NATIONS ARE JUDGED
GOO REWARDS AND PUNISHES THEM
ON EARTH.
Ilev. Dr. Tnllimire I,ikcnn Otnl'H
Judfrnfonts to tho Swift Streep of a
I{ usor—\ it 11 on a 1 Sinn Call Down the
l.ortl'n Wratb.
Washington, Sept. 10.—Dr. Talmage,
in his journey westward through Eu
rope, lias recently visited scenes of
thrilling historic events, lie sends this
sermon, in which he shows that na
tions are judged in this world and that
God rewards them for their virtues
and punishes them for their crimes.
The text is Isaiah vii, 20, “In the same
day shall the Lord shave with a razor
that Is hired, namely, by them beyond
the river, by the king of Assyria.”
The Bible Is the boldest book ever
written. There are no similitudes in
Ossian or tho Iliad or the Odyssey so
daring. Its imagery sometimes seems
on the verge of the reckless, but only
seems so. The fact Is that God would
startle and arouse and propel men and
nations. A tame and limping simili
tude would fail to accomplish the ob
ject. While there are times when he
employs In the Bible the gentle dew,
and the morning cloud, and the dove,
and the daybreak In the presentation
of truth, we often find the iron chariot,
the lightning, the earthquake, t’.**
spray, the sword and in my text the
razor. This keen hladed Instrument
has advanced in usefulness with Ihe
ages. In Bible times and lands the
beard remained uncut save in the sea
sons of mourning and humiliation, but
I Ihe razor was always a suggestive
I symbol. David said of Doeg, his an
tagonist, "Thy tongue is a sharp razor
i working decitfully”—that is. it pre
tends to clear the face, but is really
! used for deadly incision. i
In Ibis striking text this weapon of
tho toilet appears under the following
elreumslaneis: .Iiulaa needed to have
some of its prosperities cut off, and God
sends against it three Assyrian kings
! —first Sennacherib, then ICsailmddon
and afterward Nebuchadnezzar. These
three sharp invasions, that cut down
: the glory of Juda a, are compared to so
many swee;*t of the razor across the
i
I f:icr of the Innd. And these devnsta-
! tions were called a hired razor because
i God took the kings of Assyria, with
whom he had no sympathy, to do the
work and paid ihom in palaces and
spoils and annexations. These kings
were hired to execute the divine be
hests. And now the text, which on its
first reading may have seemed trivial
or inapt, is charged with momentous
import, “In the same day shall thP
Lord shave with a razor that is hired,
namely, by them beyond the river, by
the king of Assyria.”
Well, if God's judgments are razors,
we had better be careful how we use
them on other people. In careful
sheath these domestic weapons are put
away, where no one by accident may
toueii them and where the hands of
children may not reach them. Such
instruments must be carefully handled
or not handled at all. But how reck
lessly some people wield the judg
ments of God! If a man meets with
business misfortune, bow many there
are ready to cry out: "That is a judg
ment of God upon him because he was
unscrupulous or arrogant or overreach
ing or miserly. 1 thought lie would
get cut down! What a clean sweep of
everything! Ilis city house and coun
try house gone. Ilis stables emptied
of all the line bays and sorrels and
grays that used to prance by his door.
All his resources overthrown, and all
that he prided himself on tumbled into
demolition. Good for him!” Htop, my
brother. Don't sling around too freely
the judgments of God, for they are ra
zors.
Two Side* to Every Story,
Some of the most wicked business
men succeed, and they live and die in
prosperity, end some of the most hon
est and conscientious are driven into
bankruptcy. Perhaps the unsuccessful
man's manner was unfortunate and he
was nof reallj as proud as he looked to
be. Some of those who carry their
heads erect and look imperial are hum
ble as a child, while many a man in
seedy coat and slouch hat and unblack-
cd slices is as proud as Lucifer, i’ou
cannot tell by a man's look. Perhaps
lie was not unwerupuious in business,
for there are two sides to every story,
be suspected his king might be Incar
cerated. ho sang two lines^jf song and
immediately King Richard responded
from his cell with the other two Hues,
and so his thereabouts was discovered,
and a successful movement was at
once made for his liberation. So let us
go up and down tho world with the
music of kind words ami sympathetic
hearts, serenading the unfortunate and
trying to get out of trouble men who
had noble natures, but by unforeseen
circumstances have been incarcerated,
thus liberating kings. More hymn-
book and less razor.
Especially ought we to be apologetic
and merciful toward those who while
they have great faults have also great
virtues. Some people are barren of vir
tues: no weeds verily, but no Howers.
I must rot be too much enraged at a
nettle along the fence if it be in a hold
containing 40 acres of ripe Michigan
wheat. Some time ago naturalists told
us there was on the sun a spot 20,000
miles long, but from tin* brightness and
warmth I concluded It was a good deal
of a sun still. The sun can afford to
have a very large spot upon it, though
it iio 20,000 miles long, and I am very
apologetic for those men who have
great faults while at the same time
they have magnificent virtues.
tiod'H I'rovldenee.
Again, when I read in my text that
tho Lord shaves with the hired razor of
Assyria the land of Judaea I tidnk my
self of the precision of God’s provi
dence. A razor swung the tenth part
of an inch out of the right line means
cither failure or laceration, but God's
dealings never slip, and they do not
miss by the thousandth part of an inch
the right direction. People talk ns
though things in this world were at
loose ends. Cholera sweeps aor<>*i
Marseilles and Madrid and Palermo,
and we watch anxiously. Will the cpi-
deiaic sweep Europe and America?
People say: “That will entirely depend
on whether tho inoculation is a suc
cessful cxp-Tinient; that will depend
entirely on quarantine regulations: that
will
depend

it is ail guesswork and all appalling
pot haps.” I think perhaps that God
had something to do with it and that
Ins mercy may have in some way pro
tected us, that lie may have done as
much for us ns the quarantine and the
health officers. It was right and a ne
cessity that all caution should be used,
but there have come enough macaroni
from Italy and enough grapes from tin*
south of I'ranee and enough rags from
tatterdemalions and hidden in these
articles of transportation enough chol
eraic germs to have left by this time all
the cities mourning in the cemeteries.
1 thank all the doctors and quaran
tines, but more than all and first of all
and last of all and all the time I thank
God. In all the G.000 years of the
world’s existence there has not one
thing merely “happened so.” God is
not an anarchist, lint n King, a Father.
When little .Tad, the son of President
Lineohi, died, nil America sympathized
with the sorrow in the White Iloyse.
He used to rush into the room where
the cabinet was in session and while
the most eminent men of the land
were discussing the questions of na
tional existence. But the child had no
care about those questions. Now, God
the Father and God the Son and God
the Holy Ghost are in perpetual session
In regard to this world and kindred
worlds. Shall you, his child, rush In to
criticise or arraign or condemn the di
vine government? No. The cabinet of
the eternal three can govern and will
govern in tho wisest and best way, and
there never will be a mistake and, like
razor skillfully swung, shall cut that
which ought to be avoided. Precision
to the very hairbreadth. Earthly time
pieces may get out of order and strike
wrong, saying it is 1 o’clock when It is
2 or 2 when it is 3. God’s clock is al
ways right, and when it Is 1 it strikes
1. and when It is 12 it strikes 12, and
tli” second hand is as accurate as the
piltuite hand.
Tiie Lord'll Hired ftnroru.
Further, my text tells us that God
sometimes shaves nations: “In the
?ame day shall the Lord shave with a
and everybody that
accomplishes any-
others gets indus-
IVrliaps his Intsl-
uot ;i punishment,

tin* Lord’s razors lest they cut and
wound people that do not deserve It,
If you want to shave off some of the
bristling pride of your own heart, do
so, but be very careful how you put Ihe
sharp edge on others. How I do dis
like the behavior of those persons who,
when people are unfortunate, say, “I
told you so; getting punished: served
him right.” If those I told you so’s
got their desert, they would long ago
have been pitched over the battle
ments. The mote in their neighbor's
eyes, so sn fill that it takes a micro
scope to find it, gives them more troij-
Me than the beam which obscures IIicIk
own optics. With air sometimes su
percilious and sometimes Pharisaical
and always blasphemous they take the
razor of divine judgment and sharpen
it on the hone of their own hard hearts
and then go to work on men sprawled
out at full length under disaster, cut
ting mercilessly. They begin by soft
expressions of sympathy and pity and
half praise and lather the victim all
over before they put on the sharp edge.
Let us be careful how we shoot at
others lest wo take down tho wrong
one, remembering the servant of King
William Uufus who shot at a deer, but
the arrow glanced against a tree nud
killed the king. Instead of going out
with shafts to pierce and razors to cut,
we hud better imitate the friend of
lUclmrd Cnnir do Lion. Itielinrd, in
the war of the Crusades, was captured
and Imprisoned, but none of his friends
knew where, so his loyal friend went
around the laud from stronghold to
stronghold and sang at each window a
snatch of song that Ulchurd Cu*ur do
Lion hud taught him In other days.
And one day coming before u Jull where
sweep lie went across Juihca, and down
went its pride and its power. In 1801
God shaved the American nation. We
had allowed to grow Sabbath desecra
tion and oppression and blasphemy and
fraud and impurity and all sorts of tur-'
pitude. The south laid its sins and the
north its sins and the cast its sins and
tlic wi st its sins. We laid been warned
again and again, and wc did not hood.
At length t!u> sword of war cut froni
the St. Lawrence to tin* gulf and from
Atlantic seaboard to Pacific seaboard.
The pride of the land, not the cow
ards, but tin* heroes, on both sides
went down. And that which we took
for the a word of war was the Lord's
razor. In 180,2 again it went across
llie land; in 1S<;3 again; in 1S(»I again.
'J’hon the sharp instrument wgs incased
and put away.
Never In tin* history of the agos was
any land more thoroughly shaved than
during those four years of civil combat,
and. my brethren. If we do not quit
sonic of our individual and natlona)
sins tin* Lord will again take uu in
hand, lie lias other razors within
renib besides war. Epidemics, droughts,
oeiugos, plague* -grastdiopper and lo
cust or our ov-rtowering success may
so far excite the jealousy of othey
lands that under some pretext thci
great nations may combine to put us
down. Our nation, so easily approach
ed on north and south and from both
oceans, might have on hand at once
more hostilities than were ever array
ed against any one power. I hope no
such combination against us shall < vor
he funned, hut I want to show that as
Assyria was the hired razor against Ju-
da-a and Gyrus the hired razor against
Babylon and the Huns the h|t*cd razor
against the Goth iherc are now many
razors that the Lord could hire If be
cause of our national sins ho should un
dertake to shave us. In 1S7<) Germany
was tin* razor with which the Lord
shaved France. Japan was the razor
with which he shaved China and Amer
ica the razor with which he shaved ar
rogant, oppressive and Bible hilling
Spain. But nations art* to repent In a
day. May a speedy and worldwide
coining to God hinder on both sides tho
sou all national calamity. But do not
let us as a nation either by unrighteous
law at Washington or bud lives among
ourselves defy the Almighty.
Dltine Clemency.
One would think that our national
symbol of the eagle might sometimes
suggest another eagle* thgt ytUKAi in
dent Rome carried. In the talon* of
that eagle were clutched at one time
Britain, Fiance, Spain, Italy, Dalma
tia, Rhretiu, Norlcuni, I’annonia, Moe-
«ia. Dacia. Thrace, Macedonia, Greece,
Asia Minor, Syria, Phoenicia, Palestine,
Egypt and all northern Africa and all
the islands of the Mediterranean—in
deed all the world that was worth hav
ing; 120,000,000 of people under the
wings of that one eagle! Where m she
now? Ask Gibbon, the historian, in his
prose poem, the “Decline and Fall of
the Roman Empire.” Ask iter gigantic
ruins, bemoaning their sadness through
the ages, the screech owl at windows
out of which worldwide conquerors
looked. Ask the day of judgment, when
her crowned debauchees, Cominodus
and Pertinax and Caligula and Diocle
tian, shall answer for their infamy. As
men and as nations let us repent and
have our trust in a pardoning God
rather than depend on former success
es for immunity. Out of 13 of the
greatest battles of the* world Napoleon
had lost but one before Waterloo. Pride
and destruction often rode in the same
saddle.
But notice once more anil more than
all in my text that God is so kind and
loving that when it is necessary for
him to cut he has to go to others for
the sharp edged weapon. “In the same
day shall the Lord shave with a razor
that is hired.” God is love. God is
pity. God is help. God is shelter. God
is rescue. There are no sharp edges
about him, no thrusting points, no in
struments of laceration, if you want
balm for wounds, he lias that. If you
want divine salve for eyesight, he lias
that. But if there is sharp and cutting
work to do which requires a razor, that
he hires. God has nothing about him
that hurts save when dire necessity
demands, and then he lias to go chat-
off to some one else to get the instru
ment. Tills divine ch'inencj* will be no
novelty to those who have pondered
the C'alvarenn r.iarsac-re, where God
submerged himself In human tears and
crimsoned himself from punctured ar
teries and let the terrestrial and infer
nal worlds maul him until the chande
liers of the sky had to be turned out
because the universe could not endure
the outrage. Illustrious for love in*
must have been to take all that as our
substitute, paying cut of his own heart
the price of our admission at the gates
of heaven.
A WondroTiH Scone,
King Henry II of England crowned
his son as king and on the day of coro
nation put on a servant's garb and
waited, he, the king, at the son’s table,
to the astonishment of all the princes.
But we know of a more wondrous
scene, the king of heaven and earth of
fering to put on you, his child, the
crown of life and in the form of a serv
ant waiting on you with blessing. Ex
tol that love, all painting, all sculpture,
all music, all architecture, all worship!
In Dresdenian gallery let Raphael hold
him up as a child, and' In Antwerp ca
thedral let Rubens hand hint down
from the cross as a martyr and Handel
make all his oratorio vibrate around
that one chord—“He was wounded for
our transgressions, bruised for our in
iquities.” But not until all the re
deemed got home and from the counte
nances in all the galleries of the ran
somed shall be revealed the wonders of
redemption shall either man or seraph
or archangel know the height and
depth and length and breadth of the
love of God.
At our national capital a monument
in honor of him who did more than any
one to achieve onr American independ
ence was for scores of years in build
ing, and most of us were discouraged
and said it never would be completed.
And how giad we all were when in the
presence of the highest otliclals of the
nation the work was done! But will
the monument to him who died for ilio
eternal liberation of the human race
ever be completed? For ayes the work
lias been going up. Evaagelists and
apostles and martyrs have been adding
to the heavenly pile, and every one of
the millions of redeemed going up from
earth has made to it contribution of
gladness, and weight of glory is swung
to the top of other weight of glory,
higher and higher as the centuries ?•..>
by, higher and higher ns the whole mil
lenniums roll, sapphire on the top of
Jasper, sardonyx on the top of eltalced-
ony and chrysoprasus above topaz,
until far beneath shall be the walls and
towers and domes of our earthly eapi-
tol, a monument fore ver and forever
rising and yet never done: "Ento him
who hath loved uk and washed us froiq
our sins in his own blood and made us
kings and priests forever.” Alleluia,
