TONESL "CHRISTIAN CHILDHOOD."I Strong Sermon In the Methodist Church On Sunday by the Rev. J. A. Carlisle. Most of the churches of the city t were closed on Sunday morning, as I the different congregations have voted 1 their pastors a vacation. The Meth- j odist church, however, was filled with a large attentive and aprecia:ive audience, that enjoyed a strong and r forciful sermon delivered by the Rev. 1 Mr. J. A. Carlisle. After the usual t opening services Rev. Mr. Carlislei took his text trom i John 3:2. "Be- , hold now we~are the sons of God." After a few remarks laying the s:ress t on the "nw. he emphasized the fact that Christians. according to t Scripture. were sons of God. That there were many who had faith in Him, and believed in His word, but f did not claim this relation. The . speaker illustra:ed this relation by that of a child with its earthly par ent. pointing out'that a dutiful child accepted and endorsed everything that was of interest to its parents. and to be a child of God and co claim this relation wit'h Him we must have an interest in His work and everything that will benefit His people. Mr. Carlisle made some beautiful re marks about Christians deceiving themselves and not knowing their true relationship to God, and of the r privilege and o:bligations of Chris tian childhood. "The inheritance of a chil' is only obtained at the father's death: but the i,nheritance of a child Of God is at his own death." He con pared this life wi:h our school days. 1 saying that the word "commence- 1 ment" at the closing of a graduating class meant that the graduate then I commenced life on his own resources after completing his preparation: thus death finishes the preparation and Christians begin life in reality. After the sermon an impressive prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. I Graves. Every congregation in the city was represented and all seemed deeply interested in the sermon. Boland-Farr.
