I -Corinthian xllL,
w TjTtt "ror now
through a
glass, darkly, but
tben face to face."
Dr. Talmage pic
tures glowingly the
Happiness of the
future life.
The Bible Is the most forceful and
pungent of books. While It has the
sweetness of & mother's hush for hu
man trouble, It has all the keenness of
a sctraltor and the crushing power of a
lightning bolt It portrays with mora
than a painter's power, at one stroke
picturing a heavenly throne and a
ludgment conflagration. The strings
of this great harp are fingered by all
the splendors of the future, now sound
ing with the crackle of consuming
worlds, now thrilling with the joy of
the everlasting emancipated. It tells
bow one forbidden tree In the garden
blasted the earth with sickness and
4eath, and how another tree, though
leafless and bare, yet, planted on Cal
vary, shall yield a fruit which shall
more than antidote the poison of the
ither. It tells how the red, ripe clus
ters of God's wrath were brought to the
wine press, and Jesus trod them out.
ind how, at last, all iho go'.dvu chal
ices of heaven shall glow with the wine
of that awful vintage. It dazzles the
eye with an Ezekiel's vision of wheel
nd wing and Are and whirlwind, and
itoopB down so low that It can put its
;ips to the ear of a dying child and say,
'Come up higher."
And yet Paul, in my text, takes the
responsibility of saying that It Is only
tn Indistinct mirror and that its mis-
ilon shall be suspended. I think there
may be one Bible in heaven, fastened
to the throne. Just as now, in a mu
seum, we have a lamp exhumed from
llerculuneum or Nlueveh, and we look
t It with great interest and say, "How
poor a light It must have given com-
pared with our modern lamps!" so I
.hink that this Bible, which was a lamp
to our feet In this world, msy He near
"he throne of God, exciting our Interest
o all eternity by the contrast between
Its comparatively feeble light and the
Illumination of heaven. The Bible,
now, is the scaffolding to the rising
'.emple, but when the building Is done,
there will be no use for the scaffold
ng. The Idea I shall develop to-day Is,
' hat In this world our knowledge Is
comparatively dim and unsatisfactory,
but nevertheless Is Introductory to
grander and more complete vision.
This is eminently true In regard to
our view of God. We hear so much
ibout God that we conclude that we un
derstand him. He is represented as
having the tenderness of a father, the
firmness of a judge, the majesty of a
king and the love of a mother. We
hear about him, talk about him,
write about him. We lisp his name
In Infancy, and it trembles on the
tongue of the dying octogenarian.
We think that we know very
much about him. Take the attri
bute of mercy. Do we understand it?
The Bible blossoms all over with that
word mercy. It speaks again and
.gain of the tender mercies of God; of
the sure mercies; of the great mercies;
of the mercy that endureth forever; of
the multitude of his mercies. And yet
t know that the views we have of this
great Being are most indefinite, one
sided and incomplete. When, at death,
the gates shall fly open and we shall
look directly upon him, bow new and
surprising! We see upon canvas a pic
ture of the morning. We study the'
-louds In the sky, the dew upon the
grass and the husbandman on the way
to the field. Beautiful picture of the
morning! But we rise at daybreak
nd go up on a hill to see for ourselves
that which was represented to us.
While we look the mountains are
transfigured. The burnished gates of
heaven swing open and shut, to let past
a boBt of fiery splendors. The clouds
re all abloom, and hang pendent from
arbors of alabaster and amethyst The
waters make pathway of Inlaid pearl
for the light to walk upon, and there
Is morning on the sea. The crags un
cover their scarred visage, and there is
morning among the mountains. Now
you go home and how tame your pic
ture of the morning seems In contrast!
Greater than that shall be the contrast
.between this Scriptural view of God
and that which we shall have when
standing face to face.. This Is a picture
of the morning that will be the morn
ing Itself.
Again, my text Is true of the Sav
iour's excellency. By Image and sweet
rhythm rtf expression and startling an
tithesis, Christ is set forth his love,
his compassion, his work, his life, bis
leela, his resurrection. We are chal
, -barged to measure it, to compute It, to
eIgQ it In the hour of our broken
enthrallment we mount up Into high
experience of his lovs, and shout until
ihe countenance glows, and the blood
bounds, and the whole nature Is exhil--trated,
"I have found him!" And yet
it is through a glass, darkly. We see
-not half of that compassionate face.
We feel not half the warmth of that
loving heart We wait for death to
let us rush Into hie outspread arms.
Then we shall be face to face. Not
shadow tben, but substance. Not hope
then, but the fulfilling of all prefigure
snoot That will be magnificent un
' folding. The rushing out in Tie of
U bidden excellency, the coming again
of a long absent Jeetu. to saeet ns, not
in rage and la penury aae death, but
asaldst a licit and possp end outburst-

I ipon tha feet that were nailed; to stand
iilose np In tha presence of him who
grayed for us on the mountain, and
' Jiought of us by the sea, and agonised
tor ns In the garden, and died for us
n horrible crucifixion; to feel of hini
to embrace-him, to take his hand, tc
kiss his feet, to run our fingers along
the scars of ancient suffering, to say:
l 'This Is my Jesus! He gave himself
tor me. I shall never leave his pres
ence. I shall forever behold his glory.
I shall eternally hear his voice. Iord
Jesus, now I see thee! I behold where
the blood started, where the tears
souraed, where the face was distorted.
I have waited for this hour. I shall
never tarn my back on thee. No moro
looking through Imperfect glasses. No
more studying thee In the darkness.
But as long as this throne stands and
this everlasting river flows, and those
garlands bloom, and these arches of
victory remain to greet home heaven's
conquerors, so long shall I see thee,
Jesus of my choice, Jesus of my song,
Jesus of my triumph, forever and for
ever, face to face!"
The idea of the text Is Just as true
when applied to God's providence. Who
has not come to some pass In life thor
oughly Inexplicable? You say: "Wn.it
does this mean? What Is God going to
do with me now? He tells me that all
things work together for good. This
does not look like It" You continue
to study the dispensation and after
awhile guess about what God means.
"He means to teach me this. I think
he means to teach me that. Perhaps
It is to humble my pride. Perhaps it
Is to make me feel more dependent.
Perhaps to teach me the uncertainty of
life." But after all It Is only a guess
a looking through the glass, darkly.
The Bible assures us there shall be a
satisfactory unfolding. "What I do
thou knowest not now, but thou Shalt
know hereafter."
You will know v':-y
God took to himself that only rh
!:1.
Next door there was a household U
seven children. Why not take cue
from that group Instead of your cnly j
one? Why single out the dwelllie !n i
which there was only one heart beating
; responsive to yours? Why did God
'give you a child at all if he meant to
take It away? Why fill the cup of your
gladness brimming If he meant to d.',il
it down? Why allow all the tendrils
of your heart to wind around that ob
ject and then, when every fibre of yu..r
own life seemed to be interlocked
the child's life, with strong hand to
tear you apart, until you fall, bleeding
and crushed, your dwelling desolate,
your hopes blasted, your heart broken?
Do you suppose that God will explain
that? Yea. He will make it plainer
than any mathematical problem as
plain as that two and two make four.
In the light of the throne you will see
that it was right all right "Just and
true are all thy ways, thou King of
saints!"
Here is a man who cannot get on in
the world. He always seems to buy at
! the wrong time and to sell at the worst
disadvantage. He tries this enterprise
.and falls; that business and Is dlsap
' pointed. The man next door to him
has a lucrative trade, Dut he lacks cus
tomers. A new prospect opens. Ills
Income Is Increased. But that year his
family are sick, and the profits are ex
pended in trying to cure the ailments.
He gets a discouraged look. Becomes
faithless as to success. Begins to ex
pect disasters. Others wolt for some
thing to turn up; he waits for it to
turn down. Others with only half as
much education and character get on
; twice as well. He sometimes guesses
las to what it all means. He says:
"Perhaps riches would spoil me. Per
haps poverty Is necessary to keep me
: humble. Perhaps I might, if things I
were otherwise, be tempted into dlssl
patlons." But there is no complete so
; lution of the mystery. He sees through
i
a glass darkly and must wait for a
higher unfolding. Will there be an ex
planation? Yes; God will take that
! man in the light of the throne and
say: "Cblld Immortal, hear the expla
nation! You remember the falling of
I that great enterprise your misfortune'
'in 1857, your disaster In 1867. This U
the explanation." And you will an
swer, "It is all right."
I see, every day, profound mysteries
of Providence. There is no question
we ask oflener than Why? There are
hundreds of graves in Oak Hill and
Greenwood and Laurel Hill that need
to be explained. Hospitals for the
blind and lame, asylums for the idiotic
and insane, almshouses for the desti
tute and a world of pain and misfor
tune that demand more than hnman so
lution. Ah, God will clear It ell up.
In the light that poors from the throne,
no dark mystery can live. Things now
utterly inscrutable will be illumined as
plainly as though the answer were
written on the jasper wall or sounded
In the temple anthem. Bartlmeus will
thank God that he was blind, and Laz
arus that he waa covered with sores,
and Joseph that he was cast Into the
pit, and Daniel that he denned with li
ons, and Paul that he was humpbacked
and David that he was driven from Je
rusalem, and that sewing woman that
the could get only a few pence for mak
ing a garment, and that Invalid that for
20 years he could not lift hie head from
the pillow, and that widow that she bad
such hard work to earn bread for her
children. You know that In a song
different voices carry different parte.
The sweet and overwhelming part of
the halleluiah of heaven will not be
carried by those who rode In high plac
es ud gave sumptuous entertainments,
but pauper children will atng It, beg
gars will sing It, redeemed hod carri
ers will sing it, those who were once
the offscourlng of earth will sing It,
The halleluiah will be all the grander
for earth's weeping eyea and aching
heads and exhatsted
muttsU becks end sanrtyred ngoolee.
when applied to the enjoymento of tie
ighteous la heaven. I think we he e
iut little Idea of the number of t e
righteous In heaven. Infidels v r,
'Your heaven will be a very am 11
place compared with the world of t it
net;, for, according to your teachlsi
.he majority of men will be destroyed.
t deny the charge. I suppose, that tfcl
multitude of the finally lost, as coi
pared with the multitude of the flnejl,
laved, will be a handful I suppo
that the few sick people In the hospi
tal to-day, as compared with the hun
dreds of thousands of well people in
the city, would not be smaller tbsh
the number of those who shall be cast
out In suffering, compared with those
who shall have upon them the health
of heaven. For we are to remember
that we are living In comparatively
the beginning of the Christian dispen
sation and that this world is to be pop
ulated and redeemed and that ages, of
llsht and love ere to flow on. . If this
be so. the mulUtudes of the eavtd will
be in vast majority. -
Take all the congregations that have
today assembled for worship. Put them
together and they would make but a
mall audience compared with the
thousands and . tena of thousands
and ten thousand ' times ten thou
sand, and the hundred and forty
tnd four thousand that shall stand
wound the throne. Those flashed up
to beaven In martyr fires, those tossed
for many years upon the Invalid couch,
those fought in the armies of liberty
and rose as they fell, those tumbled
from high scaffoldings or slipped from
the mast or were washed off into the
sea. Tbey came up from Corinth, from
Laodlcea, from the Red Sea bank and
Gennesaret's wave, from Egyptian
brickyards, and Gideon's thrashing
floor. Those thousands of years ago
slept the last sleep, and these are this
moment having their eyes closed, and
their limbs stretched out for the sep
I ulcber.
A general expecting an attack from
the enemy stands on a hill and looks
through a field glass and sees in the
great distance multitudes approaching,
j but has no idea of their numbers. He
says: "I cannot tell anything about
them. 'I merely know that there are
a great number." And so John, with
out attempting to count, says: "A great
multitude that no msn can number."
We are told that heaven is a place of
happiness, but what do we know about
'happiness? Happiness in this world
Is only a half fledged thing a flowery
path, with a serpent hissing across It;
broken pitcher, from which the water
has dropped before we could drink It;
a thrill of exhilaration, followed by dis
astrous reactions. To help us under
stand the joy of heaven, the Bible takes
us to a river. We stand on the grassy
bank. We see the waters flow on with
ceaseless wave. But the filth of the
cities are emptied into it, and the
banks are torn, and unhealthy exhala
tions spring up from it, and we fall to
get an idea of the river of life in heav
en. We get very Imperfect 14pS of .the
reunions of heaven. We think qf some
festal day on earth, when father and
mother were yet living, and the chil
dren came home. A good time that!
But it had this drawback all were not
there. That brother went off to sea
and never was heard from. That sister
did we not lay her away in the fresh
ness of her young life, never more In
this world to look upon her? Ah, there
was a skeleton at the feast, and tears
mingled with our laughter on that
Christmas day. Not so with heaven's
reunions. It will be an uninterrupted
gladness. Many a Chrlslan parent will
look around and find all his children
there. "Ah!" be says, "can It be pos
sible that we are all here life's perils
over? The Jordan passed, and not one
wanting? Why, even the prodigal 1b
here. I almost gave him up. How long
he despised my counsels, but grace
hath triumphed. All here, all here!
Tell the mighty joy through the city.
Let the bells ring, and the angcla men
tion it in their song. Wave it from
the top of the walls. All here!"
No more breaking of heartstrings,
but face to face. The orphans that
were left poor and in a merciless world,
kicked and cuffed of many hardships,
shall join their parents, over whose
graves they so long wept and gaze Into
their glorified countenances forever,
face to face. We may come up from
different parts of the world, one from
the land and another from the depths
of the sea; from lives affluent and pros
perous, or from scenes of ragged dis
tress, but we shall all meet In rapture
and jubilee, face to face.
Many of our friends have entered up
on that joy. A tew days ago they aat
with us studying these gospel themes,
but they only saw through a glass,
darkly now revelation bath come.
Your time will also come. God
will not leave you floundering In
the darkness. You stand wonder
struck and amaied. Yeu feel as if all
the loveliness of life were dashed out
You stand gating into the opea chasm
of the grave. Walt a little. la the
presence of your departed and of him
who carries them la hie bosom you
shall soon stand face to face. Oh, that
our last hoar may kindle up with this
promised joy! May we be able to say,
like the Christian not long ago, de
parting, "Though a pilgrim, walking
through the valley, the mountain tops
are gleaming from peak to peak!" or,
Ilka my dear friend sad brother, Al
fred Cookman, who took his flight to
the throne of God, saying la his last
moment that which has already gone
