DECEASED WIFE'S SISTERS BILL.

The New Testament does not teach that it is lawful for a brother to marry his brother's widow.

There is no warrant for mating law for marriage with a brother to his brother's widow. All knowledge is handed down. The Scripture gives true knowledge. It is the role to form all laws in accordance with the role of God's Commandment. There is no rule, no example in the New Testament for marriage with a brother to bis brother's widow. - The spoken word, the law, and the will, the New Testament agree and constitute. It is the law to follow our Saviour's will, the New Testament. People must attend to what the authorities teach, which is to take care that the law bears in all they do. If we do what is lawful and right we save our souls alive. The powers tEafc be are appointed to take proper care and enforce, law, and take care that the law- is obeyed.' We are taught by the Scripture that our Saviour remained one night in communion with Heaven, and the Scripture was laid down, brought perfect, set complete, sealed, fettled in Heaven. Whilst our Saviour was in communion with Heaven the Heaven dosed. The Scripture is complete. Sacred law should not be set out of the rule of God* commandment. If law was set and

iiotis accordance With the role of Gods commandment ifc would be man's law, not power and strength in. To tat law out of the rale of the Scripture would cause people Ito trespass upon the order. We should act with a right sense in all we do. To ' walk out of the rule of God's commandment ia going to an extreme, and may be said to be wandering at large. It ia not tight to do anything that will not a«ree iin the rale of the Scripture. The Deceased Wife's Sister Bill will not form and stand in sound doctrine does not constitute The spirit and the lawmake known J the will of God. There being no law, no warrant in the Scripture to jjive right to a brother to marry his brother s widow. It would be being lawless for a brother to marry his brother's widow. It would blaspheme the doctrine of Christ. It would be treating with contempt Clod's Word. The ! will, the New Testament, if -we follow we are promised life hereafter. The new covenant is the agreement with promise. "We are bound by our Christian oaths. The principle the Deceased Wife's Sister Bill is set upon is away from God's Commandment. The Bill stands out of power. The Deceased Wife's Sister Bill is made up of words not j having power and law in them. The table of marriage ia set in accordance with the rule of God's Commandment. The table is brought by commandment. It is not seemly and it does not make good order tor a brother to marry hie brother's widow. Sacred order should be set in sound doctrine. No order should be set out of rule, not out of the rule of Scripture. According to the law in the Articles itwonld meet her Majeaty'a displeasure to set church order out of sound doctrine. To set order out of true rule would be off the prin-. ciple and away from God's Commandment. Out of order would make dust upon the table. It would make a dirty floor. It would reverse and upset true order. To set order wrong, the world would be destroyed : the world would fall. It would cause persons to trespass upon the order: it would trample under foot the Son of God. The principle of the Bill will not agree in power, and not in the plan, and not in the set that I speak from. The Bill would spoil and break sacred order. Cursed is the man that would set his neighbour astray. The Deceased Wife's Sisters Bill does not agree and form in the Crown. The Deceased Wife's Sietere Bill will not agree in the person; will not set, in agreement ; will not stand in order, in Christ. The New Testament is sacred. The spoken law rules throughout the New Testament. If you read and take the understanding from the Bible you will find that the agreement is, that the whole duty of man is to obey the law and the Commandments. If we do not act in the agreement of power we shall not see God. If we do what is right God is with us.

■ If we cross the spirit we shall not be in agreement. We should make it a rule to agree in God's Word. We should allow the truth to hold. Truth should be in all. The first and great commandment in the lsw teaches to honour His Holy Name and His Word and to serve true.

It would not be being faithful, not true to trust, if the authorities set persons wrong and set what ia false.

The authority will not bear what is not lawful.

God's will should be our will. Subdue to that perfect will. Walk in God's Uw and commandment. What the Devil or man works against should be brought to naught.

It is the main point to keep the faith. Act up to the Christian belief, which ia to do what is right, and we shall be saved. We may not act of ourselves. We may not take too much upon ourselves.

By; comparing the Deceased Wife's Sister's Bill by the rule of God's Commandment it is seen that the principle the Deceased Wife's Sister's Bill stands upon falls out of power, out of Crown order.

The Scripture charges persons to keep the Commandments whole.

The Deceased Wife's Sister's Bill stands a step off the rule of God's Commandment*. It is the rule to correct ourselves if we find that we are not right. Acknowledge that God knowe beat. Acknowledge God in all. Eve disobeyed the Commandment, and the wprld was destroyed.

If law was set wrong, the order, the design would fall. To set word wrong would disarrange true order, and the people would walk away from the Commandment.

To walk away from the Commandment would be walking out of knowledge. To act by the Deceased Wife's Sister Bill would break God's commandment.

To read a sacred service to join persons in marriage would not bind the persons if the persons were not justified in marrying. To pass law giving right to persons to do what is not, lawful, would not be being faithful, it would be putting stumbling blocks in a person's way. It would disarrange true order.. Upset the order, and destroy the world. The law I have no doubt would be to behead, if persons remove the;order,that is set in the Prayer Book of the Church of England. - If persons stand true by the Articles in the Church Prayer Book it is being loyaL Lot's wife turned her head after she was commanded not to do so. If a person takes a wrong thought the devil is in him. If it is not right for a brother to marry his deceased wife's sister, and if a brother does marry, he does not abb in a right spirit. It is in the spirit that a person is not right. • The Artioles in the Church Prayer Book in his Majesty's declaration, states that no alteration may be made in the Order in the Church Prayer Book except in Convocation. Law respecting sacred order and standing order should not be passed by a majority by the House of Parliament, or by a majority of jpeople. Law respecting sacred order should be set by the Ecclesiastical Body when in Convocation.

The Articles in the Church Prayer are set true and exact. The Articles stand in true standing order. The United Church of England and Ireland is the Established Church. The Articles in the Church Prayer Book are set in accordance With true rule. The whole service in the Church Prayer Book is set by sacred rule. The whole service in the Church Prayer Book is set in truth. The whole order, in the Church Prayer Book rules upon the table. The whole order in the Church Prayer Book is set in sound doctrine. The service in the Church Prayer Book is a perfect set: a true order. The table of marriage ie upon us the last leaf in the Church Prayer Book. His Majesty's declaration <and the rale of the Articles in the Church Prayer Book, hold the services in the Church Prayer Book exact. The law in the Articles rule throughout the prayer book. To break into a perfect order would blaspheme, would spoil, The service in the Church. Prayer Book is complete. The whole order in the Church Prayer Book makes a complete set order. The authority will not bear what is off the principle. The Christian rule is to be true in word and deed. , It is the law not to be wrong in thought, word or deed. To add to, or take from the Book of Life, we are told that we shall receive all the plagues that are written in the Book of Life.

The Deceased Wife's Sister Bill, if persons act by the Bill, will break God's commandment, and break in the services in the Churcn Prayer Book, and will be trespass upon the Order. Dead in law, false, and it will blaspheme the doctrines of Christ. I am, yours &c, Whuam Aethxtb Gbay. July 24th, 1893.
