 Boston, Jan. 19, 1866. 
 To the Churc/t, /Ju*tvn, vit/i t/ttir Pastor, 
 
 Rev. the Union Church, Essex Street, 
 
 Anton, semis greeting: — 
 
 Dear Christian Brethren, — You are aware that there 
 seems to be a growing desire and expectation among us with 
 regard to an increase of attention to the subject of personal sal- 
 vation by Christ, and that Christians are consulting with one 
 another as to the best ways of promoting it. 
 
 In former years, our Churches, with their Pastors, were 
 accustomed to confer and act together with regard to the in- 
 terests of religion in Boston. A united action on this subject 
 serves to give strength to such measures as may be deemed 
 desirable. 
 
 And whereas it is consonant with our Congregational usage 
 that some one Church should take the first step when the 
 Churches are invited to council together, and it having been 
 suggested by some who are interested in this movement, that 
 the Church whose Pastor has had the longest term of pastoral 
 service in one Church could, with common assent, properly 
 issue the Letter Missive for this purpose : — 
 
 We do, therefore, as a sister Church, affectionately invite 
 you to be present, by your Pastor and three Delegates, at an 
 Ecclesiastical Council, in the Lecture-room of this Church, on 
 Wednesday Afternoon, January the Thirty-first, in- 
 stant, at a quarter past three o'clock, to devise and recommend 
 such practical measures as the Council may judge best adapted 
 to extend a knowledge of salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ 
 among the population of this city, and to impress the claims of 
 the Gospel upon their consciences and hearts. 
 
 With cordial affection, your brethren in Christ, 
 In behalf of the Union Church, 
 
 N. ADAMS, Pastor. 
 Daniel W. Job, Clerk (pro tern.), [3]

RESULT. 
 
 Pursuant to letters missive of which the fore- 
 going was the form, the Congregational Churches 
 of Boston met in Council, by their Pastors and 
 specified number of Delegates, at the appointed 
 time and place, for the purpose of considering 
 the state of religion, and devising and recom- 
 mending practical measures for the furtherance 
 of the Gospel in this city ; and having held several 
 sessions of a deeply devotional as well as a delibe- 
 rative character, and having listened to important 
 reports of committees appointed to set forth the 
 defects in our religious condition, their causes 
 and their remedies, — and having heard these 
 subjects freely remarked upon and discussed, — 
 and having humbly and earnestly sought the 
 Divine guidance, — came to the following 
 
 RESULT. 
 
 For the feelings among Christians which led 
 to the call of this Council, — for our assembling, 
 
 [6] 
 
b RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 — for the spiritual interest and power of our 
 sessions, increasing to their close, — and for the 
 influence of these things upon the Churches, 
 manifest and already extensive, — we are pro- 
 foundly grateful to the Head of the Church. 
 
 We feel that in these things some of the true 
 purposes of this Council have been already ac- 
 complished. 
 
 What further measures for the promotion of 
 a deeper and more extensive religious interest 
 among us may be expedient, is an important but 
 difficult question. Different measures are suited 
 to different times, and to Churches and neighbor- 
 hoods of different character and condition ; and 
 therefore we are compelled to pass by many 
 measures which are not of general applicability, 
 and do not meet with universal approval. 
 
 We call the attention of the Churches to the 
 imperative duty of entering upon new and more 
 earnest courses of action. We are beset on the 
 one side by rationalism and infidelity, on the 
 other side by superstition, on every side by 
 worldliness, ungodliness and vice. Multitudes 
 around us, including many united to us by the 
 strongest ties, are without any interest in the

 Saviour, and arc, therefore, in the way to ever- 
 lasting ruin. At the same fun* 4 , wordliness has 
 crept into our Churches, the love of many has 
 grown cold, and a wicked and fatal indifference 
 * and inactivity has paralyzed their energies. 
 
 We do, therefore, by their love of Cirist, by 
 their compassion for the perishing, by their hope 
 of salvation, affectionately and solemnly adjure 
 our Churches to employ such prompt, new and 
 decided measures for the advance of the king- 
 dom of Christ in and around them, as the Spirit 
 of Christ which is in each shall suggest ; and we 
 do affectionately and solemnly adjure each of 
 our Church members to enter at once upon a 
 deeper and more thorough humiliation and re- 
 pentance before God, a more entire separation 
 of heart and life from the world, and a more 
 faithful and earnest personal activity in the work 
 of saving souls. 
 
 We feel that our first duty is, to point out 
 affectionately but very plainly, some of the causes 
 of this coldness, indifference and inactivity which 
 we all so deeply deplore. 
 
 We all acknowledge the general truth, that if 
 there is ever to be a revival in a Church, it must

 commence in the hearts of its members. TVe can- 
 not hope for God's blessing upon the meetings 
 and the prayers of nominal Christians who are 
 daily sinning against their Maker, and whose 
 daily lives are devoted to the service of mammon ; 
 such prayers are empty forms, without reverence, 
 or love, or faith. 
 
 The sins of individual Christians are the cause 
 of this condition of the Churches of Christ. 
 While we rejoice to know and to acknowledge 
 the unaffected piety, the simple faith and holy 
 lives of so many Christians, we are also aware 
 that the most earnest and the most devoted are 
 those who are most alarmed at the general con- 
 dition of the Churches. 
 
 There are many of the nominal members of 
 the Churches of Christ whose daily lives are at 
 war with the plain commands of the Gospel. 
 Do they love God supremely? Are their affec- 
 tions set upon heavenly things? They do not 
 endeavor to renounce the sinful customs and 
 vanities of this world ; but they allow the solemn 
 realities of religion to become secondary to the 
 duties and pleasures of the passing hour. Par- 
 ents neglect family worship and faithful religious 
 instruction in their families ; they disregard the 
 
MBULT OP OOUKGIL. 9 
 
 eternal welfare and the salvation of the immortal 
 souls of their Children, and make their duties to 
 God subordinate to the friendships, the claims, the 
 pleasures and the frivolities of social life. Trifling 
 causes, which do not keep the lovers of pleasure 
 from theatres and balls and parties, are sufficient 
 to prevent nominal Christians from attending 
 the services of God's sanctuary and the weekly 
 meetings for prayer. 
 
 Prominent among the evils with regard to 
 which there can be no trifling and no compromise, 
 are two. We refer to the neglect of daily secret 
 prayer and of the daily study of God's Word. 
 
 We desire to express our settled conviction, 
 that daily secret prayer (not a formal lip service, 
 but a real and consecrated communion with our 
 Heavenly Father,) is as essential to a true Chris- 
 tian life as vital air is to the life of the body ; 
 and that a daily study of the Bible, with prayer 
 for God's blessing upon the study of His own 
 Word, is indispensable to growth in grace, and, 
 indeed, to any really religious life. We have 
 reason to believe that both of these vital points 
 are daily neglected, to the endangering of many 
 souls. 
 
 l* 
 
10 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 In connection with these duties we wish to 
 bring forward into prominent view one great 
 cause of the want of progress in the Church of 
 Christ on earth. This is, that with but com- 
 paratively few exceptions, our members are not 
 working for the cause of Christ and His king- 
 dom. 
 
 What different results we might expect if 
 every Christian were earnestly at work for the 
 saving of souls ! We believe that this is a plain 
 Christian duty which cannot be neglected or 
 evaded, that it is essential to a true Christian life, 
 and that the only truly happy Christians are 
 always working Christians. 
 
 KECOMMENDATIONS. 
 
 RENEWAL OF COVENANT. 
 
 In view of the painful declension in the 
 Churches, and of the solemn responsibilities of 
 this hour, when all around us we can hear of the 
 coming power and glory of God, we do solemnly 
 and earnestly recommend to each one of you, 
 our Christian brethren and sisters, that you study 
 
RESULT OP COUNCIL. 11 
 
 carefully, and with earned prayer, your covenant 
 with God, Your conscience will instruct you. 
 ifl to your fidelity to the vows which you once 
 took upon yourself in the presence of God and of 
 His holy angels. If you feel that you have 
 broken your covenant and neglected your duties, 
 you must return, as a penitent sinner, to the one 
 strait and narrow way. You must humble your- 
 self before your Maker, and repent, and seek 
 forgiveness and mercy through the atoning sacri- 
 fice of Christ, until you receive that free pardon 
 which He gives to all who in sincerity and hu- 
 mility come to Him ; and then you will be enabled 
 by a sincere and heartfelt reconsecration of 
 yourself to Christ, to become a living member 
 of the Church to which you now are an occasion 
 of grief and reproach. We know that this re- 
 consecration is possible to every individual Chris- 
 tian, not as an empty form, nor by any public 
 profession only, but after sincere self-humiliation, 
 and a new pardon, and a glad reconciliation with 
 God. 
 
 In order that this individual duty of humiliation 
 and repentance, and of a new consecration to the 
 service and glory of God may, in the most solemn 
 
12 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 manner, be brought home to the heart and con- 
 science of every Christian, we recommend that 
 all our Churches should simultaneously, on the 
 third Sabbath of March, solemnly renew their 
 covenant with God and with each other, and that 
 this day should be devoted by every Christian 
 to conscientious and searching self-examination, 
 and to sincere humiliation before God. In order 
 that this reconsecration may be general and 
 effectual, we suggest that early notice should be 
 given so far as possible, to every member of the 
 Churches, and that one or more appropriate 
 sermons be preached in each Church on or before 
 the appointed day. 
 
 UNION COMMUNION. 
 
 We recommend also that in the evening of this 
 day there should be united communion services 
 in the Park-street Church, designed solely for 
 the members of the Churches represented in this 
 Council, in which they may join in token of their 
 brotherly love, and union in Christ, as well as to 
 seek the Divine blessing upon their solemn vows 
 of reconsecration to the service and glory of 
 God.

 ADDRESSES TO CIIUUCII MEMBERS. 
 
 In order that the dangers and temptations to 
 
 which Christians are exposed, the causes of cold- 
 ness in our Churches, and the means through 
 which we hope for a renewal of the work of the 
 Holy Spirit among us, may be plainly set before 
 the members of our Churches, we recommend 
 that addresses by the Pastors be prepared and 
 printed for distribution in every Church, upon the 
 following subjects : 
 
 1. The Duty of a More Strict Observance of the 
 Sabbath, by Rev. Dr. Blagden. 
 
 2. The Power and Office of the Holy Spirit, by 
 Rev. Dr. Adams.

 Poor and those who habitually neglect the Services of 
 the Sabbath, by Rev. Dr. Dexter. 
 
 7. The Christian's Duty to work for the Saving of 
 Souls, by Rev. Mr. Bingham. 
 
 8. Revivals of Religion, by Rev. Mr. Todd. 
 
14 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 9. The Duty of Daily Secret Prayer and Daily 
 Study of the Bible, by Rev. Mr. Manning. 
 
 10. The Duty of Christians to unite with some 
 Church, and the Duty of Church Members to unite 
 with the Church where they statedly worship, by Rev. 
 Mr. Fay. 
 
 11. The Divine Sovereignty in its Relation to Hu- 
 man Salvation, by Rev. Mr. Baker. 
 
 OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH. 
 
 We are convinced that the services of the 
 Lord's Day ought to be considered supreme above 
 all other times and means of grace. The mem- 
 bers of our Churches should keep God's Sabbaths 
 holy, and reverence His sanctuary by attending 
 on both the services usually held. We know 
 that these great duties are too much neglected. 
 
 PREACHING. 
 
 We believe that it is desirable that the Pastors 
 should select subjects for their sermons such as 
 the present hour seems to demand : and we 
 recommend great plainness and distinctness in. 
 preaching upon those grand and solemn doctrines 
 of the Bible : Man's total alienation from God ; 
 the Divine justice in the eternal punishment of 
 
/ 
 
 RSSULT OF corNCiL. 15 
 
 the wicked; the new birth; salvation through 
 faith in Christ 
 
 Those primal truths of God's Word, and Christ's 
 stern and awful warnings against a nominal and 
 merely formal worship of God should be preached 
 afresh without any compromises with pride, 
 heresy or worldliness ; and God's ministers should 
 be sustained and supported by Christians in this 
 high duty. 
 
 UNION AMONG CHURCHES. 
 
 We recommend that every means should be 
 taken to bring about a more fraternal union and 
 practical sympathy and co-operation between all 
 our Churches in the city. A more familiar 
 intercourse and more frequent associations will 
 bring about these desirable results. Mutual re- 
 gard and respect and acquaintance should be 
 cultivated, in every manner, and as some of the 
 means to insure these objects, we recommend: 
 combined or union prayer meetings ; informal 
 delegations of members from one Church to 
 another at the usual social meetings ; united pub- 
 lic services as occasion may offer ; occasional 
 unions in the communion services ; and more 
 frequent exchanges among the Pastors. 
 
16 RESULT OP COUNCIL. 
 
 PRAYER FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT. 
 
 We need a higher faith in the prevailing power 
 of prayer. If the five thousand members of our 
 Churches were awakened to the solemn respon- 
 sibilities of the present moment, and were all 
 united in fervent daily prayers for God's bless- 
 ing, we should not require councils, or need to 
 suggest reforms. 
 
 We therefore earnestly adjure all who love the 
 Lord Jesus Christ that they do daily, with deep 
 earnestness and trusting faith, strive earnestly 
 in prayer for the manifest presence and power 
 of the Holy Spirit in all our Churches. 
 
 EXTRA MEETINGS. 
 
 We are disposed to believe that much of the 
 force and efficiency of the Sabbath services is 
 lost because the hearers during the week are 
 given up to the world, and the solemn impres- 
 sions of the Sabbath are effaced. We therefore 
 recommend that -each Church should increase the 
 number of its social prayer meetings : and that 
 for the present these meetings should usually be 
 devoted to prayers for the Holy Spirit and for 
 
VBULT OF COUNCIL. 17 
 
 the conversion of the impenitent. Wc suggest 
 
 also that inoreased efforts should ho made l)y 
 
 Christians to induce the unconverted to attend 
 these meetings. 
 
 GENERAL VISITATION. 
 
 We recommend that in each Church compe- 
 tent and experienced Christians shall be ap- 
 pointed to visit the members, for the purpose of 
 conversing with them on the subject of personal 
 religion, for their mutual profit. In this way 
 the hearts of true Christians may be encouraged 
 and quickened, and the unfaithful may be won 
 back to duty and their first love. It would be 
 well for the visitors to go forth two and two, as 
 the Lord appointed, a few members of the 
 Church being assigned to each pair. Simultane- 
 ous neighborhood prayer meetings, or a special 
 Church meeting might profitably close the work. 
 
 SPECIAL AND PROTRACTED MEETINGS. 
 
 The subject of special meetings in the day- 
 time during the week, and of protracted meet- 
 ings, seems to depend so much upon the spiritual 
 state, and the situation in other respects, of our 
 
18 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 several Churches, that we think it best to make 
 this suggestion only, — that whenever any Church 
 shall appoint such meetings, it is the duty of all 
 sister Churches, so far as it may be convenient, 
 to co-operate sincerely, and assist them. 
 
 SABBATH SCHOOLS. 
 
 "We recommend a more general and faithful 
 attendance upon the Sabbath Schools, especially 
 on the part of adults. Every member of our 
 congregations, and especially every Christian, 
 for whom it is possible, should be connected with 
 some Sabbath School, as a teacher or a scholar. 
 The Sabbath School ought to be employed as a 
 means of drawing children and others into the 
 services of the sanctuary, and not as an inde- 
 pendent and superior instrumentality of grace. 
 We suggest also, that the Sabbath School should 
 be made less a means of merely interesting and 
 amusing the children, and more a means of in- 
 structing them and bringing them to Christ; 
 and that every Sabbath School teacher is bound 
 to use the most diligent and faithful efforts to 
 bring the children to a personal interest in the 
 Saviour. 
 
RESULT OP COUNCIL. 19 
 
 CITY MISSIONARY SOCIETY. 
 
 We recommend a more earnest attention on 
 the part of every Church to the wants and 
 claims of the City Missionary Society. The 
 number of missionaries needs to be increased ; 
 and the means of enabling them to minister tem- 
 poral relief, as it opens a direct road for the 
 Gospel to the hearts of the suffering, should be 
 liberally supplied. Every Church ought to have 
 missionaries of its own employed under the gen- 
 eral direction of this Society. 
 
 LAY PREACHERS. 
 
 If any Church can procure from among its 
 own members, or elsewhere, suitable men to 
 preach Christ in mission chapels, halls, or ves- 
 tries, as lay preachers under the supervision and 
 with the co-operation of the Pastor, we earnestly 
 recommend the employment of such assistance. 
 
 NEW CHURCHES, ETC. 
 
 In view of the dense and neglected population 
 in the north part of the city, it would be obvi- 
 ously unfaithful to the Master, should our 
 
20 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 Churches cease to maintain vigorously our faith 
 and polity in that part of the city ; while the 
 rapid growth of the city, in our judgment, re- 
 quires the immediate erection of a new meeting- 
 house and the consequent organization of a new 
 Church of our order at the extreme South End, 
 and also at East Boston. 
 
 DISTRICTING THE CITY. 
 
 We believe that the apportionment of the city 
 into districts, and the assignment of a district to 
 each Church for its religious care, is already in 
 progress. We recommend each church to accept 
 the field of labor which shall be offered it, and 
 enter with alacrity and vigor upon the work. 
 The religious condition of every family should 
 be known ; and not a child unconnected with 
 any Sabbath School should be left unsought ; 
 not a stranger in the city should be left to its 
 temptations and snares, uncaught by a Christian 
 hand ; and not an individual should be permitted 
 to pass through and out of life, within the 
 bounds of the district, without having distinctly 
 and repeatedly presented to him, the knowledge 
 and offers of Christ's salvation. 
 
RESULT OF COTOCIL, 21 
 
 Such a work will call lor much self-denying 
 Ubor on the part of the whole Church ; and we 
 do, in the most solemn manner, and l>v the most 
 sacred considerations, urge the Churches to come 
 up heartily to the work. Let every Christian 
 feel that there is something for him, or her, to 
 do. Let some work be assigned to each, accord- 
 ing to his or her several ability. Let every 
 Christian remember, that not only among the 
 poor and lost, but at home and by the way, in 
 business circles and among his friends, he is 
 under the strongest obligations to preach Christ, 
 with modesty, wisdom^ meekness and love, not 
 only by his works but with his lips. 
 
 ENCOURAGEMENT TO LABOR. 
 
 We call the attention of the Churches to the 
 fact that at the present time we have special en- 
 couragement to labor. There seems to be a 
 readiness in the minds of men to listen to the 
 Gospel. There seems to be a general expectation 
 of an unusual outpouring of the Spirit. All 
 around us showers of grace are falling. In all 
 of our Churches there is an element of faithful- 
 ness and prayer; in some of them there is an 
 
22 RESULT OF COUNCIL. 
 
 unusually tender and solemn state of feeling. 
 In our own sessions and their influence we 
 believe that we have seen indications that the 
 Lord is with us, and going before us. 
 
 Let us, then, Pastors and Churches, awake to 
 the responsibilities and privileges of the hour. 
 The time is short ; the reward is great ; and lo ! 
 Christ is with us alway.
