"God is my record howgreatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ." What the coming year is tobring forth who can tell?

2 There is plainly a weight lying on the spirits of all good men,and a looking for some strange work of judgment upon this land. There is a need nowto ask that solemn question -- "If in the land of peace wherein thou trustedst, theywearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?"Those believers will stand firmest who have no dependence upon self or uponcreatures, but upon Jehovah our Righteousness. We must be driven more to ourBibles, and to the mercy-seat, if we are to stand in the evil day. Then we shall be ableto say, like David The proud have had me greatly in derision, yet have I not declinedfrom Thy law. Princes have persecuted me without a cause, but my heart standeth inawe of Thy word.

3 It has long been in my mind to prepare a scheme of Scripture Reading , in which asmany as were made willing by God might agree, so that the whole Bible might be readonce by you in the year, and all might be feeding in the same portion of the greenpasture at the same am quite aware that such a plan is accompanied with manyDANGERS.(1.)Formality. We are such weak creatures that any regularly returning duty is apt todegenerate into a lifeless form. The tendency of Reading the Word by a fixed rulemay, in some minds, be to create this skeleton religion. This is to be the peculiar sinof the last days Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof. Guard against this.

4 Let the Calendar perish rather than this rust eat up your souls.(2.)Self-righteousness. Some, when they have devoted their set time to Reading ofthe Word, and accomplished their prescribed portion, may be tempted to look atthemselves with self-complacency. Many, I am persuaded, are living without anyDivine work on their soul unpardoned and unsanctified, and ready to perish whospend their appointed times in secret and family devotion. This is going to hell with alie in their right hand.(3.)Careless Reading . Fewtrembleat the Word of God. Few, in Reading it, hear thevoice of Jehovah, which is full of majesty. Some, by having so large a portion, maybe tempted to weary of it, as Israel did of the daily manna, saying Our soulloatheth this light bread; and to read it in a slight and careless manner.

5 This wouldbe fearfully provoking to God. Take heed lest that word be true of you Ye said,also, Behold what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the Lord ofHosts. Page 3(4.)A yoke to heavy to bear. Some may engage in Reading with alacrity for a time, andafterwards feel it a burden, grievous to be borne. They may find consciencedragging them through the appointed task without any relish of the heavenly food. Ifthis be the case with any, throw aside the fetter, and feed at liberty in the sweetgarden of God. My desire is not to cast a snare upon you, but to be a helper of there be so many dangers, why propose such a scheme at all? To this I answer, thatthe best things are accompanied with danger, as the fairest flowers are often gatheredin the clefts of some dangerous precipice.

6 Let us weighTHE ADVANTAGES.(1.)The whole Bible will be read through in an orderly manner in the course of a year. TheOld Testament once, the New Testament and Psalms twice. I fear many of you never read thewhole Bible ; and yet it is all equally Divine, All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, andis profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and instruction in righteousness, that theman of God may be perfect. If we pass over some parts of Scripture, we shall be incompleteChristians.(2.)Time will not be wasted in choosing what portions to read. Often believers are at a loss todetermine towards which part of the mountains of spices they should bend their steps.

7 Herethe question will be solved at once in a very simple manner.(3.)Parents will have a regular subject upon which to examine their children and servants. Itis much to be desired that family worship were made more instructive than it generally mere Reading of the chapter is often too like water spilt on the ground. Let it be read byevery member of the family before-hand, and then the meaning and application drawn out bysimple question and answer. The Calendar will be helpful in this. Friends, also, when theymeet, will have a subject for profitable conversation in the portions read that day. Themeaning of difficult passages may be inquired from the more judicious and ripe Christians,and the fragrance of simpler Scriptures spread abroad.

8 (4.)The pastor will know in what part of the pasture the flock are feeding. He will thus beenabled to speak more suitably to them on the Sabbath; and both pastor and elders will be ableto drop a word of light and comfort in visiting from house to house, which will be morereadily responded to.(5.)The sweet bond of Christian love and unity will be strengthened. We shall be often led tothink of those dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, here and elsewhere, who agree to join withus in Reading those portions. We shall oftener be led to agree on earth, touching something weshall ask of God. We shall pray over the same promises, mourn over the same confessions,praise God in the same songs, and be nourished by the same words of eternal Murray M cheyne .
