Life and death, the blessing and the curse, are set before you. If Thomas Paine. the author of "The Age of Reason," be the true prophet, then follow him: or if the Illuminati, who are darkening the world by their system, be the true prophets, then follow them; but if Christ, the Son of God, who is the brightness of the Father's Glory and the express image of his person, and who justly assumes the title "The Light of the World," be the true Prophet. then follow him.
Such features of a divine origin do the holy scriptures carry in the glorious doctrines which they teach; in the wise and salutary conduct which they prescribe: in their predictions and correspond- ing events, and in their rise and progress in the world that I do only apply to those among whom the light of the gospel shines. the words of the Baptist with which I close: "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him."
AMEN.
THIE CHARGE
BY THE REV. DR. HAVEN OF PORTSMOUTH, N. II.
Resting satisfied in the ample testimonials of the ministerial qualifications of the person on whom we now impose our hands. and being designated by this venerable council to ordain and set him
123
HISTORY OF CHURCH AND PARISII.
apart to the work of the gospel ministry by charging him before God and holy angels, we do accordingly, in the name of the council convened. and by authority derived from this glorious head of the Church, ordain you. Mr. Jacob Abbot, a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ, a Bishop. a presbyter. We now commit to you the charge and oversight of this particular flock. You are hereby in- vested with the same character and ministerial authority with our- selves, charging you to take this sacred and very important office upon you, not of constraint, but willingly: not for filthy Incre, but of a ready mind.
Take heed to this ministry you are now receiving in the Lord, to fulfill it.
Preach the word: be instant, in season and out of season: reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine: not handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth, commending yourself to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
Preach Jesus Christ and him crucified, and risen again for our justification: warning every man and instructing every man in all wisdom, that you may present every man perfect before God in Christ.
Preach the plain gospel of Jesus, uncorrupted by vain philosophy and the metaphysical sophistry of the present age. Cast not a mist before the eyes of your hearers by introducing metaphysical distinctions instead of plain scripture reasoning: nor ever plunge them into the awful abyss of fatalism by pretending to be wise above what is written. Imitate your great master and his apostles. ad- ducing plain facts rather than the deceiving words and wisdom of this world.
Preach Christ, the wisdom of God, and the power of God to every man who believeth. Let your preaching be plain, practical. and fervent. Thus be wise to win souls.
Administer the seals of the New Testament,-Baptism and the Lord's supper,-to all proper subjects, like a wise and faithful steward over the house of God, distinguishing between the holy and profane.
As much as in you lies, in this enfeebled age of church authority, dispense the primitive discipline which Christ has appointed in all his churches, doing nothing by partiality that the ministry be not blamed. And bless the congregation in the name of the Lord.
124
HISTORY OF HAMPTON FALLS.
The same things we now commit to you, commit thou to others, as providence shall call you; but lay hands suddenly on no man.
Beloved brother, take heed to thyself. Be an example to the flock in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Live the gospel you preach, that you may be able to say to your dear flock, "Be ye followers of me as I am of Christ."
Take heed to the flock: feed the sheep; feed the lambs.
Stir up the gift that is in thee. Give thyself to reading, medita- tion, and prayer. Meditate on these things: give thyself wholly to them, that thy profiting may appear to all men. Thus approve thyself a workman who needeth not to be ashamed; rightly dividing the word of life, and give to every one his portion in due season.
In fine, dear sir, we charge you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and before holy angels, make full proof of thy ministry; keep thyself pure from the blood of precious souls. Oh, that a deep sense of the worth of souls, the solemn account you will shortly have to give up to your great Lord, may have an abiding and power- ful influence on all your ministry.
Do you ask with serious concern, Who is sufficient for these things? Hear, then, the language of the great Shepherd and Bishop of souls directed to you, to every faithful minister, "Lo! I am with you always." "My grace is sufficient for you; my strength is made perfeet in your weakness."
Rest on his faithful promise, endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Thus be faithful to God, to your own soul, and to the souls of your people-then, all hail the day of your last account. The chief Shepherd shall appear and place a crown of glory, a crown of life eternal on thy head.
AMEN.
THE RIGHT HAND OF FELLOWSHIP
BY THE REV. JESSE APPLETON OF HAMPTON, N. H.
If there be anything remaining in the human heart which is refined, noble, or dignified, it is sure to find support and encour- agement in the religion of Jesus. Every passion or desire which can possibly be improved to a good purpose meets with objects in this religion on which it may operate to advantage.
Is there in the human breast a thirst for being, a desire for un- limited existence? The gospel speaks of life and immortality. Do
.
125
HISTORY OF CHURCH AND PARISH.
men feel a desire for knowledge and a freedom from those many doubts and difficulties which embarrass all their present specula- tions? The gospel informs us that after death the good man shall enjoy the best possible advantages for extending his knowledge; that though he now sees through a glass darkly, he shall then see face to face. Are the social feelings implanted in the human heart? Is there an inclination in man to associate with his fellows; to com- municate his thoughts and desires to others and receive the like communications from them? The Christian religion promises to believers the enjoyment of the best society. "They shall sit down with Abraham. Isaac, and Jacob." They shall be familiarly con- versant with a select company, chosen from all nations and kindreds and tongues. Do we feel, within us, a desire of fame, honor, and distinction? The gospel speaks of honor, glory, and immortality, of our sitting on thrones and being raised to an equality with angels. Is there, in man, a kind of attraction among congenial souls? An inclination to form particular attachments: to enter into strong and lasting friendships? This inclination is countenanced and encouraged, both by the general tendency of the Christian religion and by the particular example of its divine Author.
Proceeding from the love of God, we might naturally expect that Christianity should bear the marks of its divine origin, and tend to promote peace on earth and good will toward men. Accordingly, we find that no exhortations more frequently occur than those which would persuade men to benevolence, and a tender and affectionate regard for each other.
But the example of Christ is still more to our purpose. He se- lected a certain number of companions, whom he honored by the appellation of friends. They were to be partakers of his joy or sorrow; his honor or reproach. They continued with him in his temptations; they followed him in the regeneration, and both before and after his ascension were instrumental of carrying on that new birth or renovated state of things, in the moral world, which he had originated.
Among these there was one who had a particular share in his master's affections. He was called the disciple whom Jesus loved. He leaned on Jesus' bosom and enjoyed the most honorable famil- iarity with him. Our Lord had other particular attachments: he loved Lazarus and wept at his tomb.
From these examples of Jesus Christ, it appears that he not only 9
126
HISTORY OF HAMPTON FALLS.
enjoined, in his religion, the most general and extensive benev- olence, but did himself indulge the social feelings. He formed par- ticular attachments, he entered into strong and lasting friendships.
As a minister of his religion, and strongly influenced by those social feelings which Jesus Christ himself has seen fit to patronize, I cheerfully perform the office assigned me by this ecclesiastical council.
Unto you, my dear brother, I now give this Right Hand of Fel- lowship. By this we acknowledge your abilities. your literary and moral acquirement, and your regular introduction into the Christian ministry.
We believe that, under the influences of Christian principles you will take heed to yourself and to the flock of God, over which the Holy Ghost has made you an overseer: that you will count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Jesus Christ your Lord.
We rejoice that you have now taken part with us in this ministry, and we embrace you as our brother and companion in tribulation and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ.
We declare our readiness to communicate with you in all the offices of Christian fellowship. Nothing. on our part, shall be wanting to your personal happiness or ministerial success. We will rejoice in your joy: we will weep at your sorrow, and God forbid that we should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you.
And while in the sincerity of our souls we tender you these our services, we have received your hand as an undoubted pledge of your willingness to reciprocate them.
And now, my brother, may the Lord bless you and make you a faithful laborer in the vineyard of Christ. May he give you a long, a peaceful and a prosperous ministry, and having turned many to righteousness, may you hereafter shine as the brightness of the firmament and as a star forever and ever.
Fathers and Brethren of this Church and Society: We congratu- late you on the prospect which this day opens upon you. Since the death of your late venerable minister. you have experienced your- selves and manifested to others, "how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity."
All the friends of good order and religion have witnessed with abundant satisfaction. the regularity, caution, and unanimity that have uniformly characterized your proceedings. They have re-

joiced at beholding your order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
You. this day, behold the happy issue of all your endeavors for resettling the gospel ministry. You behold the man in whom your wishes and esteem have centered. Behold now, he is, according to your wish, in God's stead. He also is formed out of the clay. His terror shall not make you afraid, neither shall his hand lie heavy upon you. Let him continue to share largely in your esteem and affections. Manifest your attachment to him, but especially to that Gospel, the principles of which he will unfold, explain, and inculcate. Thus will you give peace to his days and success to his ministry. Thus you will gratify the best desires of his heart, which, we believe, are directed to your everlasting interest. For what is his hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
AMEN.
