Dr. Tnlmnga Warns Chrlatians ARninst llnrsli Criticism — He 11 r- plorrs Dcnoinlnntlonnl Strife In n«tapel Work. Washington, Jan. 27.—In thla dis course Dr. Talmage describes the gos pel net nud how It is to be repaired aft er being damaged; text, Matthew Iv, 21, ‘‘James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother. In a ship with Zebe dee, their father, mending their nets.” “I go a-Qshiug!” cried Simon Peter to his comrades, and the most of the apos tles had hands hard from fishing tackle.. The fisheries of the world have always attracted attention. In the third cen tury the queen of Egypt had for pin money $470,000 received from the fish eries of Lake Moeris. And, if the time should ever come when the immensity of the world’s population could not he fed by the vegetables and meats of the laud, the sea has an amount of animal life that would feed all the populations of the earth and fatten them with a food that by Us phosphorus would make a generation brainy and intellec tual beyond anything that the world has ever Imagined. My text lakes us among the Galilean fishermen. One day Walter Scott, while hunting in an old drawer, found among some old fish ing tackle the manuscript of his im mortal boot, “Waverley,” which he had put away there as of no worth, and who knows hut that today we may find some unknown wealth of thought while looking at the fishing tackle in the text. It is not a good day for fishing, auJ three men .are in the boat repairing the broken fishing nets. If you are fishing with a hook and line, and the fish will not bite, it is a good time to put the angler's apparatus into better condi tion. Perhaps the last fish you hauled In was so large that something snap ped. Or, if you were fishing with a net, there was a mighty llounderiug of the scales or an exposed nail on the side of the boat which broke some of the threads and let part or all of the captives of the deep escape into their natural element. And hardly anything is more provoking than to nearly land a score or a hundred of trophies from the deep, and when you are in the full glee of hauling ir the spotted treasures, through some imperfection of the net they splash hack into the wave. That is too much of a trial of patience for most fishermen to endure, and many a man ordinarily correct of speech in such circumstances comes to an in tensity of utterance unjustifiable. Therefore no good fisherman considers the time wasted that is spent in mend ing his net. Now, the Bible again and again represents Christian workers as fishers of men, and we are all sweep ing through the sea of humanity some kind of net. Indeed there have been enough nets out and enough fishermen busy to have landed the whole human race In the.kingdom of God long be fore this. What is the matter? The gospel Is all right, and It has been n good time for catching souls for thou sands of years. Why then the failures? The trouble is with the nets, and most of them need to be mended. I propose to show you what Is the matter with most of the nets and how to mend them. lu the text old Zebedee and his two boys, James and John, were doing a good tiling when they sat iu the boat mending their nets. Fnalt of the Net*. The trouble with many of our nets Is that the meshes are too large. If a fish can get his gills and half his body through the network, he tears and rends and works his way out, and leaves the place through which he squirmed a tangle of broken threads. In our desire to make everything so easy we relax, we loosen, we widen. We let men after they are once in the gospel net escape Into the world, and go Into Indulgences and swim all around Galilee, from north side to south side, and from east side to west side, expecting that they will come back again. We ought to make It easy for them to got Into the kingdom of God, and, ns far as we can, make it impossible for them to get out. The poor advice nowadays to many is: "Go and do just as you did before you were captured for God and heaven. The net was not intended to be any re straint or any hindrance. What you did before you were a Christian do now. Go to all styles of amusement, read all the styles of books, engage in all the styles of behavior as before you were converted.” And so, through these meshes of permission nud laxity they wriggle out, through this opening and that opening, tearing the net ns they go, and soon all the souls that we expected to land In heaven before we know It are back in the deep sea of the world. Oh. when we go u-gospel fish ing, let us make It as easy ns possible for souls to get iu and ns bard as pos sible to get out. Is the Bilile language an unmeaning verbiage when It talks about self de nial, and keeping the body under, and about walking the narrow way, and entering the strait gate and about car rying the cross? is there to be no way of telling whether a man is a Chris tian except by ids taking the com munion chalice on sacrumeutal day? May a man be as reckless about Ids thoughts, about his words, about bis temper, nJioiit bis amusements, after conversion as before? Alas, the words of Christ are so little heeded when he said, "Whosoever doth not benr Ids cross nud come after me cannot be my disciple.” The church is fast becoming as bad ns the world, and when It gets as had as the world It will be worst than the world by so much, as It will add hypocrisy of a most appalling kind to Its other defects.

It is u sad sight to see fish enneu fighting about set room, and pull ing lu opposite directions each to get tils net, both nets damaged by the struggle and losing all the fish. In this land, where there are more than 70,- 000,Of*) people, there are at least 30,- 000,000 not in the Sunday schools and rhurches. In such an Atlantic ocean of opportunity there Is room for all the nets nud nil tie* boats and nil the fishermen and for millions more. There should It ihi rivalry between churches. Each one does a work peculiar to It- self. But there are cities iu tills coun try where there is now going op an ft a awful ripping and rending and tearing of fishing nets. Indeed all over Chris tendom at this time there is a great war going on between fishermen, min isters against ministers. Now, I have noticed a man cannot fish and tight at the same time. He either neglects ids net or.his musket. It h amazing how much time some of the fishermen have to look after other fishermen. It is more than I can do to take care of my own net You see the wind Is just right, and ii Is such u good time for fishing, and the fish are coming iu so rapidly that I have to keep my eye and hand busy. There are about 200,000,000 souls wanting to get into the kingdom of God, and it will require all the nets and all the fisher men of Christendom to safely land them. Oh, brethren of the ministry, let us spend our time iu fishing instead of fighting. But if I angrily jerk my net across your net, and you jerk your net angrily across mine, we will soon have two broken nets and no fish. The French revolution nearly destroyed the French fisheries, and ecclesiastical war is the worst thing possible while haul ing souls into the kingdom. My friends, I notice in the text that James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, were busy not mending somebody else’s nets, but mending their own nets, and I rather think that we who are engaged iu Christian work in tills opening cen tury will require all our spare time to mend our own nets. God help us In the important duty! Nerd of Common Sense. In this work of repair we need to put into the nets more threads of common sense. When we can present religion as a great practicality, we will catch a hundred souls where now we catch one. Present religion as an intellectu ality, and we will fail. Out iu the fish eries there are set across the waters what are called gill nets, and the fish put theH heads through the meshes and then cannot withdraw them, because they are caught by the gills. But gill nets cannot be of any service in reli gious work. Men are never caught for the truth by their heads; it is by the heart or not at all. No argument ever saved a man, and no keen analysis ever brought a man Into the kingdom of God. Heart work, not head work. Away with your gill nets! Sympathy, helpfulness, consolation, love, are the names of some of the threads that we need to weave in our gospel nets when we are mending them. Do you know that the world’s heart Is bursting with trouble, and if you could make that world believe that the icligiou of Jesus Christ is a soothing omnipotence the whole world would surrender tomorrow—yea, would sur render this hour. The day before James A. Garfield was inaugurated as president I was iu the cars goiug from Kichmond to Washington. A gentle man seated near to me lu the cars knew’ me, and we were soon in famil iar conversation. It was just after a bereavement, and 1 was speaking to him from an overburdened heart about the sorrow I was suffering. Looking at his cheerful face, I said: “I guess you have escaped all trouble. I should judge from your countenance that you have come through free from all mis fortune.” Then be looked at me with a look 1 shall never forget and whis pered In my ear: “Sir, you know noth ing about trouble. My wife has been lu an insane asylum for 13 years.” And then he turned and looked out of the window aud into the night with a si lence I was too overpowered to break That was another Illustration of the fact that no one escapes trouble. Why, that man seated next to you In church has on his soul a weight compared with which a mountain Is a feather. That woman seated next to you in church has a grief the recital of which would make your body, mind and soul shud der. The Silken Thread. When you are mending your net for this wide, deep sea of humanity, take out that wire thread of criticism aud that horsehair thread of harshness and put in a soft silken thread of Christian sympathy. Yea, when you are mend ing your nets tear out those old threads of gruffness and weave In a few threads of politeness aud genial ity. In the house of God let all Chris tian faces beam with a look that means welcome. Say “Good morning” to the stranger as he enters your pew, and at the close shake hands with him aud say, "How did you like the music?” Why, you would he to that a man a panel of the door of heaven; you would be to him a note of the doxology that seraphs sing when a new soul enters heaven. I have lu other days entered a pew in church and the woman at the other end of the pew looked at me as much as to say; "How dare you? This is my pew and I pay the rent for it!” Well, I crouched in the other corner aud made myself as small as possible and felt as though I had been stealing something. So there are people who have a sharp edge to their religion, and they act as though they thought most people had been elected to be damned ami they were glad of It. Oh, let us brighten up our manner and appear In gentlemanliness or ladyhood. The object In fly fishing is to throw the liy far out, and then let It drop gently down and keep It gently rising and fulling with the waters, and not plunge it like a man-of-war’s anchor, and abruptness and harshness of ihan- ncr must he avoided in our attempt at usefulness. I know a man lu New York who Is more sunshiny and genial when he has dyspepsia than when he is not suffering from that depressing trouble. I have found out his secret. When ho starts out iu the morning with such depression, he asks for si**- clal grace to keep from snapping up anybody that day, and puts forth addi tional determination to be kindly and genial, and by the help of God ho ac complishes It. Many of our nets need to bo mended lu these respects, the black threads and the rough threads Liken out, nud the bright threads aud the golden threads i f Christian genial ity woven iu. In addition to this wo need to mend our nets with more threads of patience. It Is no rare thing for n fisherman to spend one whole day before he can take a St. Lawrence pike, or an Ohio salmon, or a Long Island pickerel, or a Cayuga black liass, or a Delaware cat fish, and he does that day after day without particular discouragement. But what n lack of patience If wo do not Immediately succeed In soul catch ing. We are apt to give It up and say, "I will never try again." Into all our nets we need to weave all along the edge and all through the center great, long stout threads of Christian patience. How patient God has been with us! Can we not be patient with our fellows? Tbrends of Pnltta. Again, in mending our nets we need also to put in the threads of faith and tear out all the tangled meshes of unbelief. Our work is successful ac cording to our faitb. The man who believes in only half a Bible, or the Bible iu spots; the man who thinks he cannot persuade others; the man who halts, doubting about this and doubting about that, will be a failure In Christian work. Show me the man who rather thinks that the garden of Eden may have been an allegory, aud Is not quite certain but that there may be another chance after death, and does not know whether or not the Bible is Inspired, and I tell you that man for soul saving is a poor stick. Faith lu God aud Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost and the absolute neces sity of a regenerated heart in order to see God In peace is one thread yon must have In your mending net or you will never be a successful fisher for men. Why, how can you doubt? The rottenest threrid to tear out of your net is unbelief, and the most important thread that you are to put in it is faith. Faith In God, triumphant faith, everlasting faith. Oh, this Important work of mending our nets! If we could get our nets right, we would accomplish more in soul saving lu the next year than we have in the last 20 years. But where shall we get them mended? Just where old Zebedee aud his two boys mended their nets—where you are. James and John had no time to go ashore. They were not fishing for fun, as you aud I do iu summer time. It was their live lihood and that of their families. They mended their nets where they were—in the ship. “Oh,” says some one, “I mean to get my net mended, and I will go down to the public library, and I will see what the scientists say about evo lution and about the ‘survival of the fittest,’ and I will read up what the theologians say about ‘advanced thought.’ I will leave the ship awhile, aud I will go ashore and stay there till my net is mended.” Do that, my broth er, and you will have no net left. In stead of their helping you mend your net they will steal the pieces that re main. Better stay lu the gospel boat, where you have all the means for mending your net. What are they, do you ask. 1 answer all you need you have where you are—namely, a Bible and a place to pray. The more you study evolution nud adopt what is call ed advanced thought the more useless you will be. Stay in the ship and mend your net. That is where Janies, the son of Zebedee, aud John, bis broth er, staid. That is where all who get their nets mended stay. Avoid Denominational Strife. I notice that all who leave the gospel boat aud go ashore to mend their nets stay there, or, If they try again to fish, they do not catch anything. Get out of the gospel boat aud go up Into the world to get your net mended, aud you will live to see the day when you will feel like the man who, having forsaken Christianity, sighed, “I would give a thousand pounds to feel ns I did in 1820.” The time will come when you would be willing to give a thousand pounds to feel as you did in IDOL These men who have given up their re ligion cannot help you a bit. These dear brethren of all denomina tions, afflicted with theological fidgets, had better go to mending nets instead of breaking them. Before they break up the old religious let them go through some great sacrifice for God that will prove them worthy of such a work, taking the advice of Talleyrand to a man who wanted to upset the religion of Jesus Christ aud start a new’ one, when he said, "Go and be crucified aud then raise yourself from the grave the third day!” Those who propose to mend their nets by secular aud skep tical books are like a man who has just one week for fishing and six ot the days he spends In reading Isaak Walton’s “Complete Angler,” and Wheatley's “Uod and Line,” and Scott’s “Fishing In Northern Waters,” and Pullman's "Vade Mecum of Fly Fish ing For Trout,” aud then on Satur day morning, bis last day out, goes to the river to ply his art; hut that day the fish will not bite, and late on Sat urday night he goes to his home with empty basket. Alas! alas! If, when the Saturday night of our life drops on us, It shall be found that we have spent our time in the libraries of worldly philosophy trying to mend our nets, and we have only a few souls to report as brought to God through our Instru mentality, while some bumble gospel fisherman, his library made up of a Bible and an almanac, shall come home laden with the results, his trophies nil the souls within 15 miles of his log cabin meeting house. The Flahera Crowned. In the time of great disturbance In Naples In 10411, Massanlello, a bare footed fishing boy, dropped his fishing rod, and by strange magnetism took command of that city of 000,000 souls. He took of his fishing jacket and put on a robe of gold in the presence of howling mobs. He put his hand on his lip as a signal and they were silent. He waved his hand away from him aud they retired to their ^omes. Ar mies passed in review hefotv him. He became the nation's Idol. The rapid rise ami complete supremacy of that young fisherman, Massanlello, have do parallel lu all history. But something equal to that and better than that Is an everyday occurrence iu heaven. God takes some of those who in tills world were Ushers of men and who tolled very humbly, hut because of the way they mended their nets nud employed their nets after they were mended, he suddenly hoists them and robes them and scepters them and crowns them and makes them rulers over many cities, and he marches armies of saved ones before them lu review—Massa- nlellos unhouored on earth but radiated In heaven. The fisher hoy of Naples soon lost his power, but those people of God who have kept their nets mend ed and rightly swung them shall never lose their exalted place, lint shall reign forever and ever and ever. Keep that reward In sight. But do not spend your time fishing with hook aud line. Why did not James, tho son of Zehislee, sit on the wharf at Cana, his feet hanging over the lake, and with a long pole and a worm on the hook dipped Into the wave wait for some mullet to swim up nud be caught? Why did not Zebedee spend his after noon trying to catch one eel? No, that work was too slow. These men were not mending a hook aud line; they were mending their nets. So let the church of God not be content with hav ing here one soul and next month an other soul brought into the kingdom. Sweep all the seas with nets, scoop nets, seine nets, drag nets, all encom passing nets, and take the treasures in by hundreds and thousands and mil lions, and nations will be born iu u day aud the hemispheres quake with the tread of a ransoming God. Do you know what will be the two most tre mendous hours in our heavenly exist ence? Among the quadrillions of ages which shall roll on what two occasions will be to us the greatest? The day of our arrival there will be to us one of the two greatest. The second greatest, I think, will be the day when we shall have put in parallel lines before us what Christ did for us aud what we did for Christ, the one so great, the other so little. That will be the only embarrassment iu Leaven. My Lord and my God, what will we do and what will we say when on one side are placed the Saviour’s great sacrifices for us, aud our small sacrifices for him —his exile, bis humiliation, his agonies on one hand and our poor, weak, insuffi cient sacrifices on the other? To make the contrast less overwhelming let us quickly mend our nets, and, like the Galilean fishermen, may we he divine ly helped to cast them on the right side of the ship.
