The Death Of Grey Hazlerigg
We sincerely hope the Church of Christ will be favoured with the record of the life of this faithful pastor, preacher, and editor. Our beloved brother fell asleep in Jesus on October 4th, 1912, at the advanced age of 94 years.

We had anticipated the publication of his life and labours in the Gospel Standard, of which at one time he was the esteemed editor, but were disappointed in having but two pages in the December issue, with no indication of a forthcoming memoir.

Exhortation To Humility
A Sermon Preached By Grey Hazlerigg, At Forest Hill in May, 1882 “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time. Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for you.”—1 Peter 5:6,7 If you look through the chapter from which I have taken my text, you will find it full of the preceptive part of God’s Word. Some people have such a dislike for the preceptive part; if a minister speaks of it, they call him legal directly, but why is it? Because they are not willing to walk in obedience to the Gospel precepts. How full all the epistles are of the preceptive part; and if a minister does not preach this part (though…
