The man who wrote this was at one time a W practicing physician. at another time a talV lented painter, at another time a powerful J (preacher, at another time a reporte ?-an in ppirea reporter, won oiess ana neip aau inspire all reporters! From their pens drops the health or poison of Nations. The name of this reporter was Lueanus. For short he jwas called Luke, and in my text, although stenography had not yet been born, he reports verbatim a sermon of Christ whioh in jono paragraph bowls the roand world Into ?he light of the millennium. "They shall come from tho East, and from the West, and from the North, and from the South, and ?hall sit down." | Nothing more Interested me fn ray recent (Journey around the world than to see the phlp captain about noon, whether on the jPaciflo or the Iudian or Bengal or Mediterranean or Red Sea. looking through a inaatlcal instrument to llnd just where we {were sailing, and It 13 well to know that, though the captain tells yoa that there are jthirty-two points of division of the compass para in tne mariner s compass, mere arc only four cardinal points, and my text hails thorn?the North, the Soath, the East, thi iWest. 801 spread out before us the map of the world to see the extent of the gospel Campaign. The hardest part of the field to jbe taken is the North, because our gospel is an emotional gospel, and the Nations of the lar North are a cold-blooded race. They dwell amid icebergs and eternal snows and (over lasting winter. Greenlanders, Laplanders, Icelanders, Siberians?their vehicle 1 Is the sledge drawn by reindeer, their apj parol the thlo est furs at all seasons, their [ existence a lifetime battle with the cold. IThe winter charges upon them with sworJs [ pf icicle and strikes ihem with bullets of hail m [and pounds them with battling rams of glaW pier. . ; But already the huts of the arctic hear ^ jthe 6ongs of divine worship. Already the r snows fall on open New Testaments. Already the warmth of tbe sun of righteousness begins to be felt through the bodies 1. and minds and souls of the Hyperboreans. |> Down from Nova Zembla, down from Spltzbergen seas, down from the land of the midnight cun rtnwn frr?m tha nalnees Of crVstal. down over realms of ice and over domin> I Ions of enow and through hurricanes of sleet Christ's disciples are coming from the Korth. The inhabitants of Hudson Bay are gathering to the cross. The Ohuroh Missionary Society in those polar climes has been grandly saocessful in establishing Iwenty-four gospel stations, and over 12,000 natives have believed aud been baptized. The Moravians have kindled the light of the gospel all up and down Labrador. The Danish mission has gathered disoiples from among the shivering Inhabitants of Greenland. William Dancan preaches the gospel Hp hi the ohlll latitudes of Columbia, delivsrlng one sermon nine times In the same Uay to as many different tribes who listen, and then go forth to build school houses and .' churches. Alaska, called at Its annexation William H. Seward's folly, turns out to be William EL Seward's triumph, and It Is hearing the jroioe of God through the American missionaries, men and women as defiant of orctio hardships as the old Scottish ohief who. when camping out in a winter's night knocked from under his son's head a pillow I |Vl nuu TV f oaj lug ium ouua lauui^oavo AM L. luxury would weaken and disgrace the clan.

Strait and Melville Sound. The heroism of polar expedition, which has made the names >f Sebastian Cabot and Sooresby and ichwatka and Henry Hudson immortal, is lobe eolipeed by the prowess of the men and romen who amid the frosts of highest latitudes are this moment taking the upper ihores of Europe, Asia and America for God. Scientists haYe never been able to agree ns to what is the aurora borealis, or northern lights. I can tell them. It is the banner of Victory for Christ spread oat in the nothern alght heavens. Partially fulfilled already the prophecy of my text, to be completely fulfilled In thenear future, "They shall come Irom the North." f But my text takes in the opposite point of the compass. The far South has, through Ehlch tamnoraturft. temotatlon? to lethanrv ind indolence and hot blood which ten.i toward multiform evil. We have through gay text got the North in, notwithstanding Its frosts, and the same text brings in tha (oath, notwithstanding its torrldity. The leldsof cactus, the orange groves and the :hickets of magnolia are to be surrendered to the Lord Almighty. The South! That means Mexioo and all the regions that Willlam EL Prescott and Lord RinRSborough f made familiar in literature; Mexico, in Strange dialect of the Aztecs; Mexico conquered by Hernan Cortes, to be more gloriously conquered; Mexico, with its capital more than 7000 teet above the sea level look^ Injr down upon the enhancement of lake and valley and plain ; Mexico, the home of naHons yet to be born?all for Christ. The V Bouth! That means Africa, which David (Livingstone consecrated to God when he died on his kneee in his tent of exploration. Already about 750,000 converts to Christianity In Africa. The South ! That means all the Islands strewn by omnipotent hand through tropical seas?Malayan, Polynesia, Melanesia, Micronesia and other Islands more numerous man you can imagine unless you have voyaged orouud the world. The South ! That means Java for Go J, Sumatra for God, Borneo tor Qod, Slam for God. A ship was wrecked near one of these islands, and two lifeooats put out for shore, but thosewbo arrived in the flrst boat were jolubbed to death by the cannibals, and the other boat put back and was somehowsaved. fears passed on, and one of that Tery crew fwas wreckcd again with others on the same ^ocks. Crawling up on the shore, they proposed to hide from the cannibals in one of the caverns, but mounting the rocks they paw a church and cried out: "We are uved! A church, a church!" The South ! That means Venezuela. New Granada, Ecuador and Bolivia. The South ! That means l he torrid zone, with all its bloom, land all its fruitage, and all Us exuberance, the redolence of illimitable gardens, the J pqubIo of boundless groves, the binds, the eea, that night by night look up to the ^ j Southern Gross, whiob, in stars, transflg L. tares the midnight heaven as you look up at It all the way from the Sandwich Islands tc |j Australia. "They shall come from the Boutb." 1 But I must not forget that my text takes In another cardinal point of the compass. It takes in the East. I have to report that in a journey around the world th?re Is nothing so much impresses one as the fact that the missionaries divinely blessed are taking the world for God. The horrible war between Japan and Cbin i will leave the last [wall of opposition flat in the dust. War is hnrhfirism always and everywhere. We hold bp ou -han is in nmazemeut at the massacre at Port Arthur, as though Christian Nations could never go into such diabolism. W? Jorget Fort Pillow! We forget the faot thai tiuring our war both North and South rejjoiced when there were 10,000 mort wounded and slain on the opposite side, !War, whether in China or tne United State3, is hell let loos \ But one goo l resuli will como from the Japanese-Cnineso conflict. These regions will be more open tc Civilization and Christianity than ever be. iore. When Missionary Carey put before ai: assembly ot ministers at Norma motion hi? project for the CTaracrollzation of India, th?y 3au?hed him out of the house.

The last mosque of Mohammedanism will be turned Into a Christian church. The last Buddhist temple will become a fortress of light.

Of course there are h::f?h obstacles to be overcome, and great ordeals mast be passed through before the consummation, as witness the Armenians under the butchery of the Turks. May tbat throne on the banks of the Bosphorus 300n orumble! The time has already come when the United States Government and Gr?at Britain and Germany ought to intome the indignation of all civilized Nations. While It is not requisite that arms be sent there to I avenge the wholesale massacre of Armen' ians, it is requisite that by cable under the ! seas, and by protest that shall thrill the wires from Washington and London and i Berlin to Constantinople, the Nations an. athematlze the diabolism for whioh the SulI tan of Turkey is responsible. Mohammedanism is a curse whether in Turkey or New York. "Taey shall come from the East." i And they will come at the cail ol the loveliest and grandest and best men and women i of all time. I mean the missionaries. Dissolute Americans and Englishmen who have gone to Calcutta ana uomDay ana uancon to make their fortunes defame the missionaries because the holy lives and the pure households of those missionaries are a constant rebake to the Amorfoan and English libertines stopping there, but the men und women of God there stationed go on gloriously with their work. People just as good and sell denying as was Missionary Moffat, who, when asked to write in an album, wrote these words: My album is in savage breasts, ? Where passion reigns anddarkaess rests Without one ray of Hijht. To write the name of Jesus there, To point to worlds bofh bright and fair. And see the pagan bow in prayer, Is all my soul's delight. In all those regions are men and women with the consecration of Melville B. Cox, who, embarking for the missionary work in Afrioa, said to a fellow student, "If I die in Africa, come and write my epitaph." "What shall I write for your epitaphV" said the student. "Vrrite," said he, "these words: 'Let a thousand fall before Africa be given up." There is another point of the compass that my text Includes. "They shall come from the West." That means America redeemed. Everything between Atlantic and Paciflo Oceans to be brought within the circle of Yir\\ Inoca nnrl mntnro Will ^ Via rlnna wordly reform or evangelism? Will it be law or gospel? I am glad that a wave of reform nas swept across this land, and all the cities are feeling the advantage of the mighty movement. Let the good work go on until tne last municipal evil 1b extirpated. Aboat fifteen years ago the distinguished editor of a New York dally { newspaper said to me 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 preaohagainst sin you can speak from what you have seen with your own eyes?" I said, "I will," and lit company with a commissioner of police and a captain of polloe and two elders of my church I explored the dons and hiding places of all Btyles ot crime In New Tork and preached a series or sermons warning young men and setting forth tbe work that must be done lest the judgments of God wh?lm this olty with more awful submergement than the volcanic deluge that burled Heroulaneum and Pompeii. I received, as nearly as I can remember, several hundred columns of newBpaper abuse for undertaking that explora- > tlon. Editorials of denunciation, doable leaded, and with captions in great primer type, entitled "The Fall of Talmage," or "Talmage Makes the Mistake of His Life," or "Down With Talmage," but I still live and am in full sympathy with all movements for municipal purification. Bat a movement whloh ends with crime exposed and law executed stops half way. Nay, it stops long before it gets half way. X Lit? ia\y ujol o?vou cvujr wuy, nooi j ctv changed anybody. Break tip all the houses of Iniquity in this city, and you only send the ocoupants to other oities. Break down all the policemen in New York, and while It changes their worldly fortunes it does not change their heart or 111a. The greatest want in New York to-day is the transforming power of the gospel of Jesus Christ to change the heart and the life and uplift the | tone of moral sentiment and make men do right not because they are afraid of Ludlow Street Jail or Sing Sing, but because they love Qod and hate unrighteousness. I have never heard, nor have you heard, of anything except the gospel that proposes to regenerate the heart, and by the influenoe of that regenerared heart rectify the life. Execute the law most oertalnly, but preach the gospel by all means iaohurches, in theatres, /*n homes, in prisons, on the land and on the sea. The gospel is the only power that can revolutionize society and save thn world. All else is half and half work and will not last. In New York it has allowed men who got by piflioe bribery their thousands and tens of thousands and perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars to go scot free, while Bome who w?re merely the cat's paw and agents of bribery are struck with the lightnings of the law. It reminds me of a scene lu Philadelphia when I was living there. A poor woman had been arrested and tried and imprisoned for selling molasses candy on Sanday. Other lawbreakers had been allowed to go undisturbed, and the grogshops were open on the Lord's Day, and the law, with its hands behind its baak, walked up and down the streets declining to molest many of the offenders, but we all rose up in our righteous indignation, and calling uoonall powers, visible and invisible, to help us, we declared that though the heavens fell no woman should be allowed to sell molasses candy on Sunday. A few weeks ago, after I had preaohed In one of the churches in this city, a man i staggered up on the pulpit stairs, maudlin drunk, saying, "I am one of the reformers that were elected to high oflloe at the last election." 1 jot 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 abominations of New York about as soon as smallpox would cure typhoid fever or a buzzsaw render Haydn's ' Creation." Politics in all our cities has become so corrupt that the only difference between the Republican and Democratic parties is that each Is worse than the other. Bat what I nothing else In the universe can dotbegos- | pel can and will accomplish. ''They snail come from the West," and for that purpose the evangelistic batteries are planted all along the Pacific coast, as they ara planted , all along the'Atlantic coast. All the pratrles, all the mountains, all the valleys, all i the cities are under more or less gospel inQuenoe, and when we get enough faith and , consecretion for the work this whole Atnerli can continent will cry out for God. "They ?hall come from the We<t." The work is not so difficulty as many suppose. You nay, "There are the foreign populations." Yes, but many of them are Hol, landers, and they were brought up to love and worship Goi, and it will take but little , to persuade the Hollanders to adopt the religion ot their forefathers.

The completion of a portion of Professor Olmstead's work on the plat- ~ ting o! the Washington of the future makes plain some of the lineB on which the expansion of the city will move. There are only two directions in which Washington can expand. The Potomao River and the Anacosta River bound it on the east and south. Its northern boundary waB originally on old wagon road from Georgetown to Bladeneburg, and its western limit was Rock Creek, but it has passed both of these limitations and has gone ,two miles beyond the old Maryland wagon road, which has now, with all its angles and curves, become Florida avenue. Georgetown has been swallowed up. Parts of a new Washington on the heights beyond the old town are being inoluded. Under the present surveys and plans Sixteenth street Northwest will become, for the President's hruse and its surroundings, what North, South, and East Capitol streets are for the Capitol, and what Four and a Half street is for the City Hall?a spacious avenue terminating in a magnificent building. It will, under the new plan, early become one of the prinoipal streets of the new Washington, ex- e tending six miles from the President's s house to Maryland.

Oollector-Generai Car tor Killed? Martial Law Proclaimed?What Preoipltated the Trouble. An uprising of the Royalists, supporters if ex-Queen Llllaokalanl, against the Hawaiian Government occurred In Honolulu on landay nlgnt, January 6. A raid was made in the rendezvous of the plotters, who, after i fight, retreated to Diamond Head, ji extinct crater, baalc of Honoula. Their leaders were Rob>rt Wilcox, the half-breed, who ed the revolution of 1889, and Sam Nowleln, ix-Captaln of tbe Queen's Guards. Two Ights occurred, In both or which the revoluionists were beaten, loslug about ten men. lartlal law was deolared, and 150 consplrtors were arrested. President Dole, of lawall, has 1600 men whom he can pnt In the teld. The chief fatality on the Government Ide was the death or Charles L. Carter, one t the annexation commissioners to Washigton. A resident correspondent writes from Ionolu*j: There were no fresh developaents in the threateaad uprising until Sanlay afternoon, when the marshal's deteoIves brought In news which caused that PBE8IDEHT DOT.*. ifflcer to Immediately sammoa the Cabinet ind leading officers of the military and itizens' i?uird for consultation. In a ew minutes after their arrival Depay Marsnal Brown and a squad if police under Captain Parker left for the teach at Wuilclki, with orders to search the romioca ui noui) l> irimuiituu, ? prumiuoui loyalist, for arms and ammunition. Just irovious to reaching the place the posse was cineri by Charles L. Carter, Alfred Carter .tid J. B. Castle, who lived near by, all members of the citizens' guard. On approaching the house the Deputy larshallleft the squid on the lawn while he mtered the hoasu, and, finding Bertlemann ind a strange white mm there, prooeedea to ead his warrant. When halt way through hots w?re aaard from the rear of the house, rhe officers ' asked qalokly: "What does hat mean?" Bertlemiuxnreplied: "Iluxow lothlng about it: there aro no arms here." Brown rushed out to join his squad just is Charles Carter shouted: "There they ire, under the boatshed," pointing to a shed n the rear of the lot, and rushing forward, ollowed by his cousin, Castle, and the ithers. At that Instant a volley was fired >y a crowd of natives under the shed, and 7harles Carter and Lieutenant Holi fell rounded. The police drove the natives out >n the beach, when the latter retreated to he brush, keeping up a desultory firing. As he police only numbered eight and there vere three or four times as many natives, hey returned to the house, taking with hem three of the rebels whom they had EX .QUEEN LILrUOKALAKI. laptared in the melee, during which some ixty shots were fired. Taking the wounded aen In and first OArlng for them as well as lossible, they searched the prisoners, placng Burtlemann uhder arrest. The first irlsoner was recognized as John Lane. He tad a heavy revolver, belt of cartridges and ifle; the second a p >cket pistol and belt ol artridRpa. The other was unarmed, but a taort rifle was found behind the door which vldently belonged to him. as Holi says he rns the man who shot him. There is no ioubt thnt Carter's three wounds came from jane's pistol, it having three empty chambers. By this time the rebels regained theft ourage and surrounded the house, firing MO it repeatedly. Leaving one man to ;uard the prisoners, the officers returned he fire, but without effect, as their assallnts could not be Been. Realizing that their case was desperate, nd that word mu9t be got to town at all azards, it was resolved that Brown and 'arker should make a dash for their horses, rhlch were tied near the house. This was one with success, and they were soon at lie nearest telephone. Alfred Carter, who ad been mlssin? since the wounding of his ousin, was supposed to be dead, but in nallty had escaped with the same idea and >r the purpose of getting a doctor for his ousin. He had already telephoned to the lHrshal'8 office, besi les finding a doctor, rith whom he returned to the scene ot the Ight alone. On approaching the gate they rere m??t with a volley. Dropping to the round, Carter returned three shots, but, ealizlng the impossibility of getting into he house unhurt, he and the doctor rereated. About this time the natives were idvancing on the house to take it by storm, vhenone 01 the officers told Bertlemann he vould blow his brains out on the instant he first man went inside the house and lurt any one.

The leaders of the rebels were 8am Nowlln. former colonel of the Qaeen's Household Guard, and Robert Wilcox, who waa the leader of the revolution in 1839, the other prominent ones being half whites formerly in the servloe of the Queen.

Warship Sent to HawalL Admiral Beardslee was ordered late In the afternoon of the dny of receipt of the news of the rebellion to proceed from San Francisco with his flagship, the Philadelphia, to Hon olulu with all possible despatch. As the Philadelphia was ready for sert. she went away from Maro Island within twenty-four hoars. Insfxorsivea days, at the outside. It was thought, she ought to be in sight of the Sandwich Islands. President Cleveland made the following statement with respect to the Hawaiian question "No information has been received which indicates that anything will happen in Hawaii making the presence of one of our naval vessels necessary, unless we are prepared to enter upon a policy and course of conduct violative of every rule of international law and utterly unjustifiable. All who take any interest in the question should keep in view the fact that Hawaii is entirely independent of us, and that in its relations to us it is a foreign country. A ship has been sent to Honolulu, not because there has been any change in the policy of the Administration, und not beoauae there seems to be any imminent necessity for its presenoe there. The vessel hns been sent in precise accordance with the policy of the Administration in every cose of the kind, and from motives of extreme caution, and because there is a possibility that disturbances may be renewed which might result in danger to the persous or property ol American citizens entitled to the protection of the United States. This coarse was at once determined upon as soon as information reached the Government of t"ho recent revolt.

' b P 1. "At tha same time came the disciples vi unto Jesus, sarin?, Who is the greatest in h the kingdom of heaven'?" After the trans- ii figuration Jesus oast a demon out of a child, t foretold ag.iln His death and resurrection g and wrought a miracle to pay the tribute ii monav for HimRelf nnd Peter. Then follow a the Incidents of to-day's lessoD. This was C not the only time that the twelve or a por- b tion of them talked of greatness In the king- o dom. / F 2. "And Jesus called a little child unto q Him and sat him in the midst of them." The 1 little child was not afraid to come to a stran- t Rer. Tbere most have been something win- t some about Jesus that drew the children and c the simple minde-i. How could it be other- t wise? Object lesson teaching is the very s oldest kind, for God began to teach this in t the garden of Eden by the tree of life, the ? cherubim, the sword and the coats of skins, t 3. "And said, Verily I say unto you except ye be converted and become as little children t ye shall not enter into the kingdom of ? heaven." The first thing Is not position In s the kingdom, but the qualification to enter i the kingdom,%and therefore the Lord said to j NicodemuB that even he, good, moral, rcllg- e ions man. must be born above, born of water \ and the Spirit, ere he oould see or enter the c kingdom of God (John iii., 3,5). t 4. "Whosoever, therefore, shall humble { himself as this little child, the same is greatest i in the kingdom of heaven." The child came <i when called and yielded itself to Jesus for His pleasure without saying. I won't! or, Whaf fnrV nr Whnt rolll vnii r?iun mftV Tf t had no it quests nor preferments, but was content to be in Jesus's bands and dealt with as He might please. Happy child! Let us be like Him?just so iet thy Father do what He will, just to know that He Is true and be still. 5. "And wlioso shall receive one sucti Mttle child In My name recelveth Me." As soon as we come to Jesus and iq simplicity receive Him we become children of God (John i., 12) and members of the body of Christ (Epb. v., 30). It Is asif]He said to the Father cono?rning each one, "Receive him as Myself, and if he oweth aught put that to My account" (Phil. 17,18). 6. "But whoso shall offend one of these little oufls which believe in Me it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth pf the sea." As truly as Jesus appreciates and will reward every good thing done to His redeemed, so surely will He punish every evil thing done to them (Math, xcv., 46) or every good left undone. 7. "Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometb." There are stumbling blocks, mnny, both in the church and out of it, ana there are many temptations to be offended, but Jesus said elsewhere that though we should be put out of the synagogue or even slain for His sake we must not be offended (John xvi., 1. 2). It is a privilege to suffer wi'h Him and for His sake. 8. "Wherefore if thy band or thy foot of- I fend thee, cut them off and oast them from ' thee. It is better for thee to enter Into life , halt or maimed rather than' having two hands or two feet to be oast into everlasting fire." There is fire, and it Is as everlasting as life. It was prepared for the devil and his angels (Math, xxv., 41), but whosoever does not have his name in the book of life shall be cast therein (Rev. rr., 15; xxL, 8). , 9. "And if thine eye offend thee pluck it ' out and cast It from thee. It is better for i lueo IU oilier JIUU lllU wuuuuoo)o miuw than, having two eyes, to bo cast Into hell fire. The Lord Jesus who made these bodies and knows better than anyone else the importance of each member says plainly that; If the losing of a hand or a foot or an eye could be the means of causing us to escape hell Are, It would be better far to lose that member than to keep It and let it lead as into hell Are, where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched (Mark ix., 42-18). 10. "Take heed that ye despise not" one cf these little ones, for I say unto you that in heaven their angels do always beholdthe face of My Father, wbioh is in heaven/' However poor and unlearned may be the messenger who shall warn you to flee from the wrath to come, despise him not. His guardian angels are in constant communication with heaven (Heb. i., 15), and if we despise the messenger we despise the Lord Je3U3, whom he represents (Luke x.. 16). 11. "For the Son of Man is come to save that which was lost." The Lord Jesus would not have come from heaven and suffered for cur sins if we could have been saved ^rlthoul Jim, but knowing the realities ot hell ani the awful tormont awaiting the lost He endured all things which He suffered ttc lost, Jhe sailor boy had more of His Spkjt than miny haT8 to-day when he would not be shut up, but kept at the people till they were compslled by God's spirit to listen. 12. 'How think ye? If a man have a hundrod sheep, and one of them be pone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine and goeth into ,the mountains and seekeththat which is gone astray?"

"And, if 80 be that be find it. verily I , say unto you he rejoiceth more of that sheep ] than of the ninety and nine which went not astray." How can we who have been led to receive Jesus realize more fully what we 1 have been saved from and the cost of our I salvation, that so we may be more truly ' grateful to Him who has saved us and devote ourselves more fully to Him that through U3 He may save others? Let us 1 earnestly ask Him to be more filled with His ( spirit to this end, and as we read of the tor- 1 ments of the' finally impenitent believe that 1 God means what He says; then surely wa shall greatly rejoice over one soul saved. 14. "Even so it is not the will of your ? Father which is in heaven that one of these ? little ones should perish." It is plainly J written that "God Is not willing that any | should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (II Pet. Hi., 9). In Ezek. t xxxiii.. 11, it is written : "As I live/salth the Lord God. I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked." John ill., 16, shows the j provision He has made for all, and John vi., t 37, says that none will be cast out who { come, while John x., 28, says that having received eternal life it is impossible that any , power can pluck them out of His hand.

The sub;ctofit must be expected to show that he as 10una a more veuuea treasure iu oeavou ^ y bis new alma in getting, and his new rlnoiples In using the treasures of this rorld. If, In that chief part of life oooupied rith gaining and using property, the pro3ssed subject of a change consisting in plaoog the affections on things above, continue o show the same estimate of property as the Teat end to be sought, the same eagerness a getting, tbe tame tenacity in holding, the ame self-seeking or exclusively selfish gratiIcation in using it, need tt be surprising that lis worldly competitors doubt the reality fachange? Must not Christ repel suon irofeeaore with his own searching luestion?'-What do ye more than others?" .'here is % nothing less than absurdity In he idea 'of a change, in which a matt tecomes a new creature In Christ, in which ild things are passed away, all things am tecome new, which yet does not carry a new pirit through the business, and . consecrate no property as well as the heart to God?in Fhich the theory is all for the glory of God; he practice all for maklntr money. J Religion is love. Now "love Is an actlva >rinciple. It is aa natural for lore- to a?t ?enefloently as for a fountain, to < flow or m 1 tar to shine; and Its action la ungrudging, instill tad, delighting in toil for the loved obect. Witness, for instance, the tolls of pir- . mtal love. Can love to God and man be, the ory essence of the oharacter, white benalW :eut efforts are left to hazard, crowded into he by-corners of life, supplied by the cblp>lngs and remnants? Can love control the ieart when at the same time it obviously loes not control the actiona of the life? Christians are laborers together with God -God is always giving, always employed in \ he work of beneficence: if we labor with Jim, then we must labor in the work of love -of beneficence. God designs to form us :,' n to bis likeness; and to this end, we are bo ooner brought into His kingdom, thanwa iro put to doing His work. Can any one then. >e a laborer together with God,, and make bat secondary which He regards as primary; rarsue without plan, energy or steadfastness, he object which he seeks with a steadfastiesH which knows no abatement, a (zeal that ipates no sacrifice, and an outpouring of reasure which arithmetic oould not calculate?
