Sunday Discourse by Dr. Chapman, the Noted Pastor-Evangelist, The Story of Jacob-—A Lesson for the Peo: ple of To-Day—1f We Give Ourscives to 7od Unstinted Blessing Will Be Ours. NEw York Crry.—The Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, the popular pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, who is remarkably successful as an evangelist, has prepared “The Wagons Are Coming” It is preached from the text, “And when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.” Geneiss 45: 27. There is a fascination about the land of | Egypt which cannot be described in words. | There are some particular features of this | ancient land which impress you, First of all | there is a peculiar haze over the country + which is unlike anything to be seen in any other part of the world, The sunsets are indescribable, but the most striking thing { about Egypt is the ruins; on every side of | you are these ruins telling of the splendors of past days.

It will be noticed that | Jacob is at Bethel again. He has had a | dreary experience of failure, and in the ! 35th chapter of Genesia (God tells him to | @0 back to Bethel, In itself Bethel is not much, it is just a long range of barren hills, but to Jacob it was a memorable { spot. for there he had seen God. It is an | easy thing to understand how he might i have been ‘homesick for Bethel. for we long to see the old home so filled with sa- ered memories and the old land where we , were born, the old church where first we came to Christ, and so God said to Jacoh. | “Put away your idols,” and he buried | them near to the nak and hurried on to | Bethel. Ta this not a lesson for some of us in these days, we have spiritually declined, i to have lost the peace that once we had. | the power that used to be ours, let us go back to Bethel and pray as we wsed to | pray, read the Bible as we used to read it. spend the Lord's day as we used to spend it, give ourselves to God again, I doubt ! not but that blessing will be ours without ‘ measure. There are some other events i which we ought to keep in mind in the life of Jacob to aporeciate the text. One was the death of Rachel as he came near to Bethlehem. I have seen the tomb in which was placed, and this is th chapter of Genesis, 1 the name Tri ce,” because Ever afterward a little way to Rachel travailed, and #! vd labor And it came to pass as she was in hard labor that the ide said unto her, Feat not, thou shalt have this son also. And it came to pase, ag her soul w im depart ing, for she died, that she ealled his name Benoni, but his father called him Benja min. And Rachel died. and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.” The other was his loss of Joseph. twenty years he had fnourned him. There are some cries that are crushed out of his heart which enable us to see and under stand his grief, ns, for example, "1 i go down to my grave mourning.’ again, “Me ve have bereft of mv children Joseph is not, Simion not and will take Benjamin from me.” 11 The meeting of Joseph and Jacob, are familiar with the st elation of peace to his brethren and now at Pharaoh's suggestion ti come now you We wry of Joseph's rev the Ww sent for the old man and all } that they might come Egypt and dwell there the raged in Canaan. 1 can the wi rumbling outside the palace door, and Pha raoh stands at his palace with Joseph be wide him, the ring upon his hand and a chain of authority about his neck.

Pharaoh the great has dome again!” It must have been like this when Jacob was taken back to Canaan, “Jacob, the great, has come again,” but at last they reach the cave of Machpelah, and they place him there to rest. Abraham is there with Sarah and Isaac with Rebekah and Jacob with Leah, and there they shall wait until the tomb is opened by the coming of Christ, and hand in hand they shall eo forth to mest Him.
