* Most of the churches of New England, for some time after the settlement of the country, had, besides a pastor and a teacher, and two or more deacons, a ruling elder, or ruling ciders, whose "business," says the author of Ratio Disciplina, "it was to assist the pastor in visiting the distressed, instructing the ignorant, reducing the erroneous, comforting the afflicted, rebuking the unruly, discovering the state of the whole flock, exercising the discipline of the gospel upon offenders, and pro- moting the desirable growth of the church."
The name of but one Ruling Elder is mentioned in the Records of the Old South Church. This does not prove, however, that none others were ever chosen. There is no mention in the records of any Deacon having been chosen till Nov. 1685; but we know that the church had not been till that time without Deacons.
t In the early periods of the New England churches, the Deacons were ordained with prayer, and the laying on of the hands of the pastor.

Rules of the Old South Church in Boston in relation to the admission and dismission of Members.
MARCH 27, 1826. Voted, That hereafter the follow- ing shall be the method of proceeding in relation to appli- cations for admission to this church on dismission and recommendation from other churches, viz: The applicants shall be conversed with by the pastor for the purpose of ascertaining whether they approve of the covenant, and are disposed to conform to the faith and government of this church, and their letters of dismission and recom- mendation shall be examined and approved by the com- mittee already appointed for that purpose, agreeably to a vote of this church passed Jan. 1, 1816. If the pastor and the committee are satisfied with the results of their examinations, the names of the applicants shall be men- tioned, as applying for admission to this church on dis- mission and recommendation from other churches, at the same times at which persons applying for admission on profession are propounded. At the expiration of a fort- night from the time of their application being thus men- tioned before the congregation, if no objection to their admission has, in the mean time, been stated to the pastor, their testimonials shall be read to the church and the vote taken upon their application, immediately before the usual proceedings in relation to the admission of those who are to be received on profession.
Voted, That in conformity with the spirit of a resolu- tion adopted by this church Jan. 1, 1816,-it be a stand- ing rule of this church, that members, who shall absent themselves from the communion of this church and asso- ciate in attendance on divine ordinances with other churches, be expected to apply for a dismission from this church in order to their regular admission to the churches with which they statedly worship and commune, within two years from the time of their thus ceasing regularly to commune with this church, or sooner if convenient; and
*1
6
that when members of this church so worshipping and communing statedly with other churches, shall not apply for a dismission till after the expiration of two years from " the time of their ceasing regularly to attend on Christian ordinances with this church, they be required to accom- pany their application for a dismission and recommenda- tion with a certificate, from the pastor, and when there is no pastor, from one of the other officers of the church with which they have been in the habit of communing and to which they wish to be recommended, testifying to their correct deportment since they have worshipped and com- muned with said church.
Voted, That members of other churches who shall statedly attend worship and communion with this church, be expected and desired to obtain a dismission and recom- mendation from the churches of which they are members to this church, within two years, or sooner if convenient, from the time of beginning thus regularly to attend Chris- tian ordinances with this church.
MARCH 1, 1827. Voted, That the names of persons whom the pastor intends, from time to time, to be pro- pounded to the church, be mentioned to the brethren and sisters of the church at a meeting at least a fortnight be- fore the time of their being publicly propounded from the pulpit on the Sabbath.
COVENANT.
-
The CONFESSION OF FAITHI of the Old South Church is that "owned and consented unto by the Elders and Mes- sengers of the Churches assembled at Boston, May 12, 1680," of which all its pastors, since that time, have been required to signify their approbation, previously to their admission to the church in preparation for their ordina- tion or installation; and a profession of belief in the fun- damental doctrines of which, is received from candidates, and announced to the brethren, by the pastor, previous to admission to membership.
The following form of COVENANT was adopted Nov. 3, 1769, and is the present Covenant of this church.
YOU DO NOW, in the presence of God, and before his holy angels, and this assembly, sol- emnly profess to give up yourself, to GOD THE FATHER, as your chief good, -to THE SON OF GOD, as your Mediator, Head and Lord, rely- ing upon Him as the Prophet, Priest and King of your salvation,-to THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, as your Sanctifier, Guide and Comforter, to be a temple for Him to dwell in .- You pro- fess to give up yourself to this ONE GOD, who is the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, in an EVERLASTING COVENANT, TO LOVE, OBEY AND SERVE HIM FOREVER.
8
You also promise to walk with this Church of Christ, in a due submission to, and attend- ance upon, all the orders and ordinances of the Gospel; and that, by the help of the Spirit, you will adorn this your profession, by a holy, blameless, fruitful life and conversation.
This you do promise?
We also do, by the help of the same Spirit, promise you, that we will carry it towards you, as towards those brought up with us in the fel- lowship of the saints. We will watch over you, not for your halting, but for your edifica- tion. We will counsel, reprove, comfort, and exhort you, as your circumstances, and our ac- quaintance therewith, shall require.
This sacred covenant has been deliberately entered into, and its high obligations voluntarily assumed, by every member of this church. Those obligations are now, and will be .until death, upon every one who has assumed them; for he that "openeth his mouth unto the LORD, cannot go back." See Judg. xi, 35. Luke ix, 62. Heb. x, 38, 39. 2 Pet. ii, 20, 21. This holy covenant has been renewed by every member of this church, every time he has partaken of the Lord's Supper; for every par- ticipation of that ordinance, is a renewed ratification of the covenant between the professed believer and Christ, of which the Savior has declared that sacrament to be a seal, Luke xxii, 20; and a renewal of the ratification of a covenant, of course, implies a renewal of the covenant itself.
To assist the members of this church, in keeping in mind their covenant engagements, the following hints were, in conformity with a vote of the brethren, prepared in 1826, by the then pastor, Rev. B. B. Wisner, to be printed with the covenant.
4
9
1. Give a diligent and devout attention to the Covenant, whenever it is publicly proposed to candidates for admis- sion to the church, recollecting as each article is repeated, that you have solemnly entered into that engagement.
2. Attend regularly, except when necessarily prevented, upon the holy communion. Examine yourself carefully, in your private preparation for this service, in relation to each article of the Covenant, humbly confessing to God the deficiencies you discover, and supplicating forgiveness through the blood of Christ; and then, in your closet, sol- emnly renew your engagements with God as expressed in the Covenant, earnestly praying for grace to keep it more faithfully in future. Let a part of the evening preceding each administration of the Lord's Supper, if possible, be occupied in this manner. And when you come to the communion, recollect, among other things, that you are renewing the ratification of your covenant with God and with your brethren.
3. Regard the holy Scriptures, in your daily reading of them as "the book of the covenant" which you have made with the Most High-exhibiting the duties, to God and man, which you have engaged to perform, and the bless- ings you may expect to receive from God, if you are faith- ful to your engagements. See Exod. xxiv, 7.
4. Often reflect, and strive to have it deeply impressed on your mind, that you have taken God, angels and men, to witness that you have "given yourself up to Jehovah in an everlasting covenant, to love, obey and serve him for- ever;" that God, and angels, and men, are observing how you fulfil these engagements; that religion will be hon- ored or dishonored, and the salvation of those around you, yet in impenitence, promoted or hindered, by your faith- fulness or unfaithfulness to your vows; and that the Cove- nant you have taken, and so often virtually renewed, will be one of the tests to be applied to your character in the day of judgment.
5. Endeavor, as far as paramount duties will permit, to cultivate a Christian acquaintance with your brethren. And when in their company, converse frequently upon the things pertaining to the kingdom of God; and particularly of your duties and obligations as the covenant people of God. Sce Mal. iii, 16, Heb. x, 24. and iii, 13. "This
.
10
practice," says one, "would be of eminent service to help the memory, in regard to our covenant obligations, as also to quicken unto obedience. Thus, for instance, when a brother is observed to be going into temptation, or in pres- ent danger of falling into some transgression, it is not im- probable that these words, spoken in a suitable manner, in his hearing, REMEMBER YOUR COVENANT, would prevent his fall; or, if he has already fallen, it may be those words would be the means of recovering him out of the snare of the devil, and of bringing him unto unfeigned repentance."
6. While you expect justification and all the blessings of salvation, solely on account of the righteousness of Christ, and trust in Him alone for grace to fulfil your cov- enant engagements, endeavor habitually and practically to remember that his obedience unto death has not released believers from their obligations to personal holiness; that it has not diminished, but greatly increased those obliga- tions. See Isa. Ixiv, 6. Rom. iii, 20. Phil. iii, 8, 9. Rom. vi. 2 Cor. v, 14, 15.
7. In your daily secret prayers, entreat your covenant- keeping God to fulfil to you that gracious promise recorded in Jer. xxxi, 33, putting his law, the rule of the Covenant, in your inward parts, and writing it in your hearts,-"that He would make it ready and familiar to you, at hand when you have occasion to use it, as that which is written in the heart; that he would work in you a strong disposition to obedience, and an exact conformity of thought and affec- tion to the rules of the divine law, as that of the copy to the original."
