In Addrem Delivered at the Mildmay Conference by Sir Robert Anderson, K. C. B.t IX.D.?The Spiritual Ilelplesahess and Hopelessness of Man. London, England.?The following adIress, entitled, "Man's Condition, {jod'a iemedy," was delivered at the Mildmay Conference by Sir Robert Anderson, K. (J. LL. D. The special subject assigned to me is 'The Spiritual Helplessness of Man bv Mature, and the New Birth From Above.' am not here to defend the dogmas that heology has based upon this truth. What oncerns us is the truth itself. I say this rith emphasis, because of what is pass- t ng around us. And this should be our position in re ard to all the great doctrines of faith, i The age of creeds is passed. In days of hivalry, when men had respect for truth nd honor, creeds shut out those who ould not honestly accept them. But now hey avail nothing to protect the gold gainst "thieves and robbers." Men will ublicly, and in the most solemn way, ( ledge their belief in every Christian ruth in order to gain office in our hurchcs; and as soon as they secure the ] restige and pay which office affords, they 1 se the pulpits to attack the very truths j hey are pledged and subsidized to defend, 'his being so, let us abandon the out- < rorks of our creeds, and, falling back pon the Bible, stand four-square in its i efense. In this spirit I approach my subject. I m not ignorant of what theology teaches, i bout human depravity, nor of the controersies respecting it which preceded the ettlement of our creeds, cut on this latform I will recognize no authority save n open Bible. My reason for saying this ' i because here, as on many other ques- 1 ions, the opponents of the truth owe their 1 antage ground to what is called Chris- ' ian doctrine on the subject. For the 1 octrine is inconsistent with facts, where- \ s between truth and fact conflict is in/ 1 * t_i _ ! ossime. ( A natural man, i. c., a man who has ot experienced the new birth, and who as not the Spirit of God, may live a fe of the highest morality and rectitude, cripture testifies that in these qualities he Apostle Paul made no advance after is conversion. It is no answer to this 3 say that in his unconverted days he ime under the external influences of dime truth. The fact remains that they ere unconverted days, and that with uch an environment he was able to mainlin such a life of purity and piety and sal, albeit he was spiritually dead in sins. Ce took to religion as another man might ike to pleasure, or to study, or to trade, r to drink. But in this, as he himself eclares, he was only following his natural ent?"the desires of the flesh and of the lind." Neither is it an objection that such a ise is exceptional. What man has done ten -may do. If the Fall made it imposible for men to live pure and upright ves, in would be unjust in God to judge hem for their vices. There are two great standards or prinEles of divine judgment. With those o hear the Gospel, the consequences of ccepting or rejecting Christ are final and reversible. As for the rest, men will be idged by the law of their being, whether s stamped on heart or conscience, or as emulated in express commands at Sinai. THE NATURAL MAN. The first three chapters of Romans claim otice here. The first chapter describes he condition in which the mass of the eathen world was sunk even in days i 'hen the tide of human progress and cul- . are was at the flood, and when, jnorever, the great religious cults of classic j aganism held up a standard of life as j ign as any that apostate Christendom f resents?cults of which one at least naa ( ich spiritual vitality that three centuries ^ fterwards it bid fair to supplant Chris* j lanity as the religion (I am not speak- . lg of the true Christianity of the true \ hurch of God) maintained its ascend- j ncy, it was first by penal laws of ex- , .-erne severity, and second by adopting , be chief characteristic rites and errors j f the Paganism which it thus persecuted, j These things need stating if we are to ( nderstand aright the closing words of j ae first chapter of Romans. The vile ractices of tne heathen world were not j ue to ignorance. They knew that their , eeds were evil. They knew the judglent of God, that they who practiced sucn hings were worthy of death, and yet they racticed them. But the case of Saul of Tarsus was t holly different. If what men call con- j :ience were the arbiter of human con- | act; if that were right which a man ' onestly believed to be right, his was a ] erfect life. As judged by any and every i uman standard, Saul of Tarsus was a | attern saint; but as judged by God he as a pattern sinner. And if you read | he middle verses of Romans 3 intelligent- ' r, this is the lesson you will learn from j liem: It is God's estimate of the life j f the natural man at his best?the life of | he upright, pious, zealous Jew under law. ' For that which is highly esteemed among | len is abomination in the sight of God." i The story is told of the first Duke of : Cambridge, thai; when, in the reading of i he Decalogue, the Seventh Commandment ao reached, instead of the orthodox re- < oonse, he answered, in an aside, that was ( lainly audible, "I never did that." But j ere was a man who could make a like ? ;sponse to every commandment in the j lecaJogue. As toucnmg tne rignteous- t ess tliat is in ihe law, blameless." Such t as his pround boast. # < You will say, perhaps, that this only ] roves that he was utterly blind and dead. !ut that i* precisely what I am insisting n; that so lar is it from the truth that uman nature is hopelessly corrupt and ( epraved, as men judge of corruption and i epravity, that a natural man may live a ( fc that would put to shame half the , lints in the calendar. By a course of un- s hristian asceticism and severe penances ] >r "punishing the body,"' these calendar , lints attained to what men deem saint- ( liip. But to this man saintshin was as j atural as sin was to many or the saints ? f the calendar. ( One of the tests which people hold to be ( nal is that man shall "do his best." ( rhat more can possibly be expected of j im? This man "did his best," and his ( est was a '"record" that has never been j eaten. What purity of life was his! , Vhat piety! What burning zeal! What ( slf-sacrificing devotion to what he be- j eved to be the cause of God! But looking ack upon it all, he writes, "Who was be- * are a blasphemer." And what a bias- ; hemer! And so, when he comes under the Divine sarchlight, he deelaves himself the chief f sinners. Scanning the long line of all be sinners of the race, he takes his place ( t their head, "of whom I am the first." j f these were not the words of an in- ] pired Apostle in an inspired epistle, , light suspect exaggeration. Ana yet they j nly express the well recognized principle . hat privilege increases responsibility and { esponsibility deepens guilt. Of course lie ; new no better. But that only made his , ase the worse, for if ever there was a j lan who ought to have known better it ( as he. And so he takes his place as , chier oi sinners. And he humbly adds, . I obtained mercy." And he repeats this. For lie was twice lercied. It is not God's way to put lasphemers into the ministry. And so, as ie thinks of the Lord's "exceeding abun- j ant grace" in calling him to the apostle- 1 hip, lie says, "I obtained mercy, because did it ignorantly in belief." But for a ost, dead sinner a plea like this avails bsolutely nothing. For such, the one i nd only plea is "that Christ Jesus came < ato the world to save sinners." i THE WORK OF REDEMPTION. The Epistle to the Romans goes on to ; infold the doctrine of salvation. Sin ar- 1 aigns the sinner before the Divine judg- 1 neat seat, and he stands there as guilty ' jid doomed. Salvation therefore can only >e through redemption, and redemption nust be by blood. But as we have seen, in has another aspect: it corrupts and lepraves the whole spiritual being. The inner therefore needs a new nature. He nust be born again, born from above. But these truths must never be separat- i ;d. The Spirit's work depends upon the , yoi'k of Christ, Hence the emphasis with ; which we are told that Christ came 1 Avater and blood; not by water alone, bii by water and blood?as the R. V. rendei it, "by the water and the blood." We all know what the blood means. W are "redeemed by the precious blood f Christ as of a iamb without blemish an without spot." But some of us are muc at sea about the water. The water an the blood are figurative expressions. Bii the figures are typical. Ana if we undei stand the types, both will turn or thoughts to the sacrifice of Calvary. Th water was "the water of purification" < Numbers 19. Water that owed its cen monial efficacy to the sin offering. Bi the sin ofFering was only for a redeeme people; a people already redeemed by th blood of the Paschal Lamb. When tb Lord returns in blessing to Israel, thei as Ezekiel 38 teaches us, He will come "b the water." But this is because His firs coming was not by the water only, bi by the water and the blood. The bloo has already been shed, redemption is ai eomplished. The two, I repeat, must never be sepi rated. And as redemption is altogethe God's work, so also is the new birth. Lit the Apostle's ministry (Gal. 1: 1, R. V.' it is "not from men, neither throug man." No ordinance or "sacrament" he anything to do with it. Men can fix tim and place for ordinances, for ordinance ? ? . -v _ Ai - _ r teiate to earui; due me new uirm ja iroi above. The Spirit breathes where H wills. It is to this thirty-sixth chapter of Ez< kiel that these words of Christ refei Three elements in the new birth are spec Bed in the prophecy: (1) "I will sprinkle clean water upo pou, and ye shall be clean." (v. 25.) (2) "I will give you a new heart, (v. 28.) (3) "And I will put My Spirit withi rou." (v. 27.) 'THE WATER OF REGENERATION. In Matt. 19:28, the time of its fulfil ment for the man is designated by th Lord as "The Regeneration." And in th inly other passage in the New Testamen where that word occurs, it is used in coi nection with "the water of purification ind the Ezekiel prophecy. I allude c course to Titus 3:5: "He saved ua b the washing of regeneration and renev ing of the Holy Gnost." The word her used is loutron. It is mis-rendere " *--* ? C -? warning, lur 11 js u nuuu ouuoiaub** ind not a verb; and the R. V. glos9 (mai fin) is misleading, for loutron is neve used in the Greek Bible for "the laver. But in the Greek Version of Ecclus. 34:2 it is used for the vessel which held "th irater of purification." But to return to the Divinely appointe rite of the Jewish religion, What was th symbolism of the water? Scripture itsei supplies the answer. The word loutror like the word "regeneration," occurs onl twice in the New Testament. I have a ready spoken of Titus 3:5; the other pai :age is Eph. 5:26. Christ gave Himsel for the Church, "that He might sanctif ind cleanse it with the loutron of wate by the Word." In the type the Israelit reached the sacrifice by means of the wt ter; in the antitype the believer reache the sacrifice by means of the Word. Henc the language of Scripture, "the loutron c water in the Word." The water of pur [ication was, as we have seen, the water c regeneration; and it is by the Word tha the sinner is born again to God. It ha nothing to do with m3*stic arts or shit boleths after the pattern of ancient P? janism. "We are born again" (as the ir spired Apostle teaches) "by the Word c 3od"?"the living and eternally abidin Word of God." And to guard against all possibility c ;rror or misapprehension, it is addec 'And this is the Word which by the Goi pel is preached unto you"?preached, a lie had already declared, "with the Hoi 3host sent down from Heaven." No the Spirit without the Word, nor th Word without the Spirit, but the Wor preached in the power of the Spirit. In all this Ihe truth of Christianity i the counterpart and complement of tii teaching of the Old Testament. How ca sinners, helpless, hopeless, dead ? as dea is dry bones scattered on the earth?b born again to God? "Can these bone live?" was the question which led th prophet to cast himself on God. And th J7th chapter of Ezekiel gives the answer Preach to them. Call upon them to hea the Word of the Lord. (v. 4). This i nan's part; or if anything more remain t is Prophecy unto the breath"?pra ;hat the Spirit may breathe upon tnes lead. The rest is God's work altogethei For "the Spirit breathes when He wills. Men preach: the Spirit breathes; an :he dry bones live. Thus it is that sinner ire born again.?London Christian. Look Ahead. There 5a glory for the time to come.

In the early days of Christian life a mai >f God grfve us counsel to this effect: Th .vord of (i'od and prayer arc the two fun lamental means of grace. Through th vord God speaks to us; in prayer w ;peak to God. These means of grace mus je \ised in due proportion.
