Mar Poitastrove, Pa., Tan., 1859. %Or 'the Presbyterian Banner and Urinate. Calvinism and the Love of Souls. A religion without strong and ardent love for last sinners, is not the religion of the Bible. It is not the religion-of the Son of God. , It is not the religion developed by the truth, as it is in Jesus. There may be a' 'religion, beautiful in form—imposing, through the trappings that may be thrown around it—and yet it may be without a heart to feel for the , perishing, or an eye to. weep over the miseries that sre coming upon them. Such was not the spirit of Jesus Christ,' Compassion for the miserable and needy, brought him from heaven to earth; and this made him, while here, a man of sorrows. His dross and all the wonders and sufferings that cluster around it, proclaim this to a dying world, in 'language so touch ing, that the hoiden heart should - be moved and melted, ' • " True religion' will lieqike 3esus 'in this respect. It will-have the'same mind that was in him. One of the • precious.: fruits that will hang from the tree of 'True,Relig fon, will be love of souls—loi , e not rudely for the pure mot holy, but for those in the mine of sin, &lido& thee verge of .everhisibing misery. l oly men of old -had , this love. Looking back to those who lived before the coming of the Son of Man, we may see *rivers of waters running ' down the eyes 'of iitie; because men kept.ncit •thelaw of God; and we may hear another. exilaiming,.." 0, that, my head were waters, that I might weep day and night for she slain of the daughters of my people 1" Turning the eye again to those oalled by the &vicar to propagate his religion, its may see thu same spirit ezenv plified in the most striking and affecting manner. One, not a whit behind the chief Of the Apostles, is heard saying, " I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart, for my brethren, my kinsmen accord ing to the flesh!' If Calvinism be of God, it will fill' the hearts of those who embrace it, with com passion for the lost. They will have ears that will be - quick to heir the cry for help which comes from the perishing. They', will . be found sighing and crying, because of the miserable condition of the multitudes, who ire living without that mark which will shield them from the destroying sword, of the ministers of God's avenging justice. And is not the truth contained in the Calvinistic system adapted, in its very nature, to inspire this feeling 7 It, in a sense peculiar to itself, opens up the human , heart, and shows its deep depravity. It reveals to 'the mind, in the clearest light, its carnal nature, its ebmity to God, its re bellion against his holy law, and the utter imposeibility that it earl love him, till it is renewed in all its powers. This system speaks not of man's innocency by nature, but shows that all are dead in trespasses and sins. If there is any view of the moral condi tion' of mankind which is adapted to awaken true and deep compassion for lost sinners, it is that given by Calvinism. It is ;ever crying, Lost I lost I all lost l It says, "There is none that doeth good, no, not one." And can this sad view of the whole race be continually before the mind, and the heart be wholly unmoved ? Will it awaken • no love for souls in the inesietSof those that have theemielves passed from death unto life ? Arminisns charge Calvinists with a want of compassion for souls. In the " Doctrinal Tracts of the Methodist Bpiscopal Church, we have this charge repeatedly made. On the 161st page, these lines may be found, in relation to one of the doctrines of the Cal vinistic system, viz., Predestination : " . And it as naturally inspires contempt or coldness toward those wham we suppose outcasts from God. 1 0, (but you say,) I suppose no particular man reprobated.' You mean, you would not, if you could, help it. You cannot help sometimes applying your gen eral doctrine to particular persons. The enemy of souls will apply it for you. You know how often he has done so. 4 But you rejected the thought with abhorrence.' True; as soon as you could. But how did it sour and sharpen your spirit, in the mean time I You well know it was not the spirit of love which 'y on then felt toward that poor sinner, whom you supposed or suspected, whether you would or no, to have been hated of God from eternity." Again, on page 165th, we have this language : "There fore you cannot, consistently with your principles, take any pains about their salva tion. Consequently, those principles directly tend to destroy your zeal for good works; for all , good works ; but particularly for the greatest of all, the saving of souls from death." Arminius himself deblared to the States of Holland, that Calvinism " hin dered sorrow for sin, took away all pious solicitude, and lessened the earneat desire of doing good.' things."---Srod of Dort, p. 134. • These passages show the light .id which Anti Calvinists view that system of which we are now speaking. In their estimation, it chills the hearts of God's children; and renders them callous and unfeeling, in view of the t perishing condition of the. ungodly. They have no longing• desires to enter, upon the work:of saving souls from death. In the present article, we wish to investi gate the truth of this ,opittion. We 'believe that it 'is most unfounded, and that the cause of: truth demande that this should be made to appear. Our appeal will be made to facts. Does the history of the world,,but patticularly the history of the Church, show that Calvinists have no lore for souls—that they have no compassion for those whose feet are• ready to slide into eternal •burnings? Are we to infer from this history that they are not troubled, as other ,Phristiatis ? Do they never weep in sedret plebes, oVer penitent friends and neighbors? Do they never' sigh; and cry because so manYl•know not God, and obey not' his will?, Do, they never clothe themselves in 'sackcloth, arid afflict their souls, because a decree has gone forth.from the court of heaven,.that "He that believeth not be damned?": Let facts answer these inquiries: As we are illustrating the effects, of Cal vinism, it cannot be deemed out of_ place if we should refer to Calvin-liiraself, for evi dence of the 'tendency of that, system of doctrines which bears his name. Had be no love for souls? Dr. Henry, his Hiographer, says : co As the breath of eternal life seems to breathe through the whole of this great man's undertakings, so is it most conspicuously discoverable in his profound compassion for souls r and , int is love for fallen humanity."—Vol. 1., p. 422. . In a letter to Margaret of Navarre, in allu sion to his office as a minister of the Gospel ' s Calvin says : " I should indeed bd too un grateful if I did not.prefer this condition to all the riches and honors of the world.— Dyer's Life of Calvin, p.-155. Rutherford; -in his , earliest years, hid his mind imbued with the prineiples of Calvin ism, and in after ,life preached them .with great power to his fellow-men. •And who has•manifested 'More lov4 for souls than this devoted servant of 'God? D'Aubigne, in his "Historical Recollections," says ':"Such "Such was his love for his flock, that often when walking ,about his, prison chamber, and standing - before 'the bare - of his window, Rutherford envied the lot of the swallows, free to fly to the church of Anworth." And why did he so ardently-.long lonee to flee like Et - bird to that church ? • Was itnot" that he niight'once moreleed the flock he so dearly loved'? In • one of his addreasesr to his people, he makes this animating and .affect ing appeal : "God is my witness that,your heaven would be as two heavens to me.' It is said of Alleine, that " he was infin itely and insatiably greedy of the conversion of lords." John Welch prayed seventor :eight hours each ,day. It was his custom to keep a cloak at hand, that•he might wrap himeielf in it when he rose in the night His wife, finding him on the floor weeping, would; at times, remonstrate with.him: • His reply:to her, on one occasion, was, "0, woman ! I have the souls of three thousand to answer fir, and I know , not how it is with many of them." If -any man ever felt the influence'of the : Calvinistic system; that man was President, Ed wards. The whole of his , spiritual life originated in its truths, and on it' be sus tained that life. On this he meditated in his study, and in defence of this he wrote some of the most masterly productions that, the human mind has ever originated; and, when in the pulpit, his sermons, were weighty expositions of the same system. And had he no compassion'for souls ? In his farewell sermon to the people of Northamp6 ton, addressing himself to those, in a Christ less state, he says, "Your consciences bear me witness, that while I had opportunity I have not ceased to' warn you, and set before you your danger. I have studied to repre pent the misery and necessity• of your ale cumstances in the clearest manner possible. I have tried all ways that I could think of, tending to awaken your consciences, and make you sensible of the necessity of your improving your time, and being speedy in flying, from the wrath to come, and thor ough in the use of means for your escape .and safety. I have diligently endeavored to find out and use the most powerful motives to persuade you to take care for your own welfare and salvation. I have ,not only en deavored to awaken you, that you might be moved with fear, but I have used my utmost endeavors to win you; I have sought out acceptable words, that, if possible, I might prevail upon you to forsake sin and turn to God, and accept of Christ as your Saviour and. Lord. I have spent my , strength very much in these things." It is well known that Whitfield adopted thw Calvinietio creed, and that he preached under' its influence. And what was the effect in his case ? Did it turn his heart to steel, and make him indifferent about the perishing condition of sinful men ? "The Priest, Puritan, and Preacher, says : "'He had an intense feeling for souls, and this feeling had a vent in tears. Of all the in gredients of his preaching, nothing, I- ens pent, was so powerful as this." In thinking of those slumbering in their graves, whose memories are dear because of their eminent compassion for souls, the mind most naturally fastens upon Samuel Davies. How ardent his love for the needy and per ishing I How it glows in his sermons, and in his life of toil and sacrifice ! In his very able letter to the Bishop of London, after describing the sad condition of the Colonies, in a moral and religious point of view,. , he uses the following language: "This thought, my lord, is 'so far from being agreeable to me, that it at times reeks me with agonies of companion and zeal intermingled; and oould I entertain that unlimited charity whioh Julie so many of- my neighbors into a serene stupidity, it would secure me from many a melancholy hour, and make my life below a kind of anticipation of heaven. I can boast of no high attainments, my lord; I am se mein and insignificant . a• creature as yourlordship can well conceive me to be; but I dare profess I cannot be an uncoil .

And hence, my lord,, it is, I consume My strength and, life in such great fatigues in this jangling, ungrateful Colony." Tbe life of Dr. Nettleton affords another illustration of our' :subject, and refutes,'in a moat - triuMphant Manner, the ebarue . which is sometimes -'brought against da . .l"inism, that it makes , those - who, embrace it, " euiti, carnal, and', stupid "—that it takes aWarall pious •solicitude about the spiritual condition trid of our fellow men. He loved the dop e. of grace with an ardent love. He embrarod them most cordially. He rested on thPem all his own hopes of salvation. And seelhe , effect in his, life ! What love •of soulsl tl What longing for the salvation of, sinners, did he manifest I In him was witnessed no wild enthusiasm,, no trickery, no extrava gauce in Manner or matter; an' ism' pressible yearning of soul over impenitent sinners, which made him solemn, earnest, and powerful in his appeals to sinners from the,pulpit, and from house to house. -And. Whit - Was the result?:Did not Ged ' give him hundreds- of seals to his, ministry? ;And then a new source of solicitude opened up• hiin in these multitudes that were converted throne)! his; instrumentality. It is reeorded'that hmearriedtheir names with him—thought about them often, and prayed for, them much. Calvinism has had few abler expounders than Dr. Chalmers. Many an audience has been• entranced , by his eloquence, and , Many a child of God fed and modiforted, by. his pious counsels. He was distinguished in, many waye, and for many, things, but .in nothing more than'for his strong attachment to Calvinism, and his ardent hive for his great work, as :a minister of the Gospelr:-the' work of seeking .the salvation of •lost-souls: , Never was he more in his element, than when going with the message of salvation, to the poor and the outcast. Mr. Bruce, in his funeral sermon, 'says of him tc From therday that he knew the grace Of God in - truth, his life became 'a consecrated thing, himself a living sacrifice.' It was 6 Cor bett '—a gift—the life of one,who knew that he 4vais not his 'own, that' he had been puichased by, another for his serviee. The whole edergy of his Mfghty spirit, the'whole, capacities of his gifted mind, the whole warmth 'of his loving heart, were gladly 'ded icated newsnd better Mister- ,, --thrown unreservedly into his cause.", Sacrifiewin' the eause , of Christ, are gen erally considered one of the best tests of love and , compassion for sinners. It was this that Christ himself showed the strength, of his compassion. He was rich, yet for`our saes he-.became poor, that we' through• his poverty might become rich. It was' thus that Paul showed his love to his - unbelieving brethren, and for the Gentile 'world. The sacrifices he made, and the trials he enduxed I for them, were better evidence of his strong desire that they might be' saved, - thin professions on his part. And have Cal'vinists' made no sacrifices for the good of others? Can none rise up and call them blessed,. - be-. cause they have been instrumental in , bring , - in'g, them to a saving knowledge ofj,ijesus Christ ? Let us turn our faces to 'the great American West. How many. there niay, be , found who hold to this system-"-of.doctrine, toiling for the eternal good of the soulirthat are 'there congregating ! Compared* want, a sickly climate, and all the hardships inci dent to a new country ; do not deter them from carrying to those who .ate , famishing, the ' , breathe; life. Is not Calvinism going through all the W'est,, preaching Christ and him crucified ? Is not its love for souls manifested in its hundre,ds of ministers and churches r its thousands of communicants, its Corporteurs and its books, its Sabbath Schools,. RS printing:presses, its thousands of open fountains of spiritual and, moral heal ing, and its standards lifted up against the flood of iniquity that is coming upon the land ? Thoile trains of soul-savinginfluenees have not: been put in operation, without many and.great sacrifices. Let himi who imagines thatealvinists have no compassion for perishing sinners, go :and , mingle in , their -religious assemblies. , Let him -hear the ambassadors lor 'Christ, " as they beseech sinners to' be recoiaeiled"to God. Id what awful terms they unfold`the threatenings of God ! How they entreat, persuade, and expostulate I How, at times, their hearts seem to break, and their eyes to fill with tears, as the fearful condition of im penitent sinners flashes before them, kali its terrible reality ! Let him 'go and enter the place of social prayer. Will he never infer from the petitions that are offered, that the condemnation of the wicked lies heavily upon the hearts of those assembled there ? Do their voices never falter with deep erne tion ? Do no tears flow ? Are no sighs uttered ? Boisterous - singing, boisterous praying, unseemly and 'unseasonable noise . and shouting,.. may not be there ; but is there not a silencer at times, • more expres sive of deep emotion, and heartfelt interest in the condition of the ungodly, `than' mere noise *or wild excitement ever indicated'? Let him, then, 'pass from closet to 'closet, when Calvinistic Christians are -alone with God. Will he there see no wrestling with the. Angel of the Covenant, for the outpour ing of the Spirit ?—no earnest pleading of his promises in reference to the salvation of the lost ? Are there none lying low in the dust of humility because of the languishing con dition of Zion ?—because her gates are des olate, and BO few come up to her solemn feasts ? An unusually large Convention has• lately been in session, to consult about the` inter ests of Zion. All its members were thor; ougbly Calvinistic., And was not one of the prominent characteristics of that Convention, love for souls? Its call originated in this, and all its meetings were warmed and ani mated by this feeling This beamed in the countenances of its members; was mani fested in their prayers, their sermons, their addresses, and the means employed`for the reviving of God's people, and the conversion I of sinners. In view of all these things, can the con clusion be drawn that Calvinists have no bowels of compassion for impenitent men and women ? M..N.

It; would -almost seem as-. if Napoleon's desigesa,re now in ; concert with- Russia, and that not in reference to „Italy, hut rather with a view to the;disnieinber. , went of Turkey.
