Of the Duty of Church-Members to their Pastor.
1st. 'TIS the Duty of every Member to pray for their Pastor and Teachers. Brethren, 1pray for us, that the Word of the Lord may run and be glorified. Again, saith Paul, Praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, 2to speak the Mystery of Christ. Prayer was made without ceasing of the Church unto God for him. They that neglect this Duty ⟨p. 12⟩seem not to care either for their Minister, or their own Souls, or whether Sinners be converted, and the Church edified or not. They pray for their daily Bread, and will they not pray to have the Bread of Life plentifully broken to them?
