LUTHER R. DYOTT. Subject: Sure Foundations. Brooklyn, N. Y.?'The Rev. Luther R. Dyott, pastor of the United Congregational Church, preached Sunday norning on "The Indestructible Fotinlations." He took his texts from Psalms xi.:3: '"If the foundations be lestroyed, what can the righteous do?" lebrews xi:l (revised version): "Faith s the assurance of things hoped for, he proving of things not seen;" II. timothy 1:11 (revised version): "I mow whom I have believed, and am jersuaded that He is able to glard that ivhich I have committed unto Him igaiust that day." Mr. Dyott said: We seek the solid and safe in the hings of the unseen world. This is >f supreme importance. Other things n this connection are relatively im>ortant. They are to be thought of, md appreciated, and even sought, 'ound and kept. We must have them. Room for the active life of a growing jelief is indispensable. A place for the iweet and sustaining comforts of the nri*Pi' hnno r\f hnm.mltv is flpstrnhle. Che garniture of refineil and iminortul ove is ever to be regarded as ir.ore han a mere luxury of the inner life. )tber work is important; but only so to t comparative degree. Tedious and temporary is the task f the theologian. Unsatisfactory is. he task of the ereed-maker. Small is he task where "jarring sectaries" earu their selfish interest to discern, ind, not unfrequently, to become irreigious in the name of religion. Spasuodic the task, and thankless the efort of the iconoclast. Feverish and itful, though somewhat sensational ind imperious, is the task of the sfl;sntist. But all who are concerned ibout building character upon indestructible foundations and are actively ngaged in this work, are realizing that t'hich is of supreme importance, as day >y day, hour by hour, moment by monent, rises that "house not .made with lands." Here-we must toil with clear mderstandlng, magnificent courage nd untiring patience. Here we must ie serious and certain. It is a fine intimation and a hopeful ndication that, in some vespects, at east, we are equal to the Uemands. Ve do desire foundations which caniot be destroyed. Here we are serious nough when we are serious at all. Ve do not wish to be deceived with eference to these tilings. We delibrately prefer not to have our fountains 4s l{f/\ nrticAtiA/l Wr r\ i onf f a A. Ui.C puiouucu. IT c IV 1U& destruction of the foundations of belef. Error, falsehood, deceit are bad nough anywhere, but they do the most arm if admitted into the affairs of reigion. He who poisons my body may nly affect the place where my real ife sojourns for a little while, but he rho poisons my mind and my soul does ie untold harm for eternity. He and 1 lay never be able to make satisfactory epairs of some kinds of destructive irork. Most of us think so. We do esire the solid and safe things of the mmutable Verities of truth which will tand the tests. "If the foundations e destroyed what can the righteous o?" The strongest emphasis of our times, specially in matters of religion, is beog placed upon tbe demand for the eal. Notwithstanding the prevalent uperficiality of our age, the quick ales of birth-rights for pottage, the eated passion for pleasure, the gaudy how of those who "glory in appearnce and not in heart;" notwitlistandig the fact that we are living in grievous times" when so many are lovers of self, lovers of money, boastul, haughty, railers, disobedient to arents, unthankfui, unholy, without atural affections, implacable, slanderrs, without self-control, fierce, no lovrs of good, traitors, headstrong, puffed p, lovers of pleasure rather than lovrs of God, holding a form of godliness ut denying the power thereof;" notwithstanding the fact that in the very burcb, itself, there are certain oscilla>ry movements calculated to perturb tie life of some believers; notwitlitanding all these things, and many lore, still the underlying current is toward the fuller and freer life, and the nraediate and increasing demand in lie religious life is of the "assurance f things hoped for, the proving of aings not seen," and for that certitude f knowledge which enables the indiidual believer to stand upon some inestructible foundation and say, "I now whom I have believed, and am ersuaded that He is able to guard lat which I have committed unto Him gainst that day." Good is deeper than evil even in perdus who do not profess to be good, lie oscillations of belief may be perlitted of God Himself, and end in oing much good for the common faith f Christendom. The unsettled condion of certain moods of faith may only ?veal at last that there are some lings which can not be shaken and mst remain. God may be permitting ie shaking up in order that we may ave the removing of those things that re shaken, as of things that are made, lat those things which can not be tiaken may remain. Ours has been illed an "age of doubt," but the evience and proof of the claim are not Itogether satisfactory. Professor ames says: "Our religious life lies lore, and our practical life less, than used to on the perilous edge." But oes not the professor attempt to draw distinction where no distinction beings? Is not our religious life, in fact and , 1 fine, a practical life? Are not the lost practical deeds in the world born , C religion? Good life, good thoughts, 1 ood words, good deeds belong to re- . gion whether they be done in this or , lat church, or bear no ecclesiasticai 1 tamp at all. Reality is at a premium i the religion or to-day. Let us De<eve that the demand for the real, le desire to Investigate, the new statelents of old truths, the rewriting of < )me theology, the revising of some ; reed, the call for a new adjustment f things, do not invariably imply the Kistenee of doubt and the destruction 1 f the foundations of belief. If, in- 1 eed, this be doubt, then it is not the < ind of doubt that we need to fear. If : lese things destroy our foundations. ; will prove nothing more than that I e wert on temporary and destructible 1 mndations, when we should have had smething better. 1 King calls our attention to tbe fact lat "just as the acceptance of the rinciple of the correlation of forces illed for a rewriting of physics?a new hysics, or the theory of evolution for tie rewriting of biology?a new biolgy, so, in the same sense, the accept- i nee of certain great convictions of our ay calls for a rewriting of theologynew theology." Call it a new theolsy if you will, but do not let prejudice lind you to truth, no matter from rhich direction truth may come. A tiing is true not because its statement } old, nor yet because that statement 5 new, but because it conforms the reat fact, or facts, for which that ; rutli stands. Tlie great fact, or facts, I ack of the truth and its statements, | % * . .. .. do not change. Theological statements and systems may change. Some persons may become angry, others frightened. and still others foolishly and flippantly declare that they have no theology; but, in the meantime, theology remains the. greatest science in the universe, even- the science of God and divine things, based upon a revelation made of God. through Jesus Christ; and that science, itself as such, does not change. God's foundations are firm amid all the mutations which mark the history of the human race; amid all the storms and shocks: amid all the disintegrating agencies; amid the rise and fall of empires; amid the birth, tjhe growth, ipaturity, the old age and death of nations; amid things present and things to come, life and death, in spite of everything that may oppose, or assail, belief, character, hope, love, incorruptible life all may have perfectly indestructible foundations. What are some of these foundations? Religious experience; mac is an eAjjerieiitt; vi God in the soul of man is an indestructible foundation. Such experience is knowledge derived from fact and abiding in spiritual consciousness. "God is a spirit." Man is a spirit. There is possible contact .aid communion here. There is the possibility of the best knowledge in the world right here. Fact, evidence, proofs, knowledge, they are all here. Knowledge has found the proof; proof implies the existence of the evidence, evidence implies the existence aud reality of the fact, while -The primary datum abides in experience. When a man has a religious experience then he has an indestructible foundation. He cannot then be morally ignorant. He knows something. That which a man sees may deceive him. That which he hears may not always be so, but that which he knows, he knows, and no man can take it from him. He is upon a foundation which cannot be destroyed. Then faith finds her best function in establishing the fact, in dealing in the great, unseen realities which are always more than the seen, in giving the "assurance of things hoped for, in proving things not seen." A man cannot subject such an experience to the test of the natural senses. It is too large for such a lest as .tnar, out ne Knows ne is ngni, auu he knows he is upon an indestructible foundation. It is not only our knowledge of God. There is another indestructible foundation in His knowledge of us. It is written: "Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, hav- I iug this seal, the Lord lcnoweth them that are His." He cannot mistake. We could not deceive Him, even though we might deceive others, or be deceived by what we might suppose to be experience, even religious experience, even though Ave might deceive ourselves. God knows. Of tbls we are certain. He knows us perfectly. If we are His, He knows it. If we are not His, by the regeneration of the Holy Spirit, we may become His. He will know. He will cause us to know it. "The secret of the Lord is with them that fear Him." He desires it to be there. Every man has just as much right to know that he is alive spiritually as he does that he is alive physically. This knowledge is brought to us in the witness of God's spirit. Thus it is that we go deeper than religious experience and find another foundation in that firm foundation of God?His knowledge of us. Jesus Christ is another foundaAt r-r_ x rro*** null, ne is uur uiiici wuniciaivuc. j.uc ideals He holds, His simplicity, His grandeur, His limnanity. His Deity, His faith, His love. His life?all combine to make Him the perfectly incomparable one among all religioas teachers; and while in a certain profound sense Christ and Christianity are one and inseparable, there is still another sense in which Christ, as our foundation, is more than Christianity, even as the sun is more thau the multitudinous rays which fall upon our little portion of the earth: Christ is more than Christianity, as the thinker is more than his thought, as life is more than that which embodies life. We build, as Christians, not upon thifs or that creed about Christ, but upon Christ Himself. He is our indestructible foundation. Our faith rests at last, not in a creed, though we should all have a creed, and not in a book, though we can never do without the Bible, but in a person, and that person, Christ, places our lives upon God. Let us resolve to go deeper, deeper. If we are at all unsettled in matters of religion, we should not despair. We can find the solid nud the safe. Let us build there. Let us build according to the plans of the Supreme Architect of the universe. Let all build until humanity shall become a temple complete, filled with the light and music of Heaven, filled with the life of God; and then, even though storms may come and the last night fall about us, it will only be the servant of a new day, and we shall be able to say, "I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to guard that which I have committed unto Him against that day." Our foundations cannot be destroyed. Thank God! The Talent That Multiplies. God blesses you that you may be a blessing to others. Then He blesses you also a second time in being a blessing to others. It is the talent that is used that multiplies. Receiving, unless one gives in turn, makes one full and proud and selfish. Give out the best of your life in the Master's name for the good of others. Lend a hand to ?very one who needs. Be ready to serve at any cost those who require your service. Seek to be a blessiner to every one "who comes for but a moment under your Influence. This is to be angel-like. It is to be God-like. It is to be Christ-like. We are in this world to be useful. God wants to pass His gifts and blessings through us to others. When we fail as His messengers, we fail of our mission.?Scottish Reformer. Wholesale Thanksclving. A somewhat irreverent boy once suggested to his father that he should ask a blessing over a whole barrel of meat without waiting, for it to be served at Lhe table and the blessings asked at each meal. He had a sort of formal recognition of the propriety of thanksgiving, but wanted it attended to at such times as would not interfere too much with his own comfort. So a great many persons are willing to recognize God if it can be done in some way that does not interfere with their own plans in life and their own equipments.?Ram's Horn. Soldiers* Greeting!. During the recent war in the Transvaal, when the soldiers going to the front were paslng another body of soldiers whom they recognized, their greeting used to be, "Four-nine-four, boys, four-nine-four," and the salute would invariably be answered with "Six further on, boys, six further on." rhe significance or tms was tuar, in the little book of Moody and Sankey hymns which had been sent to the front, number 494 was "God Be With You Till We Meet Again," and number 300 (or six further on than 494) was "Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine."?
