REY. DR. TALMAGE. SUNDAYS SERMON IN THE NEW YORK ACADEMY OF MUSIC, Subject: “Tongues of Fire,” Text: “Have ye received the Holy Ghost.” Acts xix. 2 The word ghost, which means a soul, or | spirit, has been degraded in common par | lance, We talk of ghosts as baneful and | frightful and in a frivol or superstitious | way. Butmy text speaks of x Ghost who is omnipotent and divine and everywhere ent and ninety-one times in the New Testa- ment called the Holy Ghost, The only time | I ever heard this text preached from was in the opening days of my ministry, when a glorious ola 8eoteh minister came up to help me in my village church, On the dayof my ordination and installation he sald, “If you get into the of a Baturday night without enough ser for Sunday, send for me, and I will y and preach for you." The fact ous to be known that the first three f a pastor's life are appallingly arduous, 0 other profes. gion makes the twe the demand on a young man, secular preacher prepares on shes for a politi- eal campaign it is considered arduous, If & lecturer prepares one lecture for a vear, he is th aht y have d | young pastor has two ser every Sabbath before his us coraer mons resp pres ache announ I rem It was the On the fol all and « text that I now ing but the tex ever preached, 8 Al Hd of ly Ghost? ngs, and the 1 was su- { What | two | then stumbling d | roads, | prec { muscle him, “I am the resurrection and the life; he that believeth in Me, though dead, yet shall he live" Next consider the Holy Ghost as a human reconstructor. We must be made over again, Christ and Nicodemus talked about it. Theologians eall it regeneration, 1 do not care what vou call it, but we have to he ro- constructed by the Holy Ghost, We become | new creatures, hating what we once loved | and loving what we once hated, If gin were a luxury, it must become a detestation. If we preferred bad associations, we must pro- | day of judgment, for good associations, In most cases it is | such a complete change that the world | notices the difference and begins to ask “What has come over that man? Whom has | he been with? What has so affeeted him has ransacked his entire nature? | What has turned him square about?’ Take pletures of Paul ne on the road to Damascus to kill the disciples of Christ, the other on the road to Ostia to die for Christ, Come nearer home and look at the man who found his chief delight in a low class of elub- hiccoughing around a card table and wn the front steps after staggering homeward, and that one week afterward, with his family on the way to a prayer meeting, | What has done ft? must he something | tremendous, God, It rooms, midnight and SAMS man, It must be the Holy Ghost, Notice the H broken hearts, Comforter, as Ghost Chirst as the onlls want What 1 unds, lantern for from m arble siat i8 nee rescu m the mMigning Ars lift fro f tom! tc most has 1 not got what reached tha betray.

Another read, “Dear mother, the work continues, and I, too, have been converted." Another read, “At last faith and peace,” In Vermont a religious | meeting was singing the hymn, “Walting and Watching for Me," The song rolled out the night air, and a man halted and said, wonder if there will be any one waiting watching for me?" t started him heavy What was it?
