Mark xi¥,, 16, 16, Thoso words nre the Savior's last dommission to His diciples, ns roprosentatives of His Olurch, to the ond of its onrthly oxistence, Ex- traordinary gifts wore promised to them, that, in encountering the heavy forms of error, the forco of projudico, and tho powors of evil, it might be scon that tho‘y wora of God, and that thoy might obtan, by fho oxhibition of Divine Powor, a hearing for the truth. Thoso . gifts have beon withdrawn from tho Church ; butnow, ‘a8 at firat, tho grand commission to ovangelize tho world'is obligatory on Christ's pooplo and: 'now, na at first, are all who hoar tho glad tidin bouud to racotve them, and manifost their beliof and trust In Him who Is rovoaled for humen gal- vatlon, Buch I take to be the meaning of this' ‘command of our Blossed Savior. p .~ Chrlst hera speaks of the Gospol, and how it “must bo donlt with ; and I believe that tho prin-; clplos implied in this, the Ohurol's commussion, apply to my own (‘mrfluulur onse at this timo. ! ,Su‘m:r me to unfold, as briefly as possible, thoso' points s 0 1.. Ohrist horo spenks of the Gospal, *“Go yo iotonll tho world and preach tho Qospel io evory croaturo.” . | Firgt—Tho Gospel—what doos that mean? It iai Just n Lappy meseago; good nows, in_our old ‘Anglo-Saxon form,—Gud's’ spell,—God's good atory to man, It is good nows from God about tho way sinners may be saved; it is ‘*the Gospel ~of the grace of God,” * tho glorions Gospol of: Christ,” **the powor of God unto salvation to ovory ono that belioveth.” But what is: this’ ood news that we are to believe ? Paul, inspired’ God, gives us, tho Holy Bpirit's dofini- fon of thoGospol¢ " Brothan, T daciaro unto you tho Gospol,” How that Christ died for our Bing according 'to tho Seriptures, and that Ho' was'buriod, and that ho roso sgain the third day, according to the Scriptures.” (1 Cor._ xv., 1-4, * Ohrist died for our sins according to tho Seriptures,” The Beriptures had foretold that, : -oud what that was for, 3 * Mousiah was to be cut off, but not for him-. solf.” “All wo, like sheop, had gono astray,sud the' Lord lnid on Him tho iniquity of us all” XHis soul was made an offering forsin ; and ¥ by s kuowledge,” that is, the knowledgo of Him, tho rightoous ‘one, was to * inatily ‘many,” _Christ then died for our sins, That ‘Wwork of His the Yotbor was ploased to accept; and in tokon -thoreof raised His Son from the doad.’ This work plensed God; snd Ho I8 sondy to save eyory soul thaty trusting in Oliriat's finfshed worl, Iays hold of ‘what Cbrist hag ‘dove. 'Tho proclamation .of God’s willingness to accopt of tho belioving sin-; nor for Josus’ sale on tho ground of Hisstoning. work, this and this olonais the Gospol—tho good nowa. : i Second—And it is good news to all that hear it. Mun universal ncods it: “toman universal it oomes aa good nows. All aro sinners; sll noed salvation; all therefors who undorstand this nows of God's fiood will to ‘His erring offspring must wolcome tho messagoe. Wheraver sin brings sorrow, then 'Christ's Gospol is neceded aud should bfinfisjny. i} I But the Savior tells us, further, how this Gospel must be deals with. First—Thoso who hnve beon blorsod by <it, 'must tell others yeb ~without ify .light nna: ‘peace ond joy: - Every. ' Olris- tion onght to -\be ~ a missionary * for Ghrist, and pronch the Gospel. To sot apart an ordor of men forthut special businees, only parti- ally-reliovos tho Churoh of its duty in thisrespact. 4 Man canuot live by brend alono;” -but he can- ‘mot live on earth “without it, 80 because somo must work. to earn tho daily bread we pray for, it is fitting that othors should dovote tnewsclves {o'this highor work, and proaslt tho Gospel iy thio spocial businosa uf thoir livos, ~ But nover so can any olaed of men, however solemnly sob apart, reliove tho body of the Ohurch from obedience to this command as to make it conse to bo the huinblest member's duty, in the sphere in which Providenco has placod him, to.preach, Dy lip or lifo. the Gospol of the Blessed Jesus. Second—Those of whom it is preached must be- lievo it or be lost forever. It is the only Lopo of tho sinner. *‘There is no other nama given amongat man wheraby we must bo savad,” excopt that Namo above !l names, which is tho object rovenlod in the Gospol. “He that be- liovoth not shall bo damncd.”” Third—But it is not enough to bo- liove tho Gospel with an internal sc- coptanco and consent. 'There is an onte ward profession required. * Belleveth and is baptized,” snys the Bavior. .First bolieve, then ghow your beliof by su osternal token, Firat, tho disciplo is instructed in the truth which savos and {liou ho siguifies his acoopianoo of tho same, Ilow shall the world kuow that I have choson Christif I make no sign? An alion comes to Amoricn; Lo buys land ; settles down ; enys that Lo loves the institutiona of tho country; will that loye if unmam- fosted in outward - deod give him all the privileges of Amorlcan. oitizenship ? Certainly not. Declaro your intentions; take 1ho onth of fealty to the Constitution ; ehow by your conduct what you foel. Bo in marriago— an inward congont of hearts is shown by on qut- ward joining of hands. [Inlilte manner, Jesus, to intensily our own foeling of solemn obligation to lovo Him, and to manifest to others onrresolution to bo His, claims, nay, commands, that tho cou- vort shall show by an outward act' the feeling of his heart. The accoptod dofinition of baptisin is thus given ;. * It i un outward and visiblo sign « of aninward and apiritual grace.” Buc not any outward sign willdo. 'Thore is one appointod b God. The action is not indifferont ngll; Oh.rlfl{ bas fixed it : ¥ Boliovo and _bo baptized.” Thno Prosbyterian Church hns boon famodj for ro- jonling‘uvury form of will-worship—that i8, forma ©of man's invention. Tho Larger Cathichism tolls ihat we are roquired to ¢ rocoive, obsorve, koep puro and entiro, all such religious worsbip and ordinances as God bath instituted in His Word,"” (Q. 108), This outward sign, thon, must bo obsorved a Obrist instituted It Tho toxt ob- viously teaches this view. Dr. David Burns, on eminont Prosbyterian oxpositor, says of this passago: ‘¢ Baptism is horo put for the extornal nh}gunmm of tho innor faith of the Loart.” n 0., Our toxt has led us to this, that thero Gospel, that it must ba Hmui.en that it !‘:nn? bo boliéved, that the belief of it in the hoart must bo shown by an outward sign, and that that outward eign is baptism. All theso prinoi- ples aro given to us on the same Divino authori- ty,—tho voico of Christ, the Ohristian's Kin, and Lawgiver, laying down a lnsting oommnns and commission to His Oburch. IIT, Buffor me now to apply these prinoiplos to my own caso ab this Pruuunc crisis in my minis- torial carcor, Frankly Iadmit the poseibility of my bolng mistakou., As frankly must I do- claro that I boliove that Iam right, It pains mo to find myself in this matter opposed o mo many rospociod and boloved brethren; but every ono must walle by his own light, seoking guid® anco and graco from God, ‘Tho Presbytorian Ohurch has taught mo that *the Biprome Judge of all controversics + . . . canbomno other but the Ioly 8pirit spesking in tho Borip- ture," Mo that * Bupremo Judgo” Inow ap- peal.

Dr. Phillip Schatl, a Professor intho, Union Theological Bominary, Now York, perhaps tbo most thorough Biblical scholar in thoe Pres- bytorlan donomination, makes tho following declaration, in his History ‘of the Cluistian Ohurol : ** 1t is tho sacrament of ropentance, of romission of sins, oud of tho implauting of tho Holy *Ghost ;° and, in the naturc- of _the case, to bo rocoived bub onco.

Where thig'con~ dition of ropentance -and_fnith :a wanting, the blessing, &6 in tho caso of the supper and the proaching of - tho word, is turnad into a_ourso, ‘and whia” God designs aa o savor of lifo unto life, becomes, through tho abuse of man, a savor of doath unto death. facs ¢ Tho usual forco of the act was immerston, 08 is plain from the original moaniny of the Grook Baptizein and Baptismos ; from the anal- Oy of Jobn's baptism in the Jordan; from the AYostloa‘ confesgion of tho sacred rite with the miraculous passago of tho Rod Bea, with tho es- cape of tha ark from the flood,, with a cloansing tism, ] lmglmn oan only! |, 0 and_rofroshing bath, and with burial and resur- Toction ; finally, from tho custom of tho ancient Church, which' prevails in the Last to this dny.” (Pnfinu 129, 123, The history of tho Church conflrms this view. Coleman, n Podobaptist, says: * Immorsion or DX{:pIug: In tho primitive Church, immediately subsequently to ‘tho ago of tho Apostles, thin was undoniably tho common modo of baptsm.” (Aucient Uhrlstianity, p. 895.) This. = distin- guisliod Congrogationdlist admits thak tho prao- ico of immorsion continued in the Church until tho thirtecnth or fourtoenth century. About tho first oxampla of sprinkling -is that of Novatus, who, about_A.’D. 251, was, whon sick, “baptized by aspersion in the bod on which Lo Ioy,” as Cornolins, B[BhuF of Rome, phrases it, in Euscblus; but'Cornellus oxprossos a_doubl 88 to the validity of such & mode of adminiater~ ing this ordinanco. (Eusebius, B, vi., o. 48. Neandor says: * In conformity with the original institution and import of tho symbol, it E:p- tirm) was generally administored by immersion, 28 5 pign of total baptiem into tho Holy Bpirit, of being ontirely ponctratod by His grace.” Sflhumh History, Bohn's Ed, 1, XEO.) 0 8nys urther: * Baptlsm was at first administored only to adults, as men were acoustomed to con- colve baptism and faith ns strictly connectod.” (Ibid, p. 430.)

Dnptizing thus moant at first ' to plungo in wator or covor with water tho entire man," He quotes * burial in baptiem,” a phrase of Paul's, and Oyril of Jorusnlem to tho same effoct.
