuu uy num^ui j ? necessity or mercy : contrary to Heb. x. J d 25. Trivial occasions should divert no j b chrislians from attending upon God's o di-!' nances. j <J VI. The six b sin is a defect in zeal for j l! God's ordinances, manifest in their dilatory ;11 attendance; contrary to Psalm oxxii. l,.h imd unsuitable to their first practice. Gal. v iv. 15. I Vlf. The seventh sin is irreverence, and v want of seriousn'ssunder ordinances; con. 1 trary to Psalm Ixxxix. 7. And this is man ^ ifest in vain attires, 1 Cor. xi. 10; and * unseemly postures and gestures, Ecc/es. v. 1 I. c VIII. Tie eighth sin rcprov.ible in l< them, is the neglect of giving and tuking ^ clue reproo's from each other ; contrary to Let. xix. 17. And Christ's own rule,Mat. ^ xviii. 15. And so for tuking reproof, ; Psalm cxli? 5. IX. The ninth sin, is, mutual strif', nnd j j, animosities, not seasonably and prudently 1 v Composed among themselves, but scanda- ! Jously exposed to the view of the world; H contrary to the Apostle's rule, 1 Cor. vi. c 5, 6. d X. Their tenth sin, is, the privateness of b their spirits, centering to much in their own y concerns ; expressly condemned, Phil, i. j t? 21. And contrary to scripture example, 2 Cor. xi. 29. c *%Duties enjoined on Christians in the Scrip, ft ture; in the cons tendous discharge h whereof they receive signal fruits of I God's favour." " n I. Their first duty is, to he orten tog"lh?T in acts of Chris'inn communion, 11 MaLii?. 16. Sucli meetings for pr iyer, fepeiiiion of sermon Christian Conference, gi^ailv coriduee to mutual edification : n which is tire principal indention of Christian ^ fellowship, Eph. iv. 15, 16. s II. T heir second duty, is, to follow and ; ^ back the great design of the gospel in'o c the tcor/d,^t in assist the public min- s istry, by and prudent helping a on the conv^N^P^f iho carnal a:.d cureless r world. Phi', iv. 3, Rom. xv. 30. S III. Their third duty, is, humble conde. jfl seen ion to the infirmities of the weaker i s brethren, and denying themselves in what n they can without sin. .hat lhey give them a no offence, Rom. xv. 1, 2. ' IV. Their fourth duty, is, to be exceed. 0 ing 'ender of the churcii's unity, both in n judgment, love, and practice, avoiding (as much as may be, and us for as the gospel P rule allows) oil causes and occasions of division and separa:ion, Rom. xvi. 17, and Phil, ii. 1,2. V. Their fifth duty, is, a respectful cor- "? riage towards the meanest Christian, and a to have higher esteem of others than themselves. External things make no difference j with Christ, Rom. xii. 10, Gal. iii. 28. Yet c a decorum is to be kept suitable to civil: b difference, Eph. v. 21. rVI. Their sixth doty, is, moekly to re. ccive reproofs from each o;her for their sins, s especially whtn the matter is just, and the d manner of delivering it regular. Psalm 'I cxli. 5. tl VII. Their seventh duty, is, to contuni- w cnte their spiritual stock of gifts, graces, and la experiences, not interfering with public d officers, nor by sinful partiality including o many others, (to whom it is as due, and w who may have more need,) from the h benefit thereof. 1 Pet. IV. 10 ; 1 Tim. v. ul 2L k VIII. Their eighth duly is cheerfully to communicate their outward good things for sj the relief of their brethren. Heb. xiit. 16. tc And the better to enable them hereunto, to it bedil'gent in ther caMings. Evh. :v. ^8 ?: ind especially to make comfortable provis j >n for their ministers, not by way of courtey but duty, 1 Cor. ix. 14. IX. Their ninth duty is not only tore, eve the distressed members of Christ, but > seek them out, and visit them ; to know leir spiritual and temporal wants, in order ) the full discharge of that duty. James i. 7. X. Their tenth uty, is, to put charitable oustructions upon doubtful words and ac. ons; and it either will admit n double ense, always to take it in the fairest, acording to the law of charity. 1 Cor. xiii. And such a charity will defend and naintain church-peace and unity. IX BENEFITS OF WALKING BY THESE BOLES. I. Strict and heedful at endancc to these ules, will put a lustre upon religion before he world, and make it glorious io the eyes >f such as now despise if. Titus ii. 10.? A7hichjhe here speaks to encourage all to irdinaie walking. II. This will allure and win the W( rid >ver to Chris', and wonderfully prosper nnd iirther :I?e design of the gosptd. Ph'ri. ii. 15, 16. III. Tiilj wt4-~gLciually stop the mouths >f n 1 the detracting and btaspiieniiim enemies of religion. 1 PtUr ii. 15. IV. This will eminently glorifv God ; which is the ultimate end of our beings.? Malt. v. 16. V. This will fill the people of God (by wny of evidence) with much inward peace. Gal. vi. 16. VI.

Rev ii. 1, >. FILIAL AFFECTION.?A TKUB STORY. In a seaport town in one of h; most dislanI provinces of France, here lived a merchant woo had carried on the trade with qua! honor and prosper.ty, until he was urned fifty yea is of age ; and then, by a sudden series of unexpected and unavoidaile loss' s, found himself unable to comply vith his engagements; and his wife and thiklren in whom he placed his principal inppiuess. reduced into such u situation us ioubled liis distress. fits sole resource in this s id situation ras the refl ction that upon ihe s rictcst reiew of liis own conduct, nothing of impru. lence or iniquity appeared. Ue thought ?est tliereforo to repair to Paris in order to iy a statement of his uflhirs befoie his erelitors, that being couvincod of Ins honesty, hey ijjiglii be induced to pi y his inisforiinus and allow him a reasonable space of iip.o to settle his afTairs. lie was kindly eceived by some, and very civilly bv all.' .''roio whence tie ree? iv? d great btrpcs> iluch he communicated to his I am Iv ; but he.se were speidily dished by the cruelty | if his principal creditor who caused him to ie arrested and j ut to jail. As soon as his melancholy event was known in the I ountry, his eldest son, who was about nine, cen years old, listening only lo tiic dictate s if filial piety, came post to Paris, antl threw limseli at the feet of his obduriite creditor, a whom he painted the distress of the famL f in the most pathetic terms, but w thout fleet. At length, in the greatest agony of lin I, he said,' "Sir, since you th.nk nothig can compensate for your loss but a ictiin, let your cesentr.eut devolve on mc. jet ine suffer instead of my father ; nnd iho miseries of a prison will seem light in proofing the lihert y of a parent to console the istressed and distructud family I have left ohind me. Thus, sir, you will gratify our vengeance, without sealing this irreievable rum. And here his sighs and >urs stopped his utterance. (lis fi ber's reditor beheld him upon his knees for a ill quarter of an hour, lie then sternly bid im rise and sit down, which he obeyed? 'he gentleman then walked from one cor. er of the room to the other, in great agj. lion of m nd, for abou; the same space of me. At length throwing his arms around ie young man's neck, "I find," said he, there is something more valuable than mo. ey ;?I have an only daughter, for whose Ue I have the utmost anxiety. I am reolved lo fix it; in marrying you she must e happy?go, carry your father his dis. '""'T"?nolr hi'a rnnvfnt?brine* him in. llUi WWI% IIIW vvawv... r ? tonily hither?Ut us bury in t he joy of this lliance, all remembrance of what has fornerJy happened*" Thus the generous fratitude of the son relieved the calamity of he worthy father. The man who haJ conidered wealth and happiness as synononous terms, was freed from thai fatal error; nd Providence vindicated the manner of s proceeding by thus bringing light out f darknesss, and although a short scene of nisf ry rewarded a virtuous family with lsiing peace, in the enjoyment of that proserity which they so richly d< served. REMARKS OF JOHN NEWTON. 14 Much depends on the way wo come uto trouble. Paul and Jonah were both in istorm, but in very different circumstances. 44 1 went one day to Mrs. G 's ust after she Imd lost all her fortune ; I ould not be surprised to find her in tears, ut she snid, 4 I suppos" you think I am rying for my loss ; but that is not the case -I am now weeping to think I should feel o much uneasiness on tin; account.' After lat, I never heard her speak a?ain upon 10 subject as long as she lived. Wh}', now, lis is just as it should be. Suppose a man S3 going to Yurk to take possession of a irge eMate, and his chaise should tireak own a mile before he goi to the city which bliged him to walk the rest of the way ; hat a fool we should think him if we saw im wringing his hands, and blubbering out 11 the remaining mile, 4 My chaise is bro. Kn ! my chaise is broken !" 44 My principal method for defeating herey, is by establishing truth. One proposes > fill a bushel with tares ; now if I can fill first with wheat I shall defy his attempts." Newton's Life. CATTTIOIT. .
