I THE PULPIT. ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY WE REV. JOHN DOUCLAS ADAM. 9B Subject: HI oral Lauaenegfl. Brooklyn, N. y.?The Rev. John |glas Adam, the pastor of the Re oed Church on tbe Heights, ached Sunday on "Moral Laiue ?,L/ from the text: Acts lli:6: "Then *> said. Silver and gold have I gg^but such as I have give I unto |Hkw the name of Jesus Christ of ^Hhreth rise up and walk.' He said: for text introduces us to a lame 11 who lay day by day at the gate the temple in Jerusalem, begging! sufficient money to keep him in By. This is a very common scene the New Testament, where we are stantly meeting the lame, the halt, and the lepers, and there is gSBBider, for we must bear in mind ^P^vere the days when there were . ffl hospitals, 110 scientiMc medical oojs, no homes for incurables, nor Societies of aid. Since that day Tstinnitv. without boastfulness, has fnagnificent share in the creaLbose*centres of relief. We see spectacle on our streets as did in of old npon his. Our Cbrisiment and Christian love have the hospital, and our lame sent there. And not only the but we have to-day enlight'ntific effort, societies of charhelpfulness on all hands; and the modern method of dealing cness is not the same as that jostles, never think that it is Rtian, for the same Christian lys about the treatment of ills to-day. "We have to be , it seems to me, from the t God is only in the extraorThat He is only in the large, to be hard upon our reason ehend. God is as much 4n ary as in the miracle. It is i God, and God is as much )spital, in His spirit, an^J in ?rn. methods of curing sickd is there just as truly as He ie days of old.

There are 10 not only do not contribute rength, but there are those away the moral bread baked :bor of good men in the fiery of trial, and throw it away sr at every pure and divine They are the infamous deaf that which is the pillar of iar problem to-day is the lame man. 8 a patriotic, economic and relig one, than which there is none e practical. The problem before church is to set the lame man on feet so that he can make his own in things of the heart and become mtributor 10 the moral health of world. Let us observe how Peter John faced the problem. First, [ faced it squarely. They did not re it. They were not too anxions It getting to the temple. While kip has its supreme place in the pus life of every man, there is Kbiug else. They did not criticise Ror fellow; they helped him. And fcestion is how they helped him? klid not give him money. They ^ne, and they did not feel the 1 >o( the limitation either; they Kaey could solve the problem it It. The silver and gold in the J sphere are not good and con surroundings, congenial work good advice and ideals. The Chrisphurch does not stand merely for sophic help and the gospel of surroundings. Peter and John six ihs before would not have been Uy equipped to face this problem; did not then possess God nor did possess them. They were com flHkms of Christ, out tney uia nut ^kees His spirit. But now tbev were ^Hly possessed by the Spirit of God, ^Vthat was tbe first step toward the ^Btion of the problem before them. ^H/jt is the first step to-day. You can never help the lame man ^BLy/e not only possess God but are ^^ed by Him. ^^Hker element in the solution of ^^Brolem was that the two were in ^Hect accord. Six morths before ^K;r had forsaken Chri6t, while John ^fte ran the gantlet in the terrific ^Bt of passion In the city of hate, but Peter never again shirked his fluty. John had been ambitious for the supreme place among the apostles, but now he had grown in grace ami lost the passion for promin^ftce. Friends, the same conditions are necessary to-day in solving the pro'tlem of the morally lame on the part of the Church of God as were manifested on that day. The love of prominence must go, whether it be of individual or church, or denomination. Passlcfc must cease. One of the reasons wfcy the church of God is not omnipotent is because there is still this lust for prominence on the part of individuals, churches and denominations, and instead of self abandon we are absolutely too selfconscious. every one of us. Again they solved it in giving the power of Christ to the man: "In the name of Jesus Christ rise up and walk." The communication of ideals will never save men from moral lameness. Ideals must live in personality. That is the difference between Christianity and everything else. It is the communication of power, the tonch of God?the touch of divine power in the heart. Let us feel it this morning. "In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, rise up and walk." Let it .touch upon your weakness. It is -'here. Let it do for you and me what it did for that lame man. It breaks the power of cancelled sin, And sets the prisoner free. That is what Peter and John did. Think of it! There was the lame man; there was the critical public; there was the memory of their own past failures, and there was the power of Christ. It conquered them all, and the man arose, and stood up. Not only did he stand, but the solution of Ibis problem included every other. He can earn his own living now, and needs not assistance. Every problem of life is bound up in the problem of the lame man being straightened and strengthened. It is smooth sailing after that. Lastly, tJbe man became a benefactor and praised fiod. He inspired the faith of men. Before, his very presence created pessimism; now it was faith and praise. The atmosphere of the man became a factor and-an asset in the progress of the world. We are either contributors-to or exhausters of the moral life of the world. Which is it? My subject gathers round these two.points: Fifst, the lame man, and, second, the men +Via instrumentality of XV H\J llilVUQU ?aav - _ Jesus Christ cured him. We as Christians stand in the apostle's place. Let us, under Christ, cure the lame, and if -we stand in the lame man's place Christ will make us whole. May we, like Peter and John, help the lame man to praise his God and inspire our fellow men for Christ's sake! The Upward toot. "It is of no use to tell me to look forward," said one in. great trouble, the other day, to a friend. "The worst of my trouble, I know lies ahead. Tc look back upon the past, before this shadow came, simply adds to my agony. I can only sit in the darkness, and-shut my eyes to everything, and bear as best I may." "There is always one way left," said the friend, gently. "When we cannot r ??/j ho/ifrnrnr/?. Wo pan look lOOli lUlWillU VI uu\.n?u.u upward. I have been in every whit as hard a place as you, and I sat a long while in the darkness before finding the way out. Try the upward lookit is meant for just such sorrows as this, which seem to shut in the soul inexorably. If we look up, we never look in vain." "Time alone can help such 6orrows as yours," said a woman who called herself a Christian, to a bereaved friend lately. There was no upward look suggested there. A heathen could have said as much. Time only can dull the edge of pain; the upward look robs suffering of its sting surely and lastingly. It is always possible to lift our eyes to the sky; and though at first, perhaps, we see only the clouds, we shall find it true before long that "Over all our tears God's rainbow bends.".. Bread Upon tlie Waters. One of the secretaries of the American Board says that some forty years ago he, a small boy, was inveigled by a sister into giving a precious (and regretted) fifty cents to a mission i /irlnAotlnn in TlirkPV Of UclliLi 1U1 iuc vaiuvu tiv/ij. ... _ w an Armenian girl named Koiiar. Year? may well tend to make one forget a vaguely distant Kohar, and even a painful sacrifice of which she was the inuocent cause. But the other daj Kohar came to light again; this tim? to astonish the good man with a gifl of $250 for the treasury of the Amer ican Board. The true convert knows the emotion of gratitude- exactly as well as her teacher. Strange Credulity. When Napoleon Bonaparte was once listening to a very improbable story related by Marshal Duroc, an avowed infidel, who protested that the story was true, the emperor quietly re marked: "There are some men whe are capable of believing everything but the Bible." This remark fr/ds abundant illustration in our age. Th( capacity of some persons to accepl any theory of the physical world ex cept that which makes God its autfioi is simply boundless.
