" It is a solemn truth, but one which the Bible utters, that the eternal happiness of men is sus- pended upon their receiving the Gospel thus preached in Christ's name. There is no one thing they are more bound to do than this. They may quarrel with God's ministers, and quarrel they may with God's truth, but this does not relax the bond. They may think little of the ministerial office ; but this does not re- lieve them. Nothing is little which is of God's appointment. There is a reality in the ...minis- terial commission ; and though we claim for it no magical influence, ancjiione of the authority of the civil power, yet is it one of those ele- ments of influence and of strong moral power with which God himself has invested the am- bassadors of his truth and grace. It stands upon a sure foundation, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. It cannot be a w^eak and insignificant agency. There is power in the pulpit, when girt round by such a rock as this. 7 CHAPTER IX. THE PULPIT ASSOCIATED WITH THE POWER OF GOD.
