PASTORAL CALLS. A Methodist Divine on the Dangers ef Clerical Visite—How Ministers are Tempted and Fall—Emotional Parish- toners and Female Rakes. The followng able article upon the relations be- tween pastor and parishioners has been com tributed to the Unicago Inter-Ocean over the sig- nature of “An Old Pastor.” The Inter-Ocean edi- torially vouches for the fact that he is an old pas tor of the Methodist Church: ‘The saddening and scandalous tmputations which have deluged the land for weeks Das involving as they do one of God’s ministers, who Nas held bigh position apd was deemed by all'worthy of the most exalted respect, not tosay reverence, have turned attention to the relation which Protestant ministers sustain to the women who are members of their congregations, ‘The pastoral relation is freighted with immense possibilities for good. The educated man who brings his best thought and deepest Christian culture into that office to help men and women in their effort to attain a Christian char- acter may aod does exert an influence for good whose results are of incalculable value to society- But there is a form of ministertai labor incessantly | insisted upon by church boards and oficial over- seers of Christian societies, which, in the light of constantly recurring slanders ’and oceastonal actual lapses {rom virtue, seems to be of doubtful utility if not a real injury both to the church and its ministry, Tallude to pastoral visi- tation, The requirement that the minister unin- vited shall visit every family regularly as @ part of his official duty involves these facte:—1. He must spend a large part of his time im making these visits, 2. He must necessarily often visit at hours when he will find none present out the female members of the family, 3, He visits as a particu- lar and iutimace friend. 4. To him the ordinary barriers of mere formal politeness are laid aside, and he is met with cordial and confident intimacy. | Now all this is right in itself considered, and not ERRCCREELY prolific ofevil, Yet mtnisters are oF me iney are for the most part good men, and dis- | charge this duty with a conscience void of offence toward God and man, ‘Thousands discharge this duty consctentiously, without falling into sin; et we hazard notiing in saying that not ten in’ thousand but are terrivly tempted at times, ana that by good, conscientious, pure-minded Chris- tian Women, wio treat their pastor as though he could not thrili with @ natural desire and were already beyond the possibility of sin, ‘The minister, by the very necessity of his posi- | ton and calling, cultivates the faculty of | loving to the fullest possible extent, and his relation to his church 1s one of the deep. est sympathy and tenderness, itis ever dificult for those wlio have recetyed a soul apt ior love to hold that precious gift wicnin chaste limits. Such a soul wit! find it necessary to struggle with su- preme energy, and will sometimes be tempted to regret the gilt of such power 0! love, or to wish for more liberty in ita use, From chaste affections, tender sympathy aud genuine admiration itis but @ step to that weakness which is ruin, Ministers rarely consort with ubandoned women; they do not intend evidently a mere gratification of an unreasoning lust; they fali througn a real, though a wicked love. Too often we are shocked with she recital of the fact that some lady, eminent both in the church aud in society tor sweet and pure cnar- acter, and for her attractiveness to all intellectual persous, has become the victim of an illicit amour with her pastor, and in nearly every case the facts show that a close friendship developed under opportunity forced | upon the minister by a sense of auty into tender- | ness, and then these frequent opportunities Jed to those nameless little actions that are so innocent | and yet so dungerous—the pressure of the hand, the eye that suddenly melts as it meets the admrr- jug gaze, the tones so gentle and thrilling. These all tell that the loving tenderness of these two hearts has passed from the realm of the spiritual into that realm where soul and sense commingie their baleful but bewitching lures. Even at this point, i the minister is strong or the wo- Man wise, tue intercourse is oroken off without criminality, and there is deep and sincere regret and repentance on the part of the pastor and a joss of respect on the part ofthe woman both for herself and her minis- ter. Now I insist that shere ts no end to be accom- phshed by pastoral visitation of sufficient impor- tance to put any man in such dangerons social rela- tions as I have described. ‘The pastor shonid preach the Gospel, and to do this he needs nearly all the time—all of It tnaeed— in which he can do mental work. His ruought he can communicate in his sermons; the prayer and conference meetings are proper ‘places ior the in- fluence of the minister to reach the members of his charch in aid of their mdividua) religious life. The church sociable affords suMcient opportunity to cultivate social relations, and if there is work ior the pastor to do in the family let him be invited, If the occasion be important enough to demand his presence, the husband and wile, the parents and children, should ail meet the pastor, and thus pro- tect his reputation and their own, Along experi- ence in church matters has convinced us that the demand for personal pastoral visitation comes mostly from @ feeling that, in its absence, the pastor treats the peeps With disrespect, and not from any sense of a real religious need or this orm of ministerial labor. Since this subject has at- tracted my attention, Ihave made inguity of twenty tncmbers of Christian churches, snd while all an swered at once and without hesitation that it was ie duty of the minister to make pastoral visits, and that if he tailed they censared him, every one ad- mitted that for themseives they could not sa: they had derived any spiritual benefit irom su Visitation, but had greatly enjoyed tne friendshi, and gental cordiality of the visitin; ing pastors, have talked with many ministers, and they nearly ali say that this work, if methouically und regu- larly attended to, absorbs their whole time, and that they believe that a thorough and radical change at this point would be a benefit to the church and @ relief to its pastors. The Bible does notin terms lay this Work upon the minister, and | we feel certain that 99 in every 100 ministers who have yielded to sensuality have first yielded to temptations which came upon them while making pastoral visits. | “The writer knew a young minister of more than ordinary ability, of considerable culture, having the oratorical temperament and a Suscepubie nature, who, driven by his church officers to torai visiting, called upon a lamily, Pag the Ray alone and prayed with her. Taking nis hat to er she extended her hand and, clasping bis arm, trembled wita an emotion that could not be Misunderstood. The minister, suddenly as 1t came upon him, could not resist the fecling com- { mon to Tail humanity, and as this femaie rake laid | ‘her head upon iis breast, turning her moist lips and tearful eyes up to him, he kissed her—and was ruined. He never went into the pulpit again, but to-day wanders a broken-spirited seml-infidel, given over to every avominadie lust. 1 had the story trom his own lips, and do not doubt his veracity. He told me with tears that he felt that pastoral visiting was the cause Of his ruin. Now, sir, l insist that the pas- tor should not be driven by the demands ot nis church into @ service which is certainly danger- ous to himself, and in which, after he has once fallen, he becomes dangerous to others, and in | which the wolf in sheep’s clothing has such fatal facilities jor the seduction of women. Let the charches provide women to visit women, and let the pastor give nimscit wholly to the ministry of the Word, Let tt be tuily understood that ull passional affinities are not only weak but wicked, and let the pastor do lis work for hunan souis’ publicly, aud have done with this folly of pastoral Visiting, Which brings the pas- tor into tue family unannounced, When the pastor Visits in the family as pastor jet it indeed be a religious service, under the aid and with the assistance of tue father of the fat: ¥, instead of this intercourse that proceeds all too easily from a pure interchange of ideas to an Impure and dan- gerous sentimentalism. Mr. Beecher may not be gulity. We do not think his guilt is proved, and we feel that he has added his illustrious name to- that of hundreds of other clergymen oi lesser note Whose fair fame uas sudered, and whose power for good has been lessened, by a wrong view of the pastoral relation and an intunacy wit women Which would have beem accorded to none dat tne pastor. We have had enough of this, and we think Christian pastors should refuse to obey the de- mand, imperative a8 it 13, for pastoral visitation. When God stali commission angelsto the work of the Christian ministry such relations may be proper aud useful; bat while “men ol uke pas: sions” with other meu are pot in trost with this mUutstry they ough: to be guarded in their inters course Witl al! society, and espectaily in their in- macy with women.
