Sept. 21*.—In this sermon the preacher shows that there nre crises in every life which, like a revelation of the unseen, teach lessons that should never bo ignored or forgot ten. The text Is II Corinthians xli, 3. “I knew such a man (whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell; God knowelh).” A friend of mine was some time ago reading that fascinating book of Fran ces Hodgson Burnett entitled ‘•The One I Knew Best of All,” and for u long time be did not know that the heroine of the book and the author were one. He followed the little girl step by step as she grew up until this fact suddenly dawned upon him. "Why,” he said, "Mrs. Burnett is writing the history of her own life.” The same fnet is true about the auto biographies of Charles Dickens and Thomas Hughes and Lord Byron and 1 homos De Qulncey. When you read “David Copperfleld” you are reading, with an added touch of romance, the autobiography of Charles Dickens. When you read “Tom Brown’s School Days” you are reading Thomas Hughes’ early life at Rugby. When j von read "Childe Harold” you are reading a malformed and distorted his- ' tor;, of the life of Lord Byron. When 1 you read the “Confessions of an Opium | Later” you are reading of the cham ber of horrors in which De Qulncey "ived for many years.

There had been many eritieisms made against the great apostle because, though he had never seen Jesus, he assumed authori ty as a teacher of Christianity. If you examine Paul's writings care fully you will find that he uses the personal pronoun “I” far more than any other Inspired writer in either the New Testament or the Old. His ene mies claimed that he was a blatant, conceited boaster. So In order to dis arm any unjust criticisms he describee one of the most Important experiences of bis life, referring to It in the third person. He said, “I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether In the body I cannot tell or whether out of the t body I cannot tell; God knowetb); such an one caught up to the third heaven.” Then Paul goes on and tells how this man, this third person, who was himself, had the most marvelous manifestation of God’s pow er and love. All the time the Corin thians are reading this account me- thinks we can hear them say; “Do you suppose Paul Is alluding to himself? Do you suppose Paul himself has been in paradise:” Indeed I have often thought that by putting this divine manifestation in the third person Paul made it even more powerful than if he had directly spoken of It as having oc curred to himself. Now, it has always been u debatable question among Bible students what this glorious revelation which came to Paul really was. It was evidently one of the important moments If not the supreme moment of Paul’s life. Why, so overwhelming was It that Paul could not tell whether he was in the tiesh or out of the flesh when his spir ituaJ exaltation occurred. He could not tell whether his spirit was confined in its tenement of clay or whether his soul for a little while left his body and took its Might into the unknown world, as our souls will depart when the breath stops and the pulse ceases to beat and the physician pronounces us dead. Though many commentators may try to tell us what this Pauline revelation was, I am not going to try to explain it. I do not think Paul wanted us to know what it was. Tha Presence of God. S Paul does not say what be saw or heard in /his wonderful vision. As a man admitted to an audience with a king or emperor is expected to main tain a decorous silence about the inter view, so Paul says It was not lawful to utter the words he heard In the third heaven. We can understand that. There are some of our own experi ences about which we shrink from speaking. They are too solemn, too sa cred, for utterance. But what an effect 4hey have had on our lives! It would be useless for an infidel to tell some of us that there is no God; we know there Is. There have been times when he has come so close to us that we have been conscious of bis presence; we have felt him near to us. It Is about these limes, more common than we sometimes think, that I would speak to you this morning. Your first great moment of spiritual ecstasy may have come to you as a reaction from an almost miraculous escape from death in early youth. I do not know what that escape was. Perhaps yon were skating upon the lee on the river and suddenly yon came too near an air hole and In you went. You can feel the horror of that cold plunge now. You felt the swift current gripping you as though it was a fiend whh a million hands and all those hands were trying to drag you under the lee. You remember well holding out your arms to save your self and the Ice breaking as you tried to lift yourself upon Its smooth sur face. Or [HM-haps the miraculous es cape from death came when you as a little boy were down by tbe old saw mill fishing Your mother had forbid den jou to go into a boat. For some time you had been fishing <£i the shore. But the waters out in the middle of the pond did look so in Tiling. The huge logs did look so big. Then, with your bare feet, you began to run across them. Then, when you found just the right place to cast your line, you dropped it. But after the first nibble of a fish those big logs un der your feet began to roll. Then the other logs began to force them In. Then those huge logs were closing over your head when your little companion lay down flat upon his stomach and ex tended to you his fishing pole and pull ed you out just in time. Or perhaps your narrow escape from death came in some awful runaway. You can sec now the horses plunging and taking the hits in their teeth. You can hear the crash as the wagon is shattered against a tree. Or perhaps, like George Washington’s mother, during a thun derstorm you had a friend struck dead before your eyes by the lightning. I do not know what that early escape was, but this I do know—there Is hardly a man, woman or child who has not in youth come so near death as to almost feel the cold air of the tomb fanning the* cheek. Why, you were so near death that Just one step more and you would have been over the precipice or under the revolving wheel of the ear. Now, what was the reac tion of that sudden escape from death in the early days of your youth? The Reaction. At first you began to tremble like an aspen leaf. You did not do this while you were still looking into the yawn ing abyss of the grave. The grave opened and shut so quickly that you did not realize what was happening until all lunger was past. Then the cold sweat began to break out over you; your nerves began to twitch; you began to say: “O God, I never knew- till now how near one could come to death and yet escape it. For - what hast thou saved me?” And all through the succeeding days and nights the Lord Jesus Christ seemed to be stand ing by your side, saying: *T have sav ed you that you might become my dis ciple. God gave you a divine revela tiou at that time, Just as Christ ap peared unto Paul in the scene of my text, when he was taken up Into the third heaven and knew not whether he w’as in the body or out of the body. The next glorious revelation which came to you may have been a few years later, when, under the power of a great gospel revival, you surrendered your life to the Master, joined the church and sat at the table of the holy communion. How that scene comes back now! There is the little white church with its straight backed pews. There is the choir loft In which your sister used to sing. There is the old prayer meeting room below, which was used for the Sunday school before the Sunday morning preaching. There were the gravestones you used to play among on week days and try to read the epitaphs on Sunday, when the min ister would persist in praying about everything, from the creation down to the president of the United States and all others in authority. The Influence of the Holy Spirit. If some one should ask you how that revival started you could not answer. Suddenly, w ithout any apparent cause, the power of the Holy Spirit began to descend. It was visibly felt through all the country. One Sunday the old minister instead of giving out his text, as usual. opem*d the service in words something like these: “Brethren, I have tried to write a sermon this week, hut it has been an impossibility. Every time I entered my study the still, small voice of God kept saying; ‘Down on your knees and pray. Pray for my people. Pray, pray, pray!’ And, my dear people. 1 dare not disobey the voice of God. As 1 have been praying so much for you this week, I thought I would turn this morning’s service Into a simple prayer meeting. Then we will meet in the church during the coming week each night, and we shall pray for each other and for our dear ones.” You rememl>er how your mouth opened wide with astonishment. As the different people arose one after the other to pray, you got tired and com menced to w riggle in your seat. But somehow a strange feeling of unrest came over you when your dear mother arose to pray. You never beard her pray in public liefore iu your life. Bui when she commenced with a trembling voice and said, “O I»rd, dear Master, precious Saviour, come Into our midst and take these little lambs into thy arms,” you could not keep back the tears. You knew she was praying for you. Then that ride home! Tbe old fami- And then you went to your room. As you closed the door you Just dropped down by the Ixsl and began to sob and cry. You kept saying: “O God! O God! O God!” You could not got any know It was a glorious revelation from God. Have you trusted Christ and fol lowed him as you promised to do when a young man on your first night in the great city? If you have not, then tell God today why you have not and ask further. But suddenly you felt an I again for a renewal of his divine man arm about your neck. No one hut she | ifestation. could have touched you like that. But i |j u t time passed fin. You soon got as she said. “O Lord, hear my boy’s ; uge (] to your city life. The green coun prayer!” a wonderful scene took place. , try wavs W ore off.

First Night Away From Homs. Have you ever seen your feelings better portrayed than iu the great pic ture Hovenden painted, called “The Breaking of Home Tics?” I have a fine copy of that picture hanging on my dining room wall. Some people declare the mother's face is the most wonderful part of that picture. Others draw your attention to the dog. oth ers to the youngest sister or to the old grandmother’s eyes. But the most sug gestive part of that picture to me Is the chin of the boy, who is about to leave home. As I stand and look at that chin I can almost see It quiver. It seems to say: “What am I going to do? Away from father and mother and all the dear ones, where shall I sfiend my evenings? Who will take care of me when I am sick? Oh, I wish I did not have to go to that great Soup Stomach No appetite, loss ot strength, nervous ness, headache, constipation, bad breath, general debility, sour risings, and catarrh of me stomach are all due to indigestion.

You looked too dis traught for that, for while I was speaking you could imagine that she had risen from her casket. Then she seemed to soar to the celestial gates. Then from the far off distance you saw your father and your sister come out to greet her. You witnessed the rap ture of their welcome. ' Then you heard your mother say: “Yes, Harry and Sarah have the farm. They are carrying on the work of the old church.” “But,” asked your father and sister, “how about Johnny?” “Oh,” your mother answered, with a heavenly smile, “he has not been liv ing as he ought, but he is all right now!
