"God's elect." It was important that the apostlo nhonld dUtinotly specify w h o the perHOtis went against whom uo accuHatioii could justly bo al-leged. A n d what ternis could ho oinploy nu>ro ex-pro88ive of their character and relation than this ? It involvoi two idiiEB—GoiVa choice of a people Ih). loved. Tho term occurs in other places. "But for the dlecf's aako these days shall bo Rhorteuod." Matt, x x l v : 22. Ji'leoi according to the foreknowl-edge of God the Father." 1 Pot. 1 :2 . "According to the faith of God'ii e/ecf." TU. i : 1. "Ilia owncHecf." Luke x v i i i : 7. It is <iui(c oloar« (hen, that thoso on whofo bohalf thin challenge is made, are a people who,like their I/ord aiul Master, are "chosen of God and precious." Now, Scriptural as this doctrine is.lt cannot bo concealed that many anxious minds have made it a stuinbling'stone at the very threshold of their Mpirltuni carurir. The great mistake haa l>con tho making of tho doctrine of eloction tho starting point of their conversion, rather than « point to bo reached at a sul>scqunnt and distant part of their religious course. W i t h God it doubtless is the starting-point, If we may suppose a beginning w i t h iiiin wito has no begiuning~but not with man. Wo have In a previous chapter shown lhat our calling of God by tho Biiliit is tho premise, aud lhat our election of God by his love Is the conclu-sioii. Thus reasoning, as logicians term it, a p o s ' Icrfori, without having looked into tl»o niysterlous volume of tho Divine docrees, tho apostle, address-ing tho converted Thcflsalonians, could boldly say, "Knowing, brethren beloved, your olectiou of God." A u d liow did he know i t ? From thdir faith, their knowledge, their reception of tho truth, and its transforming tiirects on tiioir cliaracter. Adopt this mode of reasoning as youre, and ypu will no longer complain lha!t tho doctrino of olectiou is a perplex-ing truth, casting its deep aud gloomy shadow upon your patli to tho cross. In your spiritual voyage your calling by grace is like an IsUihms standing between two etornlties; the past, lit which God has choten his people; and tho future, in which ho wi l l glorify thom. Iloaeh this middle point and you are safe. ,

"It'is God that JUBtifleth." Wo believe that by "mny this cardinal doctrine of God's Jnstifleation is but imperfeotly understood,, aud but indistinctly seen in Its resulUi. Tlie lofty poaltlou of seourlty In which I t plaoos tho bollever, tho liberty, poaoo, and hope Jnio which it brings him, are poiuta d i m and obsouro In tho spiritual vision of W o

•also bollevo that much of tJio weak, ilekly Obrls^ tianlty of uumboi-a la traooablo, in a groat measuro, to tho erudo and gloomy coueoptioDB they form of Ood, produood by not oloariy seeing tho interoat Which ho fl)lt, and tlio iuttiatory part vrhloh ha took,

in tho groat matter of our JuslUlcjiUou, Let our faith bu« trace the act of our juMIHwlion to God, and wo have placed ourselves upon a vantago-(jround of the boldest d(i<lanco to all our onoinU's. Survey the triHh in Ihis l i g h t fhr a uiomeut, Against whom have you Hiniied ? AdopUug Ditvkl'* confession, you exclaim, "Atfalnst thee, and thee only imvo I sintied." H a v i n g sinned iigninst God, Irom God, then, you looke<l for the w)ndom«alloi». Y o u had vlola^d his law, and frotu tlui l lpi of ihe Lawgiver you wuKed the sontonw. When iol ho dwlarcH hImsoU oh your side. DcBccndIng, as from h b tribunal, ho comes and stands in your place, and ttvowa himself your Justifler. " I t is Goj> that jus-lilleth." Upon you, a culprit, trembling at his bar, he throws bis own rlghleousnes*, "which is unto all, and upon all them tiiat bollevo; and from thai moment you are justidod. bhall wo, then, bo in-dilltorent ta the part tho. Father took in tho great quoittlon of our accojifanco? Shall we chorisb the shy and Huspicious thought of God as if he looked coldly at us, and felt tliat, In pleading for his mercy, wo were infringing upon his rlghteoiisness? o i i , uo I A w a y with such thoughts of God I l i e it is who pronounces the actof your ucqniltal, and Irom his lips sound tlio glorious words, ".ifo Co-vokmna-noN I" "I t 1» Gofl that justilleth."

W o ai-o now prepared for the chailcngo based upon this truth. " W h o shall lay anything to the charge of (rod's clect?^' W h o in heaven; who on earth; who in hell? God wil l not ; sin cannot; Sa-tan dai-o not. Wlio ? I f tltere Ik> In this wide uni-verse an accuser of those whom God has juslillotl, let him appear. There is uouol Every mouth is closed. " H7t» shall lay anythiny to tho charge of God's elect?" If thture remain a sin unpardoned, a atain uneflaced, a procept unkrpt by tho Mediator of his church, let it appear. But there Is none I The work of Ciirist Is iionorabib and glorious. It is a iinished work. A n d ou (ho basis of (his complete atonement, God, while ho remains just, is tho jus-tiflor of him that bolleveth. Oh, embrace this truth, ye who, in bitterness of soul, aro self-ac-cnscd and solf-condemued before G o d ! Satan could acuuso aud the world could accu^c, but^noro severe and true than all, is the self-accusation which lays your mouth in (ho dust, in tho deepost, lowliest con-trition. Yet , as a poor sinner, looking to Jesus, resting in Jesus, accepted in Jesus, who shall lay anything legally to your chargc, since it Is G o d — tho God against whom you have sinned—wlio him-self becomes your Justlflor ? May you not with all lowliness, yot with all holy boldness, challenge evory foe in tiio pi-ophetlc words of Christ hiinsoll, "IIo Is near that justlfloth ine; w h o will contend w i t h i n o ? "

This truth is an olovatlng boca^iso a deeply sanc-titying onq. It exalts the prlnclplci, and these, In their turn, oxait tho practice of tho Christian. Oli I the thought, that it is God who justilies us at an expense to himself so vast, b y a saorifice to himself so prooioiis, Biirely is sulllotontly powerful to give thcv greatest Intensity to our pantlngs, and fervency to our prayers, for conformity to tho Dlvlno Image. Deep sorrows, and soro trials, and floiT tompta-(ions, wo moy have and must havo, if wo ontor tho kingdotri} but, what is >orrow, aud what is trial, and w h a t i s temptation, if thoy w o r k b i i t in us tho fruits righleoustiofiSi uiooton us root'o Jpbrfdotly for hoBVon, and waft us nearer to our eternal homo. I'ross, in humbld faith, tiiia preolouB trutii to yoiir heart, for God has fbrgiyen all, and ha* cancoltod all, and has forgotten alii and is your God fororor and over.

H e preaches "salvation by grace, wlthoot works wel or dry." tie thus preachca. The immediate results of the meeting were two hopeful eonverrions, an-other long clierished hope publicly profeated, the above-mentioned few edified, sinners more thought-ful, and the cause ol truth a d v a n c e d . n e v e r heard Bro. Porter, but a m told thef preach alllce. Br». Penn's style of preaching is just the same, a m sorry for the BapUst that calls him a Canp-bellite. Fraternally, W . M . PWCE.

RKMABKS.—We are acquainted with Bro. Wester, and his views are deemed peculiar by not a few <^Uie members of his Asso<datlon. He, like every sounti Baptist, preaches repentat>oe toward God and godly sorrow the mauKestatlon of it, and fkith in our Lord Jesns Christ for salvation, and in every case salvatioa before baptism,the blood, of Christ befora water, and uo Campbelllte or A.nniniai( wiu ever made out of such doth as this, or could live long under ita prei^ing. It is nothing short of perse-cution to charge a m a n w h o preaches such doctrine

as baing a Campbeliite, and those bearing tlie naxbe of Baptists can persecute to bo sure. The whole matter against Bros. Westei and

Porter is that tJher believe and teach that a peni-tent sinner can obtain pardon of sin, and peace with God through Christ without coming to "tlie mourner's seat," A n d it seems there af« Baptists w h o no more believe this,praetically, thanCsnpbell and Campbellites believe that a sinner can obtain tlie remission of siiu without immersion, and for the life of us we can see uo dilTerence in the prin-ciple—both are overt acts, and so held, and the one Is,as much the law qf panton as the other—*, e., pardon in oonnoctlon wiUi the obs^aaoe of an overt set. Whenever a sinner has been made to feel that he is lost, and that aalvatiott is aloae lis Ohrlst, th« inoment iM:comnlit* his ioat Idtd hii IliHils, w h m r e r be majr be^ oil the land w tbe ^

LAW AND GRACE; Olt,TIIE ClIRrSTIAN'fi KULE OFLIFE-VUAT IS IT?

xo. ni. THE decalogue tested by Auman nature.

• It is oommou to test human nature by tho ten commandments J but wo propose to test the ton commandments by human natuw. The ton com-mandments are a very slight test ot human nature, sinco no man is a respectable citizen^ who does not keep them Inriolate,much less a moral man , at heart and a OhrisUan. The moral law, viz.-"Thou Shalt lore the Ixird tliy God with all thy heirt, and thy nei|fhbor as Uiyself,? Is the severest test that human or angelic nature can bavsi hut the decalogue is scarcely any test of human nature whatever. Why ? Because there aro scores of ains that the decalo^ie does not forbid.

As 1 have already said, It deals with actions and not moUves, witli deeds not thought*, with the tongue, and tho baud, and Uie bo jy, not with, the heart. '

The decaloguo eondemns certain outward acts not the inward spirit nor purpose. For exaniiJlo: It cont|ins no command to love God or man. It does not condemn "hatred," "variance," Ijnpa-tienoe," "strife," /-wiath," "envy," "evil speaking "baek-bltlDg," "sclflshiiess," tho taproot of ill sin, "pridei»' "vanity," "boating," "malIce," "witch-craft," "ekeatlng,- '•soroery," "vulgar coiivor». tlon," "dl'uiiItonuOTS,''"obBceHity/ and over A SCON of olhei- t l iu wlilch are jdaiuly condomned by tibrial nnd, his ftpdsUa^ wi iJUrm Uuil i

"Morcovwr, the law entered that the offense might abound." "Fo? by the law was the knowledge of sin," What law ? Not tho decalogue, for It only niveakd certain i w , or sinful actions, whilo the moral low revealed «»», the principle of all evil. How did the moral law reveal sin as a principle? The t«8son»« of all sin Is selflshness, and the moral law, VIJS : love to God and love to man, Is the exact opposite of all selflshness. lience by the moral law is the knowledge of all fin, as a principle. But the dccaU»gue does not deal with sin as a principle, but with certain sins, or acts. IIow inadequate are tho ten commandments to justify a sinner, or to be a njleofIifetoa«ai,nt, when they are ImfiOlent to give righteousnuss to tho one or a perfect guide to the oilier. It waa powerless to reveal the malignity of sin or tlie demerit of sin. It was Im-potent to appease the conscience for past tins, and to cleanse the heart from present detllement. The defects of the law aro relative, liowever. It was not weak In Itself, that is the moral law. It was "weak through tho flesh," The moral law was "holy, Just and good," and so was the law of the ten commandments eo far as they went. The moral law failed In that it was too high for sinful man to reach, and the decalogue failed In that It was too low, and both alike became "weak through the flesh." As the Holy Spirit states it In Ezek. xx : 25: "I gave them statutes which were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live,"

8. The decalogue tested not by the letter, but br the t/>ir{L " '

If Is often said that the spirit of tho ten com-mandments and not the letter constitute "the moral law," and when implicitly obeyed, prodnce absolute perfection of character. Let ns apply the fast; That lit, a man mast not only not violate one of these statutes, he must not oven desire to disobey. Now, supiK>se a man does not even desire any false god, or any other god, iloes that necessarily Imply that ha docs dosiro the true God? He may not desire any God. Suppose he may not desire to make any graven Image of God, that does not prove that ho dosires to have God's real Imago stamped pn Ms own heart. Ho may not deeiro to UkoGod'a name in vain, because he does not bo-llovo Uiero is any God. He may not dssira to labor on tho Bahbath day, nor any other day. Ho mnV not wish to dishonor his father; no true hearted child woald so do, or even desire t!o do. Ho may not Wll, nor desire to kUI, he may not' oven hat^ hU brother, and so be a murderer« heart: he may b* toUUr fe«dIflkrantti>iWM»l»dr Moes.tbiia..ifi

"Wo have been conucctcd Avitli the Ba»liats t. r several years, and to tho best of our ability iiave studied both their polity and practice, as well UH the New Testament, and we hardly tliliik that tho above is a cloar expi'osslon of their views or tho teachings of tho Scriptures.

"We should, and wo will, pr«»uma thoy do acccpl their plain teachings. From thorn we learn thut tho king.lom Is a vlsible.organization that was wt up, called into cxIsfoHce by a definite organization, in tho days of the Kings of the Fourth Universal Empire-:the Roman (Dan. ii:.14); that it was set up by Christ during his earthly ministry and In the days of John the Baptirt. That the visible churches are tho constituents of Uiis kingdom. Jesus ChrlHt has a kingdom on earth and ho has churches. No one of his churches is his kingdom, but e a c b one IN a n Integral portion ortala l i lngdon . ' ' -^ . P. IViUiatnD, D. IX, Work on Oommitnton^ />.

If euclj church is an integer, then all tUe churches constitute the complete kingdom of Christ on earth, as says Dr. Harvey: "Tho churches ai-e Mc only disUnctivo and visible form of tho kingdom of Christ on earth."—rAo Church, pp. pttb-U$hed by the American ituplUl PuhticaUon 8o-ciety.

Tnat no one ever was or can be a member of a scriptural church, and consequently not of Christ's kingdom, without a scriptural baptism. It is by this rite that all aliens enter the local churchen, and, as wo have scon, no one can enter the klngdonj of Christ save by becoming a member of some local church, as no foreigner can become a citizen of this Republic except by becoming a citizen of some one of Its States. There is no such thing as a olUren-at-large. We think all our standard writers on church polity would reverse the Messenger's order, via.: instewl of saying that ho who Is not already In the kingdom has no business with bap-Usm, they would »ay with us, that no one over did or can enter tho kingdom save by baptism. And the King of the highway laid down this law: "Ex-cept a man be born of water, and"-.jidded to, tho birth-" of the Spirit, ho cannot enter Into the kingdom of God." (Jolin lii rS.)

laptism, therefore. Is the inlUatory ordinance Into hw kiu|fdom."-PrqA W. W. Oardner, TJ. JJ., Church Cbmnumion, p.

"It is by fiiith and baptism Oiat wo enter his kingdom. Tho eunuch, from tho moment of his baptism, belonged to the kingdom of Christ."—. 1.. P. WilUami, D. D,, Oommuniort, p.

Wo agree with tho Mmenyer, that ho one la ilt for baptism until, he Is borto o< God. And we agree with htm In believing and teaching that all who are truly born of Ute Spirit, are by that birlh Iho spiritual ohildron 6f Qod-. mombera of his spiritual fimlly-whlch does not Imply organic form, bHt wo believe Ohrisl's words, that without baptism no ona ovor did or can enter hia kingdom.

This is saying iilniost tho honest thing touching the subjects and act of baptium in the prlinitlve churches, ujjij ftr nj cs until Rome had perverted l>otb, us well as the design of baptism. When she taught that baptism i#, in ail cases, essential to sal-vation, it becauje a necessity to change both the MuljcGts and the act.

of baptinni; but the real (juestion now is, a olmr^h the right to change either the act or

I will preach the dedication sermon of the new church liouse at Fail Creek the flnit Lord's dUy in May. l/et the brethren come 'and we,wilt have a general hand-shaking and time of rejoicing.

Bro. Purler will preach the dedication sermon of the new house of worship recently erected at Shop Spring the first Sunday in June. Al«o, Bro. J. M. Robertson will preach the dedieation sermon of the new church at Lascassas the flrst Sunday In June.

NNU. NONILKTSOK UECLINIES.

We aro frequently asked. What aro ydtt going to do with Roljertson? We answer: Nothing, since he refuses to defend his arguments in Justiflcatlbn of intercommunion, or 1)e drawn into a difottsslon upon the communion question by.any newsxiaper corivspondenti Bro. Bolwrtson justifies his courw by spying that Dr. Graves has written a book upon the subject, and therefore a discussion of that book, or with Bru. Graves, is as far aa he wili go. i As Bro. Graves lias eiguifled his readiness to diaeuss tlie subject with Bro. Robertson, we hope to see the ifttter's new position ftiiriy tested.

There is one point In Bro. RobertMn's lotter to which I call attention—only one. He says: "For your own satisfaction, transfer your argument t4> baptism. Then tho point Is, the church at C. de-ciding who is to be qualified to be baptised for the church at E."

Every Blbla student well knows Ui t baptism Is one thing and tho Supiwr aimther. Baptism U for one thing, the Supper for another. Baptism is to be administered but once—the Supper often. The New Testament etearly defines both ordioances. Bro. Itoberuon baa said that baptism Is the door Into tlio ehuroh. The Supper is eonfinod to those who onler tho ehuroh by the door. Now, if bap-tism puts a man. into more than one church at a time, then there Is some, hope for Bro. It's argu-ments. While the churuh at C. may decide who Is qualified to be baptlKod for the church at E., la tho event of a transfer of niemberalilp (for thc'argu-ment is wortthles* wUbottt a translta' of naember-•ItlpK kMMO( to mynalnd, iifliMAlit to^tuttf^

Hundreds of old men yearly are jwingthe Braoe for uimk &M/iti with Invariablo iiatlAtoctton.

I do not claim Uutt tbeJiiJyttnc Ijung^Bmco will euro every dlueast hat fleah Ifl heir to; but it will

llove, whore it does not fully cure, all that groat army of ais and achea that soon break down the boat con»tl-tutipns, which ate caused by prp-lapiim of th* wtwote* toA/cA tmpwl the i^tud orgms. This ia the only matihanical contrivance ever dls-covered that uplifts tite abdomen rather than oompreeaea it, as all (ruaseado.

This Is what it do«, aa thoiaandfl who iwve used it aife prepared t« testify: It supports t h e l i ^ . ab<lo-men, stomach, funga and womb. therefore, prevents laaHlttide. hoawe-netw, piles, hernia, oonsumption, and that terrible disease,-i-dyspepiilA.

Xt.incroases the breatiiingcapaeity, and thereby gives strength to th« boUy«

It exspands and enlarges the lungs, and tlius renders breatmng tree ana eftsy, and thereby promotes din nation,

It relieves chronic cosiiveiwsa and piles when all other meaiis nave f^ed . •

It Invariably relieves all awo? ol fiTolapam ulerl in femaieB, a disease that no medicine can roaoh, because, like a broken limb, it needs mechani-eai support.

It relieves piles and prolapiut ani, by uplifting the lower bowels from the rectum.

It Is being used more and more yearly, as its value la known, by Bublic speakers and slngora, and by

lose having "weak lungs and backs; and by thyso having stooping shoul-dcn and Imcklng ooughsi tne sure l»recur»or8 of consumption. And many a sUfferer has been cured of dysiMjpsia and liver eonphilnt who had been considered in tn» last stage of consumption.
