ians VI. 5-7: Servants, [dou=loi,] be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your hearts as unto Christ: not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and notChrist, doing the will of God from the heart; with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men. Doing the will of Gold — with good will. We must certainly understand that it was the duty of those slaves to give both assent and consent to their condition, as a thing coming to them in the order of God's providence, and pleasing to him; and therefore serve their masters with the same willing obedience, because therein their understandings; and hence, cheerfully submitting to their providential condition as from the Lord, they obeyed their masters in singleness of heart as unto Christ. They submitted, as any other good man submits, with consent as well as assent to his providential condition, and goes forth to the duties of that condition with

blic or in private, declaring the relation of master and slave to be sinful! But, on the contrary, Paul's denunciation.--1 Tim. VI. 3--of the theachers of abolition doctrines, that they consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, is sufficient reason to believe that he was always understood to approve of the relation, and to condemn in express terms all attempts to abolish it as a duty of the religion which he taught. And certain it is, that this relation is made the subject of some of his most eloquent allusions, and the basis of some of his most instructive parables: One is your master, even Christ, Matt. XXIII. 10: Good master, what shall I do? Mark x. 17: No man can serve two masters, Matt. VI. 24--are specimens of the former; whilst the parable, Matt. XIII. 24-28, And the servants said, Wilt thou that we go and gather them up? --of the vineyard, Matt. XXI.; of the talents, Matt. XXV.; and others of a similar nature, are striking examples of th

g threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven. Ephesians VI. 9. He hath enjoined upon servants to serve their masters in singleness of heart as unto Christ, with good will doing service as to the Lord, and not to men. Masters are then commanded to do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening; that is, carefuurselves and your slaves. And ye masters, do the same things unto them: that is, as the context shows, serve their interests faithfully, and that for the sake of Christ, as they are required to serve your commands faithfully, and that for the sake of Christ. But how may you do this? You should provide for them the means of puChrist. But how may you do this? You should provide for them the means of public religious instruction. The owner of a large plantation of slaves should charge himself with the expense of a minister of the gospel for his slaves. Smaller plantations should unite to employ the services of a minister. The owners of still smaller plantations in thinly settled communities of whites, should see that the usua
