AUK MAKIKU WOULD HETTER II V TIIEtR OWN MVINQ-BUILDtNa CHURCHES, ASYLUMS, HOSPITALS AND HOMES Ol' HELP AND HEAV ENLY SUCCOR-ULTIMATE OF RE DEMPTION TO REDEEMED IS IM PLANTING OF OEItM OF LOVE FOR COD WITHIN THE SOUL. P.ov. S. F. Matthews, of the Seranton Street llaptlst church, preached nn eloquent sermon ut yesterday morn ing's service. The speaker drew his thoughts fiom that passage ot scrip ture found recorded by Paul, the npos tie. In his llrst letter to tho Corln thlanq, 11:9, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard; neither hath entered Into the heart of tnnn the things which God hath prepared for them thnt love Him." The congregation wns large. Tho choir rendered several fine nntheins. The sermon, In p.irt, Is ns follows: The words of tho text nre very remar kable as wo quoto them directly from the thought of Paul, as he seeks to open up to tho spiritual vision of the believer tho delightful future that awaits tho soul upon tho higher plunes of a redeemed celestial existence. What grand themes Paul presents In these simple letters to the churches. Themes that fven now 1111 tho soul with great deep, thrllllngs of Joy nnd hope; and that lift the Imagination up nnd on wings of insplratlonnl thought that cm brace time and eternity alike. The language of our text Is nbsolutely exhaustive In Its suggestlveness nf whnt Is to como In the divine unfoldment of nil things to tho soul: It Is corroborattvo of the fact that more Is hid In the ultl mates of salvation than the mere saving from a hell; It Is the suggestive reason ing on the apostles part of tho great Idea that tho love of God holds In reser vation great surprises of Ineffable Joy nnd perfection as tho result of redemp tion not to bo experienced here. CURIOSITY OF SOUL. The mind sometimes delights to dwell on the thought of whnt Is coming to us In the full fruition ot our future In heaven, and It Is a natural curiosity of tho soul. What dreams wo nil havo Indulged In, In regard to all that Is Implied In that word Heaven but here stands a Scrip ture that tells us "It has not entered Into our thought to conceive of wha God holds In reservation as a gift to those who love him," and It Is a curious statement a strange statement, indeed nnd yet what an overwhelming one of God's power to bless, enrich and cxnlt his redeemed children In the lifo which Is to come. It Is only by the power of comparison as Intelligent beings that we can under stand what Paul meant by this text, ami that comparison must bo within the cir cle of what wo know and can sense here, as human beings, for we cumin Imagine, that. In any possible future state, man shall be moro or less than man, or that his surroundings In Heaven shall he more nor less than what shall bo natural to the soul. The Uibln gives us no clue that even the future "Glory," whatever that means, shall rob us of our distinctive traits that adhere to eneh Individual soul and with which we have begun the lotind of con scious life. Therefore, the thoughts, that whatever Is of the best here, shall bo brlter hereafter the perfection itself ii." the full revelation of humanity in Its surroundings divinely placed. tty and through the earthly senses then, havo wo a clue to tho greater glory that remains to be developed hereafter Whatever the eye sees now that Is per fect relatively, shall be the more per feet In thu hereafter. As we take the physical of man, for Instance, while In the mass our physical forms are, through the Influences of sin, marred nnd broken, yet occasionally we see rare md perfect loveliness of form nnd featuro In both man nnd woman, nnd yet In Its highest earthly type. It Is and will be In ferior to tho shapely beauty and grace with which all of God's children shall ba moulded when death has destroyed the outer sln-brulsed shell, and the spirit shall appear In Heaven for God to look upon and delight In. MENTAL STRUCTURE OF MAN. So In regard to the mentnl structure of man as we see him. In the mass men are mentally about the same, and .vn make ol that sameness a standard, but heio and there, uplifted from the mass, arc u few of rnro and wonderful gcnluspi, men In art like Raphael and Angelo; mm ir i h'lesophy lllte Hacon and Newton; ficu in statesmanship like Pitt and Web ster, orators and thinkers llko Chalmers rod Rcceher; the men nnd women who shine nnd glow In the power and excel lence of their mental gifts. The living eIdencc of higher possible standards of human endowment on higher plane") cf life such as the redeemed shall enjoy ns under the smile of God In a con genial home all souls shall reveal tholr best. So In regard to the disposition or Inward nature of the soul In Its relation morally to others, while tho mass may bo upon a plane of selfishness, there are excep tional cases of rare natural sweetness and self-denial, that Intimate tho possibility ot what n soul can be when It shall un fold beneath the eye and touch of God, So In regard to that beautiful expres sion of the soul wo call philanthropy or love of humankind. The mass may bo lost In one thought of self gain, self uplift, but, oh, what noble examples wo havo of a higher character poislblc In man when we think of Paul; of a John How ard; of an Elizabeth Fry; of a Florence Nightengale; of n Peabody. and then think of tho divine and holy philanthropy of Heaven, Its beautiful charity of love, when man shall rise above tho earthly serf -and bo the lover of his kind In Heaven, through developement. As we see mnn now. we see him sin scarred, battle-broken, wrecked nnd ruined, not as the glorious soldier when he entered tho Held of llfo In Eden's glories, And yet throughout the fall, there remains the power and possibility of attaining perfection hi tho restoration yet to he. This text has Its endorsement In nature herself. Ily care nnd culture what glor ies aro being revealed by the touch of love. As the florist tolls to unfold tho hidden possibilities within tho humble Mower, of advanced nnd still more per fect bloom, so thero Is to ho by dlvlno law under Heavenly conditions nn un foldment of mnn on a higher piano that shall astonish even man himself, THE GRAND CONCLUSION. Well does Paul exclaim, "It doth not yet appear what we shall be." Rut there comes the grand conclusion that wo shall bo like Christ, like Him us Ho appeared In His humanity to man, like Him ns Ho appeared In His divinity to tho en raptured John at Pntmos, and If Ho were but the "llrst fruits of them thut slept." What shall he tho nwakenlng Into llfo eternal from tho sleep of death, of those who shall awake in Ills liveliness and His character, ono with God? This great prophetic text gives us then an Intimation nf what wo shall bo when the curse shall be lifted from us and the God within us shall bo revealed. Thero Is nn explanation given In the verse that folows as n context. "Clod hath revealed them unto us by His spirit." This Is true! Thero conies unto ussplrltunllydeep Insights of Just such a place as tho rev elation unfolded to John und thero Is In every soul, new-born to God, Just such yearnings to be lltted for such a perfect heaven as God alono ran give, Tho unfoldlngs of ths religion of Jesus Christ leads to the preparation of what this text reveals. As nature unfolds by Judicious management, by culture, by tho uso ot appointed means to higher forms ot beauty nnd loveliness, so does tho nature ot man unfold upward, under tho Inlluenco of tho spiritual indwelling of Christ within the soul. Whnt u magnificent ince tho Christ In fluence, the Christ teachings and tho Christ redemption are bringing to tho front. Seo tho men nnd women thnt aro making tho world better by their own living. Seo the churches, nsylums, hos pitals, tho homes of help nnd Heavenly succor, springing up nil over tho world. In themselves tho beautiful results of beautiful souls, the presenco of tho spirit of Christ in redeemed men and Women, nnd what shall bo the place, tho home, the glorious sent where nil these shall bo ns one; where nil their nsplrntlons and thoughts shall ho glorified and snnc titled? Shnll It not he God's own abiding place? Where Ho shall bo the king and ruler and where, bathed In tho glory of his presence, they shall "grow In grnce nm: tno knowlcdgo of tlielr Lord" for ever nnd ever An unfolding nstnnlsh ti'tnt to themselves of tho power and lovo of God! THE SUPREMF WORD. Murk the supremo word that closes this text, ponder over It, It Is profoundly slg nlllcant. "Thnt lovo Him". All of this future In lis glorious verity to tho.e that lovo Him! Not to those that God loves. but that love hint. It Is tho answer of God tn affection, the answer of God to self-denial, feacrlflco and work for him. This supernal home, this glorious state, this wondrous unfolding nnd dlvlno de velopment, will not bo vouchsafed sim ply from mercy dlvlno to man; not even out of divine love to man, but by natural and divine law to thoso who aro fitted for It by loving God. What, then, Is the ultimate of redemp tion to us redeemed, but tho Implant ing of the gorm of "Love for God" within the soul. It Is the vltnl talent that God will ask for at last. Let lovo then bear Interest, let lovo Increase, let tho soul bear Its natural growth ot lovo to God. For at Inst this text In all of Its fulness will apply to you, for to your lovo wilt como tho place, tho condition, stato that "Eyo hnth not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered Into the heart of man, tho things which God hath pre pared for them that love him" Oh, supreme, vital question! Do You Lovo God? ADDRESS OF REV. MR. IIUQIIES. Dollvcrod nl the Afternoon .Mooting ol thu It. It. V. .11. C. A. Rev. Jnmes Hughes, Into of South Af'-lna. addressed a largely attended meeting nt tho Railroad Young Men's Christian association yesterday after noon. He spoke, In part, as follows: Gentlemen I am pleased to meet you this afternoon and I hope wo shall havo a pleasant and profitable service. I shall not take a text, neither shall I deliver a long address. I shall try to give you a short, straight talk; short, because 1 de sire you to take part In tho service, und becauso I wish to avoid giving you Indi gestion by n too lavish use of my nos trums; straight, becauso hard-headed, working men, endowed with sixteen ounces to tho pound of good common sense, hate circumlocution, red tape, or firing Into tho ulr instead of aiming at the bull's eye. Urother men, we are here to worship God and to assist each other to live a good Christian life. If this be so. I havo before mo men who aro animated by tho loftiest nnd noblest purpose. Such men havo a back bono In their lives. This Is a very gratifying fact. There are so many who have not only no back bone purposo In life, but they havo no bone nt nil. They belong to the moluscus species who aro boneless, nnd will therefore go with uny current. Or they uru like that class of men once described by John Ilrlght in tho British Parliament, who compared them to a Scotch teirler dog whose head was not distinguishable from his tail. A GRATIFYING FACT. It Is gratifying to find n man who do"s not tequlrci to bo labeled like a ilru store bottle In order for you to know what ho Is. Spurgeon said when ho com menced dabbling in the fine aits he some times drew tho picture of a house and then a horse, but they wos so much alike thnt he found It necessary to write the word house under the one nnd the word horso under tho other, or people would bo liable to take the house for tho horso nnd the horse for the houe. Let us so live that It shall not be neces sary to label us that others may know what we are. Tho next thing I want to say Is this, ns you havo such n noble purposo In life stick to It. Re constant In tho pursuit of It. Hend all your energies to attain this great goal of your sacred purpose Don't allow your ardor to fluctuate and change with that mercurial esthetic llfo of Inflated pride so very common In this world. Hut let thero he a constant "peg ging at It" as the great nnd good Abra ham Lincoln used to say. Fitful men never uttafii much. They nre always be rlnnlng. They climb a certain distance nnd then slide back. Then they start ngaln nnd thus they aro nlways beginning but they never advance. Like the sys tematic who'd they nro ever In motion, but ulwnys In the same place. Then again If tho desire to" worship God nnd to do good to others exist within us we shall manifest this by putlng forth efforts for tho benefit of others und by endeavoring to adore the Great Creator. PLENTY OF ROOM. Such exertions will not only please the Lord nnd benefit man, but it will tend to increaso our usefulness and strengthen our piety. Thero is ample room for this kind of work. Thero aio thousands In this town who never nttend a place of worship. They seem to llvo outside tho direct Influences of tho Gospel of Christ. If they do not como to the chinch, then tho church must go to them. It would be well for us tn consider the best way to approach such people. Tho man who goes fishing pays considerable attention to the bait. Ho duly consldo-s what Is likely to provo successful. Wo should set before such people a little practical kindness. A empty handed charity Is a very cold and ineffective thing, tho cup without tho cold wntor Is a cheap, empty sham. There Is a lot of religion In n pound of meat and a loaf of bread when accompanied with a kind look and a kind word. LEADERSHIP PF THE SON. Socond Sermon ol Ilia Series De Hrored br l!'v. F. W. liippeu. In the second of a erlcs of sermons by Rev. F. W. Whlppen, of All Souls' church, on tho five points of universal Ism tho topio yesterday was 'Tho Spiritual Authority and Leadership of tho Son, Jesus Christ. Tho preacher took for his text. I John, lv:0, "in this wns manifested the lovo of God to ward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son Into the world that we might live through Him." The sub stance of the sermon was ns follows; Tho center of vision for us today Is Jesus Christ as ho Is portrayed In the New Testament. His followers often called him tho Son of God nnd we join with them, llo Is tho Son of God as Is no other. There Is only ono "Son of God." Thero Is only one "Son of Man." Thcso phrases distinguish Him from tho world of humanity and put Him Into a class of hi own. One element of Ills peculiar sonshlp Is His perfect character. Another Is his pre-exlstenee. Another still Is suggested by the fnct that He wus sent. No mnn ever came with work to do that In quality or quantity Is to bo compared with his. WHY WE ACCEPT HIM. If wo cannot tell Just how It is, tho Now Testumcnt makes it plain that Jesus Christ In some vital particulars Is to ho looked ut apart from men. And wo ac cept Him as ono having authority. Ho Is God's agent, God's messenger tho Father acts through Him. Ho bus con fided to Him all things. Wo accept Him ns ono who knows when He tells us His great truth that God loves us, Ho tells us n fact nnd not a. longing or a dream. Ho knows fellowship with God. Ho Is In tho society of God always. Ho knows righteousness. He never confuses values. And wo accept Him as our lender. Wo see his rivals. Selfish desire Is one. Tho urgency of friends Is another. Even an appreciation of conscience may bo an other. Wo believe In tho leadership ot Jesus Christ. He Is n perfect teacher, by precept and by example. No moro per tinent question can be raised tn tho fneo of temptations nnd tho perplexing cir cumstances of our dnys than the ques tionWhat would Jesus Christ do In my enso? "In Ills Steps" Is a most timely book. Whnt did Ho do7 Ho kept tho commandments. He went about doing good, He asserted himself for humanity, Ho devoted himself to Ills saving work. He was absolute, master of Himself, Ilecause of nil this. His obe dience, Ills love, His self-renunciation, we accept Him as our leader. WHY HE OHEYS. Rut this is not all. Think how It Is In battle. Tho sotdlcr does not obey his chief simply because his chief has fought valiantly, Tho personal element enters In. Tho soldier Is nttraeted to his chief. Tho really Rront lender of armies leads by tho power of nersonnl magnetism. In ono wuy or another ho makes his sol diers feel not abstract duly, but him: nnd he lends them whither soever he will "Into the Jaws of death; Into the mouth of hell; hecnuso they nre hound to him. It Is like this with the leadership of Jesus Christ. Ho has power because ot touch with Him. More than of precepts, more than of example, Ills leadership ot a Godlike soul. Each soul must sooner or later enlist under His banner nnd look to His face for hope and light nnd march to victory Inspired by Ills voice. Wo havo the assurance that "every knee shall bow and every tonguo confess that Jesus Christ Is Lord, to the glory of God tho Father." ABDATII NEWS NOTES, Rev. J. T.
