Followlnir Is n sketch of a norrmn delivered by llev, W. A. Carrlngton, Jiewly-clected pastor of tho Forest City Presbyterian ohuroh, on Sunday Inst. "Math. 1.21. 'And thou shall call his name Jesus for he shnll sae Ills peo ple from their sins.' "The liestowmont ot n suitable name upon tho new born child is one of Hie first questions which perplexes Its won dering parents. "Tho name," says Cnrlyle, "Is tho earliest garment you wtnn around the eaith vlsltlhff one to which It thenceforth cleaves mora tenaciously than the very skin." Oh', the Influenco of names! Call one ti thief, f,ays the proverb, nnd he will steal, Thus do pious or ambitious par entis often seek to mark out the destiny of their child, by stamping It with tome Illustrious or suggestive name, which' It la fondly hoped will becomo Inwrought Into character and life. In Hrasdl the name of soma saint venerat ed among the people Is given. Buch a catalogue of names would furnish a ery sura Index to tho popular Ideal. Among ourselves we are governed more by fancy or ns.soclnllon than by tho significance of the name bestowed. Originally, however, all names were significant. This was particularly so among the Hebrews, where the name of the child originated In some Incid ent or circumstance connected with Its blith, expressing some atttlbute of God such as his power or condescending mercy, or was a devout expression of thanksgiving to tho great parent of every good and perfect sift. smwFicANcn of names. "Thus Moses Is from an Egyptian root, Mosheh, which means "brought forth," or dtawti out of the water. Hun nah called her first born Samuel, "heard of God." Jud.ah signifies "pralsV The names of the Hebrew people are a re markable monument to their peculiar calling as a nation, and to their rich devotional spirit. And thus with this nnme .of Jesus, which Is n'mve every name as hW conception wits by the overshadowing of the Almighty and nil the circumstances of his birth, of di vine ordering, so was not even his name left to him an Ingenuity or pious sentiment, but was angel sent and an gel given. "His namo Is not a mere verbal ap pendage to distinguish him from his fellows, but describes him In his great central character ns the Savior and Redeemer of mankind. He has many names in Scripture, but none other v hlch so clearly defines hla mission to seek and to wave that which was lost' His moral chnrnctei and spotless life aio worthy of Infinite praise, but his name fixes our gaze upon him as our great atoning Sav lor. Hence among all the names of Chrlit this will shine throughout all eternity as that which distinguishes him from all creation, a name Infinitely pieciuus to the re deemedJesus the Chilst, for he has saved us from our sins. To the ic deemed ftoul no other name suggests such a delightful train of holy remlnlsi cence, from no other name has so much been derived, In no other name Is felt Mich unwavering confidence, and to no other name is directed such well founded hopes, "All hall," then, "the power of Jesus' name, Let nngpls prostrnto fall. Bring forth tho roj al diadem And crown Him Lord of all. Let every kindled, every tllbo On this terrestrial ball, To Him nil malesty ascrlbo And crown Him Lord of all." "Our text points to him us the only Savior. Jesus In contradistinction to every other savior. By ono stroke of the pen every 'refuge of his' Is swept away, every false rest, every deceitful mirage, Jesus, not this church, or that creed or that ceiemony, but Jesus only, Is our divinely appointed Savior fiom the sin which Infests the heart, and casts its mournful gloom over the life. Or SALVATION "This balvation Is a double one, from the guilt and eventually from the power of bin. In the gift to this world of God's onlv fcon, we behold our only hepe, In him our great atonlnpr satil- fl e by which our guilt Is purged away, and the enormous debt which we owed to justice because of bioken law, and which retielered us hopelessly Insolvent, cancelled forever. But salvation fiom the guilt und eternal consequences of sin Is only one result of that gieat work of redemption, Immortalized by the name of Jesus. He saves his peo ple not o'llv from the guilt of sin, but 'Jrom their sins.' Fake religion, how ever brilliantly It may declaim, seeks to save men in their sins. True rellg li n ever keeps befoie It one constant purpose, the complete emancipation of 11 an fiom his sins, sin is detluoned the moment one hands over the keys to his heart and life to the Lord Jchus Clutst, but Its continued piesence Is a eonttant menace to the believer's frecur Ity and happiness, and against It ho must wtgo n life-long conflict In the first enthuslnsm'of the Christian life, si i hides Its head In shame, but it piesenlly comes forth from Its lurking places, hoping by some sudden stroke or skilful Btintegy to regain Its lost ascendancy, "In that stubborn conflict Jesus chnrrplons our cause, by furnishing us In his Word with the armor of his truth, by endowing us with his Spirit, anl bv so overruling temptation that ho will not Buffer us to be tempted above that we are able but will with the temptation make a way of escape that we may bo able to learn It.' OUR DUTY DEFINED. "In this life work the divine and human must co-operate. It is our duty to crucify sin so far as we recognize It In our life, to avoid unnecessarily ex posing ourselves to temptation but 'being In to bear It that the opposer may beware of thee,' and to arm our Belves with the whole armor of God as St, Paul directs In the sixth chapter of the Epheslans, that we may 'withstand In tho evil day.' "So helping ourselves Jesus will be present with his almighty power to en nble us to lead victorious lives over sin and finally completely emancipate us from Its thraltdoin, presenting us 'faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding Joy,' The ring ing chorus of heaven will be 'unto him who hath redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, und tongue, and people, and nation; and hast tnaelq u unto our God kings and priests.'
