[Written for tne Phtla. Evening Bulletin. ] SABBATH HEADINGS. *IIHE EEV. EDWARD 0. JOKES, A. K. SELF-RENUNCIATION. • The deity bf man ia self. The divinity he bows instinctively is not God. With the Persian he may not, indeed, worship the son, for his sensibilities are hardly refined enough, in many cases, to soar to so noble a created object, and fix npon it his regards, but himself is the centre aronnd which gravitate hopes and wishes and plans and endeavors. How will I be benefited by such a project? How will such an enterprise avail me? How much can I Spare myself in prosecuting such a purpose, and still with all my sparing effect it ? How much can I realize, and at how small a cost of mental, moral, or physical labor ? How much can X add to a my wealth or position or character by some slight of hand which in volves simple canning and policy without lay ing under requisition any manly exertion of the heart and nerve, limbs and brain. Such, such ore questions which engross our thoughts and enshrine our souls. The great, I myself, the overshadowing unit which ignores all other existence—this, this it is which makes man the Contracted thing he is by nature. The pro r clivity to exalt and magnify himself while he depreciates others; this •it is which divests'him; of tha dignity which attaches to self-renunciation. But the question may bs asked, if self is so closely enshrined in the temple of our devotion, can we renounce our claims? .Can we lose sight of o ur idol in thw clouds of oblivion ? Can we rub out the mighty unit, and substitute the thousands of our fellow men ? Can- we so entwine our sympathies around others as to make their interests equate with onrs ? Can we stop off the little circum scribed patch of egotism and circumnavigate the world in fellowship ? These are solemn questions, and should be - carefully answered, and in answering them we are free to acknow ledge that in one sense we cannot entirely for get self. The best of men must study his tem poral interests and endeavor to advance the welfare of his family. This is enjoined upon him by the Almighty, and he who neglects by law ful means thus to advance his interests and those of his- family, is a deliquent, nay, he is highly culpable. If such remissness in duty be self-renunciation, then the worthless, indo lent and unthrifty man, who exercises neither brain nor hand, may plead his forgetfulness of self as a very noble trait of character. Self renunciation is strictly compatible with the study of our own personal welfare. To illustrate this : We may advance our welfare by honest means, and yet not retrench our interest in that of others. With an eye on our wants, we can still remember the wants of others. Forward to consummate our own enterprises, we can still co-operate frankly and freely with onr neighbor in the furtherance and maintenance of his plans. We can hush the clamorous organ note of self, so far as to hear the flute-like pleadings of onr brethren who look to us for sympathy and aid. We can walk round the interests of humanity and survey the field of our obligation tq the race. “ We can give np a little ease for some philanthropic ex ertion. Tha staff of the traveler and the bag of bread for distribution, may take the place of the rocking-chair and slippers and warm coal fire. _We can sustain with one shoulder our own interests, while we withdraw not the other from assuming the weight of our brother’s care. It is only tins abnegation of self which takes man from his moral hermitage and gives him a throb or pulsation in unison with the beatings of the great heart of the race. It is only this which connects him in the chain of earthly fel lowship as an integral link, supporting others, and himself reciprocally supported by others. A man who has thus sacrificed the illegal de mands of self, at the pure shrine of a higher divinity, .Bill never look upon his fellows as mere puppets in the show, while he as the master-spirit manages them as he may please, and as best may suit his whims or his conveni ence. He will- not use his fellows as mere ■stepping-stones to his own personal aggrandize- I ment, while he hypocritically avows a profound interest in their welfare. He will be part and parcel with the race. He will love man as min. i He will attach his heart to those who can add nothing to his stores by their patronage, or to nis tame by their recommendation. Man as such will be invested with dignity in his eves, hough the rags of the mendicant be his only overmg. Kay, he will promote the welfare of be poor with more alacrity because they can make no return, except in their gratitude. And he com of gratitude with him will never be pa J‘ ? e wiU acknowledge its relative alue as far above that of silver or of gold. To tm there will be a bank of bullion in the tear rop of devotion, and the uttered prayers of P u thway he has smoothed through “^ the brotherhood of man will crown , a badge of honor, though in his Un°«f St i 9 f bis own services, he would f 9ft to claim precedence or distinction bttle he has done in time. Honor will r£V° “ m by the operation of a fixed law in ArA <^n^ C< v tt -° my ’ and wb en his lips and hands win memory will be a blossom which will flourish in perenniai fragrance, for the odor of goodness is undying and immortal.
