- 12SCOFFING.—To a young infidel who scoffed at Christianity on account of the misconduct of some of its professors, Dr. Mason said, “Did you ever know an uproar made because an infidel went astray from the paths of morality?” The infidel admitted he had not. “Then,” said the doctor, “you admit Christianity is a holy religion, by expecting its professors to be holy; and thus, by your very scoffing, you pay it the highest compliment in your power!”1 paragraphs

- 16THE USE OF RICHES.—The good that is in riches lies altogether in their use. If they are not broken, like a box of ointment, and poured out for the refreshment of Jesus Christ, on his distressed servants, they lose their worth. Therefore, the covetous man may justly write upon his rusting heaps “These are good for nothing.” St. Chrysostom tells us that he is not rich who lays up much, but he only who lays out much; and that “it is the same thing not to have as not to use.” I will, therefore, be the richer by a charitable laying out, while the worldling shall be the poorer by his covetous hoarding up. When thou, O Lord, takest the place of man, from thy high abode, where thou dwellest among the praises of the blessed, askest my charity in the person of thy needy people, assist me to take thy place, and to give alms, of such things as I have. Teach me, in giving my alms, to give my mind, to give my heart; to commit to thee, not only a little portion of my property, but also my body, my soul, my salvation.1 paragraphs

- 33CHURCH FAIRS.—The Reformed Messenger, expresses an earnest disapproval of fairs for Church purposes. It says that the parties engaged in them,—often “godly men and devoted women,”—“labor more and accomplish less, with less credit to themselves and less glory to God, by falling in with these worldly schemes, than if they would simply follow the Bible plan. We may get money by catering to the tastes of the world, but we sacrifice principle—and this is more precious than money.”1 paragraphs

- 46We are happy to learn by private letters from Bro. White that he is progressing favorably in the direction of health and strength. He is so that he performs without undue fatigue, the various duties pertaining to farm life, making out quite a day's work, then getting from six to nine hours' sleep, and waking in the morning free from pain. From his published reports, the brethren understand what he is able to do in the line of preaching. May the good work of restoration go rapidly forward. Latest advices also contain the gratifying intelligence that sister White is in excellent health. The church in Battle Creek hope to receive a visit from them, as soon as they can make it convenient.Editor1 paragraphs
