CH Subject: “The Cradie of Jesus™—Lessons Drawn From the Miraculous Escape of the Infant Christ From the Perils That Encompassed Him, Text: “Herod will seek the young child to destroy Him." Matthew fi. 18. The cradle of the infant Jesus had no rockers, for it was not to be soothad by os- eillating motion, as ure the cradles of othe. princes, It had noembroidered pillow, for the young head was not to huve such lux- urious comfort. Though a meteor, ordin- arily the most erratic and seemingly un- governable of all skyey appearances, had been sent to designate the place where that cradle stood, und a choir had been sent from the heavenly temple to serenade its illustrious occupant with an epic, yet the cradle was the target for all earthly and diabolical hostilities, Indeed, I give You as my opinion that it was the narrow- est and most wonderful escape of the ages that the child was not slain before He had taken His first step or spoken His first word. Herod could not afford to have Him born, The Caesars could not afford to have Him born. The gigantic oppressions and abominations of the world could not afford to have Him born, Was there ever ombardment bombardment of that cradle? The Herod wholed the attack was ‘reach. ery, vengeance and sensuality imper- sonated. As a sort of pastime he slow Hyr- canus, the grandfather of his wife. Then he slew Mariamme, his wife. Then he butchered her two sons, Alexander and Aristobulus, oldest son. forty people who had pulled down the eagle of his authority, who had attended upon his dying bed to be slain, so that there might be univeraal mourning after his disease, From all the ebiidren in Bethelem yoars of age, feeling sure that if he would include the destruction whose birthplace astronomy had pointed out with its finger of light. What were the sinughtered babes to him, frenzied and bereft mothers? If been well enough to leave his bed, he would have enjoyed seeing the mothers he them, so tightly that they could notibe separated until the sword took both lives at one stroke, and others, mother and child, hurled from roofs of houses street, until that village of horse. shape on the hillside became one great butcher shop. To have such a man with associates just as cruel and an army at bis command, attempting the life of the for His escape? Then t for so many miles, across deserts and amid bandits and wild beasts (my friend, the Iate missionary and scientist Dr. Lansing. who took the same journey, it was enough to kill both Madonna and Child), and poo ice in Cairo.

Now, you can imagine what would have been the calamity to earth and heaven, what a bereavement to all history, what swindling aot only of the human race, but of cherubim and seraphim and archangel, if because of infernal incursion upon the bed ef that Bethlehem babe this life of divine and glorious manhood had never been lived? The Christio parables would never have been uttered; the sere mon on the mount, all adrip with bene- dictions, never preached; the golden rule, in picture frame of everlasting love, would never have been hung up for the universe to gaze upon and admire, Can you imagine what a searifieation of the world’s literature would be the re- moval of all Christ ever did and sald?
