Section LXVIII

Aid to the Gospel

One of the most obvious duties which you owe to the Church, is the sustaining of gospel worship and ministry, by all means within your reach. K all the members of a communion are true of heart in regard to this point, the work will probably go forward Buccessfally, however small the number. By enrolling yourself in the band, you have pledged yourself to take your share of the burdens. More may be justly expected of you than of the world. The support of the pastor, especially if the flock is small, should weigh on your heart. And every undertaking for building up the spiritual house, should have your help and your prayers. Enter the ranks with the resolution to be a working member.
