spect to the Church in this parish. If you have a reasonable hope that you are a living member, this monthly remembrance comes to assist and comfort you. If you are consistent with your profession, bearing the fiery trial that is to try you, what words are too large-what expression too strong to describe the joy of the minister's heart in looking to you as his jewels? If, on the contrary, you go forth from your profession in Church, and my work is burnt up in the fiery trial, as the wood, the hay, and the stubble, what words can describe the awfulness of your condition-the fearful disappointment that awaits both you and me in the day of the Lord's coming? The command to depart into outer darkness will be issued to you— you will be stripped from my crown, and I suffer loss. I pray God of his great mercy to grant, that the consideration of this subject, now brought to a close, may be so blessed of Him, that it may lead each and all of us, very diligently to examine ourselves, whether we be in the faith.
