CHAPMAN'S SERMON A SUNDAY DISCOURSE BY THE NOTED PASTOR.EVANCELIST. A Man Wlthoit a Country?* Tost Which U the ftaddost Eipr???loii PoMlbl* In Human Language? Pity For Thoao Without a God. New York Citt.?The Rev. Dr. J. Wil bur Chapman, the noted pastor-evangel ist, continue* to excite popular interest by the series of remarkable sermons be ii delivering in the Fourth Presbjrterian Church. Apropos of patriotic cclebrationi he has prepared the following diieonrM for the preM. entitled "A Man Without a Country." It is preached from the text, Enhetians 2: 12. "Havina no hope and without God in the world." This is one of the saddest texts in the New Testament, for while it describes our own condition when we were alien* from Chriiit and stranger* to the covenant and promi?e of God. yet I take it in my presentation of thin subject to describe those who have wilfully rejected Cbri*t and who have deliberately decided that thev will not accept Him as a Saviour. With thin interpretation put upon the Scripture we ha*-e in the text the wddest expre**ion po**ible in human language. I suppose there ia no one of my hearer* to whom the word* may be *trictly applied, for if we take bone out of a man'* life it i? not worth the living. Tbe young man mav have failed yesterday. but he ha* hoped that he mav *ticceed to-morrow; the bu*inew man who ha* !o*t his fortune in the wreck of pa?t day* is not di*couragcd because hope buoys him up. nnd he is confident that prosperity will be hi* oncc again. Take hope from our live* and we are of all men mo*t mi?erable. nnd if in addition to being deprived of hope we have no God we nre not enly hopele** for hnnelen* alto for eternitv. for since we were made to he filled with Ood and all our being wc* no adjusted a* tn be at tune to His nature, there is no sadder pieture thin to be without Him. Some rears aeo I eame acro?s that intere?*ing and pathetic story written bv Edward Everett HaV entitled "The Man Without a Countrv." and it has furnished for me an illustration of this text to which rour attention is invited. I found in the man who drifted everywhere acros? the sea without being able to enter a harbor a presentation of manv a man who has buried Christ out of hi* life. The man wm Philip Xoland by name. Whether the story be truth or fiction it does not mat tcr. for the illustration is the same. Thii young lieutenant in the armv had come under the influence of Aaron Burr, and he had fascinated him. The young soldier wrote to Burr long letters expressing hi? hopes and his desires that he might serve him. but had no letters from Burr in reply. At laat he came one dav to see the young man. and then his hold upon him complete. The regular life of the soldier became tame; be was utterly unfitted for service. There came a time when in company with others who were also under the influence of Burr he must appear before the array court to be tried for misdemeanor. The others for one rea soi. or another escaped sentence, bul Philip Noland was pronounced guilty u- ?? -Kr tk< in/im if Viarl ?nv iir* wnn aoiiru ?? twv j.. .. ... thing to say why sentence shou'd not b? passed nnon him because he had Wr false to hio country and had sinned again*) the United State*. His reply was an oath, and in the presence of the court h? cursed his country and said that h< wished he might never again hear tb< soind of the name United States; that h< hat. ? is native land. The judge, with a whi ?e. answered. "'It shall be as yoi say. . subject to the approval of the Pre*i?i * of the United States, you shal never r ,n hear of your country." A1 this Phiiip Xoland laughed, but no on? else did; there was a deathlike stillnesi over the court. He was taken to New Or leans, given over into the charge of s commander of one of the vessels, with the distinct understanding that no one wat ever again to speak to him of the United States, and he was to be allowed to speal to no one of his old home. He was at last put unon a Government vessel an*1 given quarters befitting his late rank. Il was expressly stipulated that he wa* t( be exposed to no indignity: he was not tf be reminded of the fact that he was i prisoner, and while he could wenr the uni forn vet lie mu?t not have the buttons a' the United State* Oo-ernment upon thi< uniform. Indeed he wa* to be a mar without a country from this time on. H? was permitted once each dav to dine witf the officers, but they did not care to hav? him. because when he was present thei alV n( Knmp' nndi?r no circum stance* was he to ever ?w hi* countn iwin and never was he to hear of it. H? wan not perm?tted to go on shore wher ever the landing might be. If he reac books at all they mu?t contain no refer ence to his home, and if he read the for eipn papers it wa* only after some on< had carefully nit out every reference t< the United States. If the vessel upor which he was a pa?pcngcr came ncai bis country it must wait until it would b< overtaken by another vessel going sea ward. Philip Xoland became a passeng?*t wit!i his face set away from his home. Il has evrt1 been to me one of the saddest illustrations I k.iow. and vef a perfect pic ture of the man who has deliberately rc jected Christ, has said. "I will not hav< this man to rule over me." and who is therefore, describfd by the word* of th< text an "having no hope and without Got in the wor'.d." v I. We have reiected Him. He has said it Eis word. "He that i* not with Me ii against Me." and not *o accept m to re ject. It is true we hr.ve never said in *# mar.y words that we would not have Hin as our Saviour, but we have resisted thi e-treatie* of the minister and snumer t'?e prayer* of our loved ones, and whai we have not been bold enough to say wit! the lina we have said in our heart*. anr God know;?h the language of the heari as men know the language of the lips. ] an very sure that Philip Noland did nol mean what he said. He had spoken in i passion, and I am perfectly positive tha< no one here could for a moment rejeel Christ if he felt that Christ would tak? hin at his word, and possiblv he mighl never have a chance again. Mr. Moodj used to say that no one wanted to be ex cu*ed. "Would vou sign a letter Itki thi*y ke said. ''Sitting in the house o1 Go I thin Sunday evening I received i pressing invitation from one of your serv inU to be present at the Marriage Sup per of the Lamb. I pray thee, have m< excused." No one would sign it. Then would you sign thin? "Sitting in thi house of God this Sunday evening I re ccived a pressing invitation from one o your servants to be present at the Mar riage Supper of the Lamb. By the grac? of Ood I will be there." If you could bul sign that there would be joy in heaver and joy in your own heart. II. We are bv nature afar off. Our heart) are deceitful above all thing* and desper atelv wickcd. Our minds are carnal an< therefor** at enmity with Ood: our willi arc Mtuhborn and will not yield to thi touch of Hi* power: we are in midnight darkness. and it in in tbix condition tha He comes to us. In the 13th verse of thi scrond chapter of Epheeians we read "But now in Christ Jesus. ye who tonit time* were afar off are made nigh by th< blood of Christ." and to all the unsave< it is mv privilege to say that by the erac< of God you are brough nigh to Christ This is true because you have been undei the influence of the Spirit, and you maj be naved if you will, but if you rcjec Christ no word can describe this sin o which you are guilty. In the Old Testa ment the man who despised Moses' Go* died without mercy among two or threi enemies, of how much greater need o mercy shall he be that hath trodden un der foot the Son of God. hath counted th< blood whereof He was glorified a rommoi thing, and ha* inialted the Spirit of grace In this picture of Philip Noland. a sailoi on the tea without a harbor. I find ai illustration of the man who in npite o God'* grace has rejected the offer or merer III. We begin to break away, r.ot by great fin*, but by amall ?in?. Have you evei noticed in the three venei in the tini chapter of Romana that wonderful de acription of a:n, indeed the mmt remark able of any the world baa ever aeen. Ii the 24th vene we read, "God gave then U? 19 unvJcanncsa; in uic iota yctk .... .... "God gave them up to rile affection*." while in the 28th verte we read. "God pave them up to a reprobate mind." The uncleanne** may have been ain of an inaig 1 nincant character; to be given up to vile affection* ia to be permitted to act our heart* upon those thing* which are not rizht. and draw them to u? n* with hooka k of ?teel. but to be given over to a reproi bate mind i* to be hopeless. 1 make an appeal to-'dav in behalf of thoae whose live* arc in the leant touched by ain; it ia a dangerous position. IV. Whtt ia the greatest ?in in .ill the cat.v J logue an written in God's word? If thia , question were put to men there would be i almost as many answer* n* there are men. , It is not impurity, nor dishonestr. These | things are not even to be considered in the light of the greatest sin of all, which I is unbelief. When we read in the gospels that the IIolv Ghost is to come, it is said , that He will reprove the world of sin, ! and that sin is described as not believing nn Him. To reject Christ, therefore, is the chiefest of all transgressions. V. ' Having no hope. I carnot imagine that ' any of my. hearers would for a moment think of givinr way to unbelief or taking ' refuge in infidelity. That is. indeed, ' hopeless. It ia said that Adoniram .Tudson when he was a student in Brown Uni! versity came under the influence of a fel' low student who was an infidel. On his 1 return to Providence at one time he was obliged to stop at a country inn. The innkeeper told nim he had but one room, ---> *k?? /-? n mitn who tr.ns ?un ttUU lUllV n?J? UVA? ?v -. ...... ? , posed to dying. _ Judson cared nothing for this, and said he would take the room. All through the night he heard thin man crying out to God for mercy, hriekimt in terror because of hit unbelief. and at last Judson utterly worn out fell asleep. When the morning camf all was ({iiiet in the adjoining room, hut the man wes dead. What was the student's horror ' to find nut that the dying man wax his companion in infidelity, and when he camc to the end there was no hope for him, and infidelity prevailed him nothing. It ' is an awful thing to be without Christ in the world. VI. 1 Without God. If you conld imagine 1 God taken out of your life for a nonent it would be a position of terror No one 1 would ever again say no to Him if they realized that they might say no for fhe 1 last time. To have no help in temptation and no comfort in the hour of sorrow. 1 and no support in the day of death would indeed be an awful thing. A friend of ' mine told me of a man in the West who 1 had been constantly besought by his friends to come to Christ, and had resisted all their entreaties. He had been en* j treated by God Himself as He called him i 1 in prosperity and in adversity, and at 1 last the calls became so marked that it j was as if God had actually spoken to him. ' and at last in a heat of passion he cried 1 out as if he were speaking to God. "Ob. ' God, let me alone," and He did. and until j the dav of his death it is said he never [ again had even a faint dciire to go to ; Christ. It is dangerous to resist. God pity the man who says no t<i Christ ard 1 speaks for the last time, and then comet j ' to the place where he had no hope and is : without God in the world.

The pastor remonstrated with him for living so much. "0 massa!" said j he, "Goo's work must be done, and I will ' have a part in it." I Commenting on this incident, Ida Q. Moult on says: "You and I want a part in : it.

Ana, when you come to > Him and find how He loves you and takes ! i the burden from your soul, you will love f Him. That is what vou want. Our sins I arc greatly aggravated by the stony hardt r.csa of your liearts toward God. Jesus t tikes it all away.

Dr. 0. P. Gifford, the well* r known pastor of ltuffalo. He took the . common bread and said, "This is My > body." He took the common wine and r said, ''This ts My blood." The artist i take* no his canvas and colors, and as you Iook at ihe canvas you think of nothing but the different colors of paint. ; When the artist combines them, you , think neither of canvas or colors, but oi the picture. Christ made the common est things of hie sacrcd; He made rirudgf ery divine; He makes every burden and trial a stepping stone to life itself, and ? life a long, sweet psalm. This He does t when you surrender everything to Him. "Christ Can*) to San the Lost." It is said of the brother of Whiteficld, 1 the great evangelist, that he was deeply | despondent at tunes and felt his utter worthies*lies* and helplessness. On such " an occasion Lady Huntingdon availed her self of the opportunity to speak with him about his tout'* salvation and tried to induce him to come to Christ. ? To all her pleas he answered, "Oh. it is ' of no use! 1 am lost! 1 am lost!" "Thank t?i,d for that!" said she. "Why?" asked the man in astonishment. "Be cause," Mild Lady Huntingdon. "Christ came to nvt? the lout, and if you are Io?t ' He ? just the One that can iive you."
