CIn this discourse Dr. Talmage describes in a new way the gacrifices wade for the world’s dizentrall- ment and deliveranen, His text is I. John iv, 16. “God is love.” Perilous undertaking would it be to at termnt a comparison between the attributes God. They are not like a mountain range. with here and there a higher peak. nor like the ocean, with here and there a nrafounder depth We cannot measure infinities. We would not dare say whether His omnipotence or omniscience or omni- nresence or immutability or wisdom or instice or love is the greater attribute. Rut the one mentioned in my text makes deeper impression upon us than any other It war evidently a verv old man who wrote the chanter fre which 1 take the text, Jabn was not his dotage, as Professor Eichhorn but vou ean tell In repetitions in the epistle and the rambling that he ealled grown people “little children that tle author was probably an octogenarian Yet Paul, in midlife mastering an avdienee of Athenian erities on Mars Hill. said nothing stre er more important than did the venerable when he wrote the three words of text. “God iz love” Indesd, the older one gets the mare he aprreciates thie attribute.
