BEINGACALENDARFORREADINGTHROUGHTHEWORDOFGODINAYEAR
MY DEAR FLOCK,--Theapproachofanotheryearstirsupwithinmenewdesiresforyour salvation,andforthegrowthofthoseofyouwhoaresaved."Godismyrecordhow greatlyIlongafteryouallinthebowelsofJesusChrist."Whatthecomingyearisto bringforthwhocantell?Thereisplainlyaweightlyingonthespiritsofallgoodmen, andalookingforsomestrangeworkofjudgmentuponthisland.Thereisaneednow toaskthatsolemnquestion--"Ifinthelandofpeacewhereinthoutrustedst,they weariedthee,thenhowwiltthoudointheswellingofJordan?"
Thosebelieverswillstandfirmestwhohavenodependenceuponselforupon creatures,butuponJehovahourRighteousness.Wemustbedrivenmoretoour Bibles,andtothemercy-seat,ifwearetostandintheevilday.Thenweshallbeable tosay,likeDavid–“Theproudhavehadmegreatlyinderision,yethaveInotdeclined fromThylaw.”“Princeshavepersecutedmewithoutacause,butmyheartstandethin aweofThyword.”
IthaslongbeeninmymindtoprepareaschemeofScripturereading,inwhichas manyasweremadewillingbyGodmightagree,sothatthewholeBiblemightberead oncebyyouintheyear,andallmightbefeedinginthesameportionofthegreen pastureatthesametime.
Iamquiteawarethatsuchaplanisaccompaniedwithmany
DANGERS.
(1.) Formality.–Wearesuchweakcreaturesthatanyregularlyreturningdutyisaptto degenerateintoalifelessform.ThetendencyofreadingtheWordbyafixedrule may,insomeminds,betocreatethisskeletonreligion.Thisistobethepeculiarsin ofthelastdays–“Havingaformofgodliness,butdenyingthepowerthereof.” Guardagainstthis.Letthecalendarperishratherthanthisrusteatupyoursouls.
(2.) Self-righteousness.–Some,whentheyhavedevotedtheirsettimetoreadingof theWord,andaccomplishedtheirprescribedportion,maybetemptedtolookat themselveswithself-complacency.Many,Iampersuaded,arelivingwithoutany Divineworkontheirsoul–unpardonedandunsanctified,andreadytoperish–who spendtheirappointedtimesinsecretandfamilydevotion.Thisisgoingtohellwitha lieintheirrighthand.
(3.) Carelessreading.–Few tremble attheWordofGod.Few,inreadingit,hearthe voiceofJehovah,whichisfullofmajesty.Some,byhavingsolargeaportion,may betemptedtowearyofit,asIsraeldidofthedailymanna,saying–“Oursoul loatheththislightbread;”andtoreaditinaslightandcarelessmanner.Thiswould befearfullyprovokingtoGod.Takeheedlestthatwordbetrueofyou–“Yesaid, also,Beholdwhatawearinessisit!andyehavesnuffedatit,saiththeLordof Hosts.”

"ThyWordisverypure;thereforeThyservantlovethit."
(4.) Ayoketoheavytobear.Somemayengageinreadingwithalacrityforatime,and afterwardsfeelitaburden,grievoustobeborne.Theymayfindconscience draggingthemthroughtheappointedtaskwithoutanyrelishoftheheavenlyfood.If thisbethecasewithany,throwasidethefetter,andfeedatlibertyinthesweet gardenofGod.Mydesireisnottocastasnareuponyou,buttobeahelperofyour joy.
Iftherebesomanydangers,whyproposesuchaschemeatall?TothisIanswer,that thebestthingsareaccompaniedwithdanger,asthefairestflowersareoftengathered inthecleftsofsomedangerousprecipice.Letusweigh
THEADVANTAGES.
(1.) ThewholeBiblewillbereadthroughinanorderlymannerinthecourseofayear.–The OldTestamentonce,theNewTestamentandPsalmstwice.Ifearmanyofyouneverreadthe wholeBible;andyetitisallequallyDivine,“AllScriptureisgivenbyinspirationofGod,and isprofitablefordoctrine,forreproof,forcorrection,andinstructioninrighteousness,thatthe manofGodmaybeperfect.”IfwepassoversomepartsofScripture,weshallbeincomplete Christians.
(2.) Timewillnotbewastedinchoosingwhatportionstoread.Oftenbelieversareatalossto determinetowardswhichpartofthemountainsofspicestheyshouldbendtheirsteps.Here thequestionwillbesolvedatonceinaverysimplemanner.
(3.) Parentswillhavearegularsubjectuponwhichtoexaminetheirchildrenandservants.–It ismuchtobedesiredthatfamilyworshipweremademoreinstructivethanitgenerallyis. Themerereadingofthechapterisoftentoolikewaterspiltontheground.Letitbereadby everymemberofthefamilybefore-hand,andthenthemeaningandapplicationdrawnoutby simplequestionandanswer.Thecalendarwillbehelpfulinthis.Friends,also,whenthey meet,willhaveasubjectforprofitableconversationintheportionsreadthatday.The meaningofdifficultpassagesmaybeinquiredfromthemorejudiciousandripeChristians, andthefragranceofsimplerScripturesspreadabroad.
(4.) Thepastorwillknowinwhatpartofthepasturetheflockarefeeding.–Hewillthusbe enabledtospeakmoresuitablytothemontheSabbath;andbothpastorandelderswillbeable todropawordoflightandcomfortinvisitingfromhousetohouse,whichwillbemore readilyrespondedto.
