PREPARED BY ORDER OF THE GENERAL CONVENTION. BOSTON. PUBLISHED BY OTIS CLAPP, No. 23 School Street. 1 85 2 . I Entered, according to act of Congress, in the year 1636, By T. B. Hayward, in the Clerk’s Office of the Ihstrjet Court r. f Massachusetts FROM T II E DOCTRINE OF THE NEW JERUSALEM CONCERNING CHARITY. That the signs of charity consist of all the thmgs which belong to worship. All things of charity are referable to looking to the Lord, and shunning evils as sins, and doing the goods of use which belong to one’s calling. But all things, of worship are externals of the body, and externals of the mind. The externals of the body are made up of a6ts and words ; and the externals of the mind are the things done in will and thought, which cohere with the ex- ternals of the body. The externals of the body which belong to worship , are I. Going to church. II. Hearing sermons. III. Devoutly singing, and praying on the knees. IV. Taking the sacrament of the supper. At home, also. I. Morning and evening prayer, and prayer at meals. II. Conversing on charity and faith, on God, heaven, life eternal, and salvation. III. And in the case of priests, preaching, also, and pri- vate instruction. IV. And in the case of every man, communicating free and sincere instruction on religious matters. V. Reading the V^ord, and pious and instructive books. The externals of the mind which belong to worship , are I. Thinking and meditating on God, heaven, life eter- nal and salvation. II. Reflecting on the thoughts and intentions, as to whether they are evil or good, and, that the evil ones are from the devil, and the good from God. III. Rejecting all impious, obscene, and filthy conver- sation. IV. There are affections, as well as thoughts, which come to the sight and sense of man. These things are called the externals of the mind, from their cohering, and uniting themselves with, the externals of the body. -VfeSt5"l AIDS TO DEVOTION AND A PROFITABLE WAITING BEFORE THE LORD, IN HIS HOLY TEMPLE. “ Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness i. Remember the Time, the Place and the Presence, — the Sabbath, the Temple, the Lord. II. Be in your place in season, before' the minister enters the chancel, so as to be prepared at the opening of service, to engage in the worship yourself ; and not, by late coming, disturb the worship of others. III. When you take your place, it may aid you to a spirit of worship, to bow or kneel, and repeat silently from the heart, a short prayer, or one or more of the following sentences : 1. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord my strength and my Redeemer. 2. Unto Thee lift I up mine eyes, O Thou that dwellest in the heavens. 3. Teach me Thy way, O Lord : I will walk in thy truth : unite my heart to fear Thy name. 4. Show uS Thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us Thy sal- vation. IV. Have your place in the Liturgy ready, and observe the rubrics or directions. V. Unite in repeating the responses ; and in doing so, speak not loud, but distinctly, and neither too fast nor too slow, so that all can speak together. VI. Unite with all your heart in the prayers, and if you can do so, unite in the singing or chanting. VII. While listening to the Word and the Sermon, lift up your heart to the Lord for His Spirit to aid you to receive in- struction. Listen for yourself rather than for others. i/J J r* 4 - & M ^ 4A REMO i ^ '*' BQQft&TAGKS P£Ei^ ORDER OF WORSHIP. PART I. [The service may be commenced with reading one or more of the following passages from the Word.] The Lord is in his holy Temple ; let all the earth keep silence before him. — Hab. ii. 20. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. — Ps. c. 4. From the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto thy name, and a pure offering ; for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts. — Mai. i. 11. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer. — Ps. xix. 14. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me ; for I am meek and lowly in 6 ORDER OF WORSHIP. heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. — Matt. xi. 28-30. Seek ye Jehovah, while he may be found, Call ye upon him while he is near : Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts : And let him return to Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him ; And to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. • Isa. lv. 6, 7. [Here a selection from the Word may be sung.] PART II. [One or more of the following passages from the Word may be read, as introductory to prayer.] Take no thought, saying, What shall we eat ? or, What shall we drink ? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the king- dom of God, and his righteousness ; and all these things shall be added unto you. — Matt. vi. 31 -33. At that time, Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Fa- ther: for so it seemed good in thy sight! All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any one the Father, save the Son, and lie to whom-, soever the Son will reveal him. — Matt. xi. 25-27. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 7 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it : and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul ? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul ? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels ; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. — Matt. xvi. 24-27. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth, as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father who is in heaven : for where two or three are gathered to- gether in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him ? till seven times ? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. — Matt, xviii. 19 - 22. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith of God. For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass ; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any : that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your trespasses. — Mark xi. 22 - 26. For I acknowledge my transgressions ; and my sin is ever before me. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. — Ps. li. 3, 9. 8 ORDER OF WORSHIP. O Lord, open thou my lips ; and my mouth shall show forth thy praise. For them desirest not sacri- fice ; else would I give it; thou dclightest not in burnt-offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit : a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. — Ps. li. 15 - 17. But T say unto you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to them who hate you, bless them that curse you, and pray for them who despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek, offer also the other ; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also. Give to every one that asketh of thee ; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them like- wise. — Luke vi. 27 - 31. But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again ; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest; for he is kind unto the unthankful and the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. — Luke vi. 35, 36. And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find ; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth ; and he that seeketh findeth ; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone ? or if a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion ? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children ; how much more shall the Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him! — Luke xi. 9 — 13. Take heed to yourselves! If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him ; and if he repent, forgive ORDER OF WORSHIP. 9 him. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent ; thou shalt forgive him. — Luke xvii. 3, 4. Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself : God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift so much as the eyes unto heaven; but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner ! I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other : for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased ; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. — Luke xviii. 10 - 14. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him ; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life ; and the life was the light of men. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us ; and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. — John i. 1-4, 14. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. — John iii. 16, 17. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth : for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit ; and they that worship him must worship in spirit and in truth. — John iv. 23, 24. 10 ORDER OF WORSHIP. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. — John vi. 35, 37. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me : and I give unto them eternal life ; and they shall never perish, neither shall any one pluck them out of my hand. My Father, who gave them me, is greater than all ; and no one is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Fa- ther are one. — John x. 27 - 30. Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life : no one cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also ; and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. - — John xiv. 6, 7. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Fa- ther in me : or else believe me for the very works’ sake. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believ- eth on me, the works that I do shall he do also : and greater ones than these shall he do ; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do ; that the ather may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. — John xiv. 11-14. I am the true Vine, and my Father is the Husband- man. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away : and every one that beareth fruit he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine ; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. — John xv. 1 -4. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 11 I am the Vine, ye are the branches : he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit : for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered ; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. — John xv. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you : continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. — John xv. 8 - 10 . Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain : that whatso- ever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. These things I command you, that ye love one another.- — John xv. 16, 17. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have v ^ asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs ; but the time cometh when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father. At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. — John xvi. 23 - 28. 12 ORDER OF WORSHIP. For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given : And the government shall be upon his shoulder: And his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, God, the Mighty, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, Upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom ; To order it, and to establish it, With judgment and with justice, From henceforth even for ever : The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this. Isa. ix. 6, 7. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God ! We have waited for him, and he will save us : This is Jehovah ! We have waited for him, We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. Isa. xxv. 9. Wherewith shall I come before Jehovah, And bow myself before the high God ? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, With calves of a year old ? Will Jehovah be pleased with thousands of rams, Or with ten thousands of rivers of oil ? Shall I give my first-born for my transgressions, The fruit of my body for the sins of my soul ! He hath showed thee, O man ! what is good ; And what doth Jehovah require of thee, But to do justly, and to love mercy, And to walk humbly with thy God? — Mic. vi. 6-8. [The following may be used as a responsive introduction to the Prayer.] Min. O, come, let us worship and bow down ; Peo. Let us kneel before the face of Je|ho • vah | our | Maker. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 13 Min. For he is our God. Peo. And we are the people of his pasture and the | sheep | of his | hands. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites : for they love to pray standing in the syn- agogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily, I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret ; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do : for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them : for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. After this manner therefore pray ye : — Matt. vi. 6-9. [The Lord’s Prayer, all kneeling.] Our Father who art in the heavens; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation ; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. PART III.

EXODUS XX. Now therefore hearken, O Israel, to the statutes and to the judgments, which I teach you, to do, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers giveth you. Ye shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of Jehovah your God which I command you. And God spake all these words, saying, I. I am Jehovah thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth : thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them : for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and showing mercy unto the thou- ORDER OF WORSHIP. 15 sandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Holy, holy, holy, is Je|hovah * of | Hosts ; His glory is the | fulness * of | all the | earth. II. Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain : for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. He hath commanded his covenant for | e|ver ; Holy and | reve*rend | is his | name. III. Hemember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work : but the seventh day is the Sabbath of Jehovah thy God : in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates : for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Jehovah blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it. Jehovah is in his | ho-ly | temple ; Be silent | all the j earth be|fore him. IV. Honor thy father and thy v mother; that thy days may be long upon the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee. Thy hands have made me, and | form-ed | me ; Make me to understand, that | I may * learn | thy com|mandments. V. Thou shalt not kill. With the merciful thou wilt show thyself | mer*ci|ful ; With an upright man thou wilt | show thy|self up|right. 16 ORDER OF WORSHIP. VI. Thou shalt not commit adultery. With the pure thou wilt show | thyself | pure ; And with the froward | thou wilt J show thyself | froward. VII. Thou shalt not steal.

I have chosen the | way of | truth ; Thy judgments | have I | laid belfore me. IX. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house. Incline my heart to thy | tes*ti| monies ; And | not to • un| right* eous | gain. X. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor’s. All that Je|hovah • hath | spoken, We will | do | and | hear. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. DEUTERONOMY Y. Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them. Jehovah talked with ORDER OF WORSHIP. 17 you face to face in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, saying, I. I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. Thou shalt have none other gods before me. Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth : thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and showing mercy unto the thou- sandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Holy, holy, holy, Lord | God Al|mighty; Who was, and who is, | and who J is to | come. II. Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain : for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify | thy | name ; For | thou a|lone art | holy. III. Keep the Sabbath day to sanctify it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee. Six days thou shalt labor, and do all thy work : but the seventh day is the Sabbath of Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daugh- ter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates ; that thy man-ser- vant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou, 2 * 18 ORDER OF WORSHIP. And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by an out- stretched arm; therefore Jehovah thy God command- ed thee to keep the Sabbath day. This is the day which Je|hovah • hath | made, We will re|joice * and be | glad in | it. IV. Honor thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee ; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee. The righteous shall in|herit* the | land, And | dwell therein for | ever. V. Thou shalt not kill. Let thy mercies come unto me, that | I may | live ; For thy | law is | my de| light. VI. Neither shalt thou commit adultery. Thy word is | ve*ry | pure, Therefore doth thy | servant | love | it. VII. Neither shalt thou steal. Righteous art thou, | O JeJhovah ; And | up*right | are thy | judgments. VIII. Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor. Through thy precepts I get | uirder|standing ; Therefore every | false way | do I | hate. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 19 IX. Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor’s wife.

Then shall I not be ashamed when I have respect unto | all * thy com|mand|ments. THE TWO GREAT COMMANDMENTS. Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which Jehovah your God com- manded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye pass over to possess it ; that thou mightest fear Jehovah thy God, to keep all his stat- utes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou and thy son and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life ; and that thy days may be prolonged. Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do, that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as Jehovah God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey. I. 1. The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord, and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength : this is the first commandment. 20 ORDER OP WORS HI P. 1. Thou art | worthy, *0 | Lord, To receive | glory, * and | honor, * and | power : 2. For thou hast cre|ated • all | things, And for thy pleasure they | are and | were cre|ated. II. 2. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two command- ments hang all the Law and the Prophets. 1. All the paths of Jehovah are | mercy and | truth To those that keep his covenant | and his | tes*ti|monies. 3. And these words which I command thee this day shall be in thine heart; and thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thine house, and on thy gates. 1.

MATTHEW Y. And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain : and when he had sat down, his disciples came unto him. And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, L Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the king- dom of heaven.

Behold, how good and how | pleasant* it | is, For brethren to | dwell together * in | unity. VIII. Blessed are they that are persecuted for righteous- ness’ sake : for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. The salvation of the righteous is | of Je|hovah ; He is their | strength • in the | time of | trouble. IX.

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth : for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears | from their | eyes ; And there shall be | no more | death, Neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be | anymore | pain: For the former things are | passed * a) way. II. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write : for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things ; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. And the Spirit and the | Bride say, | Come. And let him that | heareth * say, | Come. And let him that is a|thirst | come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of | life | freely. III. And there came unto me one of the seven angels that had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the Bride, the Lamb’s wife. And he carried me 24 ORDER OF WORSHIP. away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, de- scending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God : and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; and had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. IV. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb. And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And the city lieth four-square, and the length is as large as the breadth : and he meas- ured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal. And he measured the wall thereof, an hun- dred forty and four cubits, the measure of a man, that is of the angel. And the twelve [ gates were * twelve | pearls ; Every several gate was | of one | pearl : And the street of the city was | pure | gold, As it were trans|pa*rent | glass. V. And I saw no temple therein : for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no | need* of the | sun, Neither of the moon, to I shine in | it: For the glory of Goo did | light-en | it, And the light thereof | is the | Lamb. VI. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do ORDER OF WORSHIP. 25 bring their glory and honor into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day : for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it. And there shall in no wise enter | into | it Any thing- | that de|fileth Or worketh abomination or | maketh - a | lie : But they which are written in the Lamb's | book of | life. VII. And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month : and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse : but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him. And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be | no night | there ; And they need no candle, neither | light • of the | sun ; For the Lord God [ giveth * them | light : And they shall reign for | ever • and | ever. VIII. And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true ; and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to show unto his servants the things that must shortly be done. And behold I come quickly ; and my reward is with me to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

PART I. fThe minister commences the service by reading one of the following, or some other portion of the Word: and where it can be done, the portion may be sung: all standing.] Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Je- hovah, To the house of the God of Jacob; And he will teach us of his ways, And we will walk in his paths : For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among the nations, And shall rebuke many people : And they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks : Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war any more. O house of Jacob ! come ye, And let us walk in the light of Jehovah. [Sel. 72.] Bless Jehovah, O my soul ! And all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless Jehovah, O my soul ! And forget not all his benefits : Who forgiveth ail thine iniquities ; 4 ORDER OF WORSHIP. Who healeth all thy diseases ; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction ; Who crowneth thee with kindness and mercies ; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good; Thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. Jehovah executeth righteousness And judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moe ‘s, His acts to the children of Israel. [Sel. 126.] I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go to the house of Jehovah ; Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem: Jerusalem is built as a city compact together. Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah : A testimony to Israel, to give thanks to the name of Jehovah. For there are set thrones of judgment: The thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem : They shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls ; Prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I will seek good to thee. [Sel. 44.] How beautiful upon the mountains Are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, That proclaimeth peace ; That bringeth good tidings of good, That publisheth salvation ; That saith to Zion, Thy God reigneth ! Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice: With the voice together shall they sing. For they shall see eye to eye, When Jehovah shall bring again Zion. Break forth into joy : Sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem. ORDER OF WORSHIP. & For Jehovah hath comforted his people ; He hath redeemed Jerusalem. Jehovah hath made bare his holy arm, In the eyes of all the nations. And all the ends of the earth Shall see the salvation of our God. [Sel. 65. PART II. [Then shall be read one or more of the following passages from the Word, as intro ductory to prayer.] Take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink ? or, Wherewithal shall we he clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek : for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Ask, and it shall be given you ; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth ; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, of whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone ? or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him ! Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them : for this is the Law and the Prophets. At that time, Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O. Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father : for so it seemed good in thy sight! All things are delivered unto me of my Father : and no one knoweth 1 # r> ORDER OF WORSHIP the Son, hut the Father; neither knoweth any one the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and 1 will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me.; for I am meek and lowly in heart : and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it : and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth, as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father who is in heaven : for where two or three are gathered to- gether in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him ? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith of God. For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. And when ye stand ORDER OF WORSHIP. 7 praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any : that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your trespasses. But I say unto you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to them who hate you, bless them that curse you, and pray for them who despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the cheek, offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also. Give to every one that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again ; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest : for he is kind unto the unthankful and the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you ; seek, and ye shall find ; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth ; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion ? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children ; how much more shall the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him ! Take heed to yourselves ! If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him ; and if he repent, forgive him. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent ; thou shalt forgive him. Two men went up into the temple to pray ; the one 8 ORDER OF WORSHIP. a Pharisee, and the other a Publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself: God, 1 thank thee, that 1 am not as other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this Publican. I fast twice in the week, 1 give tithes of all that I possess. And the Publican, standing afar off, would not lift so much as the eyes unto heaven; but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner ! ] tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him ; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us ; and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace arid truth. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth : for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit; and they that worship him must worship in spirit and in truth. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me 1 will in no wise cast out. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 9 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any one pluck them out of my hand. My Father, who gave them me, is greater than all ; and no one is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one. Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also; and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me : or else believe me for the very works’ sake. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also : and greater ones than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do ; that the Father may be glo- rified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. I am the true Vine, and my Father is the Husband- man. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away : and every one that beareth fruit he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the Yine, ye are the branches : he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit : for without me ye can do nothing. If any one abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered ; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and 10 ORDER OF WORSHIP. my words abide in yon, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s command- ments, and abide in his love. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain : that whatso- ever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. These things I command you, that ye love one another. Eerily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name : ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs ; but the time cometh when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father. At that day ye shall ask in my name : and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you : for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world : again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given : And the government shall be upon his shoulder: And his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, God, the Mighty, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, Upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom; ORDER OF WORSHIP. 11 To order it, and to establish it, With judgment and with justice, From henceforth even for ever : The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God ! We have waited for him, and he will save us : This is Jehovah ! We have waited for him, We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. Seek ye Jehovah, while he may be found, Call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts: And let him return to Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him ; And to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. Wherewith shall I come before Jehovah, And bow myself before the high God ? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings With calves of a year old? Will Jehovah be pleased with thousands of rams, Or with ten thousands of rivers of oil ? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgressions, The fruit of my body for the sine of my soul ! He hath showed thee, O man ! what is good ; And what doth Jehovah require of thee, But to do justly, and to love mercy, And to walk humbly with thy God? O come ! let us worship and bow down : Let us kneel before the face of Jehovah, our Maker. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites : for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Yerily I say unto you, 12 ORDER OF WORSHIP. They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do : for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them : for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. After this man- ner therefore pray ye : PART III.

Now therefore hearken, O Israel, to the statutes and to the judgments, which I teach you, to do, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers giveth you.

And God spake all these words, saying, I. 1 am Jehovah thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth : thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them : for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visit- ing the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me ; and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them. Jehovah talked with you face to face in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, saying, I. I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of ihe land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. Thou shalt have none other gods before me. Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth : thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visit- ing the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of f hem that love me, and keep my commandments.

Six days thou shalt labor, and do all thy work : but the seventh day is the sab- bath of Jehovah thy God : in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates ; that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou. And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.

And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit : for theirs is the king- dom of heaven. 2 * 13 ORHER OF WORSHIP. Blessed are they that mourn : for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek : for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after righteousness : for they shall be tilled. Blessed are the merciful : for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart : for they shall see God. Blessed are the peace-makers : for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they that are persecuted for righteous- ness’ sake : for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when they shall revile you, and per- secute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven : for so persecuted they the prophets who were before you. [After these Blessings, one or more of the following passages may be read.] Ye are the salt of the earth : but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick ; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Fa- ther who is in heaven. Think not that I am come to destroy the Law*, or the Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily, I say unto you, Til) heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one ORDER OF WORSHIP. 19 of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven : but whosoever shall do, and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed that of the Scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt, not kill ; and whosoever shall kill, shall be in danger of the judgment : But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause, shall be in danger of the judgment : and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council : but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell-fire. Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee; leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way: first be reconciled to thy bro- ther, and then come and offer thy gift. Agree with thine adversary quickly, while thou art in the way with him ; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee : for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce- ORDER OF WORSHIP. ‘JO ment: but I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, save for the cause of fornication, caus- eth her to commit adultery : and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths : But I say unto you, Swear not at all: neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne : nor by the earth; for it is his footstool : neither by Jerusalem ; for it is the city of the great King : neither shalt thou swear by thy head ; because thou canst not make one hair white or black. But let your communication be Yea, yea; Nay, nay:* for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil : but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not thou away. Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy : But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you, and persecute you: that ye may be the children of your Father who is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father who is in heaven is perfect. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 21 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them : otherwise ye have no reward of your Father who is in heaven. Therefore when thou doest alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypo- crites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth : that thine alms may be in secret : and thy Father who seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hy- pocrites : for they love to pray standing in the syna- gogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have iheir reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do : for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them : for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, be- fore ye ask him. After this manner therefore pray ye : Our Father, who art in the heavens; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation ; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you : but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your tres- passes. Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, ot a sad countenance : for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward. But thou, when thou 22 ORDER OF WORSHIP- fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face ; that thou appear hot unto men to fast, but unto thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father, who seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal : for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness ! No man can serve two masters : for either he will hate the one, and love the other ; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mam- mon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink ; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air : for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns ; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin : and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these ! Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to- morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat ? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? for after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all ORDER OF WORSHIP. 23 these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall he added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow : for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged : and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy bro- ther’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye ? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye ; and, behold ! a beam is in thine own eye ? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye ; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy bro- ther’s eye. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Ask, and it shall be given you ; seek, and ye shall find ; knock, and it shall be opened unto you : for every one that asketh receiveth ; and he that seeketh findeth ; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, of whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye, then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him ! Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them : for this is the Law and the Prophets. Enter ye in at the strait gate : for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction ; and ORDER OF WORSHIP. 21 many there be who go in thereat : because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life; and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles ? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit ; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth bad fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth bad fruit, neither can a corrupt, tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven ; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not pro- ohesied in thy name? and in thy name cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you : depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore, whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house upon a rock : and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that, house ; and it fell not : for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand : and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell : and great was the fall of it. And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine. For 1 10 taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes. ORDER OF WORSHIP. 25 PART VIII.

Then follows the Sermon.] PART X. [Then a Selection from the Word shall be sung, all standing.] BENEDICTION. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you alL Amen. BAPTISM. (The Minister commences by delivering some introductory instructions. The following may be used, in whole or in part.] NATURE AND USES OF BAPTISM. The primary thing which distinguished the Israelitish church from the Christian, was circumcision ; and because all things of the Israelitish church, which were external, figured forth all the things of the Christian church, which were inter- nal ; therefore the primary sign of that church was inwardly similar to the sign of the Christian church : for circumcision signified the rejection of the lusts of the flesh, and thus purifi- cation from evils. Baptism also signifies the same ; whence it is manifest that baptism was commanded in the room of cir- cumcision, in order both that the Christian church might be distinguished from the Jewish church, and that the internal church might thus be better known : and this is known from the uses of baptism, which are as follows. The first use of baptism is introduction into the Christian church, and at the same time insertion among Christians in the spiritual world. Not only infants, but also all, are inserted by baptism among Christians in the spiritual world; because people and nations in that world are distinguished according to their religions, as Christians, Mahometans, Idolaters and Jews. And all, of the same religion, are arranged into societies in heaven, according to the affections of love to God and love towards the neighbor. On this distinct arrangement there, the preservation of the whole universe depends; and this dis- tinction cannot be effected, unless every one, after he is born, be known by some sign, indicating to what religious society he belongs : and baptism is a sign in that world, that a man is of Christians, BAPTISM. 27 The second use of baptism is, that the Christian may know and acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ, the Redeemer and Savior, and follow him. This second use inseparably follows from the first. For the name that one is a Christian, that is, that he is of Christ, and not to acknowledge him and follow him, that is, to live according to his commandments, is as a shadow. By the name of the Lord Jesus Christ are meant his divine qualities or attributes ; and by being baptized into his name are spiritually signified an acknowledgment of him, and a life according to his commandments. By name also is meant the quality of any person : the reason is, because in the spi- ritual world every one is named according to his quality : wherefore by the name that one is a Christian is meant his quality, that he has faith in Christ, and charity towards the neighbor for Christ. This name all receive at baptism, for it is in the sign. The third use of baptism, which is the final use, is that man may be regenerated. This use is the very use, for the sake of which baptism was instituted ; thus the final use. The reason is, because he who is truly a Christian, knows and acknowledges the Lord the Redeemer Jesus Christ, who, because he is the Redeemer, is also the Regenerator. These three uses of baptism cohere as one. For the first use is, that one may be named a Christian : the second fol- lowing from this is, that he may know and acknowledge the Lord, the Redeemer, Regenerator and Savior : and the third is, that he may be regenerated by him : and when this is done, he is redeemed and saved. Since these three uses fol- low in order and join themselves together in the last, and thence in the idea of the angels cohere as one, therefore when baptism is performed, read in the word, and named, the an- gels who are present do not understand baptism, but regenera- tion. Let the Christian therefore know, that whosoever does not believe in the Lord, cannot be regenerated, although he has been baptized ; and that baptism, without faith in the Lord, has no saving effect. It is said in the Word, that the Lord God, our Redeemer, baptizes with the Holy Spirit and with fire. By this is meant that the Lord regenerates man by the divine truth of faith, and by the divine good of love or charity. Those who have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit, that is, by the divine 28 BAPTISM. truth of faith, are distinguished in the heavens from those who have been regenerated by fire, that is, by the divine good of love. Those who have been regenerated by the divine truth of faith, are called spiritual angels ; but those who have been regenerated by the divine good of love, are called celestial angels. [Then the Minister may read the following.] DOCTRINES OF CHARITY AND OF FAITH. I. That God is one in essence, and in person : that from love towards men he assumed humanity and glo- rified it : and that he thus became God with us, the Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ. II. That the Word is Divine Truth, proceeding from the Lord : that it was written by inspiration, and is adapted to all the various states of angels and men : and that thus it is the divine medium by which men are consociated with angels, and by which men and angels are conjoined with the Lord. III. That the Lord alone is the Source of genuine life, the precepts of which are the Ten Commandments : that these precepts are to be obeyed by man as of him- self, with the acknowledgment that the will and power to do them are of the Lord alone : and thus that men are regenerated and saved by the Lord, by means of a life according to his precepts. iThe Minister shall then read one or more of the following passages from the Word.] Comfort ye, comfort ye my people ! Saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, That her warfare is accomplished, That her iniquity is pardoned : For she hath received of Jehovah’s hand Double for all her sins. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of Jehovah; BAPTISM. 29 Make straight in the desert a highway for our God ! Every valley shall be exalted, And every mountain and hill shall be made low ; And the crooked shall be made straight, And the rough places plain : And the glory of Jehovah shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together : For the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken it. Behold ! I will send my messenger, And he shall prepare the way before me: And the Lord, whom ye seek, Shall suddenly come to his temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in : Behold ! he shall come, saith Jehovah of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming! And who shall stand when he appeareth ! For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fuller’s soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: And he shall purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer unto Jehovah an offering in right- eousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem Be pleasant unto Jehovah, As in the days of old, And as in former years. In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, and saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand ! For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord ! make his paths straight ! And the same John had his raiment of camel’s hair, and a lea- thern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey. Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan, and were bap- 3 * 30 BAPTISM. tized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers! who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance : and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for a father : for I say unto you, that God is able of tSiese stones to raise up children unto Abraham. And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance : but he that cometh after me is mightier than 1, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear : he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit, and with fire : whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbade him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me! And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now ; for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo ! the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him : -and lo ! a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicode- mus, a ruler of the Jews : the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God : for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, 1 say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saitli unto him, How can a man be born BAPTISM 31 when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, ex- cept a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he can- not enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh ; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it list- eth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth : so is every one that is bom of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak what we do know, and testify what we have seen ; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believed not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man who is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not con- demned : but he that believeth not is condemned al- ready, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemna- tion, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they arc wrought in God. 32 BAPTISM. 1 am the good shepherd : the good shepherd givetli his life for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father : and I lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold : them also 1 must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. There- fore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any one pluck them out of my hand. My Father, who gave them me, is greater than all ; and no one is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one. And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them : and the disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not : for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily, I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them. And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit ; teaching them to observe all things what- soever I have commanded you : and, lo ! I am with you all the days, until the consummation of the age. Amen. BAPTISM. 33 [Then the Minister, applying the water, shall say :] Thou art hereby baptized into the name of the Father , and of the Son , and of the Holy Spirit. Amen . [Then placing his hands upon the person’s head, he shall say :] The Lord bless thee and keep thee ; the Lord make his face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee ; the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. [Then shall be repeated the Lord’s Prayer, all kneeling.] Our Father who art in the heavens; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. [Then shall be sung a portion from the Word, if convenient*] BENEDICTION. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. THE HOLY SUPPER. [The Minister commences by giving some introductory instructions. The following may be used, in whole or in part.] NATURE AND USES OF THE HOLY SUPPER. Baptism is an introduction into the church, and the Holy Supper is an introduction into heaven. These two sacra- ments are, as it were, two gates to eternal life. Every Christian man by baptism, which is the first gate, is admitted and introduced into the things which the church teaches from the Word concerning another life; which all are means, by which man may be prepared for and led to heaven. The other gate is the Holy Supper, through which every man, who has suffered himself to be prepared and led by the Lord, is admitted and introduced into heaven. The holiness of this sacrament is made manifest, since the spiritual sense of the Word, and the correspondence of natural things with spiritual, have by the divine mercy of the Lord been revealed. By these four things, flesh, blood , bread and wine, are meant the spiritual and celestial things which correspond to them, as may be evident from the passages in the Word where they are named. By flesh and blood are meant good and truth, both spiritual. This is still more evident from the significa- tion of bread and wine ; since the Lord says, that his flesh is bread, and that his blood is wine. That by the blood of the Lord is meant the Divine Truth of Himself and the Word, is because by his flesh spiritually is meant the divine good of love ; and these two are united in the Lord. It is known that the Lord is the Word ; and there are two things to which all things of the Word have reference, THE HOLY SUPPER. 3 5 divine good and divine truth ; wherefore if the Word is taken for the Lord, it is manifest, that these two things are meant by his flesh and blood. That the divine truth of the Lord, or of the Word, is meant by blood, is evident from many pas- sages ; as that blood was called the blood of the covenant ; and a covenant is conjunction, and this is effected by the Lord by means of his divine truth. By the Blood of the Neio Co- venant , or Testament , nothing else is signified but the Word which is called a Covenant and Testament, Old and New, thus the divine truth therein. Since this is signified by blood, therefore the Lord gave them wine, saying, This is my blood ; and wine signifies divine truth; wherefore it also is called the blood of grapes. Hence, now, it may be evident what is meant by the flesh and blood of the Lord, and by bread and wine, in the threefold sense, natural, spiritual and celestial. Every man in Christendom, imbued with religion, may know, or if he does not know, may learn, that natural nourish- ment is for the body, but spiritual nourishment for the soul : for Jehovah, the Lord, says in Moses, Man doth not live by bread alone , but by every thing that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live. Now, because the body dies, and the soul lives after death, it follows, that spiritual nourishment is for eternal salvation. But if any one cannot think any thing else from the understanding than what he sees with the eye, let him think with himself concerning the holy supper, when he takes the bread and wine and hears them then called the flesh and blood of the Lord, that it is the most holy thing of worship ; and let him remember the passion of Christ, and his love for the salvation of man ; for he says, Do this in remembrance of Me. The holy supper is, to those who come to it worthily, a signing and seal that they are the sons of God ; because the Lord is then present, and introduces into heaven those who are born of him, that is, the regenerate. That the holy sup- per does this, is because the Lord is then present also, as to his Human : for He says of the bread, This is my body , and of the wine, This is my blood ; consequently, he admits them into his body ; and the church and heaven constitute his body. When man is being regenerated, the Lord is indeed present, and by his divine operation prepares man for heaven ; but that he may actually enter, man must actually present himself to the Lord : and because the Lord actually presents himself to nan, man must actually receive Him ; not, indeed, as He 36 THE HOLY SUPPER. hung on the cross, but as He is, in his glorified Human, in which He is present: and the body of this is divine good, and its blood is divine truth. These are given to man, and by them he is regenerated, and is in the Lord, and the Lord in him; for, as was shown, the eating which is performed in the holy supper is a spiritual eating. From these things, rightly perceived, it is evident, that the holy supper is a signing and seal, that those who come to it worthily are the sons of God. Wherefore, all those who worthily go to the holy Communion, become his redeemed ; and because by redemption are meant deliverance from hell, and conjunction with Him, and salva- tion, therefore those fruits are ascribed to man ; not, indeed, so far as the Lord wills, because from his divine love He wills to ascribe them all ; but as far as man receives : and he who receives is redeemed in the degree in which he receives. Whence it is evident, that the effects and fruits of the Lord’s redemption return to those who worthily approach. [Then shall be read some of the following portions from the Word.] And in this mountain shall Jehovah of hosts make unto all people A feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, Of fat things full of marrow, Of wines on the lees well refined. And he will destroy in this mountain The face of the covering cast over all people, And the vail that is spread over all nations. He will swallow up death in victory ; And the Lord Jehovih will wipe away tears from off all faces ; And the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth ; For Jehovah hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God ! We have waited for him, and he will save us : This is Jehovah ! We have waited for him, We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. THE HOLY SUPPER. 37 And, thou son of man ! thus saith the Lord Jehovih ; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come ! Gather yourselves on every side To my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, A great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, That ye may eat flesh, and drink blood. Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, And drink the blood of the princes of the earth, Of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, All of them fatlings of Bashati. And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, And drink blood till ye be drunken, Of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you. Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, With mighty men, and with all men of war, Saith the Lord Jehovih. And I will set my glory among the heathen, And all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, And my hand that I have laid upon them. So the house of Israel shall know that I am Jehovah their God, From that day and forward. Alleluia ! for the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth ! Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him : for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white : for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he saith unto me. Write, Blessed are they who are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And I saw an angel standing in the sun ; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God ! 4 38 THE HOLY SUPPER. Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the passover. And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him : for they feared the people. Then entered Satan into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. And he promised, and sought opportu- nity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude. Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? And he said unto them, Behold! when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water ; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the pass- over with my disciples? And he shall show you a large upper room furnished : there make ready. And they went, and found as he had said unto them : and they made ready the passover. And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer : for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves : for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you : this do ye in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. THE HOLY SUPPER. 39 Behold ! I stand at the door, and knock : if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches ! Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee ; leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way : first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Fathet sealed. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus an- swered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. They said therefore unto him, What sign showest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is writ- ten, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. Then Jesus said unto them, Yerily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven ; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is he who cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life : he that cometh to me shall never hunger ; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me ; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For 1 came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father’s will who hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I 40 THE HOLY SUPPER. should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one who seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life : and I will raise him up at the last day. The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. And they said, is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. No one can come to me, except the Fa- ther who hath sent me draw him : and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the Prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every one therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, com- eth unto me. Not that any one hath seen the Fa- ther, save he who is of God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. I am that bread of life. Your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that one may eat thereof, and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven : if any one eat of this bread, he shall live for ever : and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover ? And he said, Go into the city to such an one, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand ; i will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover. Now when the evening was come, he sat down with the twelve. And as they did eat, he said, Verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and began every one of THE HOLY SUPPER. 41 them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. The Son of man goeth as it is written of him : but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed ! it had been good for that man if he had not been born ! Then Judas, who betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I ? He said unto him, Thou hast said. And as they were eating, Jesus took the bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat ; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it ; for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom. And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives. [Then shall be repeated the Lord’s Prayer, all kneeling".] Our Father, who art in the heavens; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in Leaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation ; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. (Then the Minister, distributing the bread, shall say :J Jesus took the Bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my Body. [And when he gives the cup, he shall say :] And he took the Cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is my Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. A* 42 THE HOLY SUPPEK. jWhen all have partaken, the following passages may be read.] Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end. And supper being ended, (the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to be- tray him,) Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God; he riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments, and took a towel, and girded himself. After that he poureth water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. Then com- eth he to Simon Peter : and Peter said unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him, What 1 do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jesus saith unto him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all. For he knew who should betray him : therefore said he, Ye are not all clean. So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and had sat down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you ? Ye call me Master, and Lord : and ye say well ; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet : for I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. Verily, verily, 1 say unto you, The ser- vant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto THE HOLY SUPPER. 43 you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life ; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father ; so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. This is that bread which came down from heaven : not as your fathers did eat the manna, and are dead : he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me ? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord ; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me ? and he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things ; thou know- est that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. [Then shall be sung a portion from the Word.,] BENEDICTION. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with vou all. Amen. MARRIAGE. [The Minister commences by giving some instruction concerning Marriage. Thu following may be used.] We are now assembled lor the purpose of consecrating by religious service the marriage covenant between and — — Jesus said. He who made them at the beginning, made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they two shall be one flesh. Wherefore they are no more twain but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. The marriage of one man with one woman is there- fore designed in our very creation by him who made us. The love, which brings them together and binds them together, flows into their minds from the Divine Love, — from the love which has operated hitherto, and which now operates, in creating and forming a heaven of human beings. In its origin, conjugial love is the union of Divine Love and Divine Wisdom, — the union of the Divine and the Human. In its operation, it not only produces men, but it produces every thing human in men. It prepares them for the reception of love and wisdom from the Lord. It unites goodness and truth in their minds. It thus causes them to acknowledge the Lord as the only source of Love and Wisdom, and prepares them to live in the celestial marriage union with him for ever. MARRIAGE. 4 5 And since love truly conjugial is derived from the union of Divine Love and Divine Wisdom, and since it corresponds to and leads to the marriage of the Lord and the church, it is evident that marriage is a most sacred institution. It is the means of the most impor- tant use in the divine kingdom of uses. It is the reci- pient, the image and the fountain, of every blessing in earth and in heaven. But in order that our natural views and feelings, in marriage and concerning marriage, may be converted into spiritual, we must regard it as a Divine Ordinance; we must regard the Lord himself as present in it ; and we must fulfil its duties in love to him, and in obedience to his commandments. And therefore, in order that he may, now by his presence and benediction, consecrate the work of his own hands, let us in spirit and in truth look unto him for a blessing. [Then shall be repeated the Lord’s Prayer.] Our Father who art in the heavens ; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation ; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. [Then the Minister, addressing the man, shall say :] wife? dost thou take this woman to be thy Answer : — I do. [Then addressing the woman, he shall say :] , dost thou take this man to be thy husband? Answer : — I do. 46 MARRIAGE. [When the consent of the parties has been given, the Minister shall ask them :] Do you now, in the presence of Him who hath all power in heaven and upon earth, and in the presence of these witnesses, declare your intention, faithfully to perform all your duties to each other in the marriage covenant, according to the laws of God? Answer , each : — I do. When a ring is used, the Minister shall say :] This Ring is given and received, in token that ye are now Husband and Wife. [Then the Minister shall make the following declaration.] Forasmuch as and have entered into the Marriage Covenant, and have mutu- ally promised to perform their duties to each other in this relation, I therefore pronounce them to be Husband and Wife. [Then a portion of the Word may be sung, if convenient.] BENEDICTION. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. FUNERAL SERVICE. [The Minister commences by reading some of the following passages from the Word.J O Jehovah ! make me to know mine end, And the measure of my days, what it is : That I may know how frail I am. Behold ! thou hast made my days as an handbreadth ; And mine age is as nothing before thee : Verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Surely every man walketh in a vain show : Surely they are disquieted in vain : He heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them. Lord ! thou hast been our dwelling place, In generation and generation. Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Thou turnest man to destruction ; And sayest, Return, ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight Are but as yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night. Thou carriest them away as with a flood ; They are as a sleep : in the morning they are like grass which groweth up. In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; In the evening it is cut down, and withereth. So teach us to number our days, That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. 48 FUNERAL SERVICE. Like as a father pitieth his children, So Jehovah pitieth them that fear him. For He knoweth our frame ; He remembereth that we are dust. As for man, his days are as grass : As a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the place thereof shall know it no more. But the mercy of Jehovah is from everlasting to ever- lasting upon them that fear him, And his righteousness unto children’s children ; To such as keep his covenant, And to those that remember his commandments to do them. Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord the God of Abra- ham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for to him all are living. Jesus said, I am the Resurrection, and the Life. He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live : and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after : and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God: and all these things shall be added unto you. Fear not, little flock ; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell what ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that failcth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burn- ing; and ye yourselves like unto men that wait foj: FUNERAL SERVICE. 49 their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the mas- ter of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye there- fore ready also : for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not. Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them : but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bride- groom cometh ! go ye out to meet him ! Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil ; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, say- ing, Not so ; lest there be not enough for us and you : but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for your- selves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came ; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage : and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord ! Lord ! open to us ! But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and 5 50 FUNERAL SERVICE. delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every one according to his several ability ; and straightway took his journey. Then he that had re- ceived the five talents went and traded with the same, and made other five talents. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money. After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents ; behold ! I have gained beside them five talents more. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant : thou hast been faithful over a few things, 1 will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord ! He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliver- edst unto me two talents ; behold! I have gained two other talents beside them. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant ! thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things : enter thou into the joy of thy lord ! Then he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strowed : and f was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth : behold thou hast thine own. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant ! thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strowed 1 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers ; and at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him who hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer dark- ness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. FUNERAL SERVICE. 51 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory; and before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from ano- ther, as a shepherd divideth the sheep from the goats: and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father ! inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world : for I was hungry, and ye gave me meat : I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink : I was a stranger, and ye took me in : naked, and ye clothed me : I was sick, and ye visited me : I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hung^, and fed thee ! or thirsty, and gave thee drink ! When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in ! or naked, and clothed thee ! Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee! And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed ! into everlasting fire, pre- pared for the devil and his angels : for I was hungry, and ye gave me no meat : I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink : I was a stranger, and ye took me not in : naked, and ye clothed me not : sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee ! Then shall he an? swer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. And these shall go away into everlasting pu- nishment : but the righteous into life eternal. Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen. 52 FUNERAL SERVICE. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth ! Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors ; and their works do follow with them. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still : and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still : and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold ! I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every one according as his works shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Blessed are they that do his commandments ! that they may have right to the tree of life and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and mur- derers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and doeth a lie. [Then the Minister shall give some instruction suitable to the occasion. The following may be used.] We are now assembled to perform our last earthly duties to a departed — — — We are about to consign 1 body to the tomb, whilst 1 soul is ascending into the world of spirits. To our natural feelings the duty is a sad and mournful one ; because our natural connection with 1 has come to an end. We can no longer see or hear 1 ; for with our na- tural senses we can perceive nothing but what is natural. Therefore, to our natural views and our natural feelings, there appears to be a total separation. And consequently, while we permit our natural feelings to prevail in us, we shall mourn. But in the doctrines of the New Jerusalem we are taught, that this apparent separation is not a real separation ; that our friends continue to live ; and that they remain as near unto us spiritually, as they were before. These doctrines teach us that nothing but the body of man • Brother or sister. t His or her. I Him or her FUNERAL SERVICE. 53 dies ; that nothing but his body is buried in the grave. They teach us that his spirit, when divested of its natural covering, continues to live ; that when he casts off the natural body, he rises in a spiritual body ; that he continues to exist in the human form ; that he is in every respect more perfectly human than he was before ; that his prevailing character remains the same ; that his ruling affections and thoughts remain the same ; and consequently, that he continues to be as properly an object of affection, as he was when present to our senses. From the doctrines of the New Jerusalem we learn, that all the inhabitants of the spiritual world are arranged in societies according to their characters; that similarity of character draws them together, and that dissimilarity separates them : that all those who act from love to the Lord and the neighbor, are in the heavens ; and that all those who act from the love of self and the world are in the hells : that in the heavens there are various kinds of good affections ; and in the hells, various kinds of evil affections : and that those who have simi- lar affections, and who are thus qualified to live together and act together, are drawn into the same society. From these doctrines we learn, that all of us, who are in the natural world, are internally and spiritually associated either with good or evil spirits, who are similar to ourselves: that if we act from good affections, we are internally associated with, and act with, good spirits ; and that if we act from evil affections, we are internally associated with evil spirits, and act with them : also, that we can come out of an evil society into a good one, by resisting our evil affections, and cherishing those which are good ; and that we go out of a good society into an evil one, when we resist the good, and cherish the evil. We learn that when a person dies, he comes into manifest association with the spirits that he was before internally and secretly associated with ; that for this purpose he is di- vested of every thing which is not in agreement with his ruling affections. If his internal and ruling affections are good, he is cleansed from all external impurities ; but if they are evil, he is divested of all the external appearances of good- ness, which would enable him to deceive. We learn that when a person dies he comes into the spiri- tual world ; which is adapted to his spiritual body, as the na- tural world is adapted to the natural body : that there is a correspondence between the spiritual world and the natural 5 * 54 FUNERAL SERVICE. world ; between the spiritual body and the natural body ; be- tween the spiritual senses and the natural senses; and between spiritual employments and natural employments : and that as he then has a body, which is adapted to the world in which he lives, and to the uses which he has to perform, therefore his material body will never be resumed. We learn that if we are internally and spiritually united to any person while here, the union is not severed by death : that, although he is then invisible to us, and we are invisible to him, yet his influence still continues to operate upon us, and that our influence continues to operate upon him : that we are still spiritually near together: that his affection for us still contributes to our happiness, and that our affection for him still contributes to his happiness. We thus learn not to mourn at the death of our friends, as if they had ceased to exist, nor as if they had ceased to he what they were, nor as if we were entirely separated from them : but at the same time, we learn to mourn on account of those habits of thinking and feeling which bind our spirits to the earth, and make us un- mindful of the world to which our friends have gone, and to which we are going. We learn to mourn, not because our friends are dead, but because we ourselves have so little of spiritual life. With regard to those who die in infancy and childhood, we learn from the doctrines of the New Church, that they are, through the mercy of the Lord, all of them saved. For until a man arrives at maturity, he does not become confirmed in his opposition to the government and laws of God, nor fixed in the determination and habit of acting according to the dic- tates of his own will and understanding. We learn that those, who leave this world during infancy, enter the spiritual world as infants; and that those, who leave here in childhood, enter that world as children : that as soon as they leave the material body, and are thus born into the spiritual world, the angels receive them with the greatest joy, watch over them with the tenderest affection, and instruct them step after step in the wisdom of heavenly life, until they grow to maturity ; until they are prepared to engage in angelic employments, and do themselves become angels. Under the light of the New Jerusalem, the terrors of death are not destroyed, but they are converted into instructers. In the minds of those who see by this light, the idea of death is transformed into that of resurrection. Thev do not think FUNERAL SERVICE. 55 about the end of temporal existence, but about the com- mencement of eternal existence. Instead of the darkness of the grave, they think about the light of the spiritual work! : for the light of the New Jerusalem is heavenly light : it is the light by which angels see : and when we are in it, we cannot think about the cold inanimate body, which is left in the tomb ; but about the living man, who is rising into the spiritual world. We cannot sympathize with the matter which is cast off, but with the spirit which is delivered from it. We do not, in our thoughts, go through the gloom of funereal cere- monies to the gates of darkness and oblivion ; but we rise, as he rises ; we leave these things behind us ; and in our affec- tions and thoughts go with him into the abodes of eternal life and heavenly joy. When we are under the light of the New Jerusalem, we see in death an image representing the regeneration of man. As death is the passage from the natural world into the spiri- tual, so regeneration is the change from a natural to a spiritual state of mind. While we are suffering ourselves to be rege- nerated, all our corporeal and worldly views and feelings are brought into subjection. In following the Lord, we are obliged to forsake our houses and lands, our brethren and sisters, our father and mother, our wife and children, for his sake. From love to him, we are to renounce our natural selfish affections for our relatives and property. And when we have thus put away our natural affections, we shall be prepared to have spiritual ones ; and shall thus receive an hundred fold. We thus pass from a worldly into a heavenly state of mind. We then look down upon the world as they do who have left it. We look upon it only in relation to its spiritual design and uses. We regard it and we value it, only as a place of preparation for heaven. At death we also leave a world from which the Lord is ap- parently absent, and come into one where he is manifestly present. So when we suffer ouselves to be regenerated, we pass out of a state of mind from which the Lord is apparently absent, into one in which he is constantly present : out of a state in which we imagine that we have power of ourselves to will, to think and to act, into one in which we perceive and acknowledge that without him we can do nothing. We come into this state, by following him, and putting ourselves under his government : by denying ourselves, and learning to ac- knowledge him. For he is as really present with us while 56 FUNERAL SERVICE. we are in this world, as he will be when we go into the spiri- tual world. It is because our affections and thoughts are far from him, that he appears to be far from us. It is our self- love and self-confidence, that prevents us from perceiving his presence, and feeling his influence. These things must there- fore be overcome ; they must die in us, before our minds can be opened to receive him. Jesus saith, He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me ; and he that loveth me ^hall be loved of my Father; and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me : and he that loveth son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me : and he that taketh not his cross and fol- loweth after me, is not worthy of me. He, that findeth his life, shall lose it ; and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it. [Then shall be repeated the Lord’s Prayer.] Our Father, who art in the heavens; Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so also upon the earth. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. rThen a portion of the Word may be sung, if convenient.] BENEDICTION. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. ARTICLES OF FAITH, Of the New Church signified by the New Jerusalem in the Revelation . [To be read, when deemed proper, after the Second Portion from the Word in Public Worship; or on other occasions : the people sitting.] 1. That Jehovah God, the Creator and Preserver of hea- ven and earth, is Love Itself and Wisdom Itself, or Good It- self and Truth Itself: That he is One both in Essence and in Person, in whom, nevertheless, is the Divine Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, which are the Essential Divinity, the Divine Humanity, and the Divine Proceeding, answering to the soul, the body, and the operative energy in man : And that the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is that God. 2. That Jehovah God himself descended from heaven, as Divine Truth, which is the Word, and took upon him Human Nature for the purpose of removing from man the powers of hell, and restoring to order all things in the spiritual world, and all things in the church : That he removed from man the powers of hell, by combats against and victories over them ; in which consisted the great work of Redemption : That by the same acts, which were his temptations, the last of which was the passion of the cross, he united, in his Humanity, Divine Truth to Divine Good, or Divine Wisdom to Divine Love, and so returned into his Divinity in which he was from eter- nity, together with, and in, his Glorified Humanity ; whence he for ever keeps the infernal powers in subjection to himself: And that all who believe in him, with the understanding, from the heart, and live accordingly, will be saved. 3. That the Sacred Scripture, or Word of God, is Divine Truth Itself ; containing a Spiritual Sense heretofore un- known, whence it is divinely inspired and holy in every syl- 58 ARTICLES OF FAITH. lable ; as well as a Literal Sense, which is the basis of its Spiritual Sense, and in which Divine Truth is in its fulness, its sanctity, and its power : thus that it is accommodated to the apprehension both of angels and men : That the spiritual and natural senses are united, by correspondences, like soul and body, every natural expression and image answering to, and including, a spiritual and divine idea : And thus that the Word is the medium of communication with heaven, and of conjunction with the Lord. 4. That the government of the Lord’s Divine Love and Wisdom is the Divine Providence ; which is universal, exer- cised according to certain fixed laws of Order, and extending to the minutest particulars of the life of all men, both of the good and of the evil : That in all its operations it has respect to what is infinite and eternal, and makes no account of things transitory but as they are subservient to eternal ends ; thus, that it mainly consists, with man, in the connection of things temporal with things eternal ; for that the continual aim of the Lord, by his Divine Providence, is to join man to himself and himself to man, that he may be able to give him the felicities of eternal life : And that the laws of permission are also laws of the Divine Providence ; since evil cannot be prevented without destroying the nature of man as an accountable agent ; and because, also, it cannot be removed unless it be known, and cannot be known unless it appear: Thus, that no evil is permitted but to prevent a greater ; and all is overruled, by the Lord’s Divine Providence, for the greatest possible good. 5. That man is not life, but is only a recipient of life from the Lord, who, as he is Love Itself and Wisdom Itself, is also Life Itself ; which life is communicated by influx to all in the spiritual world, whether belonging to heaven or to hell, and to all in the natural world; but is received differently by every one, according to his quality and consequent state of re- ception. 6. That man, during his abode fh the world, is, as to his spirit, in the midst between heaven and hell, acted upon by influences from both, and thus is kept in a state of spiritual equilibrium between good and evil; in consequence of which he enjoys free-will, or freedom of choice, in spiritual things as well as in natural, and possesses the capacity of either turning himself to the Lord and his kingdom, or turning him- self away from the Lord, and connecting himself with the kingdom of darkness : And that, unless man had such' free- ARTICLES OF FAITH. 59 dom of choice, the Word would be of no use, the Church would be a mere name, man would possess nothing by virtue of which he could be conjoined to the Lord, and the cause of evil would be chargeable on God himself. 7. That man at this day is bom into evil of all kinds, or with tendencies towards it : That, therefore, in order to his entering the kingdom of heaven, he must be regenerated or created anew ; which great work is effected in a progressive manner, by the Lord alone, by charity and faith as mediums, during man’s co-operation : That as all men are redeemed, all are capable of being regenerated, and consequently saved, every one according to his state : And that the regenerate man is in communion with the angels of heaven, and the un- regenerate with the spirits of hell : But that no one is con- demned for hereditary evil, any further than as he makes it his own by actual life ; whence all who die in infancy are saved, special means being provided by the Lord in the other life for that purpose. 8. That Repentance is the first beginning of the Church in man ; and that it consists in a man’s examining himself, both in regard to his deeds and his intentions, in knowing and ac- knowledging his sins, confessing them before the Lord, sup- plicating him for aid, and beginning a new life : That to this end, all evils, whether of affection, of thought, or of life, are to be abhorred and shunned as sins against God, and because they proceed from infernal spirits, who in the aggregate are called the Devil and Satan ; and that good affections, good thoughts, and good actions, are to be cherished and performed, because they are of God and from God : That these things are to be done by mamas of himself; nevertheless, under the acknowledgment and belief, that it is from the Lord, operat- ing in him and by him : That so far as man shuns evils as sins, so far they are removed, remitted, or forgiven ; so far also he does good, not from himself, but from the Lord ; and in the same degree he loves truth, has faith, and is a spiritual man : And that the Decalogue teaches what evils are sins. 9. That Charity, Faith, and Good Works, are unitedly ne- cessary to man’s salvation ; since charity, without faith, is not spiritual, but natural ; and faith, without charity, is not living, but dead ; and both charity and faith, without good works, are merely mental and perishable things, because with- out use or fixedness : And that nothing of faith, of charity, or 60 ARTICLES OP FAITH. of good works, is of man; but that all is of the Lord, and all the merit is his alone. 10. That Baptism and the Holy Supper are sacraments of divine institution, and are to be permanently observed ; Bap- tism being an external medium of introduction into the Church, and a sign representative of man’s purification and regeneration ; and the Holy Supper being an external medium, to those who receive it worthily, of introduction, as to spirit, into heaven, and of conjunction with the Lord ; of which also it is a sign and seal. 11. That immediately after death, which is only a putting off of the material body, never to be resumed, man rises again in a spiritual or substantial body, in which he continues to live to eternity ; in heaven, if his ruling affections, and thence his life, have been good ; and in hell, if his ruling affections, and thence his life, have been evil. 12. That Now is the time of the Second Advent of the Lord, which is a Coming, not in Person, but in the power and glory of his Holy Word: That it is attended, like his first Coming, with the restoration to order of all things in the spi- ritual world, where the wonderful divine operation, commonly expected under the name of the Last Judgment, has in conse- quence been performed ; and with the preparing of the way for a New Church on the earth, — the first Christian Church hav- ing spiritually come to its end or consummation, through evils of life and errors of doctrine, as foretold by the Lord in the Gospels : And that this New or Second Christian Church, which will be the Crown of all Churches, and will stand for ever, is what was representatively seen by John, when he be- held the holy city, New Jerusalem, descending from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

And I heard a great voice out of heaven, saying, Behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall dwell with them, and they shall be his people ; and God himself shall be with them, their God. And he shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and death shall be no more ; neither sorrow nor crying nor pain shall be more ; for the former things are passed away.

One of the most remarkable peculiarities in the style of the Sacred Scriptures, is, the frequent occurrence of its subjects in pairs ; for ex- ample, nations and people — joy and gladness — justice , or righteousness , and judgment — speak and say — see and behold , — and numberless others. (See Mum. xxiii. 7 to 10, 18 to 24 ; and xxiv. 5 to 9, and 17 to 19 ; and the Psalms and Prophets throughout.) The consequence of this is, that the sentences or verses are generally composed of two clauses ; which is almost invariably the case in the Psalms, and indeed in most parts of the Word, though it might not, at first sight, appear. Some instances occur, where the clauses are triple; — Ps. xxiv. 7 to 10; Ps. c. It is generally thought a sufficient explanation of this, to say that it is according to the oriental style of writing; as if, in saying this, it would not be necessary to assign a cause for this same oriental style ; which, nevertheless, had its origin in the same cause as the style men- tioned above. In the doctrines of the New Jerusalem Church, for whose use this work is compiled, it is shown that every part of the Divine Word has a spiritual sense ; and that, as it is written for the instruction of man, whose mind is constituted of two faculties, will and understand- ing, the former for the reception of goodness, and the latter for that of truth, from the Lord ; therefore the Word is, in all its parts, accommo- dated to man as possessed of these two faculties; and in the above double arrangement of subjects, the one always has reference to goodness, or the will of man, and the other to truth , or his understanding ; and where a third clause is added, it refers to the union of goodness and truth in operation, act or life : also, that the Word not only relates to man, but primarily to the Lord; and that these same subjects in the Word have reference to love and wisdom in him ; and that the various names of Jehovah, or Lord, and God — Father and Son — Creator and Redeemer , — which are applied to the Divine Being in the Word, — have the same reference ; and that where a third subject is added, it refers to the union of love and wisdom in the Lord in operation , that is, to his Holy Spirit. Structure of Chants. This peculiar structure of the verses in the Sacred Scriptures, is the ground on which the common chant is constructed. A Chant, there- fore, is a musical composition, consisting of two strains, as Chant 40, in which are to be sung the two clauses of a verse or sentence. The first strain comprises three measures or bars, and the second four. The first note in each strain is called the chanting note , and usually fills the first 388 PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING. measure ; and the remaining notes are called the cadence. To the chant ing note of the first strain is sung the first clause of the verse, except a sufficient number of the last words or syllables to apply to the cadence ; and to the chanting note of the second strain is sung the second clause, except words enough to sing the cadence. Several words, making what is called the recitative , will thus be sung to the chanting note; and though it is always a note of some given duration, (generally a semi- breve,) yet it is to be regarded as having no time of itself, but is to be made longer or shorter, according to the number of words or syllables to be sung to it. This is the Single Chant. A Double Chant consists of four strains, instead of two, and is intended for two verses of the psalm. A Ternary Chant is composed of three strains, for psalms whose verses consist of three clauses. Chant 43 is peculiar, and is to be sung by repealing the second and third strains after the first, alternately ; and of course sings two verses. Of the Application of the Words in Chanting. 11 A great difficulty, in arranging the words of a chant, is to know when to break off from the words of the recitative, and to begin the cadence.” An attempt has been made, in this work, to obviate this dif- ficulty, by placing a perpendicular dash , thus, ( | ) immediately before the syllable which commences the second measure. The location of this dash has been governed solely by the sense of the passages Jt is a well-known rule, that in double time (common time), which is the time of all the chants used in this work, the first note of a measure is ac- cented, and the second unaccented. The endeavor has been, so to place the dash , that the accented and emphatic syllables will naturally fall to the accented notes, and the unaccented and unimportant syllables to the unaccented notes ; and particularly to make the last accented or em- phatic syllable commence the last measure of the cadence, by whatever number of syllables or words it might be followed. The manner of ap- plying the words, after the dash, must therefore be governed by the ac- cent ; but, in some instances, unaccented syllables unavoidably fall to the accented part of the measure. The most simple application of the words is where the dash can be so placed as to leave just as many syl- lables after it as there are notes in the cadence ; as in Selection 126, ver. 1. But this cannot often be effected without wholly disregarding the expression of the sense of the words; nor, if it could be done, is it in- deed desirable, since the cadences would become disagreeable from their monotony. Two syllables are necessarily, therefore, often given to one note, and, in a few instances, even three ; and upon the last note of the cadence, it has sometimes been necessary to put four syllables, when the last accented syllable of the clause was the fourth syllable from the end, as in the word testimonies. In a few cases, it has been necessary to make one syllable fill a measure ; but such syllables have all been distinguished by printing them in italic characters; as, the syllable for , in SeL 111, ver. 7. It is a rule generally laid down, to pronounce loved , hoped. , and the like, as two syllables, in reading the Scriptures, though they are con- tracted in secular discourse ; but the words in these Selections have been arranged according to the latter pronunciation, simply for the sake of rythm , except the word blessed , and such others as are never con- tracted. In some instances, however, the contracted syllable has been PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING. 389 wanted, and in such cases it is separated by a hyphen; as in Sel. 148, ver. 1. A similar case occurs in Sel. 70, ver. 2, line 2. Verses of three clauses occur occasionally, and the extra clause must be sung by repeating one of the strains of the chant. This is indicated by placing before one of the clauses a figure which numbers the strain to which it is to be sung. Some other irregularities are indicated in the same manner, the practice of which will occasion no difficulty. There are a few instances in which a distinct clause, as Amen and amen , Praise ye Jah, and the like, will be found to remain after the cadence is sung through ; and these should be sung by repeating a sufficient number of the last notes of the cadence. Rules for Chanting recommended in using this Work. [The figures in parentheses refer to the Examples on pages 394 and 395.] In singing the words to the chanting note, the utterance , pronuncia - t'o n, accent , emphasis , inflection , pauses and expression , should be the same as in deliberate reading. In reading or speaking, unimportant words occupy much less time in the utterance than important words, even though both be of but one syllable ; and in singing to the chanting note , the same relative duration should be carefully preserved. If there is a passing note in the chanting measure, sing to it the last syllable before the dash, if the syllable be unaccented ; but if accented or important, commence this syllable on the chanting note, and slur it on the passing note. / The above rule for singing to the chanting note ceases when we come to the cadence ; for the cadence should always “ be given in correct time, the beat of which can be felt.” Still, however, as much of the expression of reading or speaking should be given to the words of the cadence, as is consistent with correct time. , * But the last note of the cadence should not be regarded as having a fixed time. If the word which is sung to it is a single syllable, the sound may be protracted as far as the production of good effect may dic- tate (1) ; but if there falls to it more than one syllable, they should be uttered agreeably to the rule for singing to the chanting note, or nearly so (2). The measures of the cadences are generally made up of minims, and the application of the words is simple where there is a syllable to each minim, that is, two syllables to each measure, as before stated (1 ) ; though, in a few instances, the accented syllable may fall to the wrong part of the measure (38). When three syllables fall to a measure, they may be — 1 , the first and second accented or important, and the third not, — 2, the first accented, and the other two not, — 3, the first and third accented, and the second not, — or 4, the first and second unaccented, and the third accented. Four other cases are mathematically possible, but would be absurd in practice, and do not occur. In the first of these cases, where the first and second syllables are ac- cented, and the third unaccented, as the syllables all thine in-. Sel. 126, ver. 3, the first syllable must evidently be sung to the first minim of the measure, and the other two to the last (3) ; but the last minim must not -Pe sung as two crotchets, but as a pointed crotchet and quaver ; or rather, 390 PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING. in most instances, less tune than a quaver should be given to the unac- cented syllable, throwing it in slightly after the accented one (3 and 4, the pointed crotchet being indicated by a dot). In the second kind, where the first syllable is accented, and the other two not, the first is sung to the first minim, and the two others to the second minim as two crotchets ; as the syllables blow and the, Sel 136, ver. 7 (5, 6). But, though combinations of this kind are very common, yet there are few wherein the former of the two last syllables is not more accented and more important than the latter; as to in deeds to the , Sel. 126, ver. 7 ; and therefore a very great majority of the cases apparently falling under this class should be sung by making the last minim a pointed crotchet and quaver (7, 8). But when the three syllables of this class are made up of a word of two syllables accented on the first, and followed by an unimportant syllable, as chi dren of. Sel. 126, ver. 7, the word of two syllables should always be supg to the first minim, in the manner explained in the next paragraph (9, 10). In examples of the third class above named, where the first and third are accented, and the second unaccented, the unaccented syllable should be invariably sung with the first syllable to the first minim ; yet it should rarely receive the time of a quaver , but should be thrown in slightly after it; as the syllables joy of thy , Sel. 127, ver. 6, or acts of Je ver. 2 (11, 12). Words of three syllables accented on the first, as mtrciful , or the three last syllables of in -iquity, belong to this class, since the first syllable after an accent is less accented than the second : they should therefore be sung as here explained (13, 14). In the fourth case, where the first and second syllables are unaccented and the third accented, as in the Red , Sel. 133, ver. 3, the two first sylla- bles should be sung to the first minim, precisely as explained of the two unimportant syllables in case second above (15, 16). In some instances, as before stated, it has been impossible to avoid putting four syllables into one measure ; but these cases are few, not amounting to twenty in the whole work. Except four, they all consist of three syllables in the same word followed by another syllable ; qg> the three last syllables of a n-ticipate, Sel. 109. ver. 4, — of pros -peritu, SeT. 44, ver. 6, — and the words publisheth and comforted , in Sel. 65. In all such, the three syllables belonging to the same word should be sung to the first minim, and the following syllable to the second (19, 20) ; and several words so situated, as pitieth , reverenced, covenant , Israel , may be contracted and uttered nearly as two syllables (21, 22), which will much improve the effect. The four cases excepted above are the syl- lables heavens and up -, Sel. 91, ver 6, — solitary, Sel. 96, ver. 4 fieri into the, Sel. 42, ver 4, — and the three last syllables of con -tinually, Sel. 92, ver. 1. The first and second of these are given (17, 18) : in the third, into the should be sung to the second minim ; and in the fourth, the three first syllables should be contracted into two. The species of contraction just mentioned should be used in several oilier instances; as tow'rd for to'ward (not toward'), Sel. 124, ver. 5 (26, 27) ; psalCry for psaltery, Sel. 73, ver. 2 (2”) ; — so t/d oppressor for the oppressor, Sel. 10, ver. 4 ; th' upright, for the upright, Sel. 95 (23, 24) ; and many other cases, especially where a word ends with a vowel, and the next begins with a vowel : but care should be taken in pronouncing them, as the sound either of w or y is always implied in contractions of tie- latter kind (23, 24). The proper manner of singing the last note of the cadence has been PRINCIPLES W CHANTING, 391 before stated ; and it is only necessary to add, that the last accented syl- lable of a clause should be carefully made to fall on this last note (k 8 , 29), so as to preserve, as far as possible, the expression of correct read- ing : for example, Sel. 12*2, ver. 6, line 2, might have been pointed thus : — Save with thy right J hand and answer me; which would have injured the sense, as the last accented syllable is not me, but the first syllable of an-swer, and the phrase answer me conveys a unity of idea (34, 35). This proper expression and unity of idea is, in some instances, lost, for the want of a sufficient number of syllables in the clause, to apply to the cadence. Thus, in Sel. 22, ver. 2, line 2, the three last syllables, -viveth me , ought to fall to the last note (30) ; but this could not be done without placing the dash before thy, and making it fill the second meas- ure, that is, singing it to four crotchets in the treble; which was es- teemed a greater evil than the loss of expression. So in Sel. 112, ver. 6, taught me ought to fall to the last note (31) ; but then the two pre- ceding syllables must each fill a measure, and it may be doubted which is the better way. Some care will be found necessary in order to bring the last accented syllable upon the last note : and the case must always be decided by the proper manner of reading the clause, and not by the apparent importance or unimportance of the words. Indeed, this sylla- ble is often apparently a very unimportant word, a preposition, for ex- ample, followed by a word of one syllable ; as, to me , Sel. 4, ver 4, — icith me , Sel. 14, ver. 1, — against thee , Sel. 20, ver. 3, — -by it , Sel. 19, ver. 4, and b e-fore him , ver. 8, — also, Sel. 49 , ver. 3; 25, ver. 4 and 7 (32, 33) ; and many more : but prepositions so situated are evidently more fre- quently not accented. [The remaining examples (3G, 37, 36) are only a few particular instances of the more difficult application of the words.] These remarks proceed on the supposition that the cadences are made up of minims. Crotchets are a defect in them, inasmuch as they are an additional hindrance to the proper utterance of the words; and thougli they must, in some cases, vary the application of the foregoing princi- ples, jet they may be sung as a pointed crotchet and quaver, where the •effect would thereby be improved. The object in chanting is to express the sentiments of the words in musical taxes ; and, consequently, the first of these rules cannot be too carefully studied and followed. No one, whatever may be his merits as a singer, can give full effect to chanting, unless he is also a good reader. He must attend to the sentiments, feel them, and wish to express them musically. Many choirs assume the chanting note with the voice, and lead the several syllables to it very hastily, giving to each, as nearly as possible, the same time and the same force. Comment on this prac- tice is needless. The habit, unavoidably contracted in singing psalm tunes, of giving the same time to every syllable, whether important or unimportant, is also injurious to chanting, and must be carefully re- sisted. Sentences are comnosed not only of clauses , but of phrases con- sisting of two or three words. The following clause consists of three phrases ; — And in the same country , were shepherds , abiding in the field. Now, in reading, we make near!}' a pause, though not an actual suspen- sion of the voice, after each phrase. In chanting, these phrases should be carefully studied. But to follow the rules of good reading mechan- ically, will produce the same stiffness in chanting as in reading. Ease and expression are the things to be aimed at, and these rules, if is be- lieved, will be found to promote them. To utter the words with that spirit and those feelings which their sense seems calculated to inspire, 392 PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING. should be the highest aim. This is not the place for a dissertation on the character of the Psalms and other (usually styled) poetical parts of the Word, from which the Selections in this work are drawn. Viewed in their literal sense, they are calculated to excite the deepest emotions, whether of sublimity or of pathos, of exaltation or of humility, of comfort or of reproof, of confiding trust or of trembling hope, of joy or of sad ness, of prayer or of praise. Add to this, that we are taught that they are spirit and life ; that they are the medium through which the Divine Spirit flows into, and operates in the minds and hearts of men : still, it may be safely said, that all the sentiments which they can inspire in our hearts, may find their full expression, and experience full satisfac- tion in the chant. Of the Arrangement of the Parts in Choral Music. An ignorance has heretofore existed, and it is to be feared still exists, in this country, in regard to the proper relations of the parts in choral music. This may have originated in the custom of printing the tenor and alto on the treble staff ; for it has been supposed, that as the notes stood on the same place in the staff, they meant the same sound. But it, must never be forgotten, that the same note in the tenor and treble means a sound an octave lower in the tenor than in the treble: thus, in Chant 64, the first note of the second strain, both in the treble and tenor, is on C in the third space of the staff; but the C in the tenor means the C which is printed in a small note on the first leger line below the treble staff. An attempt has been made to exhibit the parts in their proper relations as to pitch, on pages 394 and 395. If a tenor voice were to sing the treble in that chant, it would sing the small black notes which are an octave below the treble. See, also, Glorification 36. The ac- companiment ought throughout to have been written as in these cases; but the close harmony , to be played with the right hand, was generally preferred, because it was thought that this book might be used on the piano-forte, where it would be desirable to have the left hand play octaves in the base. The treble should always be sung by females ; and never by men, unless from necessity : the alto should be sung by the lower female voices, and by boys ; and may be sung by very high men’s voices : the tenor , by the higher voices of men ; never by women : and the base, by the lower voices of men. This would seem to make it proper that the treble should be the upper staff, the alto next, the tenor next, and the base at bottom : and they should always be so printed, except where it is necessary to have the treble brought down next the base, for con- venience in playing the organ or piano-forte. Throughout this work, the base stands at the bottom, the treble next, the tenor next, and the alto at top , unless otherwise directed on the pages. Of the Time of the Cadence. The words of the recitative should be read very deliberately ; and accent and emphasis cannot be too carefully observed : but the custom lias been to sing the cadence much too slow. The time in which any Chant should be sung, must be governed entirely by the subject of the Selection ; but the rule for the cadence is, to sing the minims of the PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING. • 393 cadence in the same time as is given to an accented and emphatic word of one syllable in the recitative. General Remarks. Chants 81, 95, and 107, are in some degree peculiar, having two in- troductory notes before the chanting note. These two notes should be sung to one or more of the first syllables of the line, always passing to the chanting note by an unaccented syllable. Some have expressed a desire to have the Chants and Selections written out at large, with the words divided under the notes by lines, in the manner sometimes found in singing-books. The present work, so arranged, would make a large folio volume. Glorification 36 is a specimen of this ; and the matter, which there fills two pages, though printed in two lines, would fill but the half of one, if written like the other Selections. Though, in general, the Choruses alone will be sung in public wor- ship, yet a few Solos, Duets and Trios, have been inserted in the vol- ume ; but in no case, unless they were parts of the same Anthem as the Choruses, and were of sterling character. It is believed that these will be gladly received for social religious use; and the question, why they should not be sung in public, perhaps merits consideration. All the Anthems that have been thus fully inserted, are by Kent Glorifica- tions 6 and 7, and the intermediate Solos and Duet, are an Anthem of bis on Psalm 23. The reader will observe that, in some instances, the expressions in the Services, Selections and Glorifications, are not the same as in the common translation of the Bible. Indeed, nearly the whole of the con- tents of this book was revised, and much the largest part was carefully compared with the original, aided by the best helps that could be pro- cured. Much pains were taken to make the translation literal ; but no alterations were attempted, unless a manifest improvement could be made. The names Jehovah and Jah , heretofore translated Lord , have been invariably restored ; and wherever the word Lord now occurs in passages from the Old Testament, it stands for the Hebrew word which signifies a lord ; except in Glorifications 9 and 13, where the structure of the music did not allow a change in the words. Where the word Lord occurs in passages from the New Testament, it means the Lord Jesus Christ, or Jehovah manifested in the flesh, unless there is direct or implied reference to the Old Testament. When the word Jehovah is pointed for the vowel i in the original ( Jekovih ), it has been re- tained. A few verbal alterations have been made, for the better application of the words to the music ; such as changing the location of the words, or the insertion of do , did, and the like : and, in several instances, the Hebrew word Hallelujah is given, immediately followed by its signification in English, Praise ye Jak , for the sake of lengthen- ing the line. In the examples on pages 394 and 395, several clauses are mueh altered ; but this was necessary in order to shorten them so as to bring them within the width of the page. The Committee are under great obligations to Mr. Lowell Mason, one of the Professors in the Boston Academy of Music, not only for permission to copy several chants and choruses from his musical pub- lications ; but also for the loan of the Gregorian Chants, and two other collections of Chants published in England. 394 PRINCIPLES OF CHANTING!.
