Excerpt from A Hand-Book for Ruling Elders HE writer of this little treatise was ap pointed by Enoree Presbytery to prepare a manual for the use of ruling elders. The need for such a work was very apparent. Many of the churches held religious services only once a month, and several of them were vacant. Special demands were made upon the elders, and it was evident that the prosperity of these churches depended largely upon their fidelity. It was felt that a clearer and more enlarged conception of the office and duties of the elder was needed both by the members of the churches and the elders themselves. It was thought that a hand-book containing not only instruction, but also some optional forms and practical suggestions would be of great service. Several manuals have been pre pared for ministers, to assist them in the dis charge of their ministerial duties, and have proved helpful. Why should not our elders have something corresponding to aid them in the performance of their duties? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Council Meeting The following pages well illustrate how widely and beneficently the influence of an alert and wise presiding elder can be extended by conveying needed information and suggestion to all the church officers entitled to seats in the Quarterly Conference. The local traditions and customs of a circuit sometimes override the distinct provisions of the Discipline. The people may not perish for lack of spiritual knowledge; but the work of the Church sometimes lags or fails for the lack of business or legal knowledge, much of which can be gathered from a careful study of our form of Discipline. Church officers of every kind and grade should be familiar with the pages of that wonderful little book, and one excellent result of Brother Wilson's practical and pertinent suggestions in this pamphlet will be to send local preachers, stewards, trustees, and other officers to the Discipline itself, in which the following pages cannot fail to arouse an intelligent interest. The presiding eldership is a useful and indispensable arm of the service. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Ruling Eldership of the Christian Church The usefulness of our elders has often been pro longed in their families. Many of their children, enjoying the best of examples and training, have done credit to their parentage in their own good behaviour and success. As respects the church more especially, it might create surprise to learn how many of its elders are the sons of elders, and to what a large extent the roll of our ministry has derived its supplies fi'om the same source. Such remarks dis pose for commendation rather than for counsel, and fill with gratitude to Him who hath so cared for his church, in providing it with office-bearers after his own heart.

Excerpt from Elder-Moderatorship: A Discussion of the Elder-Moderator Overtures I. Ruling elders and ministers are not of the same scriptural order, though they have some functions in common. II. It is inexpedient to adopt the overtures now before the Church concerning the eligibility of ruling elders to the moderatorship. I agreed to discuss the scriptural questions involved, although the Assembly, in submitting the overtures, did not intend any investigation or change of the Bible basis of our church polity. In defending our system, I have tried to show that Jesus Christ, the antitype of prophets, priests and kings of the Jewish Church, became, when on earth, the visible Head of the Church, claiming all power in heaven and on earth; appointed his apostles, the first presbytery, to be his repre sentatives and witnesses, and sent them to preach and dispense the sacraments and ordination; they first chose a successor to Judas, to take part with them in this ministry and apostleship, and then began to preach and dispense holy ordinances; that they soon ordained Paul as an apostle and a preacher, and with him, Bar nabas as a minister; that Timothy, Titus, and others, were ordained ministers by the laying on of the hands of the presbytery; that ministers were preachers and rulers in unity of office, exercising rulership in the churches where they were pastors, and general rulership over all the churches, in virtue of their presbyterial ordination, authority and membership; that they and the churches they planted were the visible Church - superseding the Jewish economy and administration, which ceased to have any authority, as a visible organization and government in the Kingdom of God, and became the enemy of the Church of Christ, as it is to this day; that the apostles, and the ministers they ordained, appointed elders in every church, most probably the choice of the people, as in the election of the first deacons; that the parochial elders were only rulers, in conjunction with these preaching elders or ministers, in churches where there were pastors; that the func. Tions and duties of ministers and parochial elders were different - that the latter were rulers only, and that the office of the former, is rulership and preaching in unity; that ruling elders are representatives of the people in the church at home and as delegates to higher courts; that the duties of a moderator require the cise of ministerial functions, and, though a ruling elder could preside over some proceedings, it would lead to debate and confusion in deciding what he could do or could not do as moderator; that the overture, if adopted, would make our system a confusion and a contradiction, and that it is inexpedient to adopt it. This is the line of argument that I have pursued in the discussion. I ask the reader carefully to note that all Dr. Gray' 3 quotations of authorities, save one, have reference to the parity of the ministry as against prelacy, and no reference to the parity of ministers and ruling elders.

Excerpt from Qualifications and Duties of Ruling Elders in the Presbyterian Church But those who hear rule in the Church of Christ, should not only ascertain the gentrineness of their piety, but possess the graces of the Christian in more than their ordinary degree of perfection. Their piety should not only be real but conspi cuous. Without attempting to enumerate all the traits in which their exemplariness should be manifest, it may not be amiss to give prominence to a few.
