FRANK DE WITT TALMASE. D.tV. ! * Paator of Jefferson Park Presby- * terian Church, Chicag-o Chicago, May 17.—In this discoir ’ man, the debtor, is shown in his true relation to his Divine Creditor, to whom he owes not only a full and grateful acknowledgment of immeasur able obligation, but such a loyal and loving surrender of his life and actions to the divine will as shall prove the genuineness of bis professions. The text is Matthew xxil, 21, ‘ Render unto God the things that are God’s.” Many people talk as if this world was full of rogues. I do not believe any such charge. There is more hon esty in the world than it gets credit for. Indeed, it is my belief that most people are honest, that most people want to do right. This is not a world of hypocrites. All men are not scoun drels. When, in 1779, the statement was made in the British parliament that every man had his price and that all men could he bribed, a statesman arose and said: “That charge is not true. Benedict Arnold might become a traitor, but there are many generals in the American army whom all the money in King George’s treasury can not buy.” If you have not found this kind of a world, there is something wrong with your own principles. The man who declares that all men are rogues at heart is practically making confession of his own dishonesty. If you tell me that all men cheat. I con clude that you yourself would cheat if you had the chance. It sometimes takes a thief to catch a thief. If most people were not honest It would he difficult to explain some of the customs of the business world. In many of our cities luuch buffets have been started, where you can go to a large counter and help yourself. You can cat as much as you want. Practi cally no one watches you. The pro prietor loaves it to your own honesty to tell how much you owe. Does not this prove that most people are honest? In the streets of New York, Philadel phia and Chicago stands are placed. Upon these stands are piled the morn ing newspapers. You walk up to a stand and take the paper you wish. You leave your money upon the stand and go off. Often no one watches you. Would the news dealer thus leave his stand if he had not learned by experi ence that most people are honest? In Rome my mother some years ago was examining a piece of jewelry. Before deciding to buy she wished her daughters to see the same. The pro prietor of the establishment immedi ately wrapped up the article and hand ed it to her. He told my mother that she could take it to the hotel and there decide what she wished to do. “But,” answered mother, “is this safe for you to do? You do not know me. Can you trust all your customers like this?” “Yes.” answered the proprietor, “it is safe. I know you are an American lady. No American lady has ever yet deceived us when we trusted her. We will take the risk.” Does not that prove that most people are honest? A BUI Preaented. Taking this premise, then, for grant ed, I shall boldly present to you a bill which I know’ you will try to pay. It is from my Lord and Master. It is a statement of the debt which every man, woman and child, to more or less extent, owes to God. I do not demand payment of it, for it is greater than you could ever pay, though you lived on earth a thousand years and worked as hard as you could; but 5 want you to feel your obligations and to resolve that you will do all that is in your power to show your gratitude to your Heavenly Father for all the mercies an* comforts with which he has sur rounded you during your life. There fore, what you are to do, you must start to do right away, and in order to do it, you must serve Christ from now on with your whole heart. A big hill for good health is charged up against most of us in the divine ledger. We may be growing old now and have here and there a rheumatic twinge; we may be unable to eat as heartily of indigestible foods as we did when young, or to work as rapidly or as long, hut most of us have had years and years of good health. We have had years with two stout lungs and two keen eyes and with good, di gestive organs and good nerves. Now comes the question: What hare we accomplished with this God given bless ing called good health? Have we done anything more with it than to eat and sleep, and, brutelike, physically to en joy ourselves? Hare we placed that good health at the serrlce of the Mas ter, as we know we ought to have done? If you bad been very sick and I should come into the room just after the crisis was past, and say, “Well, Mr. So-and-so, how are you feeling today?” You would answer, “Thank God, I am better; I hope I shall soon be well,” you give by that answer ail the credit of your convalescence and health to God. Can it be that God is not expecting you to do anything for him on account of this blessing? “But,” answers son^e one, “you can not blame the averr ge person for not being more grate nl for bis good health. A healthy man does not think about his health. If that good health was taken away from him it would be different Then the individual would realize what be bad lost. But how can you blame a man for not being grato- fnl for a healthy liver or kidneys or spleen when the mere fact that these organs are healthy proves that he nev er knew be had a liver or spleen or kidneys?” In one sense, my brother, your answer is right. When a man loses I is good health he is ready to give up almost everything he has to win it hack. If ins lungs are diseased ho will sell out his business to go and live in Los Angeles, Cal,, or San An tonio. Tex., or in some mild climate of Arizona. If he lias gallstones he will gladly cross the seas in the hope that the Carlsbad waters may dissolve them. If he has a cancer willingly does he lie down upon the operating table in the hope that the surgeon’s knife may cut out the fatal destroyer. But in another sense, my brother, your answer is wrong. Though most of us may he healthy, yet there was a time when nearly all well persons were sick, and awfully sick. We know what it is to have the temperature run up to 104 and 105 and the pulse, like a trip hammer, boating 130 times to the min ute. We know what it is to have pneu monia or typhoid fever or appendicitis. And from the past experience of those sicknesses we should fully realize the blessing of good health and be willing to pay a great debt of sendee to God for that health. When visiting the Isle of Wight in 1885 we saw the queen’s physician every morning ride up to the royal palace. He did not go there because the queen was ill, but in order to prevent her from becoming sick. If the royal courts of Europe have their attending physicians, who are paid large salaries to keep the rul ers well, shall we not pay in service anything to our Heavenly Physician for the physical strength with which many of us are endowed? Capital of Good Health. “Oh,” said a poor laborer to a mis sionary one day, “I do not owe any debt to God. lie has done nothing for me.” “Nothing for you!” exclaimed the missionary. “Would you he will ing, poor as you are, to take a mil lion dollars cash for your two eyes?” “No,” answered the laborer, “I would not.” “Would you he willing to take a million dollars for your two legs, and all the rest of your earthly days have to he wheeled around as a cripple? Would you he willing for a million dol lars to exchange your good lungs for those of a consumptive?” “No,” said the laborer, “I would not.” “Then,” said the minister, “you owe to God gratitude and service to the amount of at least $3,1)00,000 capital for good health.” We have all followed with intense interest the operation which the fa mous Vienna surgeon, Dr. Lorenz, per formed on the little daughter of a Chicago millionaire. Twice has the great doctor crossed the seas within a few months to visit his little patient. It has been said that for each trip he was paid $30,0u0. “Oh,” you say, “let that Chicago father pay $00,090, pay anything, if he can only have ids crip pled daughter cured.” Then, my broth er, do we not owe God a greater debt than Mr. Armour owes to Dr. Lorenz? Have we no debt to pay because we were horn with two straight legs and have had for years the blessing of good health? A big debt, for food and clothing and house rent, I find charged against us in the divine ledger. A noted French statistician has compiled the following summary of how an average man, fifty years of ago, has spent his past life: He has slept 0,000 days; played 4,000 days; was eating 1,500 days and has betm sick 500 days. During his 1.500 days of feeding, he has eaten a whole car load of bread—17,000 pounds; a whole ear load of meat—16,000 pounds; 4,000 pounds of vegetables, eggs and fish, aud has drunk 7,000 gal lons of liquids. He has worked only 6.500 days out of the 18,250 days which he has lived. In other words, he has sl6pt nearly as long as he has worked. Then when you further estimate all the expense of a man’s clothing and cost of travel during his life, you can to some extent compute the financial value of the food and clothes with which God has endowed one of his children up to the half century mile stone. Friend of Infancy. But though the divine debt for food and raiment may be very great are you going to try to cancel it by merely estimating, dollar for dollar, how much the beefsteaks and the chops and the potatoes and peas and barrels of apples and the garments have cost? Oh, no. That would not be right. You, a strong man, with the earning capacity you now have, owe to God financially more than that. You have a moral debt as well as a financial one. If I should come to you in a business crisis of your life and help you, you would never forget it. If I should say; “Mr. So-and-so, I hear the banks are begin ning to push you. Never mind, I will see you through this crisis. Bring your notes to my office, and I will Indorse them,” what would be the result? Tears would come into your eyes. You would perhaps cry like a little child. You would say to me: “I can never for get your kindness. It means more to me than money. If any trouble ever comes to your home, you can always count upon me as your friend.” Suppose your father and mother died thirty years ago and left you penniless. Suppose at that time I should have gone to a foundlings’ home and found you and brought you into my house and adopted you and reared you as my son, what would be the result? Would you estimate the sacrifices I have made for you by the dollar and cent measure? By how much I spent for your clothes and hoard? Oh, no! You would esti mate It by the extent of my love. You would give back to me more than mon ey. You would feel that all you are and all you have you owe to my pater nal kindness and that I have claims upon you that all your devotion cannot repay. What, then, are your obliga tions to God for all the comforts yon have enjoyed? If you give yourself to him. body, mind nnd iwnl. is that more tlii’ii your duty? We must remember all the days he has cared for us in our infancy. Think how he has guided nnd protected us all through the struggle of life. We must pay installments on that hill by earing for God’s helpless children, by feeding God's hungry nnd clothing God's naked and bending over God’s sick. We can never get away from this re sponsibility. One day a gentleman stood waiting for a friend at the New York entrance of the Brooklyn bridge. While standing there he saw a little street urchin go up to an ash barrel and pick out of the refuse a piece of bread and begin to eat It. The gentle man turned to an old vornnn who was tending an apple stand near by and said, “Have those little hoys nobody to care for them at all?” “No one,” grim ly answered the old woman, “except God, and ho does not always seem to be around.” Yes, as we look at dis tress unrelieved, at lives In which there Is no brightness, it does seem as if God were not always around. But has that thought no message for us? Are not these very cases opportunities placed in our way of repaying some of our obligations to him? We cannot pay him, hut when as his children we relieve the destitute or lift the burden from the weary shoulders we are act ing as his almoners and are doing his work. We should care for others in Christ’s name because God has so long cared for us. Champion of Homan Hlahta. A big hill for church privileges I find charged against us all in the divine ledger. Why all? Because the church of Jesus Christ is not, as some people suppose, a small building dedicated for a few weddings and funerals and a place in which are to be gathered a few Sunday school scholars. It is not, as a great preacher once described it, merely an “ecclesiastical Flying Dutch man,” with a dead minister in the pul pit and dead hearers in the pew and a dead deacon passing the collection plate. The church of Jesus Christ is a great gospelizing, vitalizing, intellec tual i zing and liberty producing institu tion. It is the mightiest protecting power we have today back of the pres ident of the United States. It teaches man to live right as well as to die right. The church of God is the greatest champion of human rights of the pres ent day. Some years ago I sat in Coop er institute at a great mass meeting. Robert G. Ingersoil was one of the speakers. During his address he hurl ed at the audience this stinging sen tence: “The reason I despise the church of God is because it blocks every wheel of progress.” Afterward the chairman of the meeting arose and said: “I ad mire Robert G. Ingersoil. I believe him to he one of the greatest orators who have ever lived. But I defy Mr. Ingersoil to show where the Christian church has blocked the wheels of prog ress. Every great onward movement in American history has had its ablest champions and often its leaders and originators in the men who week by week preach from Christian pulpits.” That chairman was right. The thun derous applause of the audience ap proved it. » The church of God is the great intel- lectualizing force in America. Dr. Charles L. Thompson once declared that “the Presbyterian church was not the church of great cathedrals, but of small colleges.” Wherever the gospel ministers go there you will find the college planters. The schoolhouse al ways stands under the shadow of the church steeple. Where there is no church invariably there is an absence of the schoolhouse. The church is the greatest purifier of the community. It is the great pre venter of crime. I knew of a keen, shrewd business man who lived in a small Ohio city. Every year he sent a largo donation to all the different churches, “not,” said he, “because I am a professing Christian, but because I believe the church does more to emp ty our jails and poorhouses and crimi nal resorts than any other power on earth.” The church of the Lord Jesus Christ is the great cornerstone of a pure home. We do not have to argue here for one moment to try to prove this statement. It is an axiom, a self evident fact Now, my brother, If the church of God makes your clerks more honest and keeps the messengers of crime from off the streets, where they might destroy your sons and daughters; if it is the foundation stone of a strong national government as well as that of the home; if it Is the great enemy of ignorance and the lead er In all movements that look to the purifying and spiritual elevation of the human race, do you not believe that you should cast your influence into its work? Do you not owe it an Inestima ble debt? Should you not try to broad en its teachings and through it try to disseminate the gospel redemption which will save men this side of the grave as well as upon the other side? Spiritnal Education. ▲ big debt for a gospel education I find charged against us all in the di vine ledger. The struggles of poor boys for a college education offer some of the most pathetic of Illustrations. Harry Is a farmer’s boy. He lives in the country and wants to go to school, but how can he? Try as hard as the family may, they can just make ends meet and no more. But get an educa tion he will. He works on the farm during the summer and teaches school during the winter. After awhile, by night study, be fits himself for an academy. His little savings he boards like a miser. He enters the university. Then perhaps he comes up to gradua tion with a hacking cough or ruined eyesight and with his physical health wrecked. Ah, that is pathetic! That is a sacrifice that is being made in ev ery part of the land. But if it is pathetic to see a poor boy struggling for an intellectual edu cation how much more patnmc is it to see one struggling for n spiritual edu cation when he has boon horn in the cradle of sin? When I go down the street and see men and women whose faces from early childhood were scarred nnd marred with sin, I often say to my self, “What chance have those poor mortals?” Their fathers perhaps were Jail birds. Their mothers were disso lute and deserted them perhaps on the day they were born. Their companions from youth have been thieves and rob bers. And yet some of these poor wretches, horn in sin. have struggled up by the grace of God into the light. They have, by slow and painful stages, won a hard earned spiritual education, like “Old Phil.” for many years the doorkeeper of the Jerry McAuley i lis- sion, who was a thief and had sei .ed seventeen years in jail for his crimes. They struggled on and up, battling their way step by step, fighting against all the inherited tendencies of their past lives. They struggled up out of the hovel and the saloon and the gut ter and the poorhouse. Like the de mon possessed Mary, at last they be came the sainted Mary, as spotless and pure ns the driven snow. But, thank God, none of us—no, I believe not one—ever had to go through such a struggle for a spiritual educa tion. We had that in the days of our childhood. We were horn in Christian homes and reared at the knee of Chris tian mothers. Snail we not be willing to pay God hack for this education? Because he has given us that spiritual education free, so that we can discrim inate between right and wrong, shall we not now be willing to pay some thing at least for our past Christian tuition? How can we pay God back for this spiritual education of our childhood? I will tell you. In the same way 1 ex pect my children to pay me hack for their intellectual education. Some years ago I had my life insured on the tontine plan. These premiums at times have been very hard to meet. But when we come up to them I always say to my wife: “This money will come due when I am forty-four years of age. That is just the time we shall want to send our hoys and girls to college. Then, after they have had their educa tion, as well equipped men and women they can go forth to the battle of life ami he intellectually good men and women.” I am going to get my pay back in the good that I hope my chil dren may be able to do. And so God expects his pay for our spiritual educa tion in the moral, pure, consecrated lives we should, by the grace of God, live for his service. Are you and I, my friends, doing what we ought to do? Are we truly living the Christian lives which our early bringing up should Justify? Debt We Owe to God. A big debt we also owe to God for the blessings which come to us from our living loved ones. Strange is the fact that we rarely appreciate a dear one until she is gone. There are plenty of monuments and memorials erected f »r dead men. hut very seldom any for the living. One of the most remarka ble statues in this country is that raised in the Brooklyn Prospect park to James S. T. Stranahan. It was un veiled while the “grand old man of Brooklyn” was alive to see it with his own eyes nnd with his own ears hear the eulogies of his life’s work. We would he willing, if our finances would warrant it, to endow a hospital or li brary or foundling home to the mem ory of a dead child. Do we not owe God any debt of gratitude to the loved ones who are still by our side? Shall not the father nnd husband feel that he needs to make some acknowledgment for the children and the wife who now sit with him at the table and how with him at the family altar? Oh, my Christian friends, I do not believe we are intrinsically mean. I do not and will not lower myself to the belief that we have intentionally gone to God heretofore only as beggars. Most of ns have not stopped to think with how many blessings God has surrounded us. Therefore I have today tried to show you the joys of Christian giving, the Joys of paying back to God at least a little of what we owe. The simple fact Is that but few of us have ever begun to taste the sweet est nectars which come from the gospel vineyards. Many years ago, goes a German legend, a princess was to be wedded to a prince of the far east. He sent to her as a wedding gift an iron egg. The princess, In disgust at such a present from her lover, threw It upon the ground, when, lo, the shell broke and opened, and inclosed therein was a sil ver lining. In great amazement, the princess picked up the egg and found in this silver lining a spring. She touched It, and It opened, and, lo, in side the silver lining was a golden yolk. She touched another spring, nnd, lo, inside the golden yolk glittered a beautiful ruby. So the reason some of us have had so little joy out of our gospel experience Is because we have only touched the outer edge of its joys. We have only selfishly looked at the gifts which God has given to us. But when we honestly try by a consecrated life to pay back God for what he has done for us then we shall have a joy which, like the fabled egg, increases in value as we delve Into It. First, the Iron shell, then the silver lining, then the golden yolk, then the glittering ruby crown. Oh, my brother and sis ter, will you be honest with God? Will you try to repay him by a consecrated life's service for all the mercies with which he has surrounded you? I to day present this bill of debit from my Divine Master and King.
