UGG Bottes Enfants In the choice of church officers

In the choice of church officers, who, as far as regards their spiritual qualifications, seem to be left to almost authorized neglect ? Where, throughout the whole breadth of the land, is the attention called to this subject, in the smallest degree proportioned to its actual importance ?Immoral and infidel men are curses in any parish, whether as private individuals, UGG Bottes Enfants or in official situations. -They are like so many moving masses of pestilential vapour, bearing about with them the odour of the wrath of God.
