It was no small thing that he did iu establish ing the passover. it enables the prodigal to return to his father’s house with a welcome that he can see feel and taste with present and fu ture profit, because it brings afresh to the minds of his believing chil dren his great sacrifice whereby he made us free, through the atoning merits of his blood, therefore we should do this as he has commanded in remembrance of him and also with desire as he did for all of his acts are worthy of emulation, there is a deal of meaning in thg word desire, it was his own words to express the depth and meaning and we should thus be mindful to do it with desire and remembrance that it may live and grow and become more and more sacred in the hearts of those who partake in his name, we believe that it is intended that every Christian believer should observe this ordi nance with unity of feeling and unity of purpose, for by it and through it we observe an ordinance and obey a command which will ultimately give to its keepers a faith that will enable them to enjoy a foretaste here, and finally will enable them to sit down with him, who established it here, and partook with desire iu his fath ers house where he lias gone to pre pare a place for all those who are faithful to observe apd do this in re jnembrance of him, thus we will see that it is no small thing, for it gives pleasures in this life and promise in the life to come, where the pertec tion of joy is seen felt and known as jt is real and not imaginary in the abode of our Father which art in Heaven. * *• Covington, Ga., Sept, If), ’B9, NOTICE To Debtors and Creditors.
