I Hiiooklyn, N. Y.?Sunday morning the Rev. Dr. lloberl Hruoe llull, pastor of Greenwood liaptist Church, preached on "Comforting Certainties." Tlio text was from John iiirll: "We speak that wo do know." Dr. Hull said in the course of his lernion: These words were addressed to Nicode?nus. He was an earnest, honest, yet timid inquirer after truth. lie had come to .Trans ntwlnr MVfli1 ?< .1?1 ? A- ... official of the Jewish Sanhedrim. he <1 i<1 not dare to he Been talking with the Nnzarenc Teacher. Yet he in convinced in his own mind that Jesus is a prophet and that, too, a pronhet sent of God. This much ho confesses to the Christ. Then liepins the wonderfully instructive interview from which the text is taken. This interview is evidently onlv an outline, but tlie outline is marvelously suggestive. Nicoddinus was a good man. He was a religious man. He conformed to all the religious forms and ceremonies of his nation. 11i-c outward deportment was blameless and his standing in the community was honorable. Hut lie was not a spiritual mm. lie i was not what we would call to-day a converted 111.! II . 'I'll llfm .1 ncnu solemn double "Amen, anion, 1 say unto tlice." Nieodomua could not understand what Jesus meant by being born again. He was unable to see what that new spiritual life was of which he himself was lacking. Then it is that the third double amen of Je>us introduces the words of the text: "Vetilv, j verily, I pay unto thee, we speak that we do know and testify that we have seen." 1 Tn this utterance Jesus uses the word "we," not simply as the plural of majesty, but connecting Himself with all Mis disciples, so that it is perfectly proper and riffhfc for n? tn-rlnv in ucn Il?e 1.. ...wl pny: "We speak tliat we ?lo know." Chris- , tians are competent witnesses to the certainties of religion. While in a sense it may bo .-..ii<l tliat "the ttihlu and tiio I> l>'o alone is the religion of J'rotostants," yet in tlie fuller sense our religion is a life. * Christ i< Christianity. His life in Himself ind in J lis disciples is the spirit and the power of true religion. We have something more than opinion; something better than creeds; we liave as one of the eternal verities Jesus Christ as the manifestation of God. It Ins boon well said that "Ciirist pitlier deceived mankind by conscious fr/llld" or 1 I?? IMS lliinunlf .Inln.lnJ .1.. reived, or lie was divine. There is no getting out of this trilcmma. It is inexoral)le." He stood before the men who knew Jlim best and said: "lie that haili seen liatli Been I tie Father." and attain declared to them: "J nnd My Father are 'me.'' This was tremendous assumption and awful blaspheniy if it was not the truth. That it i.s the truth the course of time and the course of Christianity both abundantly declare. The verities of our precious faith cluster about a person. This person was God, manifest in the flesh, and for all the centuries since Uethlehem the noblest, wise-t nnd holiest have bowed before Him, reverently exclaiming, "My Lord and my God!" It matters not from what point we view Him, .lesus stands before the wor'd is more than man. it i.s said of a safe and perfect nreh that it must meet two require mi-ill*, us ieei inusc not m11p and its middle must not bend. Jesus Christ m the arch connecting Itutnanity and divinity. Tho .weig'rt of the centuries of Christianity rest on that arch and th.'.v rest there safely, for "Jesus i.s Cod; there never was a time when lie was not; Boundless, eternal, merciful, the word, the Sire begot; Backward our thought* through ajit'" stretch, onward through realms of bli^s, For there are two eternities and both alike are Ilis." Another of the certainties is that the Christian life is a divine life. This was a new thought to Nicodemug. Tt is a new thought to many to-day. It was not a figure of speech, but a plain statement of fact, when Jesus insisted that it was neee.-sarv to be born again in order Wo ent< r heaven. Those of Nieodemus' time would have said it was necessary lo reform, t > ileal honestly, to behave kindly, i>> live uprightly. ?So many say to-day, and if by all this thev mean uprightness in its perfect r i 1.1 ? i ? jui in iiii .v are rigut. jwt no man lias ever lived who ..as been thus upright "All have sinned and come .short of the glory of God." The history of mankind shows that >ve must. not seek nolincf.s in order to God, hut God in order to holiness. Christ mu :t come into the sold of man with His divine life, and then, and not til! then, are we in harmony with tlie divine holiness. When that life conies in then them is manifested the "expulsive power of a new affection," hotter still, th<; expulsive power of a new life. Nothing 1ck.h than lile can ?:cconnt for the change in men. Nothing >ut life can exert the power which the centuries of Christianity have manifested. In physios we atlinn confidently that, everv o" feet must have an adequate cause. This also is true in the realm of spirituality, if y>< rseeutors are changed into preachers, if those once thoroughly depraved have been ii . ... js of linve been transj'oniutl into tinparalleled martyrs for t .? truth. it < >mn;"? people I'r.ve been i tsliior.ed into tlio < . wlniii) tin" world was not wort I:'.*? wo what cause or what power in a-loon r fo; noli ma;velous ahtinn-.

The anoatl" says: "f'hript is in yon the hope of glory," ! and it ;i? certainly true that Christ must j bo in u? tlic power for glory. Thus thai centre of our certitude is v luist Himself. We know Him. We know His power. L ? lias been cxerciscd upon us and in us. Like the once blind beggar, we exclaim: '"One thing 1 know, whereas, 1 was blind, now I tec." There was no note of uncertainty about this; there should be no note of ud> fccrtaintv about our uttcranccs concerning tur faith or conccrninjj our own yoaitioa. I But in this age of uoubt many Christians , are so frightened out of sanity that they are afraid to say even of the deepest experiences of the soul, "I know." Not so Paul, facing fleath: "I know whom I have believed." Not so John, the beloved dis?:..u ?n'. i ii..i ? i. , njjiv, iivxiaiuig, u t* ivnuw null Wt' llllVl' passed from death unto lift. We know that when He shall appear we shall he like TTitn." It is not modesty, hut laek of faith which prompts Christians to say, "! hope I am a Christian." When we have life we know it and should not he ashamed to say so. If we have not the life then by all the importance of eternity make sure of obtaining it. It is possible to have a living experience of .Tcsus Christ. To have such an experience that we may say: "I live, vet not I. but Christ, liv^th in me" llelief may be glorified into this exper.ence if we yielft ourselves completely and unreservedly to Him who is able to "keep that which we hive committed to lliin against that day." The effect of this certainly is in every way most precious and helpful. Consider for a moment what this certitude means in the presence of the awful calamity which Insf. enmnjoi' tonf o around thn globe. True, indeed. is the Scrioture declaration "if in this life only wo have hope in Christ we are of all men most. miserable." If death were the end of all then we might well believe that cruelty sat in the throne of the universe. Hut, staggered as all Are by the unutterable sorrow, yet God rules and overrules, and though we cannot sec it now, yet in eternity we shall know that the carelessness? or worse?of man has he? overruled to eternal good. Because we know that God is love, and because we know Jesus s'ill lives and is the same to-day as when He shed tears at the grave of Lazarus, we dare to go into bereaved homes and speak of the reunion at the right. iia> d of the throne of God. I went over to the pier where lav hundreds of the unclaimed bod'es, and t would not have dared to do it, but that 1 might comfort sr.me heu.tbroken one with the assurance that God cared, God loved anu in eterniry i-oa won in mai<c mm unspeakable sadness n source of perpetual j joy. Can I explain it? No! But t could rot preach. T could not liold up my head as a Christian if T did not believe; yea. if I did not know, that somehow, some time, I tlte curse shall be ehamzcd into a blessine; j This in the nrivilejre of Christian* to ?a* even now: "We know that all th'nc work together for eood to them that love Clod." Wliv i? it that all do not know these thincr#? Pavi.lv because of their condition. There are to-day tliosc who ''having eyes see not. and having earn hear not." The influence of trnini'ij: is not easily overcome. Trained only to consider n?: real rhat wnieh can be analyzed by scientific implements, men refuse to admit the re:ditv of thinus which they cannot weipli in their scales or measure by their rules. Tliev are honest. So is the blind man honest who savs color does not exist. So is the deaf man honest whose soul cannot be moved by the ennrori; or rwcci - oiinc!'-'. il is 11<?r, n question of honest v. but of fai t. r?od is. even thoneh the unbelieving eye may .sweep the heavens with tiie telcseope and assert 1 cannot sf>e Ood. Hut tru>,tin<? hearts will s-iy with ever increasing certitude: '"I know whom 1 believe." This civos rs comfort in sucb a time as this. It is the only thine which can give comfort. So, brethren, let lis place ourselves in the bawls of a lovinz f?od. Let lis lean on (he divine riower. Let ns trest the divine wisdom. T.ot us assure ourselves of Imp divine liomo in those mansions whieh divine love 'ins prenared for uh, and lot ua be eor.fidi ut that "Tr'nl work# for ends Too l? ifli for Miinf to fraer?

( On the outskirts of Cairo one day wo saw a row of workmen on the railway lining up just as the muez- j Ain's call to prayers rang out from an udjacent masque. "Look," cried I.
