Not By Bread Alone,
At a ministers’ meeting the other day
Rev. Dr. Rainsford was telling of the
futility of trying to comiort persons in
distress with Bible texts. “I had an
experience in my early career,” he
said, “which made such an impression
¢n me that it has saved me from many
mistakes, Whenever 1 tried to per-
suade an Irish member of my flock to
pay more attention to his church duties
¢ would make an excuse that it took
him all his time to earn a living, and
would touch my heart by his explana-
tion of the difficulty of making money.
“But,” 1 exclaimed, “A man does not
live by bread alone.”
“No, your Reverence,” replied Pat-
rick, “sure he needs a bit of meat and
vegetables as well.”
“Since that time,” said the doctor, “I
have resisted the temptation to ladle out
tant in place of human sympathy and
toncrete aid.”

“RABBONL”
Sunday Discourse By Dr. Chapman, the
Noted Pastor-Evangelist,
i The Death of Christ a Help to Ali, For By It
He Takes Away From Us All the Sting
and From the Grove Its Victory.
NEw York City. The following im-
pressive sermon has been prepared for
the press by the popular pastor-evangel-
ist, the Rev. Dr. J. Wilbur Khapman,
The subject of the discourse is “Rabboni,”
and it was preached from the text, “Jesus
saith unto her, Maury! She turned herself,
and saith unto Him, Rabboni! which is to
say. Master!” John 20: 16. :
The burial of Christ lies between His
humiliation and His exhaltation; it is one
of the resting points in His history, and
the grave to Hira as to us all was the gate
of life. He passed through it into His
glorious resurrection. If the crucifixion
be represented as one mountain and the
ascension as another then the burial of
Christ is like a valley, and since it is true
that in every valley mentioned in the
Seriptures there is a well of water or a
spring, so strange as it may seem in this
valley which seems to be filled only with
shadows one stoops to drink at the well of
comfort, for the death of Christ is the
very greates* possible comfort and help to
us, for in His death He takes away from
us all the sting and from the grave its vie-
tory, for the tomb of the Christian in all
the vears this side of the burial of Christ
has been tenanted with angels, but we
have not so much to do with His burial
as with His resurrection. John gives no
narrative of the itself, but
rather an account iper in which
he himself was convinced t resur-
rection had taken place is not so
much an argument, although on the basis
of it have been

he utterance of her name was enough
to tell her it was some one who knew her
that was there. The voice seemed again
to command a calm within her, for once
before that voice had banished from her
nature the evil spirits that had taken pos
session of her, but now again she steps
out of darkness into light, and from being
broken-hearted she becomes the happiest
creature in the world, Undoubtedly
there is very much more to the ministry
of angels than we imagine. Their at-
tendance upon Jesus’ birth, their con-
stant presence during all His life. and
even the guarding of His dead body is
t an example of their service to each
of us. All the providential dealings of
God 2re administered by angels, and in
the next dispensation we do not know
but that this may be our own ministry.
{ebrews 2: 5, “For unto the angels hath
ie not put in subjection the world to
come, whereof we speak.” There are
some special thoughts which ought to be
drawn this morning from a story so beau:
tiful as the meeting of Mary with her
Lord in the garden.
say
Wom aN.
Jecanse they have taken
where
We must surely be impressed with the
thought that those who love Christ most
diligently and perseveringly are thor
who receive the most privileges from
Christ's hand. It is worthy of note that
Mary Magdalene would not lesve the sep
ulcher when Peter and John went away
to their homes. love to her Master
would not let her leave the place where
e had lain. Where He was now she
could not tell; what had become of Him
she did not know, but love made her lin-
ger, love made her honor the last place
where His precious body had been seen
by mortal eyes, und ber love reaped a
rich reward, She was the first to see her
Lord after He rose from the dead: the
first to hear His voice and the first to
held conversation with Him. All believ.
ers have not the same degree of faith or
hope or knowledge or courage or wisdom,
but it is certainly true that those who
love Christ most fervently and cleave to
Him most closely will always enjoy the
raost communion with Him.
First—Notice the instruction given to
ferent phases and elements, In Peter it
is subjection, in John it is objection. The
reply of Peter to the Lord was “I love
hee,” while John's constant description
of himself wag, “The disciple whom Jesus
loved,” May we not learn, therciore, of
the apprehension of Jesus’ love for us in-
stead of being occupied with out poor, fit-
ful, flickering life, for He is that which
will give greatest joy to the soul, The
exhortation of the Seriptures is “Keep
yourself in the love of God.” In Mary we
discover these elements properly com
bined. Tracing her history we find that
Jesus had dehvered her from an awful
bondage, ‘Now when Jesus was risen
early the first day of the weck He ap-
peared first to Mary Magdalene, out of
whom He had cast seven devile.” Mark’
16: 9. Truly she might realize the words
of Hezekiah, Isaiah 38: 17, “Behold for
eace 1 had great bitterness, but Thou
fous in Jove to my soul delivered it from
the pit of corruption: for Thou hast cast
zll my sins behind Thy back.” Marginal
reading, “Thou hast loved up my soul
from the pit of corruption.” Therefore
being so much forgiven she loved much.
That is, Jesus’ love was the source and
her love was the inevitable result. There
are some elements of Mary's love which
ought to be studied here,
{a) The vision of angels did not terrify
her. In Matthew's gospel the angels re
assured the woman by saying “Fear not,
as they were afraid, bunt with Mary she
was too completely filled with thoughts
of Christ to be any ways afraid of the
sight of angels. Undoubtedly she was ab-
solutely forgetful of her physical weakness,
for she said to Him om she supposed to
be the gardener, “S if Thou have borne
’
Sir,
Him hence, tell me where Thou hast laid
Him, and I wiil take Him away.” How
would it have been possible for her to
handle the body of who was dead,
and yet doubtless she would have found a
wav. It is certainly true that intense de
votion to the Lord takes sway every
thought of the burden of service, and those
who have an absorbing for Christ
may perform deeds which would be im
possible under ordinary circumstances.
There are three people whom we may re

day the severest condemnation of Christ
Himself. There are many piaces in the
New Testament where | find that He 1s
called Master, in addition to the one in
the text, but three of them I should like
specially to emphasize
Firat—Luke 17: 13, “And they lifted up
their voices and said, Jesus, Master, have
mercy on us” This is a picture of the
lepers as Jesus passes through the midst
of Samaria and Galilee, and is an illus
tration for all who would be freed from
their bondage, They are hopeless and
helpless, dead, according to the law and
cast out from the presence of men accord
ing to the Scriptures. Luke 17: 14, “And
when He saw them He said unto them,
Go show yourselves unto the preists. And
it came to pass, that, as they went, they
were cleansed.” Let it ever be remembered
that as they went they were cleansed,

rejoicing in all (he glorious liberty of the
sons of God. In Jesus leprosy has met ils
conqueror, and that for which leprosy
stands, Ramely, sin, its mightiest foc.
Becond--Luke 5: 5, “And Simon answer
ing said unto Him, Master, we have
toiled all the night, and have taken noth.
ing; nevertheless at Thy word I will let
down the net.” The disciples are fishin
and all the night they bave toiled an
taken nothing, but the Master makes a
simple suggestion, as a result of which
they gather in so many fish that their
net brake and their partners came to
help them and fill both the ships so that
they began to sink. He is the Master to
help us in the time of perversity and trial
and business difficulty. There is no an
noyance in the home but what might be
right if He were in control; there is no
anxiety in business but what might be
avoided or met if He were really in the
seat of power in our lives; there is no
difficulty so at or no annoyance so
trifling as to beneath His t htful
suggestion. If, as He said Himself, the
very hairs of our head are numbered
and not a sparrow falls to the ground
without God's care, then we may rest as
sured that He will turn to us with com-
plete deliverance if He only be recog:
nized as Master,
Thirdlie is the Master of She home

A very dear friend of mine, one of a
family of seven sons, told me that his old
Reoteh mother almost broke her heart in
the old land because one of her seven
song was a proflignte. There came into
her home one day an aged neighbor who
said, “Why do you sorrow so: you have
six sons saved; let John go.” And my
mother, said my friend, rose tremblingly,
leaning upon the chair heevily and said,
“1 will never let him go. 1 gave him to
God before he was born, 1 carried him
into the kirk as soon ax I eonld walk, and
he is God’s child, and He will have him if
He turns the world over to get him,” and

There is a very suggestive incident ree

be a greater power for good than any other
agency.
A young man sat chatiing wilh some
giddy girls. Among them was a sweet,
quiet young woman known as a Christian.

nor seem to notice him. Then he continued
his harangue, hoping to force her to refute
something. But she maintained the same
sweet, dignified silence. A vision of hie
own stupidity broke over the young man
and convicted him of sin. He said after
ward, telling the story, “That silence saved
me. “
