has earnestly endeavoured to preach the truth affectionately, and thus to win men's hearts to Christ; to convince them of their need of a Saviour, and to show them how lovingly that Saviour invites them to come unto Him. How far a gracious God may have seen fit to bless his unworthy labours, the Great Day will alone disclose. With regard to both his preached, and these his published, sermons, he would desire to adopt this prayer,

LORD, ACCEPT WHAT IS THINE,

AND PARDON WHAT IS MINE.

REVELATION 20. 11-15. And I saw a great white

throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the

earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found

no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and

great, stand before God; and the books were opened;

and another book was opened, which is the book of life:

and the dead were judged out of those things which were

written in the books, according to their works. And the

sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and

hell delivered up the dead which were in them; and they

were judged every man according to their works. And

death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is

the second death. And whosoever was not found

written in the book of life was cast into the lake of

fire.
