text, I. Corinthians 0:20: "Ye are *?
bought with a price."
-Your friend takes you through his *
? valuable house. You examine the
f arches, ttio frescoes, the grass plots, ^
\ the fish ponds, the conservatories,
^^P^P the parks of deer, and you say within
yourself or you say aloud: "What '
did all this cost?" You see a costly
^^^P diamond flashing in an earring, or v
you hear a costly dress rustling f
across the drawing-room, or you see "
a high mettled span of horses harnesscd
with silver and gold, and you ^
begin to make an estimate of tho
The man- who owns a large estate
f cannot instantly tell you all it is
worth. He says: "I will estimate 8
so much fofr the house so much for "
/ the furniture, so much for laying out
the grounds, so much for the stock, ^
so much for the barn, so much for j
the equipage, adding up in all makIng
this aggregate."
, "Well, my friends, I hear so much
about our mansion in Heaven, about (
^ its furniture nnd the grand surround- ^
ings, that I want to know how much j
y it is all worth and what has actually p
been paid for it. I cannot complete
in a month nor a year tbc magnifi- ^
cent calculation, but before 1 get
through to-day I hope to give you ^
, the figures. "Ye are bought with a ^
__ J price." Jf'
Tho first installment paid for the j(
clearance of our souls was the igno- j
minious birth of Christ in Ilcthlehem.

looked after afterward, our ad- ^

r> an immortal soul into the world. **
HfcZ Even the roughest of men know ^
enough to stand back. But I have to
tell you that in the village on the
aide of the hill there was a very bed- '
lam of uproar when Jesus was born. **
In a village capable of accommodating
only a few hundred people many *
thousand people were crowded, and 0
amid hostlers and muleteers and cam- ?
el drivers yelling at stupid beasts of a
burden the Messiah appeared. No si- a

hare supposed that Christ would have ?|
made a more gradual descent, com- *

B Caesar'a palace, then to a merchant's ^
palace in Galilee, then to a private

which comes through tho door." What, *
Mary, no food? "None," she says,
"only that which was brought in the ^
sack on the journey." Let the P.ethlcWf

from manger to throne, and that all v

The second installment paid for our 1
soul's clearance was the ccene in Quar- ^
antania, a mountainous region, full of I ^
careras, where are to-day panthers 81
and wild beasts of all sorts, so that ?
you must now go there armed with 11
knife or gun or pistol. It was there s
that Jesus went to think and to pray, ft
and it was there that this monster of a
hell?more sly, more terrible, than ! Sl
anything that prowled in that country
?Satan himself, met Christ.

from food recorded in profane his- j "
tory is thnt of the crew of the

to eat. Rut this sufferer had fnsted
a month and ten days before he broke "
fast. Hunger must have agonized every Kfiber

I was in that pang of hunger that n
sua was accosted, and sataa said: w
Now, ciittaga thcss atones, which look ai
ke bread, into an actual supply of n
read." Had the temptation come to
ou and me under those circumstances ir
re would hare cried: "Bread it shall w
el" and been almost impatient at the h
line taken for mastication, but Christ m
rith one hand beat back the hunger *
nd with the other hand beat back the a
lonarch of darkness. O ye tempted w
nes! Christ was tempted. We are n
aid that Napoleon ordered a coat-of- d
nail made, but he was not quite cer- a
ain that it was impenetrable, so he c:
II id to the manufacturer of the coat-' n
f-niail: "Put it on now yourself and a
;t us try It." And with shot after I
hot fired from his own pistol the em- tl
eror found that It was just what it c
retended to be, a good coat-of-mail.
'hen the man received a large reward, b
I bless God that the same coat-of- ii
nail that struck buck the wenpuos of h
emptntion from the head of Christ if
i-o may now all wear, for Jesus comes t
,nd says: "I have been tempted, and I C
now what it Is to bo tempted. Take o
liis robe that defended me and wear t
t for yourselves. I shall seo you 11
hrough all trials, and I shall see you t
hrough all temptation." d
"But," says Satan still further to r
fesus, "come, and I will show you I
lomething worth looking at." And
fter a half day's journey they came to ^
erusalem and to tho top of the tem- y1
le. Just as one might gc up In the k
oxver of Antwerp and look off upon 1'
lelgium, so Satan brought Christ to B
he top of the temple. Some people at Sl
great height feel dizzy and a strange c
isposition to jump. So Satan comes H
o Christ in tiiut very crisis. Stand- ^
tig there at the top of the temple, they v
ooked off. A magnificent reach of 11
ountry. drain fields, vineyards, olive d
roves, forests and streams, cattle in T
he valley, flocks on the hills and vil- 11
,gcs ami cities and realms. "Now," v
ays Satan, "I'll make a bargain. Just *
unip ofT. I know it is a great way ?
rom the top of the temple to the val- a
ey, but if you are Divine you can fly. n
urop off. It won't hurt you. Angels ^
rill cateh you. Your Father will hold ^
ou. Besides, I'll make you a large ^
resent if you will. I'll givo you Asia *
linor, I'll give you China, I'll give you ^
Ethiopia, I'll give you Italy, I'll givfc v
ou Spain, I'll give you Germany, I'll P
^ive j'ou Britain, 1*11 give you all the I1
I'orld." What a temptation it must ^
avo been! '
The third installment paid for our 1
edemption was the agonizing prayer *
a Gethsemane. As I sat in that gar- ^
en at the foot of an old gnarled and ^
wisted olive tree the historic scene
ame upon nic overwhelmingly. These ,
Id olive trees are tho lineal descend- j(
nts of those under which CJirist stood ,
nd wept and knelt. Dave the leaves
f whole botanical generations told ^
he the story of our Lord's agony to
heir successors? Next to Calvary the
olemnest place in Palestine is Gethcmauo.
While sitting there it seemed
s if I could hear our Lord's prayer,
idon with sobs and groans. Can this ^'
e tho Jesus who gathered fragrance
rom tho frankincense brought to His
radio and from the lUios that flung ^
heir sweetness into IIi3 sermons and ^
rom the box of alabaster that broke r
t his feet? Is this Jesus the oom- w
orter of Bethany, tho resurreetor at *
ialn, the oculist at Bothsaida? Is 11
his tho Christ whose frown is the
torm, whose smile is tho sunlight, the
pring morning His breath, tho thuncr
ltis voire, the ocean a drop on the
ip of His linger. Heaven a sparkle on '
he bosom of His love, the universe the P
Wl-t/. VAf- t'nil MTe^
'hrist who is able to heal a heartbreak
or hush a tempest or drown a
vorld or llood immensity with His 1
:lory? Behold Him in prayer, the *
iobules of blood bv sorrow pressed ^
hrougb the skin of His forehead! *
i'hat an installment in part payment ''
f the greatest price that was ever c
aid! *
The fourth installment paid for our K
edemptlo.i was the Saviour's sham 11
rial. I call it n sham trial?there has a
n
ever been anything so indecent or
nfair in any criminal court as was *
witnessed at the trial of Christ. Why, **
liey hustled him into the courtroom j5
t two o'clock in the morning. They
ave llim no time for counsel. They n
ave him no opportunity for subpoe- *
aing witnesses. The rufkans who ^
iere wandering around through the
lidnight, of course they saw the nrest
and went into the courtroom. But
esus' friends wero sober men, were ^
espectnble men. and at that hour, two 1'
clock in the morning, of course they *
rere at homo asleep. Consequently
hrist entered the courtroom with the "
ufilnns.
Oh, look at Uiin! No one to speak a (
?ord for Hitn. I lift the lantern un- ^
11 I can look into His face, and as my
enrt bents in sympathy for this, theest
friend the world ever had, Him- 1
elf now utterly friendless, an ofileer ^
f the courtroom comes up and smites
lim In the mouth, and I sea the blood V
tcallng from gnin and lip. Oh, it was "T
farce of a trial, lasting only perhaps j.
n hour, and then the judge rises for
entence! Stop! It is against the J',
iw to give sentence unless there has
ecn an adjournment of the court be-, ?
ween condemnal ion and sentence, but ?
diat cares the judge for che law? "The ?
inn has no friends. Let Him die," K
lys the judge. And the ruiBans out- ?
dc the rail cry: "Aha, aha, that's
hat we want! Pass Iliin out here to
s! Away with Him! Away with *
im!"
Oh, T bless God that amid all the in- 11
lslieo that may have been inflicted
poll ur in this world we have a divine
,'mpathizer. The world cannot lie h
30Ut you nor abuse you as much as
icy did Christ, and Jesus stands toly
In every courtroom, in every w
ouse, in every store, and saysi "Courfel

amplcd upon." And when Christ for- d<

Further I remark: The last great
intullment paid for our .redemption
ns the demise of Christ. The world
as seen many dark days. Many sumcrs
ago there was a eery dark day
rLen the sun was eclipsed. The fowl
t noonday went to their pcrcli, and
re felt a gloom hb we looked at the
stronomlcul wonder. It was a dark
ay in London when the plague was
t its height, and the dead with uncovrcd
faces tvere taken in open curts
nd dumped in the trenches. It was
dark day when tho earth opened and
isbon sank, hut the darkest day since
ho creation of the world was when the
arnago of Calvary was enacted.
It was about noon when the curtain
egan to be drawn. It was the swiugig
of a great gloom all around the
eavens. Goil hung it. A? when there
i a dead one in the house jou bow
he shutters or turn the lattice, so
lod in the afternoon shut the windows
t the world. As it Is appropriate to
hrow a blaclt pall upon the coffin as
t pnsscs along, so it was appropriate
hat everyt hing should be somber that
ay as the great hearse of the earth
oiled on, bearing the corpse of the
ling. A man's last hours are ordilarilv
lcept sacred,. Ilowever you may
iave hated or caricatured a man,when
on hear he is dying silence puts Its
anils on your lips, and you would
iave a loathing for the man who could
tend by a deathbed making faces and
cofllng. But Christ in His lust hour
annot be left alone. What, pursuing
liin yet after so long a pursuit? You
iave been drinking His tears. Do you
rant to drink His blood? They come
p closely, so that notwithstanding the
Inrknoss they can glut their revenge
ritli the contortions of IT is countelance.
They examine His feet. They
rant to feel for themselves whether
hose feet are really spiked. They put
ut their hands and touch the spikes
nil bring them back wet with blood
nd wipe tliem on their garments.
Von.cn stand there and weep, but can
o no good. It is no place for the toner-hearted
women. It wants a heart
hat crime has turned into granite,
'he waves of man's hatred aud ot heir a
engeance dash up qgainst the manled
feet, anil the hands of sin and
ain and torture clutch for his holy
eart. Had he not been thoroughly
istencil to the cross thoy would have
orn Him down and trampled Him
rith both foot. How the cavalry
orses arohed their necks and champed
heir bits and reared and sniffed at
he blood! Had a Roman officer called
ut for a light, liia voico would not
avo been heard in the tumult, but
juder than the crash of spears, and
ho wailing of.womanhood, and the
eighing of the chargers, and the beliwlng
of the cruciflers. there comes
voice erashlug through?loud, clear,
verwheiming, tcrritlc. It is the groanig
of the dying Son of God' Look,
rhat a scene! Look, world, at what
du have done'!
I lift the covering from the malreateil
Christ to let you count the
ounds and estimate the cost. Oh,
'hen tho nails went through Christ's
Lgut nana raai Dotight your hands,
'ith all their power to work and lift
ud write! Whan the nails went
hrough Christ's right foot and
hrist's left foot, that bought your
cet, with all their power to walfc or
un or climb. When tho thorn we-ut ina
Christ's temple, that bought your
rain, with all its power to thjnk and
lan. When tho spear'cleft Christ's
V.'iti,'. V.'.yrVgVt ytJur heart, with all
ts power to love and repent and pray.
When the Atlantic cable was lost in
S6.1, do you remember that the Great
Eastern and tho Mbdway and the Alany
went out to find it? Thirty times
hey sank the grapnel 2*/, miles deep
a water. After awhile they found the
able and brought it to the surface.
Jo sooner had it been brought to tho
urface thun they lifted a shout of exltation,
but the cable slipped back
gain Into the water and was lost,
'hen for two weeks more they swept
he sea with the grappling hooks, and
t last they found the cable, and they
rought it up in silence. They fastened
t this time. Then with great excitelont
they took one end of the cable
o the electrician's room to see if there
rora rually any life In it, and when
bey saw a spark and knew that a mesuge
could be sent then every hat was
fted, and the rockets flew and tho
una sounded, until all the vessels on
be expedition knew, and the eontionts
were lashed together. Well, my
rlends, Sabbath after Sabbath Gospel
lessengers hare come searching down
or your souls. We have swept the sea
,'lth the grappling hook of Christ's
lospel. Again and again wo have
bought that yeu were at the surface,
nd we began to rejoice over your reeuiption,
but at the moment of our
ladness you sank back again into the
rorld and back again into sin. To-day
a oorne with the Gospel searching for
our soul. Wo apply tho cross of
hrist first to see whether there Is any
fe left in you, while all around the
eople stand, looking- to see whether
he work will be done, and the angels
f God bend down and witness, and,
h, if now we could see only ons spark
f love and hope and faith we would
end up a shout that would bs heard
n the battlements of Heaven, and two
rorlds would keep jubilee because
L?mmunicatlon Is open between Christ
nd the soul, and your nature that has
een sunken In sin has been lifted Into
ic light and joy of the Gospel.
