fane: What man is he that hath planted a vine-
yard, and hath not yet made it common?
Deut. 20. +6. If there be such an one, he may
return to his house; because the first-fruits of
trees and vines were reckoned unclean, or rather
were consecrated to the Lord, and the owner was
not allowed to touch them, till after the fourth
year, Lev. 19. 24, 25.

This word signifies fellowship, concord, or agree-2
ment, 8 Cor. o. 14. What communion hath light
with darkness? Such as are enlightened by the
word and Spirit of God can have no profitable,
agreeable, or comfortable converse with such as
are in darkness or ignorance. Communion is
likewise taken for a sacrament, or sacred sign Acts 6. 7. a
of our spiritual fellowship with Christ, 1 Cor.
10. Id. The cup of blessing, is it not the com- 1 Cor. 5. 9.
munion of the blood of Christ? Our drinking of
the wine in the cup, is a religious action, whereby Acts 1. 21. of
and wherein Christ communicates himself and
his grace to us, and we communicate our souls to
him; so that Christ, and believers in that ac-
tion, have a mutual communion one with another.
Believers have communion with Christ by election
in him; by their kindred with his humanity;
and by a participation of his Spirit. They have
communion with the Father and the Son, 12 Kings 5. 2. the Syrians had gone out by c.
John 1. 3. They partake of alt those blessings
that God the Father has promised to those that
are in covenant with him; and also of alt those
privileges which Christ has purchased for his
members; such as, pardon, reconciliation, adop-
tion, smnct(fication, &c.

12. 41. because the former repented at the preaching of Jonas, but the others shewed no signs of repentance, notwithstanding our Saviour preached and did many mighty works among them. God condemned sin in the flesh, Rem. 8. 3. He

adjudged it to destruction, passed sentence upon it, and accordingly punished it by the sufferings of his Son in the flesh; and thereby declared openly before all the world, by these sufferings of Mis Son, how abominable sin was to him, and how contrary to his nature.

Christ, being no civil judge or magistrate, did not condemn the woman taken in adultery to a civil punishment: Neither did he acquit her, for that would have been making void the law of God: He only performs the office of a minister, and speaks to her as the Mediator and Saiiour of men, in calling her to repentance and reformation, John 8. 10, 11.

This term in scripture signifies wife of the se-
cond rank, who was inferior to the matron, or
mistress of the house. The chief wives differed

CONSCIENCE

Is the testimony and secret judgment of the soul, which gives its approbation to actions that it thinks good, or reproaches itself with those which it believes to be etil: Or, it is a particular knowledge which we have with us of our own deeds, good or evil, arising out of the general knowledge of the mind, which shews us what is good, or evil; and Conscience tells us ahen we have done the one, or the other, Rom. 2. 15. It it either (I) Good, 1 Tim. 1. 5. And this is called, [1] A conscience void of offence toward God and men; which does not accuse a person for any wilful offence^ either against God, or men. Acts 24. 10. [2] A conscience bearing a person witness in the Holy Ghost, that is, by the conduct and guidance of the Holy Ghost, who cannot lie, Rom. 9. 1. [3] Ture and good, being purified by the blood of Christ, Heb. 9. 14. 1 Tim. 3. 9. [4] Purged from dead works ; that is, freed from that sentence of death which it receives by reason of sin, Heb. 9. 14. [5] A conscience not troubled with a sense of guilt, Heb. 10. 2. [6] A conscience checking and condemning persons, when they have gone against their tight, and approving and justifying them, when they hate conformed to it, Rom. 2. 15. Or, (II) Evil, Heb. 10. 22. when it is defiled with vicious habits, so that it does not perform its office aright. It tt catted, [I] A conscience seared with a hot iron; that is, quite extinct and cut off, or utterly hardened, which has tost alt sense and feeling, 1 Tim. 4. 2. [2] A defiled conscience; whenit is blinded and perverted, so that it cannot judge of its own actions. Tit. 1. 15. This evil conscience is sometimes quiet, sometimes stirring and troubled: It accusetk when 1/ should escuse, and exenseth when it should accuse. The conscience also even of the best, is now and then erroneous and doubtful.

The apostle Paul permits the faithful to go and tat at the houses of the Gentiles, if they were invited thither, and to partake of every thing which was served up at their tables, without making particular inquiries out of any scrupulosity of con science; asking no questieus for conscience' sake, 1 Cor. 10. 27, &c. Hut if any one says to them, this has been sacrificed to idols; do not eat of itf says he, for his sake who gave yon this information; and likewise test ye wound not your own, but another's conscience: Conscience, I say, nut thine own, but of the other's. If he who gites you this notice is a Christian, and notwithstanding the information so given you forbear, not to tat: he niti condemn yon in his htart, or will
