Book Description
Excerpt from The Order for the Visitation and Communion of the Sick, and the Ministration of Private Baptism of Children: To Which Are Added, Psalms and Lessons Suitable for the Edification of Sick Persons, Selected and Arranged, With Some Suggestions as to Their Use at the Visitation of the Sick The Visitation of the Sick is, without question, one of the most difficult parts of that ministry which is committed unto us. While men are in health, we speak to them as it were from pulpits afar o '; but when the hand of God is heavy upon them we are brought very nigh, even to their bedsides. At such seasons the faithful Christian will be more than ever humble and penitent, severe in self-judgment, and tender of heart; then, we may haply find the careless and ungodly awakened and teachable and most, if not all, will then receive and hear us willingly, for the dread reality of the four last things, death and judgment, heaven and hell, presses fearfully upon them. And upon the faithfulness and discretion of our ministra tions at such times, a brother's eternal welfare may depend: we watch for his soul-how excellent an Office as they that must give account - how awful a responsibility and who is sufficient for these things Nevertheless, we must not therefore faint, but rather give all the more heed to fulfil our ministry, considering from Whom we have received it, and with the promise Of His continual presence. It will, however, be most profitable for us, often to think on these things, that thus we may keep ever in remembrance what great need we have, even beyond all other men, of unceasing prayer, study, and meditation, that by all the means in our power, we may stir up the gift of God which is in us.
