FOXCUOFT. 169 attended in Brattle- street, and preached by the sec. Xm. Pastors of the two congregations alternately. ' ^^^^^ There is indeed no express warrant for such an exercise in the christian scriptures ; and some have doubted the propriety of upholding the cus- tom. They have alleged, that it tends to bring the ordinance of preaching into contempt with some, by making it too frequent, and that its ef- fect is injurious to others, by inducing a belief, that some unusual, peculiar prepara...tion is neces- sary for commemorating the death of our Sa- viour. But it ought to be remembered, that an attendance on this lecture is by no means con- sidered an indispensable requisite for communion, on the following sunday ; and that any religious institution, which brings people voluntarily to- gether, naturally expands the mind, and can hardly be unfavourable to the progress of charity. In the case just mentioned, the effect of the lec- ture has been happy. It has contributed to the harmony of both the ministers and brethren of the two societies.
