How is it we see so little recovery of those who have fallen, or strayed away from Christ ? Because we feel so little grief for their sin. We fail to feel it as if it were our own; nor do we feel that unless it had been for God's upholding grace, we ourselves might be in the very thing or condition which we condemn in him. Consider the temptation that has overtaken him as your own, and remember your own weakness; it will enable you to "eat the sin-offering" (Lev. 6:26), and be better able to help him to his feet, and secure deliverance.

" Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted,"

"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ" (Gal. 6:i, 2).
