on things below. When you come together, talk of what your Father
promised you; you should all love your Father's will, and be content
and pleased with the exercises you meet with in the world. If you are
the children of God, live together lovingly. If the world quarrel with
you, it is no matter; but it is sad if you quarrel together. If this
be amongst you, it is a sign of ill-breeding, it is not according to
rules you have in the Word of God. Dost thou see a soul that has the
image of God in him? Love him, love him; say, This man and I must go
to heaven one day. Serve one another, do good for one another; and if
any wrong you, pray to God to right you, and love the brotherhood.

Lastly, If you be the children of God, learn that lesson: "Gird up the
loins of your mind as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves
according to your former conversation; but be ye holy in all manner of
conversation." Consider that the holy God is your father, and let this
oblige you to live like the children of God, that you may look your
Father in the face with comfort another day.



BUNYAN'S DYING SAYINGS.



OF SIN.

Sin is the great block and bar to our happiness, the procurer of all
miseries to man, both here and hereafter; take away sin, and nothing
can hurt us; for death temporal, spiritual, and eternal, is the wages
of it.
