That coming dis course may net be .”f) years off. Ami let us pray God that its arrival may be ‘hastened while I announce to you what I think will be the chief char acteristics of that discourse or exhorta tion when It docs arrive, and 1 want to j make my remarks appropriate and sug- i g. .stive to all classes of Christian work ers. ,\ T.lvinty CiiriMt. First of all, 1 remark that that future religious discourse will be full of a liv- j ing Christ in contradistinction to di- ! dactie technicalities. A discourse may i be full of Christ though hardly men- j Honing his mime, and a sermon may be j empty of Christ while every sentence | is b petitions of his titles. The world j wants a living Christ, not a Christ standing at the head of a formal sys- I tern of theology, but a Christ who ' M-aiis pardon and sympathy and con- ! doletiee and brotherhood and life and j heaven, a poor man’s Christ, a rich man’s Christ, an overworked man’s Christ, an Invalid's Christ, a farm er’s Christ, a merchant’s Christ, an artisan’s Christ, an every man’s Christ. A symmetrical and tine worded sys tem of theology is well enough for the ological classes, but it lias no more business in a pulpit than have the technical phrases of an anatomist or a psychologist ora physician in the sick room of a patient. The world wants help, Immediate and world uplifting, and It wiil come through a discourse in which Christ shall walk right down into the immortal soul and take ever lasting possession of it. liliing it as full of light as Is th!s.noon lay firmament. That sermon or exhortation of the future will not deal with men in the threadbare Illustrations of JesusClirist. I In that coming address there will be ] instances of vicarious suffering taken right out of everyday life, for ihere is not a day when somebody is not dying for others -as the physician saving his diphtheritic patient by sacrificing Ids own life; as tho ship captain going down with his vessel while he Is get ting his passengers into the lifeboat; as the fireman consuming in the burning building while he is taking a child out of a fourth story window; as in sum mer the strong swimmer at East Hampton or Long Branch or Cape May or Lake George himself perished try ing to rescue the drowning; as the newspaper hoy one summer, support ing his mother for some years. Ids in valid mother, when offered by a gentle man hf) cents ft) get some special pa per. and he got it and rushed up in his anxiety to deliver It ami was crushed under the wheels of the train and lay on the grass with only strength enough to say, “Oh, what will become of my poor, sick mother now?” Vlearlov»f< suffering—the world is full of it. An engineer said to me on a locomotive In Dakota: “\Vc men seen to he coming to bettor appreciation than we used to.

Ob, my friends, what the world wants Is not a cold Chrlsf, not an in tellectual Christ, not a severely magis terial Christ, but a loving Christ, spreading out his arms of sympathy to press tiie whole world to his loving heart. Short Sermons. But I remark again that the religious discourse of the future will have to be short. Con leiisation is demanded by the ago in which we live. No more introduction:! and long u[s plications ami so many divisions to a discourse belt it may be said to be ii'.rd. In ether days men got information from the pulpit, re f«w b ioks, and there were papers, and there was little travel from [dace to place, and people I would sit and listen two and a half hours to a religious discourse, and I “Si-venteenthly” would find them fresh ! and chipper. In those days there was I enough time for a man to take an hour i to warm him elf up to the subject and ! an hour to cool off. But what was a I * | necessity then is a supertluity now. j Congregations are full of knowledge from books, from newspapers, from S rapid and continuous intcreoinmuuicu- j tion and long disquisitions of what ! th.-y know already will not he abided, j if a religious teacher cannot compress ! what he wishes to say to tiie people In | the space of -lb minutes, better adjourn i it. to some other day. The trouble is we preach audiences i into a Christian frame, and then we | preach Uu m out uf it. We forget that ! every auditor has so much capacity of ‘ attention, and when that is exhausted he Is restless. That accident on the Long Island railroad years ago came from the fact that the brakes Mere oat of order, and when they wanted to stop the train they could not stop, and hence the casualty was torrilic. In all religious discourse we want locomotive power and propulsion. We want at the ..';me time stout brakes to let down at the right instant. It is a dismal thing, afur a hearer has comprehended the whole subject, to hear a man ray, “Sow to recapitulate,” and. “A few words by way of application,” and "Once more,” and "Filially,” and “N’ow to coeeiudo.” Haul preached until midnight, and Eutycliiis get sound asleep and fell out of a window and broke his neck. Some would : ay. “Good for him.” 1 would rather be sympathetic, like Haul, and resuscitate him. That accident is often quoted now in religious circles as a warning against somnolence in church. It is just as much a warning to minis ters against prolixity. Eutychus was wrong in his somnolence, but Fatil made a mistake when he kept on until midnight, lie ought to have stepped at 11 o'clock, and there would have been no accident. If be id might have gone on to too great length, let all those of us who are now preaching the gospel remember tiiat there is a limit to re ligious discourse, or ought to be, and that in our time we have no apostolic power of mirach s. Napoleon in an ad dress of seven minutes thrilled hi-s army and thrilled Europe. Christ's sermon on the mount, tiie model ser mon, was lees than l-' minutes long at ordinary mode of delivery. It is not elrcii'ieity scattered ail over the sky that strikes, hut electricity gathered inte a thunderbolt and hurled, and it is not religious truth altered over and spread out over a vast reach of time, but religious truth projected in com pact form that Hashes light upon tho soul and rives its indifference. I'o polar 15 1m e.'i nr. When the religious discourse of the future arrives in this hind and In tho Christian ehureii, the discourse which Is to arouse the world and startle the nations ami usher in the kingdom, it wiil bo a brief discourse. Hear it, all theological students, all ye just cater ing upon religious work, all ye men ami women who in Sabhath schools and other departments are tolling for Christ and the salvation of immortals — brevity, brevity! But I remark also that the religious discourse of the future of which I speak will lie a popular discourse. There are those in these times Mho speak of ti popular sermon as though there must he something wrong about it. As these critics are dull themselves, the world gets the Impression that a sermon Is guild in proportion as it is stiqi'd. Christ was the most popular preacher the world ever saw and, con sidering the small number of the world's population, had the largest au dience ever gathered. He never preach ed anywhere without making a great sensation. Feople rushed out in the wilderness to hear him reckless of their physical necessities. Bo great was their anxiety to hear Christ that, taking no food with them, they would have fainted and starved had not Christ performed a miracle and fed them. Why did so many people take the truth at Christ’s hands? Because they all understood it. He Illustrated his subject hy a hen and her chickens, by a bushel measure, by a handful of teilt, by a bird’s flight and by a Lily’s groimi. All the p; ople knew wliat he meant, and they Hocked to him. And M'hcn the religious discourse of the future appears it will not be ITlneeto- nian, not Koehestcrian, not Antloverlan, not Mlddletonlnn, but Olivetie plain, practical, unique, earnest, comprehen sive of all the woes, wants, sins ami torroM's of an auditory. But when that exhortation or dis course does come there will be a thou sand gleaming selmlteis to charge on It. There are in so many theological seiiilaarles professors tilling young men how to preach, themselves not knowing how, and 1 am told that if ft young man in Mini • of our theological seiiiiuaiies says anything quaint or thrilling or unique faculty uu l stu dents Hy at him and set him right arid straighten him out and smooth him down and chop him off iiutil he says who have had trouble only thought they could get practical and sympa thetic help in the Christian church, there would not be a street in Wash ington or New York or any other city which would be passable on tin* Sab bath day if there were a chinch on it, for all the people would press to that asylum of mercy, that great house of comfort and consolation. lOeelestmatUvil Mninmicn. A mother with a dead babe in her arms came to tho god Siva and asked to have her child restored to life. The god Siva said to her. “You go and get a handful of mustard seed from a house in which there has been no sorrow and in which there lias been no death, and I will restore your child to life.” So the mother went out, and she went from house to house and from homo to home looking for a place I where there had been no soitom’ and ^ where there hail been no death, but she | found none. She went back to the god ! Siva and said: “My mission is a failure. You see, I haven’t brought the mustard seed. I can’t find a place where there has been no sorrow and no death.” “Oh!” says the god Siva. “Understand, your sorroM’s are no worse than the Borrows of others. We all have our griefs, and all have our heartbreaks.” Laugh, an l the world laughs with .vou; Weep, and you weep alone; For tho sad old earth must borrow its mirth, Dut has trouble enough of its own. We hear a groat deal o? discussion now all over the land about why peo ple do not go to church. Some say it is because Christianity is dying <*ut and because people do uot believe iti the truth of God's word, and all that. They are false reasons. The reason is because our sermons and exhortations are not Interesting and practical and helpful. Bo me one might as well tell the whole truth on this subject, and so I will tell it. The religious discourse begins.” Oh, my friends, when oi.r watch has ticked away for us the last moment, and our clock has struck for us tho last hour, may It bn found we did our work well, that we did it In the very best way, and, whether we preached tho gospel in pulpits, or taught Sabbath classes, or administer ed to the sick as physicians, or bar gained as merchants, or pleaded the law as attorneys, or were busy as arti sans or husbandmen or as mechanic g or were, like Martha, called to give i meal to a hungry Christ, or like Han nah, to make a coat for a prophet, or like Deborah, to rouse the courage of some timid Barak in tho Lord’s con flict, wo did our work in such a way that it Mill stand the test of the judg ment! And in the long procession of the redeemed that march around the throne may it he found that there are many there brought to God through our instrumentality and in whose res cue wo exult. But let none of us M’lio are still unsaved Malt for that religious discourse of the future. It may come after our obsequies. It may come after the stonecutter has chiseled our name on the slab fit) years before.

A Noted 1‘reuclicr in t: ilYuty. Rev. J. M. T. Otts, D. D , L. L D , of Knoxville, Tenn., will preach in tho Fresbyterian church tomorrow night.

Oh, when the future religious dla- ( i.'ir c of the Chjlstliiu church arrive• tdl the churches of Christ In our great cities will be thronged! The world wants spiritual help. All who have burled their dead went comfort. All know themselves to be titortal and to be immortal, and they want to hear about the great future. I tell you, my friends, If the people ojf our great cities Hflluio'is AwuUeiilnK. But, I remark again, the religions discourse of the future will be tin awakening sermon. From altar rail to the front doorstep, under that sermon, an audience Mill get up and start for heaven. There will be in it many a staccato passage. It will not be a lul laby. It Mill be a battle charge. Men Mill drop their sins, for they will feel the hot breath of pursuing retribution on the back of their necks. It will be sympathtic with all the physical dis tresses as well as the spiritual dis tresses of the world. Christ not only j preached, but ho healed paralysis, and he healed epilepsy, and he healed the dumb and the blind and the lepers. That religious discourse of the future will be an everyday sermon, going right doM t. into every man’s life, and it will teach him how to vote, how to bar gain, how to plow, bow to do any work he is called to do. how to M'ield trowel mid pen and pencil and yardstick and plane, and it M’ill teach women how to preside over their households and how to educate their children and how to Imitate Miriam aud Esther and Yashtl and Eunice, tho mother of Timothy, and Mary, the mother of Christ, and those women Mho on northern and southern battlefields More mistaken bj the wounded for angels of mercy, fresh from the throne of God. Yes, I have to toll you, the religious discourse of the future will he a re ported sermon. If you have any Idea that printing Mas Invented simply to print secular books, and stenography and phonography were contrived mere ly to set forth secular Ideas, you arc mistaken. The printing press it» to be the great agency of gospel proclama tion. It Is high time that good men, instead of denouncing the press, em ploy it to scatter forth tho gospel of Jesus Christ. The vast majority of people In our cities do uot come to church, and nothing but the printed termon can reach them and call them to pardon and life and peace and heaven. I So I cannot understand the nervous- - ness of boine of my brethren of the ministry. When they see a newspaper man coming in, they say, “Alas, there Is a reporter!” Every added reporter is 10,tMK), 50,000, 100,000 immortal souls added to the auditory. The time Mill come when all the village, tovvit and city newspapers will reproduce the gospel of Jesus Christ, and sermons preached on the Babbath will rever berate all around the world, and, some by type and some by voice, all nations will be evangelized. Tho praetleal hearing of this is upon those Mho are engaged in Christian work, uot only upon theological stu dents and young ministers, but upon all who [(reach the gospel and all who exhort In meetings and all of you If you aro doing your duty. Do you ex hort In prayer meeting? Be short and spirited. Do you teach In Bible class? Though you have to study every night, he Interesting. Do you accost people cn tho subject A religion in their homes or In pti^lc places? Study adroitness and use common sense.
