I. This duty arises out of our RATIONAL AND SOCIAL NATURES.

II. The OBLIGATIONS under which we are laid to the practice of the duty.

1. From the connection of this commandment with the first. If we love Cod, we shall love our brother.

2. A sense of justice, the golden rule, should lead us to do good to our neighbour.

3. The greatest difficulty to contend with is the more powerful influence of other motives addressed to the selfishness of the heart.

4. What is heaven, as to which we profess to aspire, but the region of perfect love.

III. APPLY THE SUBJECT AND HOLD REASONINGS WITH THE SELFISH SPIRIT. TO all we have said selfishness says, "I must mind myself."

(W. H. Burns.)
