M. Littlejohn, President J. En JcrrEHiM, (fee. and Treas. Chicago, April 27.—In this sermon Dr. Frank De Witt Talmajje shows that mutual helpfulness is a duty of oar common humanity and especially a duty incumbent upon Christian people; text, Galatians vi. 2, “Bear ye one an other's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.” I’au! was the noblest Christian mar tyr who ever lived. He could well quote himself ns an example for all his contemporaries. From the very moment when his blind* d eyes were opened by the good Ananias on the Damascus street called “Straight” he never ceased to sacritiee himself for his fellow men. But so important is Hit* lesson of vicarious burden bearing Paul would not have his friends look to any human guide. He seems to come to the members of the Galatian church in the same way that a staff officer of the commander of a great army deliv ers his orders to a captain, a major, a colonel or brigadier general, and they are orders of beneficent import, as were those that the representatives of Gen eral Grant delivered when they rode through the Federal lines telling Sheri dan and Meade and Humphreys and Ord and Warren and Wright and Hart- ranft to cease firing because the two national leaders. Grant and Lee, were meeting under a flag of truce at Appo mattox. A Law For the Common Good. Paul seems to say, “The duty of bear- lug one another's burdens is not my own command, nor is it given to us by the command of Peter or John or Ajk)!- los. hut by the command of the great Divine Chieftain himself.” Read the words as they were written to the rug ged mountaineers who constituted the Galatian church. Hear ye the command as it is spoken for us to hear. “Bear ye one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.” The law of Christ is the law with which every Christian should be in harmony. It is the law which ought to inspire us all. Like all Christ’s laws, it is reasonable and is devised for the common good. > John B. Gough was able to picture the misery of the inebriate in the black est and the reddest colors because In* himself had writhed in the lowest depths of a living inferno. He had drunk the cup of horrors to the bitter dregs, lie signed the pledge and broke it again and again. One day, weak and helpless with delirium, he stood in tin* foundry working upon a pieee of iron. Suddenly that bar of iron began to twist and move in bis hand like a writhing serpent. In horror Hie delir ious man dropped it, and as it lay there he seemed to see it writhing and twisting upon the floor of the foundry. John 11. Gough's crazed brain knew it was ouly a bar of iron, and yet there he saw it a living, hideous, hissing snake. His courage broke down. He thought it was useless to struggle lon ger. Just theu a Christian gentleman who had the spirit of a true burden bearer came in and said: “Hello. Gough! I saw you up at the temper ance meeting last week. I saw you sign the pledge. We have missed you for four days. I thought I would come around and find out how you are get ting along. God bless you. Keep up the struggle. Christ will help you through." Those few words saved John B. Gough for time and eternity. He never touched a drop of fatal intoxicant after that Those words were the helping hand that drew him out of the ruts and pushed him over the up grade. Those few words made John B. Gough a free man—free for time, free for eternity. Encoaraice the HopeleM. To bear one another's burdens will often inspire a hopeless, helpless, pur poseless sinner to put forth his owu energies until after awhile be gathers strength enough to help himself. Have you ever seen a team of horses hitched to a heavy laden wagon that is stuck in the ruts? The horses struggle and pull until they become absolutely helpless and can pull no more. Then have you ever seen a cou ple of men come with some long, stout bars? They place those bars under neath the* 1 axle and begin to heave. The wagon moves. Then after the ruts have been passed have you ever seen the team of horses, which were help less when the wheels were stuck In the ruts, easily pull the wagon along the broad highway? Have you ever seen a great engine, fastened to the end of a long train, puffing and blowing, with its wheels whirling around and around and yet not moving one inch ahead? That train is stalled upon an up grade. Then have you ever seen another en gine, being fastened to that first en gine. by the addition of its power draw the train up? Then after the up grade has teen passed have you seen that second engine uncoupled, because the j first engine was then able to do all the , work? The great trouble of this world is some men ere too heavily burdened. They have too big a pack upon their Lacks. To use the figure of the wagon or the engine, they are stalled upon the up grade. They are stuck in the mud. When they first came to a stand still. they pulled and tugged and strug. gled. and the more they pulled the more exhausted they became. The re sult was Instead of getting ahead they became discouraged. They Just gav$ up ail hope and lay down to die If you would go to that wearied and stumbling man and he'p him carry the load up the crossing, help him out of the ruts, you would not ouly do good to the extent to which you relieved him of his superincumbent weight but you would stimulate Uini to exert ids own energies until after awhile he. though weakly, would be strengthened and encouraged to take care of him self. Advantages of Combination. This is an age for the specialization of talents. Instead of one man making a shoo, as in olden times a single cob bler did, it now takes fifty men to make the same sboe. instead of one woman spinning her own thread and weaving her own cotton and sewing her own garments each woman con centrates her power of mind upon one distinct part of an industry. Civiliza tion lias developed its cotton mills, its cutters. Us sewers, its fitters and its importers and exporters, and the com bination tends to the general advan tage. We buy where we can buy the cheapest, and we sell where we can sci! the dearest. All these results come from the specialization of talent. Tin; realization must come that some men can do things better than we. We in turn in another line of business ought to do some things better than those who arc not proficient in cur trades. A good gunsmith does not always make a crack marksman. An ojnert yacht builder cannot always lie turned into a trustworthy sea captain. The intelligent traveler gathers infor mation wherever he goes. When talking with a motorman upon the street car, with the farmer in the field, with the mechanic at his bench, with the sailor upon the ship's deck, with the engineer in ids cab. he can obtain answers to questions which he himself could never solve. lie can always find a man who knows more, in at least some special field, than he himself knows, no matter how intelligent the questioner might he. The •servant in the kitchen in all probability knows bow to bake bread better than her master, even though the head of the house may be the chief owner of the great Pillsbury Hour mills, where thousands and tens of thou sands of bushels of grain are daily turned into the white substance* which forms the staple of every meal. The skill of the eminent surgeon is never lessened by seeing a carpenter handle a saw, and there never comes a time when the man of ten talents can afford to despise* the lessons he may learn ironi the man of one talent. Tin* Slront; Miin’x Duty. Proficiency being granted to us In mcut.'.l or manual abilities, there is also proficiency given to us in spiritual abilities. Certain temptations which assail e:ie sinner do not appeal to an other sinner. One man may have a lurking propensity for gambling, an other for drink, another for licentious ness. another for sloth, another for pro funity. another for theft, still anoth- c*d for perjury. Some men are born liars. Parents testify that certain chil dren in one family have a tendency to falsehood from their cradles; other children born in the same family never show a disposition to prevaricate. Par ents can often trace the life’s weak nesses of their children almost from tin* time those children began to walk and talk. They can distinguish certain satanic characteristics as distinctly as a stranger can tell whether a child by the color of the skin is born from white or black parents. Of course it is often a great deal harder to tell wheth er the white child has a black heart or a black skinned child has a white heart than to tell the color of the outside epidermal covering. As nearly every man is stronger in a spiritual sense in some one way than his neighbor, it ought to be that strong man's duty to use his strength to com-' pensate for the weakness of his neigh bor. Bear and forbear is the teaching of the Bible. This is the reason Christ sent forth his messengers two by two. This is tlie reason we find impulsive Peter often walking by tbe side of the well poised John; the gentle Mary liv ing in the same house with her sister, who lost her temper in the kitchen, spiritualized by her own sweetness of soul that entire household. This is the way in which we can double our loved ones’ spiritual usefulness and dimmish their temptations to sin. “Bear ye one another’s burdens” has a wider and deeper significance than most of us have ever realized. Llitliten Life’s Bardens. In helping a brother bear his burdens we make the back stronger by which we can hear our own. A few years ago a dear friend of mine was threatened with the loss of one of his eyes. He be came very much depressed. The sur geons said the eye must be cut out. For some time lie stayed at home and brood ed over Ids nearing misfortune. He was rebellious against God and would not be comforted. But one day he started down Broadway. Ahead of him he saw an old blind colored woman standing upon the street corner waiting to pass over. She dare not without help. This old colored woman had a long stick in her hand by which she would find her way along. Upon her nrui she carried a market basket The gentleman went up and accosted her with the words. “Well, auntie, can 1 help you over the street?” The colored woman’s face was wreathed in smiles as she answered, “Thank you. ninssu; thank you, sulii” On the way across the street the color ed woman said; “Mnssa, some people say I am old and blind nnd no account to any one. But, mnssa. life is very sweet to me. 1 find the goodness of God everywhere. He has taken away my two eyes, but the people are always kinder to me than to any one else-1 am blind. And then, sir, 1 hare still my hearing. My children love me, and I can never cease to praise God for the mercies with which he has surrounded my life.” My friend stopped his brood ing then and there. “Surely,” said be, “if God can make a poor old blind col ored woman happy, he docs love and care for me.” When a man tries to help carry his brothers’ burdens, he find* that bis own become lighter to bear. Members of a Christian church are In the sight of God one spiritual fam ily and therefore have a right to ex pect help one from another. Every ship wrecked mariner has a claim upon ev ery stout keel floating the wide sens. The religion of the Lord Jesus Christ cannot be hemmed in by the four walls of a religious edifice. The parable of the good Samaritan teaches that we should love our neighbor as ourselves. Our neighbor is not alone the friend who lives next door. He is also the stranger of foreign birth who has fall en among the thieves on the road to Jericho. Any traveler who is naked, nhungered. athirst, any wayfarer who is lost upon the mountains far away from home, whose guide we can be, is our neighbor. We as Christians have a duty to foreign missions as well as to home missions, to the savage living in the jungles of Africa as well as to the heathen in the back alley half a block away from our kitchen door, to the waif of the street who has fallen asleep upon our doorstep. Direct the Feet of the Wanderer. But the words of the text have still another application. Pan! was ad dressing the members of the Christian churches. Those churches were situ ated in Galatia. The members—sturdy, warm hearted, but hot headed moun taineers—had internal dissensions. In the course of his letter he lays down the broad statement that each member must bear with the faults and frailties of other members. They should especially do this because they were brethren nnd members of a church family of which Go I was the Father and Jesus Christ the eider brother. The bond of a belief in a common Saviour certainly ought to help the monbers of a church family to bear with each other’s weaknesses. Worldly societies help their unfortu nate members. I am told that the Ma sons not only bury their dead; they care for living Masons who need help. They have certain signs and hand clasps. During the bitterness of the Ameri can civil war the Masons in gray re membered that they were the brothers of the Masons in blue. Many a life was saved on aeeount of tin ir Masonic oaths. A Mason in good and regular standing can find friends in any city of Europe to which he may journey- friends who will not only greet him \Ath a smile, but friends. Masonic friends, who will do all they can to h* Ip him in ids travels Many other oniers pledge their members to the same brotherly regard for one another We have respect, too. for national ties. A u mber in foreign lands always speaks to and greets a fellow country- man. The further away from home the warmer is his salutation. We have family ties. When brother or sister gees wrong, if we are sincere in our affections we try in every way to bring t!a* wanderer home to our earthly fa ther's house. A LcsMon For Cliri«tiatin. As I grow older l am the more disposed to judge the spiritual condi tion of a truly religious church ni**!:i- her by tbe way he treats those who have gone astray. He is more apt to condemn himself than he is to accuse Ids unfortunate brother. When a Sun day school pupil goes astray, the truly good Sunday school teacher says: “Ah. that is too bad! I wonder if I did my full duty? Perhaps, if I only had call ed on the lad and invited him to my home and had seen where he spent his evenings, this awful sin would not have happened. I must not be too hard upon the lad. Yes. 1, too. am to blame.” When a minister goes astray, the truly good elder does not upbraid him. Ah, no! He knows too much about the weakness of human nature to do that. The old member of session will sit .by the fire, with tears streaming down his furrowed cheeks, reproaching him self when lie says: “Here I have been a professed follower of the Lord for forty years. I ought to have looked after the young man: I ought to have been his guide ami protector.” When Peter played the coward and denied his connection with Christ, the Saviour did not call a meeting of the apostles for a heresy trial and make Peter de mit the ministry. By his treatment of Peter’s sinful act Christ taught the lesson of forgiveness nnd mercy for the penitent wrongdoer. He reordained Peter to go forth and feed his lambs. “Bear ye one another's burdens and so fulfill tbe law of Christ" is especial ly an appropriate lesson for Christians to learn who take no interest in the welfare of fellow Christians who are the members of the household of faith. It Isn't the thing you do. friend. It’s the thing you leave undone Which gives you a bit of heartache At the setting of the sun. The tender word forgotten. The letter you didn't write. The flower you might have sent, friend. Are your haunting ghosts at night. Accept the Lord's Promise. But my text clearly means also that every one should try in ‘manful, wo manly, Christian fashion to bear liis own burdens. We are very apt to think that our own troubles are heavier to bear than any other person's troubles. But if we were allowed, as in the old legend, to go to the plain of affliction and deposit there our owu sorrows, and were compelled instead to take up the sorrows of some one else, in all probability we would carry away from the mountain of difficulty the bur den pack which our backs have been accustomed to carry. Now. we cannot help opr brother to bear his burdens by trying to pile upon bis stalwart shoul ders our own burdens in addition. No man ever becomes a healthy man. mentally or spiritually, who is a men dicant by choice, crawling from door to door, begging and whining. Yet there are some burdens that are nbso lately impossible for us to bear In our own strength. Route of us have hud so much trouble—such ait awful, awful lot of trouble! We have suffered lignin and again. We have bad to go to the tamny plot, as t went two weexs ago, and to leave there a loved one. The grave did look so big, and the .black hole was dug so deep. But there is a way we can nil carry our own burdens. That way is to cast them upon the Lord, and be will sustain us. He has promised, anil he will ‘do it. If we will ouly cast our bnrdt'ns upon him. our own hands will be free. Thin we can go forth like athletes stripped for the fray. We can go forth to help our brothers and sisters, our ^ureiits and children and ail our friends, carry their burdens. Help One Another. Lot us return to the good old coun try times when every one helped every other person in the community. In these good old times every cue was ready to halve a friend’s sorrows as well as double a friend's joys. When the wed ding bells began to ring, the young girls, the friends of the bride, used to come from the village and decorate the ehureb altar with the wild flowers which they had picked. Friends would sew the wedding garments: friends would serve the wedding cake; friends would help the young people furnish, the new home; friends would bear the burdens, the happy burdens of jqy. Then, when trouble came, the same friends would come in and help the invalid; they would pour out the medicine; they would close the eye lids in the last sleep; they would sit up all night long with the dead; they would sew* the shroud and carry the casket and dig the grave. The same friends would throw into the grave the sods which would fall upon th > coffin lid. The same friends would raise the headstone. Friends, the same friends who once plucked the orange blossoms, would plant the cypress. Let us be to each other friends of that kind. Together let us help one another over whatever difficulties may beset. We have a share to bear, and ns we bear it we fulfill the law of the gospel, which, in the language of my text. says. “Bear ye one another's bur dens and so fulfill the law of Christ.” '1 here lies the merit, in bearing not merely our own. but another’s: in lift irg up from the bowed and stooping shoulders the heavy load under which the Itearer is ready to sink. Bench out >our strong hand of helpfulness and with a stout heart give a mighty heave, and the added burden will seem light in your grasp. Do it. and the sunshine of heaven will irradiate many a dark em*d home. Do it. and countless mul titudes will be led into the kingdom. Do it. nnd tin* angels will rejoice; the celestial portals will open to your vi- si'»n. and the Saviour’s smile will eu courage the work that sliali hasten tin 1 millennium and usher in more speedily tbe day of his coming.
