A SCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON BY
THE REV. J. A. R. CAIRNS.
Theme: The Glory of Death.
Belfast. Ireland. ? The famous
Tresbyterian divine, the Rev J. A. R.
Cairns, recently delivered the following
sermon entitled, "The Glory of
Death.'' He took as his text:
"To die is gain." ? Phil. 1:21.
"* ? * rpjjg vjctory,"?i Qot
57.
Is it not remarkable that the thing
that haunts us like a terror is the
thing that burns like an inspiration to
the men who wove together the teaching
of this Book? What we try to
forget, they strove to remember.
What we call calamity, they called
blessing and deliverance. What
makes us cry, made them rejoice.
The clearest teaching of this Book is
that death is glorious. It is an inspiration.
And that teaching makes
the uniqueness of the Christian Gospel.
Let us gather the incidents that
seem to present this teaching:
The great Teacher is going to die.
The hints at death grow clear and
unmistakable, and the hearts of the
disciples begin to fail them. The labors
and prayers and denials of those
busy, ministering years appear as
though they would issue in nothingness.
Even friendship is going to be
taken away," and out of all those
years only a memory will be left
them. No other issue seemed possible.
They had no knowledge and
they had no power.
And how did Jesus face that?
What does He say? What can He
say? He seems shut up by a logical
necessity to admit the dark forebodings
of His disciples. But it was just
there that the opportunity for the
new truth came?just at the point
when human effort seemed to fail and
human inspiration to die?that its
meaning could be vaguely felt if not
clearly understood. And His new
truth Is this simply?"That death is
glorious." It has a glory all its own.
John 14 gathers about that single
truth. That is its meaning, its purpose?"I
go to prepare a place for
you, that where I am there ye may
be also." "Let not your heart be
troubled, neither let it be afraid."
That friendship and that inspiration
and that teachingthat they loved
eo much and feared so much to lose,
would become deeper and fuller and
eternal because of the coming of
death. They would lose nothing,
they would gain much. "If ye loved
Me ye would rejoice because I go."
But you say Christ was somehow
unique. "He was tempted in all
points like as we are, and yet witnout
sin." With His spiritual vision and
power we can see how He could ba
fearless of death, and find in it a rich
and abiding testimony to the truth
of His Gospel, but what of the burdened
men?the men who walk in
mists and mysteries, who lack the
vision and the power? Can death
ever be less than a terror and devoid
of glory? Let us see. Take Paul.
Our text is his testimony and confession.
"To die is gain *, * * the victory."
Paul's life was hard. His years
were crowded with labors and denials.
How little response there
seemed to be for all he gave! And
what was it that burned before him
as the shining goal to which he
longed to come?what was the inspiration
that warmed his weary heart?
It was death. "I am in a strait betwixt
two?having a desire to depart
and to be with Christ, which is far
better. Nevertheless to abide in the
flesh is more needful to you." "I am
ready. * * * Henceforth there is
laid up for me a crown."
And what is the glad note that Peter
strikes to cheer the hearts of
those who suffer and pray and weep
and wait? What light does he throw
across the dark pathway of their
tribulation? "Nevertheless we, ac
cording to His promise, Jook ior new
heavens and a new earth wherein
dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore,
beloved, seeing that ye look for such
i things be diligent, that ye may be
found of Him in peace, without spot
and blameless." x
And what consolation stole into the
heart of that lonely thinker on Patmos
? shut away from work and
friendship, and suffering for the
cross? Who are these that are arrayed
in the white robes. "These
are they which come out of the great
tribulation, and they washed their
robes and made them white in the
blood of the Lamb. Therefore, are
they before the throne of God, and
serve Him day and night in His temple.
They shall hunger no more,
neither thirst any more, neither shall
the sun light on them or any heat.
For the Lamb which is in the midst
oi tne tnrone snail ieea tnem, ana
shall lead them unto living fountains
of water, and God shall wipe away
all tears from their eyes."
Such, then, is the view of death
that was taken by the disciples of
Jesus and the apostles of the early
Christian church. And I think it is
abundantly clear that most of us are
far away from such a view. Death is
to us the la6t calamity. We meet it
with fear and uncertainty.
How is one to account for this
strange dissimilarity? How has a
Joy become a heartbreak, and an inspiration
become a terror? If we
can answer this we shall answer
many lesser questions, and discover
how it is that not only in death, but
in sorrow and sickness and disappointment
we are missing the consolation
and the glory that ought to
dwell evermore in our hearts.
it is uit.'cw, i Luiinv, tucil iijc men
who found and held to the glory of
death were free from many of the
subtle temptations that surround our
lives. The atmosphere they breathed
was pagan. The work they did was
unpopular. The Gospel they professed
was bitterly ridiculed and opposed.
These men could not live
Christian lives as "of course." They
bad got to live it deliberately, passionately,
earnestly. They were driven
back to draw out of Christianity
the very richest that it would give.
To drift was impossible. They were
definitely out of it. And as they
faced it all with the Spirit of Christ
in their hearts, and with a great, heroic
faith in Hin). they discovered
how true He stood and what rivers of
strength outflowed from Him into
them!
The foundation of their fearless
ness was experience, and so personal
experience of Christ and their titter
Inability to find joy iu the world made
the glory of death.
Out of their circumstances and experiences
can't you catch a gleam of
something that is not ourown? Can't
you see something in their circumstances
and in their hearts that we
lack? 1 think both are abundantly
clear.
Take our circumstances. We live

To be a Christian is no longer t<

without apology. Nay! The under

tions is that a man is a Christian

ally and ostentatiously deny it. W<

the Christian foundation. But al
has degenerated to an idle form.
It has come to be taken for grant
ed. Men ask for baptism for thei
children and burial for their dead
because it is the usual, the expecte<
thing. And, brethren, don't you se
where it has led us to? To a Chris
tian formalism that contains no vital
ity, no power. We are living live
devoid of experience. We do not fee
the power of Christ, nor do we se
the glory of His living presence. W
mumble words that have no deep
abiding significance.
It is tragic; it is horrible. But i
is the spirit of the age. The Chris
tian life is losing much because of th
success of Christianity. Because i
has meaut and has accomplished s<
much, it means and accomplishes S'
little to-day. Its success is the caus
of our personal loss. It is an old his
toric truism that success is the be
ginning of defeat. It has happene<
in empires and religions. It is th
man who has to fight for his fait]
that holds that faith as his most cher
ished possession. We take Christ a
we take our daily bread, withou
one thought of all it means, of all i
represents.
And what of our experience? M
dear brethren, it is because we fini
our joy in the world and miss the jo;
of Christ that death has been cbangei
from a glory to a fear, from an in
spiration to a dismay. We hav
grown to love the world?this fading
dying world?its joys, its music, .it
rewards. We have grown to forge
the sacred, eternal words of Christ a
to what life is, and duty, and God.
And the years race on ? busj
crowded years of labor for place aw
' money and success. When the nigh
grows dark and lonely we cry fo
comfort, and when the day break
with golden beams of light we hastei
away and we forget. We forget! W
forget!!
Ah! it Is the man whose night ha
been the longest that knows Chris
the best and fears death the leasl
There are worse calamities than sor
row and defeat. One thousand nin
hundred years ago Jesus warned u
against success. It binds us and i
holds much from us. In the day o
our own sufficiency it is hard to se
and plan for Christ. Is it not impos
sible?
And then the days come when th
strength grows weak and the bod
fails and the clash of the world goe
back and back, and we lie and watc]
and wait and think! What comes
then? We grow afraid! We hav
had no true fellowship with Hire
We don't know Him. We can't feai
lessly trust Him. Others tell of Hi
keeping, and of the great, dear lov
He gave, otners go into me inist
singing and crying?Victory! Bu
we?we don't know. He hasn't bee:
experienced, and we miss the cei
tainty.
Oh, my beloved! I warn you tc
day! That day comes. You ar
grower older and weaker and tireder
You will lie down 'one day. An
when the tiredness is very great, an
the world has got your best?will yo
be able to say, "I am ready." "I hav
gotten the victory?"
This certainty ODly comes out o
faith in and service to Christ, out o
experienceof Christ. Ifinthemornin
you have no rich memories of Chris
inside your heart, if you have no es
periences of Him gathered insid
your character?oh! face it very eai
nestly, for the faith that change
death to an inspiration, and make
the corruption and 16nesomeness c
the grave an ideal and a power, i
the greatest thing in the world.
Death has another side. Of all i
means I cannot tell. Jesus uses tei
rible imagery that ought to startl
us. The worm dieth not; fire is no
quenched, and a great gulf opens,
have seen the face of men who mis
spent their youtn ana years, an
when manhood came it was hell! Bu
what may lie behind years and year
of forgetfulness of God? Who ca
say? One thing it is?it is the los

and all that it was created for. It J

Sustaining Power.
David Brainerd, the mighty apostl
to the Indians, was greatly blessed b
the sustaining power of the Hoi
Spirit. He writes on one occasio
when he was preaching to the Indian
at Crossweeksung, N. J.: "The powe

mors than six or seven years of age
appeared in distress for their soiih

To love Him is to live for others.
None remain hungry where He i

His glory has not lifted Him abov

Every profession of love must com

The best evidence of His conhdenc
in us is the call to Ilis service.
It is always easier to discuss th

A Poet's Testimony.
Herr Dehmel, one of the greatest
e living German poets of the "modern
school," says: "I have attempted sevt
eral times to write poetr;- under the
D influence of liquor, but the next morn'*
lug it appears to me to be mere
word play, monstrous fancies or con *
fused unconscious reminiscences." It
? is needless to say that Herr Dehmel
is now a total abstainer. A certain
? author and writer in Chicago who
a was accustomed to stimulate a
11 fagged brain with the use of brandy
e died a few years ago under peculiarly
distressing circumstances. Many
'J newspaper men who are obliged to
* work very much at high pressure on
rush editions are accustomed to keep
themselves up with stimulants. The
practice is always fatal ultimately to
0 the best results, and the writer who
'* forces himself by such means is
9 doomed to disappointment.
