Excerpt from The Parable of the Fig-Tree Explained and Applied: A Sermon, Preached in St. Andrew's Church, Halifax, on Wednesday, 1st January, 1823
The immortal nature and final destiny of man carry our views and prospects far beyond this transitory and perishin scene of existence, to a state of never ending duration; to objects of the utmost interest and magnitude, to the mansions oi' joyous felic'i'ty, and 'the shades of unutterable misery and we. Ere the present fleeting life the measure of our existence, were the soul to sink into annihilation at the death of the bodg', were there no hereafter to provide for; then we inig t safel pursue that path, which appetit but and inc ination recommends, without any a future reckoning to arrest our tour enjoyments': we might eat to-m'orrow We shall die. But when we look forward, 'when we extend odr views beyond the present nor-t row span of duration, ctemi burst: in upon: our minds in, all its reality and tn all its importance, 'claims us as the subjects of its endless reign; and'holds out every mini to influence, if any thing can possibly influence, the opes and fears, the desires and expec blind and depraved mortals as our selves. We behold a 'life of holiness and piety termianting in joy unspeakable and full of glory, and life of vice and immorality ending in weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth. For the connection between our randurt in time, and our condition in eter~ nity, is very close and intimate, and ought to be con stoutly am habitually present to our minds: as we now sow we shall hereafter reap; He that soweth to the flesh, shall of the llcsh reap corruption; but he that soweth to tha Spirit, shall oi'the Spirit reap life everlasting. By our thou hts, by our words, and by our actions in the present'iii'c, we shall be justified or condemned at last. Time is the stream in which we are all hastening downwards into the ocean of eternity, and the msnncr in which we mark and i prove its rapid movements, redeem what is past arid spend what is present, will determine the nature of our future and everlasting condition. Day and night, and the regular revolution of the seasons, divide it into separate portions; each of which is well fitted to teach us some salutary lesson. Every morning that dawns, and every evening that darkens around us, ought to awaken the most solemn and devout medita tions in our souls. T he beauties of the Opening spring, the lusuriance of summer, the richness and abundance of autumn, and even the tremendous blasts of winter, communicate the most pleasing and profitable instruo tion to an intelligent and pious mind: and the com; mencement of every new year especially summons us to serious reflection, by reminding us that one stage of our earthldy career is finished, that the period of repentance an of hope is drawing nearer, and nearer to a close, that. The day and the hour is not far distant, when we, like our fathers, shall go the way whence we shall not return.

Excerpt from The Parable of the Fig-Tree Explained and Applied: A Sermon, Preached in St. Andrew's Church, Halifax, on Wednesday, 1st January, 1823
Via 7,ther. The year which has now closed. Is gone for ever, and curried with it some of our nearest and dearest friends to the house appointed for all living; and the year which has flust commenced, calls upon each of us to number our ays, to attend to the warn ing which the silent but rapid movement of time suggests, and prepare to meet our God. Who can foresee all the chan es that may happen even during that short period? Ay we not expect that it will carv ry some, perhaps many now resent, into an eternal state? And as we are uncerta n who are the destined subjects of the lting of terrors, is it not necessary, is it not prudent, that each one. Should make the applica~ tion to himself 1 For what the Saviour says unto one he says unto all 3 Warm.
