REV. DR. TALMAGE. THE BROOKLYN DIVINE'S SUN- DAY SERMON. “A Vision of Heaven.” Subject: Text: “Now il came to pass asl was among the captives by the river of Chebar that t heavens soere opened and I saw visions of God." Ezekiel {,, 1. Expatriated and in far exile on the banks of the river Chebar, an afMuent of the Eu- hirates, sat Ezekiel, It was there he had an mmortal dream, and it is given to us in the Holy Scriptures. He dreamed of Tyre and Egypt, He dreamed of Christ and the com- ing heaven. This exile, seated by that river Chebar, had a more wonderful dream than you or I ever have had or ever will have seated on the banks of the Hudson or Ala- bama or Oregon or Thames or Tiber or Danube, But we all bave had memorable dreams, gome of them when we were half asleep and | half awnke, so that we did not know whether they were born of shadow or sunlight, whether they were thoughts let loose and disarranged as in slumber, or the imagina tion of faculties awake, Such a dream [had this morning. It was about half-past 5, and the day was breaking It was a dream of God, a dream of heaven. RBzekiol bad his dream on the banks of the Chebar; I had my dream not far from the banks of the Hudson, The most of the stories of heaven were written many centuries ago, and they tell us how the place looked then, or how it will look centuries ahead, Would you not like to know how it looks now? That ! is what I am going to tell you. I was there | this morning. I have just got back. Howl Kot into that city of the sun I know not, Which of the twelve gates I entered is to me uncertain, Jut my first remembrance of the scene is that I stood on one of the main ave nues, looking this way and that, lost in rap- tures, and the air so full of musio and redo- lence and laughter and light that I knew not which street to take, when an angel of God accosted mo and offered to show \ Jeots of greatest interest, and from street to street, and mansion. and from temple to from wall to wall. I said to the ang long hast thou been in heaven swer, “Thirty-two years ac earthly calendar There was a secret about this angel's ns that was not given me, bn ness and sweetness and affect est taken in my walk mors than residence, ascended I think it ag Al iecrepitude me the from $ fo thr iin t the n up residence, only in part, I looked in for a few mo temple, liant a Ba y Mr. Drur huroh in urea in ents at the great Our bril lovely SBeoteh es. l, says there Is no heaven, he did not look for it on the right street, Bt. John was right when in his Patmosic vision, recorded in the third chapter of Revelation, he speaks of temple of my God.” saw it t} the largest church I ever saw, as big as all the churches and cathedrals of the earth put together, and it was thr what a multitude! many peo pls together, All all the churches of all the earth make a poor attendance compares assemblage, There was a fashion and headdress that immediate tention. The fashion was wi white, save And the hea gariand of rose and lily and mignonstte, mingled with green leaves culled from the royal gardens and bound together with bands of gold. «And I saw some young men with a ring on | the finger of thy PITht and and said oul : accompanying angel, “Why those rings on | the flugers of the right hands?" and | was | told that those who worethem were prodigal | sons and once fed swine in the wilderness and lived on husks, but they came home, and the rejoicing father said, “Put a ring on his band.” But I said there was one exception to this fashion of white pervading all the anditorium and clear up through all was the attire of the one that in mightiest Jia e. His chooks seemad to be n ® beauty, and morning sky, and his lips were omnig But his attire was of deep colors.

I said to my accompanying angel, “Who is that standing yonder wit! the harp?” and answer was, ‘David And I said, “Who is that sounding that trumpet 7” and answer was “Gabriel” And i sald, “Who is that at the organ?’ and the answer was “Handel!” And the music rolled on till it eame to a doxology extolling Christ Himself, when all the worshipers lower down and higher up, a thousand gal leties of them, suddenly dropped on their knees and chanted, “Worth is the Lamb that was slain.” Under the overpowering har mony I fall back. Isaid: “Lot us go. This is too much for mortal ears, 1 cannot bear the overwhelming symphony.” Bat I noticed as [ was about to turn aws® that on the steps of the altar was something lke the lashyrmal, or tear bottle, as I had seen it in the earthly musems, the lachr: mals, or tear bottles, Into which the orien tals used to weep their griefs and set then AWAY as sacred. Bat this lachyrmal, or tear bottle, in stead of earthenware, as those the orientals used, was lustrous and flery with many splendors, and it was towering and of great capacity, And Isaid to my attending angel, “What fs that great lachrymal, or tear bottle, standing on the step of the altar?” and the angel sald : “Why, don't you know That is the bottle to which David, the paalm- iat, referred in this fAifty-sixth psalm when he said, ‘Put thou my tears Into thy bottle.’ It Is fuil of tears from earth-tears tance, tears of Lereavement, tears of Joy, tears of many centuries.” And then I saw how sacred tothe sympathetic God are earth ly sorrows, As | was coming out of the temple | saw all along the pletured walls there were shelves, and golden vials were being set up on all those shelves, And I sald : “Why the setting up of all these vials at this time? Taey soem just now to have been filled,” and the attending angel sald, “The week of prayer ali around the earth has just closed, and more supplications have been made than have been made for a long while, and these new vials, newly set up, are what the Bible speaks of as ‘golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints,” And I sald to the accompanying angel, “Can it be possi. ble that the prayers of sarth are worthy of being kept in such heavenly shape?” “Why, sald the angel, “there Is nothing that so moves heaven as the yers of earth, and | they are sot up in sight of these infinite | multitudes, and, more than all, in the sight | of Christ, and He cannot forget them, and | a are before Him world without end,” h and others ' tae the of repen { Isanc Watts,” sald my attendant, { enme ap to him, he asked me if the churches | romditions | | with Him." | sufferers, and Latimer and Ridley and Polyearp, whom the flames refused to destroy as they bent outward till a spear did the work, and some of the Albigenses and Huguenots and conse erated Quakers who were slain for their re- lHgion, They had on them many scars, but their scars were {llumined, and they had on their noes a look of especial triumph, Then we passed along Song row, and we met some of the old gospel singers, “That is As we on earth were still singing the hymns he composed at the house of Lord and Lady Abner, to whom he paid a visit of thirty-six years, and I told him that many of the | churches opened the Sabbath morning ser. vices with his old hymn, “Welcome, Sweet Day of Rest." and celebrated their gospel | triumphs with his hymn, “Salvaticn, Oh the Joyful Bong!" and often roused thelr devo- tions by his hymn, We That Love the Lord," While we wera talking he introduesd me to another of the song writers and sald, “This is Charles Wesley, who belonged on earth to a different church from mine, but we are all now members of the same ehureh, the temple of God and the Lamb."

The steps by which many have mounted to the highest places in heaven were made out of the era. dies of corrupt parentage, Wiaen I saw that, I said to my attending angel : “That is fair ; that is right.

The proper text for the title is in the next chapter, and it seems to ma that a better title for the text assigned would be, “Abraham's Intercession for Sodom I will not take up the lesson verse by verse, a8 is my custom, but, taking the tople assigned, will gather some helpful lessons from the whole story in the two chapters xvill. and xix, XVIII, 1-21, The Lord's visit to Abraham snd communion with him The ineident of the visit of the three heavenly ones, Jehovah Himself and two angels, to Abraham, his pro viding food for them and their eating it under the tree is In many respects the only one of the kind in the Bible It is true that in the days of His humili- ation He dined in many bomes, and even after His resurrection did eat with His disciples (Luke xxiv., 42, 43), but before He became man this is the only instance of such intimate fellowship as a man with man. It reminds us of the fellowship that must have been in Eden and suggests to us the coming days when the tabernacle of God shall be with men, and He will dwell with them (Rev, xx1., 8). But we have na privilegenow, which seems to be enjoyed by very few, of the constant presence and fellowship of the Lord Jesus (Rev, {li., 20: John xvi, 25; II Cor, vL, 16). If we would only determine to be wholly His, and only and always His, presenting our bodies unreservedly as a liv. ing sacrifice, He would certs acoept and fill these temples for His glory (Rom. xii, I 2 The Lord's questi hide from Abraham that thing } minds us that it is writter R111 God will do nothing unto His ws (Amos {iL,, 7) And His own xv.. 15 I have ni i 5 things that I have hear made knowt 3 Shall | h 14d res v the veaieth prog is in secret rvants } While Lord bot) and are often taken same disaster, oy wreck, shall h P's obit righitex xiix Us mn yviog r beds or it r beng | noe The dest the oity So Abirahan righteous wi there that the there may be Foaring their may » down to forty-five and twenty ar oedves the assy righteous spared, but one i,7. 8%) fifty ar men The se y rightec man to hw , and while He would § our churches to-day own children him.

He also believed that there was a deluge in the days of Noah, and that Jonah was three dave and nights in the belly of a fish (Luke xvii, 7 Math, xii, 40), We should have no fellowship with those who think they are wiser than Jesus and teach that these things are not true (Gal. 1,8, 9: II John ix, 11).
