FORCED INTO HOPE.
When hope can find nothing in bunion
capacities to found itself upon, it will
mime au interposition‘from 100100. One
pf your first axioms. and which, if not
abused, it is your duty, as well as your
right to hold,• is, that you were net made
to perish. It is your duly to proceed
upon the fact that you are ordained to
eternal well-being. With a feeling akin
to audacity you should cling to that con
viction, and persist in the means which
foster and tend to realize it.
Despair is the expulsion of manhood
It is man making himself into a grave
yard. It is using his possibilities as so I
much earth in which to inter himself', in
stead of using them as rich soil to grow
liimself into fruits meet cur the husband-
Irian when he comes. flop? is the man
sitting within, disCerning his possibilities,
and royally Casting around -o form them
into actualities. Never should tire, and I
iutngiue • tieldom if ever is, the true man
more undaunted than when difficulties
thivaten ; for, assuming, as the gospel of
'Jesus requires him to do, his own cer
tain development nib; the perfections of
the next state of existence, he must dis
cern fears to 12e . 'no't :lgtis of real things,
hut the stockings and false lights and
impotent mischiefs of the prince of the
power of darkness.
God Seerns - to have made man's nature
as itwere spherica/,so that shots aimed at
it are almost necessitated to glance off.—
God has given every faithful soul a carte
blanche, and the only elfor't of pressure
is or ought to be to make that soul write
it larger sum in its check. Cowardice is
ft crime, thCre' being a God, and such a
Gyi as He is. In yourself you are
nothing, hut, having God to go to, if-you•
are abject; you cannot be even pitiod ;

ignorant of their true nature, daunt us,
are the very things Whieh, when WC are
enlightened with the light of the gospel,

flinp., us forward. " In thy light shall we
pee light." God's stand-point is the
stolid-point of assurance. As your angle

.Tesus, having Halide himselfa Mali stands
forth fur men. Turning upon death he
flashes life in its very fare and turns its
darkness into light. Then turning to his
fellow men, (blessed Le God that Jesus
is our elder brother as well as the song of
the highest.) bids them be of good cour
age and go forward, be has been to the
front and made all well.
It is at the grave's open month that
the Gospel as it w 3re, proudly proclaims
Ati . iTniortal existence. Then and there
in the midst of the process which Deems
to he the annihilation of man, the words
of Jesus Christ declare a resurrection
and a life. The body of the creature is
buried, but " the earnest
The
of
the creature" is not. The creature, as
its body is lowering into the grave,seems
to protest against the suggestions of its
surroundings; it assaults appearances; it
asserts the very opposite of appearances;
it seems with vehemence to say : "
shall rise affain ;" it stands to it that its
burial. so far from being its extinction,is
but the hiding of itself that it may hese
cretly renewcd,and in the fullness of time
re-appear in the substance and costume
of immortality.
Thus dissolution,instead of destroying,
developes the utmost lot= of the "earnest
expectation of the creature." The very
crisis of life is accepted as the very period
for putting forth, it acts as a forcing
forth of the "earnest expectation of the
creature." That which from one stanc'-'
• point looks like crushing the creature,
from another is seen to be but a progress
to force into the consciousness the con
viction, or at least the hope of, or the
yearning for a better mode of existence.
In manifesting the truthrespecting the
greater we have manifested the truth re
specting the less. if death Qom-es to
force " the earnest expectation of the
creature - towards ari impending humor
tality why should not all material draw-
backs act in some measure in the same
direction ? If loath leads us to yearn for
a better world why should not all minor
sufferings fbrce us to hope and work fur
better thine? If the Christian faith finds
in death the dawning of the endless da:.,
can it not find in the subordinate pains
and evm penalties of physical lire the
prophecies of deliverance for such a
]3abylonish captivity? Is there a rain
bow between earth and heaven only ? Is
there no rainbow over the earth itself ?
God oftentimes incorporates the same
truths in measures minute as well as in
finite.' The properties of a triangle are
irrespective of its size. The parent in his
relation to his child has but a reduced
image of God's relation to him. The bee
and the ant teach and show the use; of
industry as veritably as the din of a
thousand mills. And so every clay's suf
fering has that within it which forces the
exercise of hope as actually as life here,
(as it were through the instinct of self
preservation,) flies by hope into the life
hereafter.
Hope is the wine of life, and like wine
it, is made by pressure. " Tribulation
worketh patience ; and patience, experi
ence, and experience, hope." The heart
is a wine press, and it is by turning and
turning down the screw that the juice of ,
sanctified feeling falls into the trough of
the consciousness. It is not the way in
which it would be contributed that hope
would be formed. But thus it is. And
how well it works! We are unaware of
our possibilities, ignorant of the stores
within us. Ease leaves us to draw upon
and use only the obvious capacities of our
being. But pressure comes and that
obliges us to strike within for additional
resources, which, almost invariably to
our surprise, disclose themselves. We
find ourselves richer than we were aware
or. And it makes us feel we have more
base, and inspires us with a certainty of
coping with difficulties on a larger scale.
This hr.ppening time after time at length
forms a standing assurance against all
fear of failure. Experience records
enough instances of resources issuing at
the very moment neeaed to drive away
all thniditY founded up-m the apprehen
sion of meagreness. Experience makes
you aware of the resources which God
has given you. and the consciousness of
these makes you hopeful.
The indre you place upon the working
christian the more you press him to hope.
To give up is not in his nature; that i
-
would be weakness, with somewhat of a
tendency to perfidy. When lie can do
nothing else he must hope ; and even
"hope against hope." God has given
him the conviction that he cannot be dc,-
. strived against his own will, and since
his own will is made fractions through
hereditary and super-added abuse. the
gospelof .Jesus stands firth to give to
hope an energy of action which shall
compensate for the nervousness of the
will. That which in the natural man is
the bare "expectation of the creature"
i., in the Mau made aware in• Christ the
in whom it trusts; awl every nrdeal,every
pressure only brings out more measures
nt hope. Hope and the new man under
stand each other well. They have one
another's confidence. The one, haviipz
its supply in •Jesus Christ, cannot be
bankrupted ; the other knowing that
draws unsparingly; assumes its supplies
as unconsciously as it assumes the admis
sion of the sun light through the opening
of the eye-lids.
