Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 22.—In this
sermon the preacher presses home the
great “question of the ages” and marks
the distinction between real and nomi
nal Christians. The text Is Matthew
xxvil, 22, “What shall I do then with
Jesus who Is called Christ?’’
The small, unpretentious house in
which Abraham Lincoln died Is for the
tourist one of the most Interesting
places In all Washington. The same
fascination widen draws the sightseer
to the tomb of Mount Vernon hovers
about the little room In which the first
martyr president of the United States
breathed his last. There are many
Lincoln memorials gathered within the
modest house Just across the street
f.%>m Ford’s theater. One of the most
interesting is a pile of papers which
contain the “Lincoln sermons” which
were preached by some 3,000 different
ministers in the United States on the
Sunday after Lincoln was shot. But If
I could take you today Into a room and
show you all the sermons preached up
on the death of Abraham Lincoln I
could say with truth they are as noth
ing in number compared to the ser
mons which have been preached upon
the trial and death of Jesus Christ.
That event has inspired not only
preachers, but artists. Time and again
have those pathetic events been depict-
ed on the canvas. Probably no artist
has succeeded in catching the spirit of
the scenes so completely as the Hunga
rian painter Munkacsy. His two pic
tures, “Christ Before Pilate” and
"Cl st on Calvary,” have made the
whole civilized world bow lu awe be
fore the sufferings and the death of our
Master and King.
Most of our older people have seen
the original painting called “Christ Be
fore Pilate.” It was carried from city
Mu city in the United States and placed
on exhibition. You recollect how the
people entered the room with silent
step. You remember how for hours
some of us studied those wonderful
typical faces. There were the long
beards and the prominent Hebrew fea
tures; there were the Pharisees, with
their supercilious and condemnatory
glances; there were the strange looks
of others in a quandary, as much as
to say, “What manner of mau is this?”
There is Christ, oh, so silent and still!
You can hear the sneering voices of
the multitudes all about him, yet the
defendant himself is saying nothing.
And above all others Is the great cen
tral figure of that picture, Pilate him
self. It is not here a picture of Pilate
before the “judgment seat of Christ.”
but of Christ before Pilate. What Is
he to do with this Christ? Here are
Christ’s enemies demanding his execu
tion. Here are justice and right plead
ing for Christ’s vindication. When the
people commenced to cry, “Barabbas,

seen some of the blind men whose eyes
Christ had opened, and the deaf men
whose ears Christ had unstopped, and
the lame men whose crooked limbs
Christ had straightened, and those like
Lazarus and the boy who was “the
only son of his mother and she a wid
ow” whose dead bodies Christ had
resurrected. These living witnesses
were lu Palestine at the time of Pilate,
the same as those who have been mirac
ulously healed of their disease of sin
are in the world today. The Christ who
performed his wonders 1900 years ago
is the same Christ who is performing
his wonders now.
How Christ Chan area Men.
Christ has been able to change the
lives of men before our own eyes. We
have often seen the transformation.
The painter Rigo some years ago went
to the northern part of Africa to paint
pictures of the natives. He had for his
first model a Nubian warrior Just ar
rived in Cairo. No sooner did the nude
native see his head and chest being re
produced upon the canvas than he
turned and In wild terror fled. He
declared the white man had stolen
away his head and half of bis body and
stuck them upon a fence to dry. Great
was the wonderment of the dusky Af
rican at the power of the European
artist’s brush. But our wonder In ref
erence to Christ Is even greater than
that of the Nubian at the powers of a
Rigo. We have seen Christ absolutely
change men. Before our very eyes he
has changed their natures, changed
their countenances and changed the
whole trend of their lives. He has
been working his miracles before us
as be worked his miracles In Pilate’s
time.
We have the authenticated historical
facts of Christ’s birth. Like Pilate, we
have seen with our eyes the miracles
which Christ has wrought, and, like
Pilate, we have had our own evidence
of Jesus substantiated and re-enforced
by the testimony of those that we leve.
Our Christian mothers’ testimony, our
Christian fathers and wives and So the father cried out to the child:

must obey him even as the Franciscan
monks obey their leaders. We must not
yield Christ oue-third or one-balf or
nine-tenths of our wills, but we must
surrender unto him complete and abso
lute obedience.
We must acknowledge Christ as king
of the entire will. We have more rea
son to do so than bad Pilate, though
he conceded more than some of us are
doing. In the first place, he yielded
his will to Christ enough for a little
while to defy the Hebrew mob. Then,
lu the next place, he tried to save
Christ by a subterfuge. He placed
alongside of Jesus one of the worst
criminals of the east, and then he said:
"According to the law, I must pardou
one of these criminals. Which shall It
be?" He did this with the hope that
the people would let him pardon Christ.
Then when all means failed he took a
basin of water and washed his hands
before the people as he said: "I am in
nocent of the blood of this Just per
son. See ye to it.” Ah, yes, Pilate did
much to save Christ, but he did not do
enough. With one word he could have
said, “Free, free!” and Christ would
have been free. He yielded his will to
the divine will one-eighth, one-fourth,
one-third, one-half, but he did not yield
all. “\^Tiat will you do then with
Jesus who is called Christ?” In every
department of life will you give to him
complete obedience?
His Father.
Would that Pilate could have real
ized that In full submission to Christ
he would have found his own safety!
I recall the story of the little child of
a switchman on one of the German
railroads. The fast mail was rushing
down the track. The switchman at
his post moved the switch to give It a
clear track. Suddenly, to the father’s
horror, the man saw his little boy run
my . uy heart and
life to neiieve bis own
wife 'v > accepted Christ?
Why, she was already almost per
suaded. Furthermore, do you not be
lieve that if you should give your heart
to Christ today Your actions would be
the means of making some of your
loved ones surrender their hearts to
Jesus?
Often have we read bow men and
women have rescued their dear ones
from physical dangers. Shall we not
by the help of Christ save our dear
one* from spiritual peril? There is a
beautiful story told that during chlval-
ric times a knight waa captured and
imprisoned in a castle. The wife, who
had been left behind dnrlng the cru
sade, knew not where her husband
was incarcerated. So she took a string
ed instrument, and, dressed as a page,
she wandered from court to court and
from country to country, singing under
the great fortresses the old love songs
with which she had been wooed in her
father's castle. One day, as the fa
miliar notes of the minstrel lifted
themselves to a frowning fortress, there
came back an answering song. Then
the wife knew where her husband-
lover was imprisoned. By means of
her father’s friends she was able to
rescue her dear one. Bo shall it be
with us. If we lift our voices in re
demption songs, we shall hear our
songs echoed back in the redemption
songs of oar loved ones. As Pilate, in
all probability, decided the eternal des
tiny of his wife as well as bis own
when he condemned Christ, so our ac
tions may decide the eternal destinies
of our friends as well as our own.
May we weigh carefully the Impor
tance of the question which I am about
to put. May we weigh it carefully In
reference to our homes, our business
meant the death of hundreds of per
sons. His own boy must be killed
rather than that others should perish.
scene? We are standing in the open
judgment hall of Jerusalem. The
judge’s face Is set and troubled. The
suppressed sigh, the muttered oath, the
growlings and the murmurlngs of the
people are threatening him. What is
Pilate to do? Suddenly a messenger
bearing a letter forces his way through
the crowd. The governor opens the
note and reads. It is written by his
wife. At once the troubled face of the
Roman governor becomes more trou
bled. There is the well known hand
upon the rails. The father dared not . , ^ „ ,
throw the lever back. It would have ! a t ni1 °" r f ? ends a ‘ ,ar S e -
What shall ye do then with Jesus
who Is called Christ?” I am not ask
ing this question, but Jesus himself is
asking It. “What will ye then do with
me?” Answer must be given. Then
Christ shall give to us an answer
which shall affect the eternities. Then,
instead of having “Christ before Pi
late,” we shall have “Pilate before
Christ.” Oh, what shall Jesus then
say unto us? Will he say, “Come, ye
blessed of my Father: Inherit the king
dom prepared for you,” or shall he say,
“Depart from me; depart from me?”
God forbid! God forbid!

What Shall We Do With Chrlatt
What are you going to do with Jesus,
in the first place, as an intellectual
fact? Are you going to shut your eyes
to his very' existence? Are you going
to act as If there never was such a
person as Jesus—that there never
was a being who came into this world
working his miracles and by these
miracles proving that he was the Sou
of God? Are you going to declare
there never was u miraculous concep
tion, that there never was any Easter
resurrection and that there never was
any ascension from Mount Olivet? All
these questions are continually fac
ing us and demanding an answer, the
same as the guilt or the innocence of
a defendant is before the Jury trying a
case or as the guilt or innocence of a
condemned murderer is before Uie gov
ernor or a pardoning board.
In spite of ourselves the facts of
Christ’s life are before us, and we
must accept or reject the evidence. We

impressive significance they confront

mess table was ridiculing the Idea of
the divine birth of Christ, Bir Arthur
Wellesley, who afterward became Na
poleon’s conqueror, turned to him and
said: “Young man, have you ever read
Dr. Paley’s ‘Evidences of Christianity?*
No? Then you had better read It before
you parade such evidence of Ignorance
in reference to Christ’s birth us you are
doing now.” These facts of Christ’s
birth were accessible to Pilate. There
were living in Pilate’s time the people
who had talked to the wise men from
the east. There were sages at that time
alive who had told Herod that Christ
was to be born in Bethlehem of Judaea.
And there were men who were ready
to confess that tills birth of Christ had
fulfilled all the predictions of the proph
ets. Evidences of Christ’s birth are
within reach >f all. We must, like Pi
