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. This w ill secure the presence of God
with, and among us; whence results both
he efficacy of ordinances, aid ihe stability
ind glory of the churches: For Christ walks
imong tt e golden can llestieks, and threat,
ns the churches, in c ?se of detection from
;ospel rules, to remove the cundfestic/: out

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."
