J,f of mluUtsrs t Nortbamptloa bit

cutta on the east of India to Kombay on the
west there Is not a neighhorhoo 1 but dlreetiy
or Indirectly feels the goipd power. The
Juggernaut, which did Its awful work for
centuries, a few weeks ago wsa brought out
from the place where It has for years been
kept under shed as a curiosity, and there
was no one rrerentlally to greet It. About

of Mohnmmndnnlsm will be turned Into a
Christian church. The last Kit IduK temple
will become n tortre.s of light. Tho last
idol of Ulndooitm trill be pltchoj Into the

The Christ wh came from the East will
yet bring nil the F.nst with Him. Of course
there are high obstacles to he overcome, and
great ordeals must be passed through before
the consummation, ns witnesstheAmenlnns

It Is not requisite that nrms bo sent there to

tho cities nro fucliugtho advantage of the
mighty movement. Let tip) good work go
on until the last municipal evil is ox
tirpntd. About llfteen vears ago the dis
tinguished olltor of a 'New Yoric dolly
nowspap-r Slid to mo In his editorial
room : "You ministers talk about evils of
which you know nothing. Why don't you
go with the officers of the law and explore
for yourself, so that when you preach ng ilnst
sin you can speak fro:n what you have seen
with your own eyes?" I s il l, "I will," and
In comp any with a commissioner of police
nnd a captain ol police and two eld'irs of my
chur th I exploro I thedeus nn 1 hiding places
of nil styles ol crime In New Yor and
preached n series of surtnons warning youni,
men and s itting forth the work that must be
done lest the Judgments of God whem this
city with more nwlulsufmiergoment thantho
volcnnlo deluge tn.it burled HeroulaneaT
and Pompeii. I received, ns nearly as I can
r. member, several hundred columns of nsws
pnperahuso for undortnklng that explora
tion. Editorials of denunciation, double
loaded, nnd with captions in great primer
tvpo, entitled "The Fall of T.ilmsg." or
"Talmage Makes the Mistake of Ills Life,"
or "Down With Talmage," hut I stlil live
and am In lull sympathy with nil movo.aeatj
formuuicipil piitiiu.ttlou.
Hut a movement whi ili on Is with crime
exposod nn l law cx 'cut.j.l stops half wty.
Nay, It stops lon b ifore .t g ts half way.
1 he law never yet saved nnyhndy, niver yet
changed anybody. Dreak up all tho houses
o! Iniquity in this city, and you only scud
the occupants to other citls. Lreaii down
nil tho policemen in New York, nud while It
changes their worldly fortunes It does not
change their heart or life. Tho greatest
wnnt In New York to-day Is the transform
ing power of tho gospel of Jesus Christ to
change the heart and tho tilo nnd uplift the
tone of moral sentlai4it nnd make m?n do
right not because they aro nfrald of Lu How
Street Jail or Sing Sfug, but beuausn they
love God and hnte unrighteousness. I have
never hoard, nor have you heard, of any
thing except the gospel that proposes to re
generate the heart, an 1 by the lufluuoe of
that reenerared heart rectify the life. Ex
euto tho law most certainly, but pr-ach the
gospel by nil moans In churches, lu theutres,
In homes, In prisons, on the land nu I on th i
sea. Tho gospel Is tne enly pow -r that euu
revolutionize society nnd save the world. Ail
e'gs Is half and half work an 1 will not lust.
In New York it has allowed men who got by
police bribery their thousands nn l tens of
thousands and porhaps hundreds of thou
sands of dollars to go e-ot Jreo, while some
who were merely the e.ifg p n- iiu,i a.,.tt of
nnbery nre srru ik with tin lightnings of th i
law. It reminds me of atcae lu Philadel
phia when I was living there, a poor wo
man had been nrrjst. nnl tried and Im
prisoned for selling mobi's.-s ciudv on Sun
day. Other lawbreakers had hum allowed
to go undl-turbo I, and tun grogshops were
open on the Lor I's D.iv, and tho law, with
its hands behind Its ha ;!.-, willtel up nn l
down the streets decilnln to molest'manv
ot tho off 'nders, but we nil rose up In our
righteous indignation, unit calling uuou nil
powers, visible nn I Inv.slhlo, to help us, w
declared that though the heavens full no wo
man should bo adowod to bull inolusses
can ly on Sunday.
A few weeks ago, after I hal pronehed In
oue of the eiiurnhes In this city, a man
staggered up ou th pulpit stairs, maudlin
drunk, t ayiug, "I am oae o' tuo reformers
that were elected to high oHie at tho last
election." I got rid of that "great reformer''
as soon as I could, but I did not get rid of
the impression that a man like that would
cure the nboailuntlons of New York about as
soon as smallpox would cure typhoid fevr
or a buzzsaw render Haydn's "Creation.'1
Polities in all our cities has bocotne so cor
rupt that the only difference between the
Hapubllcsn and Damoor.ttlo parties is that
each It worse than the other. Put wtut
nothing else in the universe can do the got
pel oau and will accomplish. "They snail
come from the West," and for that purpose
the evangelist lo batteries are plauted all
along the Pacific coast, as they urs plantud
all along the At lent io coast. . All the prol
rles, all the mountains, all the valleys, nil
theoitiss are under more or less gospel la
Huenae, and when we get anongh faith acd
consecretlon for the work this whole Ametl
cap, continent will t?rr oot for God. "Thiy
hall come from the West." '
The work is not so difficulty as many tup
pose. You say, "Therenre the foreign pos-
illations." Yes, but many of them are Hol
landers, and they were brought up to lo'o
aud worship God. and It will take but little
to persuade the Hollanders to adopt ths re
ligion ot their forefathers. Then there are
among these foreigners so many of tie

the Swiss, and they wre rocked la a cradle
under tho shadow of th Alps, that cathedral

M. "And Kimon Peter answered and said,
Thou art the ( urlxt, the Sou ot the living

Math. II., we see that "the Christ" ii synony

paring vers-s :)1 and St; of John x. we see
that In their eyes "the Son of Co;" me.nt
"eiual with (lo I." so that Peter's confession
meant nt lenut thus niueri : "Thou art the
King nt the Jews, the Divine Man to sit on

written lu I Cor. II.. U, 11. (tot only can

sau.e, lor the word translate! peter"
means a bit of ro.'k, u rolling stone, hut th
word translated ,-roek" means a clnT or
bu lge, a soli I rock. Tho church was not
to be built upon Peter, a rolling stone, but
upon the solid rock, Christ, whom peter
coulessi' 1 to bo the Christ, tne S :i of lio I.
Notice that thochurth was not. then, built
