Yon SDend Eternity!'
Mr. Bliss preached a cbaraateristlo,
simple and vigorous sermon based on
First Connthiuus, i 'Si, and following
verses. Some time ago, be remarked.
he constantly turned away from tbe
verses SO and 31 in the ohapter to which
be directed their special attention, but
now no verses throngboat the entire
Scriptures were dearer to him. There
were men who called themselves higher
oruios who wanted to hnd out (iod by
their own wisdom, and stated that the
Bible was a good book, but that it was
written in days of ignorance, and that
If it had been written in the present
generation It would have been a much
better work. Snoli was the work of
the higher eriiios, but any fool can
criticise. He, himself, knew mors at
the age of 14 than he knows now,
THEY DESPOIL CHRISTIANITY.
Tbey take all the il-wu and meat off
Christians and leaving tbe bones call it
higher criticism. Let us seek through
Jesus Christ and we get more wisdom
in five minutes than in 10,000 of re
search. A lawyer of Chicago onoe
asked him to reccommend a book upon
the philosophy of salvation and be re
plied "Yon want no book, yon want
Jtfeus Christ." Great whs the lawyer's
consternation to be hold that no book
whs nectsary but simply faith in
Christ. Ho asked the man of law to
pray and pray that his eyes be opened
to pray for God to help him and in
time that man came out filled with
God's wisdom without any research
into philosophy.
The Bible was sufficient for all, and
the wisdom to be obtained was only to
be had through faith in Jesus Christ
our Lord. The ' words sanotiflcation
was mentioned in the word! of bis text
and this was a word that be always
turned from some time ago, as so many
people spoke of ssnctificatiou who had
so little of it. There was a great dif
ference of opinion as to "sinotlfiea
tioD." Honie held that it was instan
taneous and some argued tbat it was
progressive, bo that he would not
dwell upon tbat point, but this he
would say, that he never saw anyone
get too sanctified, so that there was no
necessity to split hairs upon the sub
ject The speaker then went ou to speak
of the word "redeemed," and very
aptly explained that in Heaven the
poor of sight would not rcqnire glasses
or spectaoles, crutches would be dis
pensed with, bo rheumatism would be
there, no dyspepsia inourred.
In concluding his remarks, Mr. Bliss
gave an illustration how Christ and
the devil were bidding for the souls of
men and said tbey are bidding in this
tent this afternoon, and It is for you
now to give the answer: Will you
take tbe offer of Christ or the bids of
the devil?
Moody's evening sermon.
fhe evening insetting in tbe Gospel
tent was announced to begin at 7:30,
but at 7 o'clock the capacious tent
was filled and selections from the Gos
pel Hymns were snug by tbe choir and
the multitude which was gathered
under the canvas Rev. Dr. Freeman
and the Rev. D. C. Hughes, D. D., con
ducted the opening services, after
which Miss Ciime Sanders rendered a
solo suitable to the occasion. Mr.
Moody read the parable of the great
supper from Luke, ohaptor four
teen, after which he engairml in prayer.
The well-known hymn, "Rock of Ages
Cleft for Me," having been sung, Mr.
Moody began his sermon, and said that
the subject of his remarks would be
the three men who had made excuses
from attending the supper. Let it be
observed tbat they "made" exouse, as
they had not one ready.
If men were invited to a funeral or
execution their reluctance would be
undttrstood, but here tbey were invited
to feast! How many in Scranton would
decline an invitation to a feast, be
rather thought there would be a rash
to be on band to get a good seat.
Neither weather, or a little indisposi
tion would prevent them being ptusenl.
Had his hearers ever trisd their hands
at making excuses. There was not a
boy, even of fouryeare old present that
evening, who bad not done go. Tbe
first man spoken of in the parable
mode an exeuse that he had bought a
piece of land. He could imagine him
saying that be would like to be at the
supper, in fact no man in the kingdom
would be better pleased, but I have
some land and must see it. A queer
time to go and see the ground at supper
time. The real estate was probably
going up at that time and he did not
want to lose a bargain, but why did he
not see the grouud before he bougbt
it Thut was the time to see it
and in any ease the land had no legs so
that it could run away iu the mean
time, neither could any one steal it;
in fact, tbe land was there to this day,
so that it showwd how trivall his ex
excuse was. The same appled to the
man who had bought the ooeau. Tbe
excuse of tbe third man who bad mar
ried a wife was more absurd, still as a
feast was just tbe place to take a bride,
but instoad of that he took shelter be
hind his newly-married wife. Now, in
plain English, this was lying.
HAS MAN (MOWN WISER?
But has man grown wiser In the
Intervening 1800 years? We laugh at
those men and say their excuses are
pretty thin, but he asked those who
faced him and sat nn tbe front seat
were they any better, or could they
give better exouses? If so, let them
stand np and do so. He thought that
no man ever. gave a better exouse. and
he thought tbat be could find more
fools than those men in the very tent
in wbicb he then spoke. There wis
no place in the whole world where tbe
fruits of Christianity should be more
dearly seen than in Amerioaand Penn
sylvania. Even in his audieece he was
sure that there plenty of men who
oould turn out exooses as swiftly as oil
off a marble. .
. Youug men made an excuse that
they would wait until tbe evening of
life. If they were Christians now tbey
would be compelled to wear long faces
and forego tboso pleasures and oould
not sample life while tbey were yonng.
There was not a greater lie forged in
bell. Religion does not make men long
faeed.
God is tbeir father. Heaven their
home and Christ their Saviour, and he
hod lifted thtm from tbe bottom of the
pit higher than the Archangel. Does
that make him wretehed? Go aid ask
the old libertine, the forger, the dronk
ard, if tbe devil is an easy master. I
have been oarrylng tbe yoke of my
Master for forty yean, and it is so light
that I do not know that I am carrying
,f :
It. I God bard master? (Cries of
Nol) Louder I (Nolnolnol)
ABOUT TUB HYPOCRITES. '
Another inau's exeuse la that there
are so many hypocrites in ohuroh.
This is his stock in trad, hypocrites,
bypooritea, bypoorites. Yon will bear
someone tomorrow dragging the ser
mon to pieces, ha is like the dog
struck with a stone, the first to yelp.
Are there no hypocrites in society or in
business? Are there any short meas
ures in the store? and quacks with the
doctors? anyshylocks with the lawyers
or in political parties? It so why not
leave the business also? If all the hypo
crites in this tent were struck by light
ning the undertakers would be busy
tomorrow.
. There are two exouses men will not
give:
First A lack of moral courage.
Men who are afraid ot the chaff of tbeir
fellow workmen or who are uot bold
enough to stand up for the Bible of
their mothers.
Second The roan with a besetting
in. "Blessed is be that will be at the
marriage feast of the Lamb." Let
them seek to be there.
God does not want exouses. He wants
you there. Will you be there? Who
has tbe courage to say "night I" I
will. Who will say and show the scof
fer next to him that he is not ashamed.
"I will" echoed long and loud through
tbe building.
At 4 p. ui., Mr. Moody addressed a
large audieuee at Elm Park ehuroh and
7 30 a women rueoting was held at tbe
Simpson Methodist Eplsoopal church,
Hyde Park, which was addressed by
R'JV. J. 1. Collins, Scranton Street
Baptist ehuroh and Rev. L. C Flovd,
D. D. The large cbnreh was filled' to
its utmost eapitoity. Bible class ser
vices will be held at Elm Park church
daily at 4 p, iu., under the supervision
ot Mr, Moody who will also preach at
tneuospel tent, Hyde Park, each even'
ing excopt Saturday at 7 31) p. m.
