THE PASTOR'S ADDRESS.
Rev. Mr. Jones delivered an address
to the young people, during which lie
spoke as follows:
I have a desire to talk with our
young people from a special point of
view that may give them an oppor
tunity, as well as to all in the congre
gation, to realize that we are tenants
of time and subjects to the years that
are swiftly going by. Day and night
we are moving restlessly upon the
great ocean of time. Where we are

going M of no doubt, because our home
Is In the hereafter. While on the voy
age of life we cannot make a stop, even
for eno moment. "Going, going," nro
the wot da that aro ringing In the ears
of young nnd old, nnd so It has been
in the history of all nations from the
crnimencement of the world. It Is the
vn.v cf God nnd it comes in hnrmonv
with the highest nature of man as nn
Immortal being,
The fact that man Is a tenant of time
and that his home Is In the world
thut time Is unknown should help him
to understand the meaning of the gos
pel of Christ As the highest creature
of God, man needs time nnd eternity
to develop the richness of his nature.
And the man that makes the best use
of time nnd Its opportunities cannot
but glorify God for his existence nnd
for the privilege of going through this
world nnd Its trials to his eternal
homo.
Some of you young people remember
when I hecamo the pastor of this
church. It was ten years ago; thev
have gone swiftly, so that I am look
ing bnck to the Sabbatn I preached
my llrst sermon to this church as If It
was a few days ago. Yet, we trust
that they have not passed without
having In their records some deeds.
that may help us to enjoy heaven nnd
to glorify God In His Son Jesus Christ.
SKEN MANY CHANGES.
During the time we have been to
gether we have seen many changes
In this part of the city and within this
church. Death has been here as a de
stroying angel, taking away fathers,
mothers, brothers nnd sisters, of whom
we have a strong hope that they are In
the tabernacle above, a building made
not with hands, prepared by Him for
all who nre In the love of God.
Hut, after all changes, we have rea
sons to thank the Lord for His kind
ness towards ua In His Providence
and also In His divine grace. From
those changes we Hliould learn the les
son that God alone Is unchangeable
nnd that we should trust more In Him
even than In the best of saints.
O! let mo trust, my God, in Thee,
Because I know thy strength to be
The only rock my soul enn stay.
When death shall sweep all things
away.
Let me give you nn ndvlco, my dear
young people: Prepare yourselves to
meet the changes of life. It Is for you
nnd I to know and to realize that
changes nre a part of man's life In this
wot Id, The path of life goes through
the wilderness of changes.
The young and old that are In the
love of God are one In Christ; that Is,
'hey are working together In the same
spirit and for the same object of sav
ing souls. In this respect the young
nnd the older people of this tabernacle
have done good work together in th
past. You have worked as one soul,
which Is to me a sign from the Lord
that Ho has a meaning to our exist
ence as a branch of His real church
on earth, which keeps the light of God
In the world.
It Is of the greatest Importance for
the prosperity of the church of God to
have the young and the older people of
the church to love ench other and to
co. operate In all doings. Such has
bem a blessing to the cause of Christ
in this place. The young people have
regarded the older portion of the
church ns fathers and mothers In Ts
rael, On the other hand, the older
people have respected the young roo
ple ns sons and daughters In the love
of God. Wo need to have this love to
continue In the future ns wen as In
the past so as to be as David and
Jonathan In all doings of the church.
IT IS HIS DUTY.
It Is my duty to let you know the
love I have towards you as young
people of this church and for the ad
vancement of your souls In the grace
of God and In the knowledge of our
Lorn Jesus Christ. I feel it my duty
to thank the Lord for so many young
people faithful to their Owl and so
willing to do their best In behalf of
His church in this place. May wo hell,
our young people to overcome all ovll.
The nlm of my preaching to the young
people has been to teach to them the
laws of God the love of Christ and
their duties toward humanity; and, on
the other hand, to show to them the
grace of the gospel which enables
them to be victors over every enemy
that alms to destroy the honor of a
good character.
The preaching has Its bearing upon
your characters to a great extent, nnd
It seems to me that you have realized
that life Is worth to live, and to live
even in trials and temptations of this
world. The ministry of the gospel has
been Intended by God to teach the peo
ple the way of life and of the grace

stored In Christ In behalf of every
man that has a wish to take hold of
salvation In the Lord.
The minister of Christ stands be
tween God and the people and hns to
bo faithful to his calling by his Mas
ter to deliver the full message of the
gospel, so thnt his hands may be clean
from the blood of the unbelievers. Uy
so doing, sometimes people aro offend
ed, being that the preachers endeav
ors to expose their misdoings before
the congregation, Such things should
not be the nlm of any minister In the
pulpit of Christ.
But a guilty conscience mny be
touched by a sermon that the minister
had no thought of any exact person In
the congregation to bear upon. The
power of the gospel, as It Is the woru
of God, cannot but disturb" a guilty
conscience when they come In contact
with each other. Yet I have not heard
a word from our young people grumb
ling about the ministry; they are will
ing to their pastor to preach the whole
gospel ns It is In Christ. This Is to
your credit, my dear young people, nnd
for my encouragement as your pastor
In the Lord. I thank you for the at
tention given to my sermons nnd ex
hortations, trusting thnt nil shall be
for our everlasting happiness.
THEY ARE ADVANCING.
Allow me to say that you aro ad
vancing In Chrlstlnn life nnd in the
knowledge of your duties towards God
nnd man. It seems to me that you
comprehend the difference between life
nnd death In a spiritual sense, be
cause you are working In the church
of God, and work signifies the power
tnat moves man to love God and to do
His will. The pulpit thnt preaches a
living Christ, the people thnt aro be
lieving In a living Saviour, are always
pressing onwnr i nnd aro blessed by
God nnd good humanity.
In regard to the future wo cannot
Miy but a little. The future Is an un
known continent to the present, nnd
yet we have to prepare for the future
by doing the best of the present and Its
opportunities.
I have a few thoughts; T wish you
to keep them In mind during your
time on earth:
First Keep your places within the
Christian church and be faithful to the
end of your dnys. Wheresoever the
hand of Providence may lead you In
this world, keep in the love of God and
In touch with His people. We nre
talking of fortune In this world; It is
the greatest fortune that a young man
mny obtain in this world to be a life
worker In the house of the Lord. The
young person that has made a start
to be a Christian has the key of for
tune In his hand, the temple of knowl
edge Is open before him, nnd he has a
right to take hold of life everlasting,
which the world cannot give him.
Therefore keep yourselves In the love
of God and In His work to the end of
your days.
Second Think not thnt even the
church of God In this world It without
its troubles and trials. God Is nhvays
faithful to His word and promises.
But we are sinners, and It Is from our
misunderstanding of things and mis
doings that the the trouble comes now
and then to the church. But ns the
church grows more and more In the
truths of the Bible and In the love of
Its heavenly Father, those same things
aro falling away, and the time shall
come when the unity of saints on earth
will be more like unto the one above.
You young Christians should know
this and trust always In doing your
unties to God nnd your fellow men,
whatever the difficulties may be
among the children of God In His
church In the present time.
THE HIGHEST MOTIVES.
Third May wo all, young and old,
feel It an honor to do our best for God
and to save souls. AH that has been
done her during the past years, with
an eye upon the glory of God, It will
be for our benefit at the last Judg
ment, All we may have the opportun
ity of doing In the future upon the
same principle, it shall be n gem In
the crown of life given by God to tho
faithful. The glory of God should be
tho highest motive of every act of
Christian people, nnd the society that
rlseth for the glory of God must pros
per, must bo a blessing to the commun
ity, nnd It must bo a branch of the
true church of Christ that keeps the
salvation of the Lord before the peo
ple. "Days should speak and multi
tude of yenrs should teach wl.-dom."
Let them speak well of our doings ns
long ns God may spare us In the land
of the living. Multitude of years
should not go by without teaching
wisdom to our souls. My dear young
brothers and sisters In Christ, nt the
close of ten years of labor together,
may we renew our vows to the Lord,
"Forasmuch as ye know that vour
labor Is not In vain In the Lord,"
