"I go a-dshtagl" cried Simon Peter
to his oomradoa, and tho most of tho
apostles had bauds, bard from fishing
teoklo. Tho fisheries of tho world have
always attracted attention. In the
third oonfury tho quoou of Egypt had
ior pin money $470,000, rouged from
tho fisheries of ?mko Moorls. And, if
tho timo should ovor come when tho
Immensity of tho world'? population
could not bo fed.by th? vegetables and
wueatB oi the laud, tho sea has an
amount of animal lifo that would feed
all tho population of the earth and fat
ten thom with a food I hat by it* phos
Shorus would make a gonerution
rainy and intellectual beyond any
thing that tho world has ever imag
ined. ,$iytext'takes us among tho Gali
lean fishermen. Olio day Walter Scott,
while hunting in au old drawer, found
among BomO> old fishing tackle the
manuscript of his immortal book,
j "Waverley," which ho bad put away
I thor o as of no,worth, and Who knows
but that to-day we may find somo un
known wealth of thought while look
log at the fishing taoklo in the toxt.
It is not a good day for fishing, ond
throo mou aro in tho boat repairing
tn? broken fishing nota. If you aro
fishing with u hook and lino, and the
--jflsh will not bite, it ia a good timo to
put tho angler's apparatus luto bettor
condition. Perhaps tho last fish you
hauled in was so large that something
?napped? or, if you were fishing with a
not, there was a mighty floundering
of the scales or an exposed nail on tho
.Ide of, tho boat which broke somo of
thc threads and let part or all of tho
captives of tho deep oscape into their
natural ?lom?nt. And hardly nny
thlng ls more provoking than to nearly
land a score or a hundred trophies
from tho deep, and when you are in tho
Cull gleo of hauling in tho spotted
treasures, through somo imperfection
of tho net thoy splash back into tho
* .wave. That is too much of a trial of
patience for most fishermen to endure,
and many a mon ordinarily correct of
apoeoh in such circumstances comes to
fen . atOnsity of utterance unjustifiable.
Therefore no good fisherman con Sta
ats tho time wasted that is spent in
mending hi? nets yow, tho Bible again
aud again represents Christian work
ore aa fishers pf men, and we are all
awceping through the tea pf humanity
com? kind of a not. Indeed there have
been enough nets out and enough fish
ermen busy to have landed the whole
human raco in the kingdom of Clod
long before this. What is the matter?.
The Gospel is all right, and it bas been
ft good time for catching souls fort hou
. sands of years. Why, then, tho fail
ures? Tho trouble is with tho nets,
and most of them need to be mended. I
g>reposo to show you what is the mat
ter with most of the nets and how to
mend them. In thc text old Zebedeo
.nd his two boys, Jamos and John,
were doing a good thing whon they sat
lu tho boat mending their nets. .
The, trouble with many of our not?
'''IFtn?V tho moshes aro too largo. -If
A-floh ?an got his gills and half his
body through tho network, he tears
and rends and works his way out, and
leaves the plaoe through which he
?oulrmed a tangle of broken threads.
In onr desiro to make, everything so
easy wo relax, wo loosen, wo widen'.
(Wo lot mon after they are once in
tho Gospel not escape into tho world,
and go into indulgences and swim all
?round Galileo, from north side to
aouth side, and from ensfc nido to Avest
aldo, expeoting that they will come
baok again. Wc ought to make it easy
#or thom to get into tho Kingdom of
God, and, ns far as wo eau, make it
Impossible for them to get out. Tho
poor advloo nowadays to many is;
"Go and do just or, you did beforo you
were oapturod for God and Heaven.
The net WOB not intended to be o ny
restraint or any hindrance. What you
did before you wore a Christian do
?ow. Go to all stylos of amusement,
road all the? otrylca of books, ongngo
In all styles of behavior na bofore you
were eonvortod." And so, through
these meshes of permission and laxity,
they wriggle out through this open
ing andi that opening-, tearing tho not
ea thoy go, and soon nil the eoula that
WO expeoted to land in Heaven, bo
tfore we know lt, are back in tho deep
tea of tho world. Oh, when, wo go
a-Gospei fishing, lot ua muk? lt ns easy
a? possible for souls to got in and as
hard-as petal bl o to got out.
Ia tho Bibi? language an unmeaning
verbiage when it talks about solf-de
mial, and koopiug the body under and
about walking tho narrow way and
.ntoring tho strait goto sud about
? carrying tho cross? I? there to bo no
way of telling whether a mon is o
. Christian oxoopt by bia taking tho
communion chalioe on sacramental
day? May a mau be ns reckless about
his thoughts, about bia word?, about
his temper, about his amusements
siter conversion as before? Alas, tho
svorda of Christ are so llttlo heeded
when Ho saids ''Whosoever doth not
tbaar hia cross and come nf tor me can- I
?ot bo my disciple." Tho church io i
fast becoming as bad ns tho world, '
??nd when lt get? aa bad aa tho world
lt will be worse thau the world by so
much, os it will add hypocrisy of a

moro. There should be no rivalry be
tween churches. Kaoh one does a
work peculiar to itself. But thero are
cities in this country where there in
now going on an awful ripping and
rending and tearing of fishing lu ts.
Indeed all over Christendom at this
timo thero is a gorat war going on
between fishermen, ministers against
ministers.
Now, X hate noticed a man cannot
fish abd fight at tho samo time. Ho
either neglects his net or his musket.
It is amazing how muon timo soino of
tho flohormen havo to look after other
fishermen. .It ia more than I oan do
to tako care of my own net. You see
tho wind is just right, and it is such a
good time for fishing, and the fish aro
coming in BO rapidly tb ?it I havo to
koop my oyes and hand busy. Thero
are about UOO.000,000 souls wanting to
gxst into tho kingdom of God, and it will
require all tho nets nnd all the fisher
men of Christendom to safely land
them. Oh, brethren of tho ministry,
lot us spend our time in fishing in
stead of fighting. But if I ang rily jerk
my net across your net, and you jerk
your net angrily across mine, wo will
soon havo two broken nets and no fish.
Tho French revolution neaaiy destroyed
tho French fisheries, and ecclesiastical
war is tho worst thing possible while
hauling souls into tho kingdom. My
frionds, I notice in the text that.Tames,
tho son of Zebedee, and John, his
brother, were busy at mending some
body else's net?, and I rather think that
wo who aro eagngod in Christian work
in this opening century will require
all our spare time tc mend our own
nets. God help UB in the important
duty!
In this work of repair we need to
put into the nets more threads of com
mon sense. When wo can present reli
gion as a great practicality wo will
oatch a hundred souls where now wo
catch one. Present religion ns an in
t?llect?^nty.?nd wc will ?ail. Out,in inc
fisheries there are set aoross tho wa-'
tcrs what are called gill nets, and tho
fish put their heads through the meshes
and then cannot withdraw them be
cnu60 thoy aro oaught by the gill?.
But gill nets cannot be of any serviooin
religious work. Men are never oaught
for tho truth by their heads; it is by
the -heart or not at all. Nc argument
ever saved a man and nc keon analysis
ever brought a man into thc kingdom
of God. Heart work, not head work.
Away with your gill nets! Sympathy,
helpfulness, consolation, lovo, are tho
names of uomt of tho thread? that wo
need to weavo in our gospel nets when
we are mending them, i
When you aro mending your net for
thi* wide, deep sea of humanity, toko
out that wiro thread of oriticism and
that horsehair thread of harshness
and put In a soft silken thread of Chris
tian sympathy. Yca? when you . are
mending your nets toar out tboso old
threads of gruffness and weave in a
few threads of politeness and geniality.
In tho house of God let all Christian
faces beum willi a look that means
welcome. Say "good morning" to the
stranger as he enters your pew and at
the olose shake hands with him and
say: "How did you like the music?"
Why, you would be to that man a panel
of tho door of'Heaven; you would bo to
him a noto or tho doxology,(that ser
aphs Bing when a new soul enterB Heav
en. I havo in other dnys entered
a pew in church, and tho woman
at thc other end of tho pow looked at
me ns niuoh as tosny: "How claro you?
This is my pew, nnd I pay Hie rent for

ner and made myself as small ns pos

stealing something. Ro there ar? peo
ple who have a sharp edge to their re
ligion, nnd thoy net as though they
thought most peoplo had been el co ted
to bp damned nnd they were glad of it.
Oh, let ns brighten up our manner nnd
appear in gentlemanliness or lady
hood.
Agnin, in mending our nets Ave need
also to put in the threads of fnitb and
tour out nil tho tangled meshes of un
boliof. Our work is successful accord
ing to our faith. Tho man who be
lieve* in only half a Bible or tho Bible
in spota, tho man who thinks he can
not porsundo others, tho man who
halts, doubting about .thia and doubt
ing about that, will be a failure in
Christian work. Show me the man who
rather thinks that the garden of Eden
may have had nn allegory nnd is not
quite certain but that thoro may bo
another chanoe after death and docs
not know whother or not the Bible is
inspired, and I tell you that mun for
soul saving is a poor stick. Faith in
God and in Jesus Christ and the Holy
GhoBt and the absoluto neoesstfty of a
regenerated heart in order to soo God
in peace is one thread you must have
in your mended net, or you will never
bo a successful fisher for men. Why,
how can you doubt? The rottenest
thread to tear out of your net ie unbe
lief, and the most important thread
that you are to put in it ig faith-faith
in God, triumphal*t faith, everlasting,
faith.
Oh, this important work of mending
our notul If wo could get our nets
right, we would accomplish more in
soul saving In tho next year than we
have in tho last 20. Bu whore shall wc
got them mended? Just whero old Zeb

had no timo to go ashore.. They wcro
not fishing for fun, as you and I do

These dear brethren of nil denomi
nations, afflicted with theological Adg
cts, had better go to mending Hots in
stead of breaking them. Before they
break up tho old religion and try to
foist on us a new religion let them go
t'hroogh some great sacrifice for Grid
that will prove them worthy for such
a work, taking the advice of Tnllyrnnd
to a man. who wanted to upset the re
ligion of Jesus Christ and start a new
ono when ho said: "Go and be cruci
fied mid thon rnijrc yourself from tho
gravo tho third dayl" Those who
propose to mend tholr neto by secu
lar and skeptical books aro like the
man wfao bas just one wooli for Ash
ing, and six of tho days he spends in
reading Izaak Walton's "Completo
Angler" and Wheatley's "Bod and
Line" lind Scott's "Fishing in Northern
Waters," and Pullman's "Vndo Jiecum
of Fly Fishing for Trout," nnd thon
on Saturday morning, his last day out,
goos to tko river to ply his art. But
that day tho fish will not bite, and
late on Saturday night he goes to his
home with empty basket. Alas, alas!
if when tho Saturday night of our
lifo drops on us it shall bo found that
wo havo spent our timo in tho libraries
of worldly philosophy, trying to mend
our nota, and wc have only a few souls
to roport as brought to God through
our instrumentality, while- eomo hum
ble fisherman, his library muda up of
a Biblo nod on almanac, aimil come
homo hidcu with tho results, his
trophies all the souls within 15 miles
of ltis-log .cabin meeting hom~e.
Tn, the timo, of great disturbance in
Naples in 1049 Massuniello, a barefoot
ed llshing boy, dropped his fishing rod
aud by strunge magnetism took com
mnnd of that city u? GOO.OOO souls. He
took ort his Ashing -jacket nnd put on a
robe of gold in the presence of howling
mobs. Ho put his hand on his lip ns
a signal, and they were silent. Ho
waved his hand away from him, and
they retired to their homes. Armies
passed in review before him. Ho be
came the nation's'idol. Tho'rapid rise
and complete suprcmaoy of that young
fisherman, Massaniello, has no parallel
In all history^ But something equal to
that and better than that is on every
day ooourrenoe In Heaven. Go'd takes
some of those who in this world were
ii nh oro of men nnd who toiled very
humbly, but because o*f tho way thoy
mended their net?? and employed their
nets-after they were mended He sud
denly hoists them and robes them and
soeptcrs thom and crowns them and
makes them rulers over many cities,
nod Ho marches armies of saved ones
beforo them in review. j
But do not spend your time Ashing
with hook and line. Why did not
James, the son of Zebedee, sit on the
wharf at Caun, his feet hanging over
tho lake, and with a long pole and a
worm on the hook dipped into the wave
wait for some milliet to swim up and
bo caught? Why did not Zebedee
spend his afternoon trying to catch one
eel? No, that work was too slow.
These men wero not mending a hook
and lino; they wero mending their
nets. So lot the ohurch of God not be
content with having hero.one soul hud
noxt month anothor soul brought into
the kingdom. Swoop all tho seas with
nets-Bcoop nots, seino nets, dragnets,
air encompassing nets, and take" tho
treasures in by hundreds and thou
sands and millions, and nations will be
born in a day and tho hemispheres
quake with the tread of a ransoming
God. Do y-ou know what will bo tho
two most tremendous hours in Our
Heavenly existenco 7 Among the* quad
rillions of ages which shall roll on
what two occasions will bo to us tho
greatest? The day of our arrival there
will bo to us one of tho two greatest.
The second greatest, I thlnl?, will be'
the day'when 'we shall nave 'put In
parallel lines beforo us what Christ did
for us and what we did for Christ, tho
ono so great, the other so little.' That
will be the only embarrassment ;in
Heaven. My Lord atid'niy God.:, Whftt
will we do and what viii wo Bay when
on one sido are placed the. Saviour's
great sacrifices for us hud our small
sacrifices for Him; His exile, Bis hu

our poor, weak, insufficient sacrifices
on the other. To make the wutrast
