Ph'lmepia.-The fr. Dr. Torrey, the great revivalist. on Sunday d-iv ered a compelling sermon entitled "One 1'ser Worse Than Twelve Whisky Fiendie. Ills text was Acts xxii.. 1; "And nowx, why tarriest ttout? A"ie and be baptized. washing away thi sins. ealling on the name of the Lord. WIiv tarriest thou':" It was God who tsked that question of Sau! of Tarsus. who. as you will remewer, w:is a Post hiter e(emi3y o'f Christ: I doubt if Jslus Christ ever h'ad a inre bitter enemy, a more deterined, more relentess enemy than Saul of Tarsus. Saul of Tar.us sinerely believed that Jesus Christ was ain imuposter, That ls claim to 1,e the Son of Go;d was a false ciaim. :n lhe ha ted Himat with all the inttensity of 1 sincere soul. There were times when the thought woukl come st.aling into Saul's soul, "Per haps He is the Son of God." Espe eiily vlein Saul stood and saw Stephen stoned to death and heard Stephen's dying testimony. "I see the Heavens opened and the Son of Manl stands on the right hand of God." the thought came to Saul, "Does he really see Him? Is :iesus really the Son of God'" But Saul would not listen to these suggestions. He kicked against the goal and be came all the miore bitter against Christ in his enmity. because there was L lurking suspicion that he was wrong. He breathed an atmosphere of threat ening slaughter. He went down into the streets of Jerusalem. going from house to house. dragging from their homes iten, women and children, spar g neither age nor sex. all those who ,,rofessed belief in Christ: he dragged them to be tried and punished. to be put to death, and if anyone was to Ie killed he always voted for thei: death. until at last he had exhausted all his opportunities for persecution of the Christian people of Jerusalein. but he t had not exhausted his hate of Christ. He beard that 130 miles away from Jerusalem at Daniascus there were other Christians. and his heart went out in bitter hatred toward those Chris tians he had never seen. So he went to the High Priest and asked the au thorities to allow him to go to the city of Damascus and to do what he had done in Jerusalem. They were only too pleased to allow him to go. so he started on the long. weary way to Da tuaseus. hurrying there. neither stop ping for the intense noonday heat. but pressing eagerly on. so intensely did he hate the Soi of God. t And now he has almost reached Da nascus: he stands on the last foothill I ant sta(Is looking down into the vali. ley at Damaseus. Daunscus was a city noted throughout the ancient world for its beanty. But as he stood there looking at the beautiful city Saul <iid not think of its beauty. but of th thousands of Christians there whom he wished to drag from their homes to death. As lie was standing there, there sId denly shone around him a light brighter than the sun. and in the midst t of that light the brightest and most wonderfni face and form that Saul had ever seen appeared. It was Jesus. With a cry Saul fell on his face to the 1 grotund. and out of the cloud came a< ocesaying. "Saul, Saul, why perse-1 Fromn humbled man catme back the answer. "Wh~o art Thou. Lord?" Back comes the crashing response. "I am Je:<us. wvhom thou persecutest." 1 And now from a thoroughly humbled mant came tihe answer. "What would you have mie to do?' "Arise; get on thy feet and go into Damascus, and there thou shalt be told what thou shalt do." He arose, and found himt self totally blind. and thus he entered; the city wihere he had expected to come; as a coBnoueror'. bld,1 helpless as a1 cripple, where he spent three (lays and1 three nights fasting and praying. But1 stiil he did not accept Chtist. Christ sent a certain disciple to Saul: with the question. "Why tarriest thou?: What are you waiting for? You know 1 I am the Son of God: why don't youi arise and be baptIzed in your accept ance of Me' I am going to ask that question of every man and woman in the building to-night. "Why tarriest thou?" There are a great many in this build ing to-night who in their secret hearts believe in ('hrist. buot hav~e never conen ly professed that faith in Him. Why tarriest tuhtu? What are you waitingI for? Why don't you accept Christ to night? Whly don't you putbiiely con fees your anecepitnce of Christ to-nigeht? I wish it were? pCssible for me to dc seemid from tis imiit to-night and go from seat to seat. fr'om man to inan. womt:ux to womanui who has not publicly accepted Christ and put to them the question, "Whty tarriest thou' I btelieve that if T could do so that almoost every man and woman who is otut of Christ in this great building would be brought to Him to-nigcht: But that is imtpossihle. so the next best thing to do is for you to forget that I amt spymmir to a great congregation lhere. ati .iust think you and I ar" hav ing a per'sonalI talk together, atnd that I amu askting the question.
