HEV. BENNINGER'S sermon on
PARABLE OF THE SOWER.
First of a Series Preached In tho
Hampton Street M. E. Church.
Silver Wedding Anniversary of
Mr. and Mrs. Thomns Price, of
Bollevuc Forty Hours' Devotion
at St. John's Church Newu of the
Churches and Other Paragraphs of
Interest.
Rev. James Bennlngor, pastor of the
Hampton Street Methodist Episcopal
church, who has recently recovered
from a month's illness, preached the
llrst sermon yesterday morning In a.
new series. Ills subject was "The Par
able of the Sower," nnd his text was
taken from Matthew, xlli:l-9, 18-2.1. He
spoke, In part, as follows:
"The parable of the sower la one of
those living truths which must cer
tainly bring conviction to the human
heart. It is so plain, so terse, so like
Christ that the underlying thought is
bound to show us Just where we stani.
Wo love to have pleasant things said
about us, we love the thought of fame
and glory, but when we are not living
us we ought and our real condition Is
described, we go nwny sorrowful.
"The particular lesson whicli our
Savior wishes to enforce Is thut the
seed Is the word of God and the soil Is
human hearts. The parable then, re
duced to Its legitimate conclusion,
would be that the result of hearing the
gospel always depends upon the con
dition of the heart. As we come to
study the lessons of this parable, we
see it great many young people of
promising talents, of commendable
traits and of a generous disposition
make n 'goodly beginning, but end In
failure. The parable assures us that
the fault was not with Ood, the sower.
"Failure, then, Is not the work of
God. The seeds, had the properties of
germination, and if rightly cared for
they would have produced an abund
nnce of fruit. There are persons whose
religion is all outside. The marrow of
the gospel has never penetrated the
soul. The church is looked upon as a
necessary Institution, but the real
grandeur and sublimity of the Holy
Spirit never nil the soul. So In many
of our churches today the habitual
self-indulgence of some sin freezes over
the spirit with a covering of Ice so
cold that the seeds lie all frosted and
uncared for on the outside.
"The defeetsof charactermay be rem
edied by a patient cultivation of intelli
gent conviction. It Is far more import
ant to attend to the Instructions of the
Lord Jesus than to he wholly engaged
in the affairs of this world. The am
bitious man, striving for worldly ap
plause, lives an anxious, restless life;
he Is rady to seize on every favoring
circumstance to do good or evil. Wo
cannot altogether withdraw from the
world, and yet we must not be of the
world for Its sinful pleasures will prove
our ruin.
"They are sapping the very essence
of religion, they are choking the growth
of the word in the church, the week
day prayer meeting and robbing God of
immortal souls. To produce results in
religious or secular affairs we must
bear In mind two things attention and
meditation. The first of these is In
dlspenslble to success. Meditation is
another requisite. If we would get out
of religion that which will build us up
Into manly and commanding strength,
we must learn to meditate.
"Under the showers and summer
suns of divine grace the heart will
spread open, like a broad, luxuriant
field, to the ravs of the morning and
evening dews, the gospel will take root
and grow and only then and there will
it show what it Is."
