Inspire the pastor's tongue, Let him be blest who hears ; While here Thy name be sung, Through long succeeding years, Parent and child, Thy chosen race, In knowledge grow and Christian grace.


Good will from God to man ; Peace with Thy people be ; Till mortal flesh be clothed With immortality, And risen saints, with heaven's host. Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

The hymn concluded, Rev. Slater C. Hepburn, of Hamp- tonburgh, led in prayer, and the benediction was pronounced.


Thus ended, at a late hour, a most interesting service, com- memorative of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the church. It is placed upon record as a monument inscribed TO THE PRAISE OF JEHOVAH.

FORMS USED ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS.


FORM USED IN THE BAPTISM OF CHILDREN.


" We bring them, Lord, with fervent prayer, And yield them up to Thee;


Joyful that we ourselves are Thine, Thine let our offspring be."


[Prayer.]


ADDRESS.


Christian parents, you have brought these your children, whom God has graciously given to you, that you may dedi- cate them to the Lord, as it is your privilege to do and their privilege that you should do for them.


In this act you do solemnly renew your covenant made with God upon your admission to the full privileges of His Church, and claim the benefits of that covenant for your off- spring.


You promise for yourselves, in humble reliance on divine grace, that you will study to lead Christian lives and to ob- serve all the ordinances that God has instituted for His pco- ple ; and for these your children, that, should their lives be spared, you will bring them up in the nurture and admoni- tion of the Lord. You promise to teach them to read God's Word, to instruct them in the doctrines and precepts of the Gospel, to pray for and with them, and to do all that becometh you as believing parents to secure their regeneration and sanc- tification, their preparation for God's service on earth, and for the enjoyment of eternal blessedness and glory. Or, should God in His providence early take them to Himself, you prom- ise devoutly to acknowledge His superior claim, and to in-


154


GOODWILL CHURCH.


voke the aid of the Great Comforter, that He may enable you to exercise a humble resignation to His all-wise will, and to testify the sincerity and entireness of this your dedication in the spirit of the ancient patriarch, when, under bereavement, he said, "The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord."


Do you thus covenant and promise ?


The vows of God are upon you.


[Baptism.]


BENEDICTION.


Let the Angel who redeemeth us from all evil-even the Great Shepherd of Israel-bless the children and write upon them His new name, and give them to eat of the tree of life which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Amen.


[ The following may appropriately be chanted here:]


And Jesus said, Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me ; For of such is the kingdom of heaven.


He shall feed His flock like a shepherd.


He shall gather the lambs with His arm and carry them in His bosom.


Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, And to the Holy Ghost ; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end. Amen.


FORM USED IN THE PUBLIC RECEPTION OF MEMBERS INTO THE CHURCH.


The Session of this church have examined in respect to their repentance of sin, their faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and their hope of eternal life, and have accepted to be received into His visible Church, and to a full participation in Chris- tian ordinances and privileges, on the public profession of their faith, the following persons [A. B.]. They will now present themselves before this congregation, to enter into covenant with the Lord and with His people.


[Prayer.]


155


GOODWILL, CHURCH.


AADDRESS.


You are here present to subscribe yourselves openly to be the Lord's, and to make a public consecration of all that you have and are, irrevocably to His service.


" Ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched. and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words ; which voice they that heard entreated that the word should not be spoken unto them any more ; but ye are come unto Mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the first-born, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus the Mediator of the New Covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speak- eth better things than that of Abel."


You will therefore make solemn profession of your faith.


CONFESSION OF FAITH.


I. You believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God, given by His inspiration ; and that they are the only infallible rule of faith and practice.


II. You believe that there is but one living and true God, existing in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost ; that this God is a spirit infinite, eternal and unchange- ble in all His perfections and purpose ; and that He is the Maker, Upholder, and Righteous Governor of the world.


III. You believe that our first parents were created in the image of God ; that they fell from that state of perfection by sinning against Him ; that in consequence of their fall, all their posterity are by nature destitute of holiness and justly liable to eternal death.


IV. You believe that God in infinite mercy has provided a plan of redemption through the death of Jesus Christ, Ilis Son; that salvation is freely offered in the Gospel ; that those who repent of sin and believe in Jesus Christ shall not perish,


156


GOODWILL CHURCH.


but have everlasting life ; and that those who reject the Gos- pel will perish through their own impenitence and unbelief.


V. You believe that without a change of heart no sinner can be saved ; that this change is effected by the power of the Holy Ghost, according to the sovereign purpose of God, in a manner perfectly consistent with the freedom and agency of the creature; and that believers are sanctified by the Holy Ghost and kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.


VI. You believe that all men are under obligation to obey the whole Law of God, and that a life of new and holy obe- dience is the only proper evidence of a saving change of heart.


VII. You believe that Jesus Christ has established a Church on earth ; that credible evidence of a change of heart is an indispensable requisite for admission to its privileges ; that Baptism and the Lord's Supper are ordinances of per- petual obligation in it; and that the rite of Baptism is to be administered to believers and their infant children.


VIII. Finally, you believe in the Resurrection of the Dead, in the General Judgment, and in a Future State of Rewards and Punishments, as set forth in the Holy Scriptures.


To this summary of Christian Doctrine do you cordially assent ?


[If there are any who have not previously been baptized :] For- asmuch as our blessed Lord hath instituted the ordinance of baptism as the sign and seal of the covenant into which you enter with Him, as many of you as have not been baptized into Christ will now receive this rite.


[Baptism.]


[To those who have been baptized :] You who have been dedicated to God in infancy by baptism, and by heritage have enjoyed a home and training within the inclosures of that cove- nant which embraces also the children of believers in its ample provisions, do now solemly confirm that act of dedication and make it yours-taking your parents' God to be your God, and assuming in your own name the responsibilities involved in their consecration of you to His service and glory. [Assent.]


157


GOODWILL CHURCH.


Having thus professed your faith in Christ and entered into covenant with Him, you will now enter into covenant with this church. You promise to study the doctrines of its faith, with sincere desire to ascertain their truth, and as you understand so to believe and practice; you promise to yield to its instructions and discipline with meekness and sub- mission ; you promise to walk with its members in peace and love, to contribute according to your ability for its support, to be present, as far as circumstances permit, at its seasons of worship and at the ministration of its ordinances, to comply with its rules of order, and to strive for its edification and purity by prayer, and labor, and such other means as God shall give you to be employed for His service and kingdom. [Assent.]


[Here the members of the church rise and stand while the pas- tor reads the following :]


We, then, as a Christian Church, welcome you to a full membership with us in the blessings of the Gospel. We pro- mise to treat you with sincere affection-to watch over you with kindness and fidelity-to minister, as far as in us lieth, to your happiness and comfort-and to pray that here you may find a true communion of saints, that will assist in preparing you for the holier and more perfect fellowship of the sanctuary above. Amen.


[ The members of the church resume their seats, and the pastor continues in these or like words : ] And now, beloved in the Lord. let it be impressed upon your minds that you have entered into solemn relations which you can never renounce. Wher- ever you go, these vows will be upon you. They will follow you to the bar of God, and, in whatever world you may be fixed, will abide with you to eternity.


You can never be again as you have been. You have voluntarily, publicly, and unalterably given yourselves up to be the servants of God. Hereafter the eyes of the world will be upon you, and as you conduct yourselves, so will religion be honored or disgraced.


If you walk worthy of your profession, you will be a credit


158


GOODWILL CHURCH.


and a comfort to us ; but if it be otherwise, it will be an occa- sion of grief and reproach. But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, though we thus speak. We charge you, forget not this day. Be faithful unto death, for if found faith- ful, it will not be long before you are admitted into that world where, no longer through the medium of ordinances, but with open face, you will behold the glory of the Lord, and, changed into the same image, from glory to glory, will dwell forever in His presence.


" The Lord bless thee, and keep thee.


" The Lord make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee.


" The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."


"Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen."


[ The following or some similar selection may here appropriately be chanted : ]


" There is joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons that need no repentance."


" Glory be to the Father," etc.


FORM USED IN THE RECEPTION OF MEMBERS BY LETTER.


[ To such members rising in their pews : ]


Believing that the true Church of God is one in all places, bound in sacred ties by that same spirit which is in us all and through us all, we welcome you on the authority of your letters as brothers and sisters in the Lord, and cordially extend to you the affection due to spiritual kindred. Though hitherto unknown, we greet you as well known, and rejoice in the hope


159


GOODWILL CHURCH.


of being comforted, together with you, by the mutual faith of both you and us. May the God of all grace make our union perfect as members of one body in Christ, and render us joy- ful coworkers in His kingdom. Amen.


SELF-EXAMINATION.


THE FOLLOWING MAY PROFITABLY BE USED TO AID IN SELF- EXAMINATION BEFORE PARTICIPATING IN THE LORD'S SUPPER.


Forasmuch as it is enjoined upon all who would partake worthily of the Lord's Supper, "that they examine them- selves of their knowledge to discern the Lord's body, of their faith to feed upon Him, of their repentance, love, and new obedience," let each and all join with one accord in testing themselves of their fitness to approach the table by honestly inquiring :


1. Am I sincerely endeavoring to act the part of a true disciple by the daily exercise of faith and love and prayer, by the study of God's Word, and by conscientious obedience to the divine precepts ?


2. Is there any sin I have knowingly committed which remains unrepented of, or any evil habit in which | ant indulging which may be grieving the Holy Spirit and hindering communion with Christ?


3. Do I rejoice in God as one reconciled to Him through the atonement set forth in this feast ?


4. Have I the evidence of the divine forgiveness in the peace of a conscience purified from dead works by the blood of Jesus, and in earnest desire to lead a life of perfect holiness unto the Lord?


5. Can I adore that awful justice which demanded nothing less than the blood of the Son of God as the condition of pardon ; and does it inspire within me an abhorrence of sin as being the cause of Christ's crucifixion ?


6. Am I living in charity towards all men, especially


160


GOODWILL CHURCH.


towards members of this church? Is there any whom I have offended and not tried to reconcile ; or any one against whom I have aught and toward whom I am cherishing a malevolent, unforgiving temper ?


7. Have I any heart-stirring sense of the magnitude of God's love in sending His Son to die that I might live, and does a lively gratitude prompt me to devote myself to His service without reserve, as one purchased with His blood- willing to be crucified with Him, that I may at last reign with Him?


"Let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread and drink of that cup." " For if we would judge our- selves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be con- demned with the world."


Q


ROLL OF CHURCH MEMBERSHIP.
