The word rebuke seems to imply something more gentle than chastisement. And it is of some importance to consider it .in this light. I know not a better illustration of it than Christ's address to the churches of Asia. The especial preciousness of these lies* in this, that they show us what the heart of Christ is when reproving. What a discovery do they give us of this! Let us hear him addressing them. Thus he rebukes the angel of the church of Ephesus:--" Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love; remember, therefore, from whence thou art fallen, and repent." Thus he rebukes the church of Pergamos : " I have a...
