John v. 28, 29. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. Dan. xii. 2.

CHURCH COVENANT. As we trust we have been brought, by divine grace, to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ, and, by the influence of his Spirit, to give ourselves up to him; so we do now solemnly covenant with each other, as God shall enable us, to walk together, in brotherly love; that we will exercise a Christian care and watchfulness over each other, and faithfully warn, rebuke, and admonish our brethren, as the case shall require; that we will not forsake the assembling of ourselves together, nor omit the great duty of prayer, both for ourselves and for others; that we will participate in each other's joys, and endeavor, with tenderness and sympathy, to bear each other's burdens and sorrows; that we will seek divine aid to enable us to walk circumspectly and watchfully in the world, denying ungodliness, and every worldly lust; that we will strive together for the support of a faithful, evangelical ministry among us; and through life, amidst evil report and good report, seek to live to the glory of Him who hath called us out of darkness into his marvellous light.
