REV. DR. TALMAGE, CLL CIOCOKLYN DIVINE'S SUN- : DAY SERMON, ' Swwasdt: “Slandors Against Religion . Answered,” aledve TEXT: “Ana I took the little Dook out of the angel's hand, and ate i! up, and §t was Tomy mouth wee! as honey; and as soon as [ had eaten it my belly was bitter. And He said wnto me: Thow must prophesy again before many peoples, and fons, and tongues, and kings." —Rev. x., 10-11, Domitian, the Roman Emperor, had in his en pram a ma te p preaching, $0 a barren island, as now the Russians exile con- viots to Siberia, or as sometimes the lish Government used to send to Aus- tralin, The island I speak of is now called Patmos, and is so barren and anproductive that its inhabitants live by fishing.

Because we cannot under. stand the Trinity, does that change the fact! “And there is your absurd doctrine about onists who have chewed up the little book of avan- gelism, and have the consequent embittered stomach ‘‘justification by faith; you can’t explain it” 1 can explain it Tt is simply this: When a man takes the Lord Jesus Christ as his Saviour from sin, God lets the | offender off.
