Tho mind and tho volco of Christ liavo eonsecratod thotn In a poo? ',111- and iinprosslvo manner to 11 Is cliuivh. The Borneo of Hie world-wide ap peal of Christianity lies, in largo measure, la its adapt ability (o tho needs of nil men and in tin- fact that In it nil tln> most exalted truths of nneionl and modern philosophies aro ervstali/od and culmlnntrd. And no wIkti' is t Ms more markedly demon strated than in tho parables. No man can light a candle hut tlx* words of Jesus blaze up In tho llamo. Think l'or a moniont how out of place and incongruous now patches aro oil old garments Tho parable of tho good Samaritan lias lod us ofton con sciously. more often unconsciously, to loud tho weak and tho fallen the helping hand Tho parables roach all 111011 be cause thoy depict and portray aivl depend for form upon tho world. Its actlvitios and Its people. Thoy are the product not of speculation hut of vital objective and subjective human experience. They are the epitomo of all that we see and hear and feel within us. Add to this that tho parables are pungnnt, cogent, profound, positive and pointed; and you have the keys to their Influence. The parables of Christ are pun frent. That Is to say they cut deep. When Jesus started to May sin or to declare truth lie went beneath tho surface of things apparent. Tho parable prices the surface and draws blood. The stool of Toledo or Shof Held or Damascus never made a deeper or :i cleaner cut. than the stinging language and tho caustic truths of tho parables made, and yet do make, into the vitals of sin. Let the self-righteous man testify to tho wrlthlngs of his soul under the lash of the scorn of Christ. Let him who Is wasting his talents toll of tho piercing words of Christ t6i liltu. Truth cuts. The parables of Christ declare tho truth and thus our sins are slashed. The parables of Christ are cogent, and for two reasons. Words*, I care not what may be their language or their grammar, nro potout Just In iiio proportion that.^ they bear a freight of truth,, mirror for us in language the many facts of life, und compelling)}*. No man is there so hard but he yields deference to truth. Sin shrinks from the light and sin ners see in slnlessness their hearts' best desires. Tho touch of truth transforms illiteracy and lends it charm and cogency. Language is never so magnificent, so moving, so Inspiring as when modiatlng truth to men. What to us Is tho halting, ungrnmmatical. mishandled English if, so bo, the light of truth irradiates ilio speech! And. on tho other haiuk what to us is the smooth, melli fluous language; what to us .are arts of polished rhetoric and of tho solf polsed, gifted orator; what to us uro the graceful gesture and the win Romeness of voice. If the speech lend aid to evil and tho speaker's heart be black'.' Truth cuts and It also counts. Pretense shears lan guage of power. Immorality of llfo or opinion damages effect. All the gifts and graces In tho world cannot avail to make the wrong acceptable to the pure and true In heart. The parables are cogent. Their truth forever sways the human mind. Philosophy has never yet surpassed them for they are the crown and tho consummation of immortal truths. Tho child can read and understand and find therein a scheme for life. And how truo to life the parables are. Portrayal Is powerful unto in Muenco. The touch of experience makes the wjiole world kin. That word picture holds most which re veals most. Tho kindergarten of language is full o? verbal photo graphs. What pictures are to the babe the parables aro to us. The charm of tho printed picture of the horse depends upon the vision of tho quadruped that the child has en Joyed. The power of the parable lies in itr. reproduction of the facts of life around us. No man knows so well tl.w value of a sure foundation as he who has built upon a cheap and tllmsy footing course. That friend of yours who is wasting God given opportunities has a keen ap preciation of a wastefulneso that Christ both portrayed and con demned. Put your candle beneath i a basket some night and then tell me how much light you recelva from it. My brother, that wa.a pretty poor fodder even for swine which we en deavored to subsist upon before tvo rushed back homo to God, wasn't it? The pal-abbs *nre photographs; true, faithful, convincing reproductions of our own experiences and of human ity's. Therefore they aro cogcxit and powerful, v The projtounaest thoughts are thd tuost roj/ut for influence upon the 11v?? h of men. Tho deepest truth, for which wo have to dig, attract* us moftl. Tho parables aro profound. They proisont a field not for tho grub hx? hut for tho pick. Tho search for truth leads a man, nvo compel* him, to cease ploeor mining and to Kink a shaft. Truth is to ho found most plentifully beneath tho.suffice. And 1uk^ as tho sight of pay dirt In the pan bonds the minor Into the depth* tor more so tho appropriation and appreciation, hy the aoekdr after truth, of surface .voritios impels bint to search deeper. The parables are deep. They not only <Jopict external eonditlons and portray, the visible and objective lads of ltfo but they also clothe and conceal a wealth of uiisi'ou truth that must he searched out t<i he scoured. The ring and the .calf and tho cloak and the feast hut toll in sUjr^tho outward evl donce of the ra{li*r>)^ love. Wo for get the sluiopiwhen we hear the voij-o of (Sod. Don't bother with tho veast; thinly* pi' tho spiritual uplift we would have and would become personally if we had tho fullness of tho kingdom of heaven within us. Tho parables are profound. Jf you are unconvinced. Just follow one of them to the end of its Implications, under the guidttneo of tho Spirit. Tho positiveness of 1 lie parables Is refreshing. There is no hesitancy about them. The Lord was certain that men could understand them if tljoy would. Me was sure that they fnlrrored life and would have a real- - appeal to men. Furthermore thero van *no doubt in tho mind of Christ that they eontaincd a measure of . ppiritual truth which any man, under the inlluenee of tho Snirlt, might: easily discern. No man has to think twice to understand that it. Is not only unfair but also wrong to make no use or feeble use of divinely be fltowed capacities. There la mis taking the assurance that the parablo affords the man who puts his trust in riches, that ho is a fool. Is there any doubt as to tho opinion Cod has or those Pharisees who bless their stars they are a little better than the common herd? The action of the yeast in tho dough presents a strong picture ot the power of truth. Those things that are cogent and positive almost always have point. The parables are pointed. They are both sharp and well alined. They, do not boat around the bush or be- '< fog the issue. They make straight for tho mark. The sower and hi? seed reflect tho Gospel and our hearts. The joy at the finding of tho money is llko to the Joy of the Father over tho lost who are found. The drawnot and its catch ought to make us less susceptible to class and social distinctions, and more cognizant of the fact, that the king dom of Cod is for all men. The spectacle of the cautious king who took tally of his troops should re veal clearly that wo cannot serve Jeans without spiritual preparation. Those ten virgins ought to warn u? that death-bed repentances are risky., just as certainly as tho tale Matthew tolls us of tho vineyard workmen and their hire admonishes us that we should bo cheerful not churlish because men who have been bad in this life enter repOntaht, by tho grace of God, Into equal salvation at the end of evil lives. The-. un parables have point and being well ' barbed and feathered they Uy true " ' and stick. Full of life, nnd redact- - lng life, they carry truth lastingly to our hearts. Profound, pointed, positive, the , pungent parables of Christ are co^-f gent. They are powerful to arrest ? attention and to hold it, and to ?*"> stimulate our thought. To appre ciate them best and for them to' bo most of benefit to us we must enter into tho mind of Christ. Filled with Ills Spirit and dominated by His love we shall ever discover won ders, comfort, peace. Inspiration In Ills truth. For Jesus is tho master teacher of tho ages. He is tho pro foundest philosopher of the world. Men may not accept Christian, the ology concerning Him, they may not accept Him as a Saviour in the Chris tian uso of the term; but' wherover there is a man of philosophic ability, whomever there is a mind of surpass ing Intellectual clarity, thero in Christ honored for His insight, Hia Intellectual acumen. His intensity of soul. The parables of Jesus are tbo messages of a philosopher and a Saviour. The Christian's Ascent* The Christian life is a continual renewal, but only as wo walk up & mountain is a continual ascent, and, if tho mountain is immeasurable, then, of course, the summit'la never reached, but. If the ascent is ever* forward, it is a privilege, not a hard ship, that we can continue to aacmd. ?J. H. Thorn. Speed Peaco on Earth.
