CHRISTIANITY AND TOBACCO.—How very contrary to the spirit of ancient Christians is the tobacco using religionist! How contrary to his own precepts and teachings! How he exhorts the sinner to give up all—every casual pleasure, in which he may enjoy himself—and accept Christ Jesus as all in all, when, at the same time, he thinks more about his tobacco than about God, and is known to fill his pipe oftener than he says his prayers. O that these tobacco Christians would see their folly, in pulling down with practice what they rear up by precept! O that they might show to the world, that they really believe what they teach! Show that they are really in earnest to do good, pluck out their right eye and cut off their right hand sin,—tobacco, and cast it away from them: and thus become a light indeed, to show the sinner the error of his ways.—Sel.
