science under tho pica of Inability to
lefoim himself because his lathci was a
bad man befoio him, which would bo
equal to ajing that It would not be his
fault If be weie tranfoimed into a devil-
that it "eternally lost," Uod would be
too blame.
Jesus Chi 1st, in all His dhcoutsoi, com
bats this mistake. Ho sajs: "Come,
choose j.e, lepcut; believe, slilve, aslc,
knock" Man is a fieo agent, jet ho Is
held as an accountable being, nnd it Is
made veiy clear that If any man petlsa
he will polish thiough his own lault.
"No man," sajs a gieat w.Itct, "can
choose his own patents, but ho can cIioojo
his own cnvliomnent," th.it Is, he can
choc-e whether he makes his life nilsei
able, oi whether he makes it happy, foi
his liberty of action is never Intel feied
with, piovldlng he keeps within tho
meaning ot the law of tho land.
Men who wish nnd wait to thiow off an
evil habit aie, destitute ot any settled
pilnclplfs, nnd they make a fatal mistake
if tliev think that hot edit v lelieves them
fiom individual lesponslblllty. Let them
fiee themselves fiom nil inheiltqd Inbied
foes, by accepting the giace of God, and
becoming conqueiois ovei self.
Again, individual lespoiT-lbillty Is nec
essity in tho matteis ot homo lllo, that
our manner nnd conduct be such as will
lead the joung Into contempt of l eli
sion, which Is cnsllv done If they see no
tince of its povvei In the spiilt and con
duct of their eldeis. Theio Is no better
way of effecting their spliltual uiln than
bv leading them to conclude that wa .lie
cither lank hjpnciites. or that thcie is
no tealltv lu out icllglon.
An athlete, when tialnlng foi a con
test, lends n tempeiato life, and masteis
himself In all things, In oidei lo biing
his body into subjection for tho puiposo
leriultcd. So the Cluistlnn woiks out his
own salvation with fear and tiembllng
"running that be may win" Paul sajs,
"Ve see jour calling ttaln for it."
When J on have foiglveness, jou havo
lest of soul, and von look bcliovlngly on
the ci lidded Saviour, and the cxeiclsa
of faith will glvo solidity to your chat ac
tor and strength to your life and victory
In tho dav of tilal.
1 seo men hole today who doubtless ara
noble examples men, who In the veiy
whlil ot nolsv commorco never lose sight
of individual lesponslbllltj. They mo
like the tiusty pilot who, though his
e.ves aie on the stais, he keeps his hand
on tho helm. Such men havo the nsur
suianco of God's power, which Is seemed
to them bv l chance on tlio piomlses ot
Ills woid and tho indwelling of tho Spiilt
of Chi 1st.
THE SUCOND PRINCIPLE.
I shall now call jour attention to tho
second pilnciplo in my text, "Tho abso
lute need of piivato judgment." "Judgo
jo what I s.ij" "So many men," said
Loid Bacon, "so many opinions." Theio
aio many icllglons in tho woild, nnd each
claiming to bo tho best, if not tho only
ti no ono, and as our Blblo teaches us
that out belief or ptnctlco in this llto
has a gieat deal to do with our happi
ness oi mlseij' In tho llfo to come, it 1
of tho deepest linpoitauce to Know which
Is tho right one; and as God is tiuth, It is
tho duty of all to seen the until and to
hold fast to It.
Bishop Butler, wbea emoiglng fiom
bojhood to munhood icsolved to mako
tho seaich lot ttutli tho business ot his
me, ituiieiH leboiutiou may bo emu
lated by us with plcnsuie and veiy gieat
benefit, because, to oxeiclso tho lenson
lug power given us is tho duty of ovuiy
man.
Evcty man should Judgo for himself
fiom a piofosscd tegatd to tho Sciiptuto
exchislvo of any other influence, as their
only i ulo of faith, consistent with tho
lino qpillt of tho Gospol and accept no
evidence but that found In tho woid of
God,
Theio aio-many people In tho chinch,
who havo no teal conception of tho lo
llglon they piofess. Their tiust Is n out
wind oidlnances. They aie sober peoplo,
vhtuous and Just, attend cveiy set vice,
join heattlly in all that Is going on.
They huuy homo fiom tho punctual',
conscientiously believing that they havo
peifoimcd all that Is rrn.ii lied of them.
On tho toad they meet mi intellectual
highwayman wjio leeklessly lovols tho
pistol of loglo at their heads and thoy
bepomo helpless, not because, they had
no icasonlng power, but, hecnuso they
never exercised that powei they noycr
Judgo for themselves. Such conduct gives
but a slight, if any evidence at all, of
tho excellency of their faith or Its reality.
Theio Is another reason why private
judgment Is essential, and that reason Is
because tho whole system of revealed
religion Is examined and misapprehended
as a well concerted system of falsehood
that tho world created itself, nnd man
left at large to blunder his way thiougli
llfo without any given law or i evolu
tion. Many of the philosophic alms aio
to iuiagino facts and eurptcsslng si cat
moral truths, to prove that there Is no
God. Wo aio told that nil that ctecps
and walks on tho cattli and everything
wo seo at on nd us ovolvcd from snmothlng
clso veiy different and veiy Inferior
that man still bears In his bodily foim
tlio Indelible stamp ot his lowly origin.
In picking upon your attention, tho nh
soliito need of pilvfatc Judgment, It must
not bo iindetstood us an encouragement
In bi'omo presumptuous "fico-thlnkcts,"
who think and say that this woild of
matter Is the only woild, and that our
Blblo Is ir mvthlcat atorj Hut I want
jou, befoto accepting any ono system In
any tltcoiy to think and Judgo for j our
selves. I want jou to believe that tho
Bible contains not nulv nil account of tho
development of the human tnco lu Its
religious emotions, but containing God's
gloat pui poses, as a dlvlno lovclatlon
which was never mine mlnhty, moro In
fluential, and moio tiuly living than to
day. "Judgo yo what 1 say."
Judgo for yourselves nnd hi lug your
minds Into contnet oulv with the gieat
centtal pilnciples of tho faith we be
lieve. Again, pilvate judgment Is tccom
mended In Scilptme. Chi 1st wnined tho
people against falso prophets. Ho ap
pealed to their pilvate judgment when
Ho asked, "Do men gather grapes oft
thorns, or fig oft thistles?" Paul advo
cates It In my text, and St. John iccom
mended tho same thing. Ho sajs, "Be
lieve not eveiy sphlt, but try tho splilts
whether they nio of God," Paul again
tells us not to despise philosophizing, jot
ho saj's, "prove all things." Hint Is,
judge for j-onrsclves whether that which
yoti aio asked to believe Is true or false,
nnd when jou havo piovcd It to bo tine
ho tells jou to "hold fast to It."
Pilvate judgment Is ignmed bj- somo
people, especially by the Romish chinch,
whole tho woid of God Is lead In a dead
language, nnd whoio the membeis nie not
permitted to judgo for themselves, on tho
giound that moie haim than good would
result from lending tile Bible In the vul
gar tongue. Now, under such a cunning
pietext mm In shorn of his God-given
privilege nnd lobbed of his only hope in
life and in death.
MAN HAS SUFFERED.
Is Is not truo that ncatlj- everj GodJ
given pilvllege or blessing has been moio
or less iiDMUii.aiui tnnt man lias suitcitu m
consequcnce7 Is not Individual and na
tional Htiength and wealth a blessing?
Yes, but that same becomes a curso when
used to tjranlzo over tho wenk. Tho
most educated Is said to demand evi
dence ot ceitnln statements In the Bible,
but no man can conscientiously deny that
the gieat Chiistian tiuths which me tlio
centei and souieo of moinl life lenovnt
Ing powei aie capable of distinct state
ment. We onnnot te-lntoi prolate and force
the statements to give utteiances to our
own wishes, and woik them out to our
own Ideas heedless of their tuto mean
ing. The facultv of weighing complica
tive testimony and assign to every sub
ject its collect bodies, and a right judg
ment In matteis spliltual Is the outcome
of a light Knowledge of God, because
theio can bo no tiuly moial obedience
which Is not the cheerful jleldlng of
the sphlt to what It conceives to be good
nnd ti ue.
Some gieat minds havo transmitted a
eiieumstnnee Into a ft lend or seivnnt,
com ting the favor of one nnd compelling
the allegiance of the other, but they
know nothing of the spliltual llfo which
Is within: but when in addition to mental
power thej- show moial foicc, thej- le
allze Chtlst in their heaits and tliev defy
all speculation and fashionable opinions
which pass awav like chare befoie the
wind. Such tile the men who judge lor
themselves and ultimately they will bo
able to sav, "Wo have piovcd all things,"
and we shall hold fast to that which is
good.
Laplace was a gieat scientist and he
llkid to boast that be had scanned tho
whole heavens with his telescope, but
found no God. He was a clever man,
but tho name of God was to him a name
without a meaning. No man can piovc a
negative nelthet can he dlspiove tho
tiuth. but he i.m endeavor to persuade
us tbllt the tiuth lq n lie. 'Hint- w.i th
nim nr Liiiinov nnri it lo fi. , ti,i
mat some people aim at totlaj-; but you
do not believe them until jou havo
weighed the mattei judge for jourselves.
We aie told that sckncp lias exploded
this and the othei ; but take no heed of It,
and if jou think for jouiselves jou will
find that science and lev elation .no on
the best of tcims, at any rate.Chiisttanity
hns nothing to fear fiom science. Mathe
matics cannot piove or dlspiove the
Dlvinitv of our Saviour. Chemlstiy can
not dispiovo the existence of God. Sci
ence is of tho enith, r.nthv, and nd
diesed to sight alone, but our business
13 to grasp the spliltual bv faith, because
If Laplace saw God In the toim he de
plited to see Him, he would hnvo died on
the spot, for "no man can see God and
live." It is not what silence proves or
disproves. It is not what tho woild sajs
or believes, but the all impoitnnt point Is
this, AVtint tliiiiK vo or Clnlst, of the Al
mighty God, whose goings foith have
been of old, fiom evci lasting to ever
lasting. God knows how fceblo wo aie, nnd Ho
peiceivcs that our conception nnd pei
ccption nnd disci limitation of tight nnd
wionff Is fault-. Ho knows how toady
wo aio to polish up n l usty erior till it
shines lll.e tiuth Itself, and His foie
knowledgo of our feelings caused Him to
piovldo us with a stundaid of truth. Tho
Bible which passes as iioa into a man's
blood and gives vigor to his will.
When men Know what Is light they
will lespect It and when thej lovo what
Is tight thej will clotho It with the pure
affections of tho hcait nnd tho more en
lightened Is the conscience, the moio nf
fectlon.ito will bo tho lojalty to right
doing and a gieat moial powei Is called
foi th into existence, and man will leave
all new speculation nut of their calcula
tions, waiting for tlmo nlono to icilfy
nil staitling statements.
A WONDERFUL BEING.
Mnn Is a wonderful helnc (and ho
knows It. too), Ho holds within himself
tho seeiot of his power to enlist and act
upon gicutcr foices and adapt them to
his senile, and as he glows In mental
disci Imluatioii ho acqulies knowledgo and
an Insight into the secict woi kings of
this woild of matter, but an ublo white
says, "No phjbir.il oje, hovvover scien
tifically tinlued can discern the tiuths of
tho atonement nt Justification by fultii,
oi tho Immmtnlity of tho soul, no Helen
tlllc test, however delicate, can dlscciu
tho ptesenco of God as It dlscoveis a cui
icnt of magnotlc or elcctile fotce."
Judgo for join solves, vvhetlici you enn
or cannot seo God or discern tho pies
enco of God In nil things in nature, In
tho battle of life jou will be tempted to
disbelieve, but the safeguard against the
temptation Is not a llfo of seclusion, hut
solf-culttuc. It is not the tulcs of life
that will sticngthcn you against it but
a stinng soul.
When jou go homo this evening or nny
other tlmo Just shut j-ouiselt up for a
llttlo whllo and lead your Blblo nnd medl
nto upon what jou lead. Do not lead
for the sake of lending but read for the
puiposo of undeistaiidlng what jou do
tend, and you will Hud an Incicaso of tho
Inner llfo, You will find In a short tlmo
that theio is not a woid of Clulnt's teach
which tho piogiess of science has ex
ploded. By this, and much pinjer, legulnted
and dhected by that sense which jou
hnvo of tho slit and mlsciy which jou
confess, and by tho habit of nnblo deeds,
nnd high thinking, and piuo fellowship,
you will build up a moial condition. And
by meustiting all things by this stauilnid
of tiuth. weigh all by its Just weight,
and piove all by Judging for j'ourselvcs,
with such a "coat of mall," jou will date
to be a Daniel, daio to stand alone, dare
to have a puiposo true, and date to muko
it known.
