CHAPMAN'S SERMON] A SUNDAY DISCOURSE SY THE NOTED PASTOR-E VANCE LIST. t i Subject: A Discouraged Man?Most Tropic j Dissatisfied Because They Dead Too j Artificial a I-ife?>"o Kooin iu the Xinjr- j dorn of God For Tetsiuiisni. TTbe Kpv J. Wilbur Chanman, D. D.. is i now the n?03t distinguished and best known evangelist in the country. He was second onlv to Dr. Talmage, but since the death of that famous preacher Dr. Chapman has the undisputed possession of the Pulpit as the preacher to influence the plain people. His services as an evangelist are in constant demand. His sermons have stirred the hearts of men aud women to a degree unapproached by any latterday divine. J. Wilbur Chapman was boi n in Richmond, Ind., June IT, 1859. His mother died when he was but twelve years of age. and his lather died seven years afterward. Consequently lie was not only deprived of a mother's care at the formative age of boyhood, but he was thrown upon his own resources before he had reached early manhood. He was educated at Oberlin College and Lake Forest University, and graduated for the ministry from the Lane Theological Seminary. Cincinnati, Ohio, in 18S.'. While there he manifested the character and the spirit which have followed him as an evangelist all over the country. They have made his ministry a continual success as pastor and as a revivalist, His sermons arc simple and direct, so that their influence is not bo much due to exciting the emotions as to winning the hearts and convincing the minds of those who hear him. Dr. Chanman is now in charge of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, New York City .J New Yosk City.?The Rev. Dr. J. Yi'ilbur Chapman, America's most famous pastor-evangelist, who took charge of a moribund church in this city several years ago, and is now preaching to an overflowing Congregation, lias furnished the following ?loquent sermon to the press. It was preached from the text: 1 Kings, 19: 4, "But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree, and he requested for bimself that he might die/' The history of Klijah begins with the seventeenth chapter of 1 Kings and starts with the word "and." The preceding chapter tells us of the idolatry or the people of the reign of lawlessness and the apparent triumph of iniquity. It seemed as if the end of all things had come, and I suppose everybody living in that time thought so, but if this was the impression, the fetal mistake had been made because God is left out of all consideration. It is well for us to remember that He is never at a loss. The land may be overrun with > iniquity, His witnesses mav be silenced, *? ? -11 -t-~ x: tj? ;n cut an me uuic x*e is i>iej<iuiuS u ....... ... some quiet village as He prepared Elijah, and at the right time He will send him forth with no uncertain testimony! There v is really no place for pessimism in the kingdom of God. He has never nsade a failure in the past. He never will in the future. "If God be for us, who can be ngainst us." It is literally true that when the enemy comes in like a flood this spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. The story of Elijah is most interesting, nnd we trace him from his sudden appear ance here flashing like a meteor upon the ^ scene of action, down to Cherith. where he is fed by the ravens, over to Zarephat'i, where he relieves the distress of the wemB an who meets him, but the most reniark[?B able scene in his life is on Mt. Ccrmel, where, facing the prophets of Baal, after ^Hg their inability to call down tire from keavitSp *n "^e produces the fire from the very W/f hand of God, which consumed the sacrifice, licks up the water in the trenches and gives him victory of a most remarkable kind. The prophets of Baal are distressed. and the news concerning their defeat is carried to Jezebel. She is intensely angry, and declares that Elijah shall be as her prophets are at a certain hour of the day. Instead of looking up to God and ' triumphing over this wicked woman iuijah does quite the opposite, and thus it is that the text is written to describe his sad fan. -Hew arc the mighty fallen? Tt would he difficult to imagine a man in whose life there was more of real contrast; new he is master in prayer and the pendulum which swings one way toward glory swings in his life in the other direction toward despair. and the prayer for victory becomes a wail of distress; now he is locking up the heavens and holding the key and apparently at his own will the rain tarries or falls, and now utterly dismayed he is rushipg to the wilderness and wishing that he might die. but Elijah is not alone in this desire. The most of men have at one time or another wished that they might end all. Jdoses did, "And if Thou deal thus with me, kill me.l pray Thee, out of hand, if 1 have found favor in Thy sight, and let me not see my wretchedness. Aumoers 11: 15. .So also did Jonah, ' Therefore now, 0 Lord, take, 1 beseech Thee, mv life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live." Jonah 4: 3. And even the great Apostle Paul ?aid, "I ain in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ," but the trouble with the most of us is we want to die our own way. Elijah was not willing to die at the hand of Jezebel, but he was quite ready to sleep himself away into insensibility under the juniper tree in the desert. Elijah made a great mistake in running away. If he had stood his ground he might have saved his country, prevented the captivity of the people, for I doubt not the 7000 that had not bowed the knee to Baal would have come forth, and they would have rushed forward conquering and to conquer, but ^ Elijah is a picture of ourselves, and we all like him have been times without number under the juniper tree. The object of this sermon is to ask the question, "Why we are thus discouraged," and then to determine if possible what th? difficulty was with Elijah. 1. Why r.re we? There are thousands of people to-day who are ut-.erly dissatisfied . with life because they are living too artificial an experience. We have very many things that our ancestors did not possess, s. The possession of these things ought to bring to us great blessings in every way, but as a matter of fact it is true that neither happiness, nor brotherly love, nor power nor good have been increased in the least. We have indeed gone in the opposite direction, and many of us are of ? Wm\ n v/? rliiprtn. t it IA HACK Uiuav ui^viMwiv. >. v m.v tented because we are trying to be something that we arc not. The business man thinks he must keep pace with his competitor whatever the cosc to himself, and in a" little time he finds himself out of his latitude. In society thousands of people are aping the customs and manners ot those. - who are in an entirely different set from . ' themselves, by whose side they can never ^ ' stand, and if they did they would be only the more unhappy, and there are thousands of homes where instead of living a simr.l life the members of the household are liy ing at a pace that is territie, and all thi killing the business man. the societ; woman, the parents and the children, am instead of possessing joy and peace we nr tvurt Tim t l?I t* fn pleasure in these days is so great that w have become absolutely unscrupulous in ou attempts to gain the objects of oar dr s:res. We ought to be satisfied with ju> what we are and in the most natural way We have tonic into the world with differ ent gifts, some one with gold, others wit! silver, siiil others with t.iarbie and man; with only clay, and our task is to fa>hio! these things into the strongest manhooi and the truest womanhood, and to do i in the most simple and unaffected man lier. We are too selfish in our living. \vi long to satisfy our appetites, our passion and our de.-ires. This longing has beconv uppermost in our living, and the man win makes it so makes his appetite strongc than himself, and his need is dreadful, in: he who lives simply to eat. to drink, t< sleep and to dress, whether lie be paupc or prince, is on the downward grade to dc spair. Contentment is one of the greater blessings in the world. It is not a questioi of the posses.-ion of either poverty o: riches, lie who knows how to be eo iter possesses the secret, not because he i. either j>oor or rich, hut simply because hi knows how to be content. The mere fee that we are Christians docs not amoun to much in many cares; if our rc'igion in creases our confidence, our hope, our love it is good, but if it gives u.s the spirit the. we are better than other people, if we seel to control the interests of mother people make them fashion their lives cceordinj to our own plan, if we are good .-in:p.; that we may escape punishment, such ; profe-sion of religion is almost worthless The difficulty is not in our surrounding-.bu in ourselves. "Joy is not in things, it i; in us.'' I met r. young woman this winter in tin South wbi told me that she was the lios sensor of a 810.000 violin. and with a shin in tacc .she said, "You should hear thmusic of that instrument." and yet in thi hands o 2 very many people it would liavi been just a producer of unharuionioui sounds, while in the hands of this giftec young woman it was truly marvelous, anc all because the music was in her. and tin violin was the best movement of the ex prcssion of that music. When Ole Bull, the great violinist, playet in Princeton, one of the professors asket him if the secret of his success was in thi violin or in the bow or in himself, and hi said, "The violin and the bow amount ti but little. I never play until 1 feel tha there is music in me that must bo ex pressed, and then any instrument I toucl becomes remarkable." Many of us are un fitted for life because we have become to< artificial, have had wrong ideals and hav< tried to be what we never can be. , A friend recently sent me that wonder ful little book, "The Simple Life," b; Gharles Wagner, which every one wouU do well to read. To the author of thi: book I am indebted for some of the ex pressions used above, but in one of thi chapters he tells us in speaking of thi home life, "In the time of the Second Km pirc. in one of our pleasantest sub-prefec turcs of the provinces, a little way fron svnc baths frequented by the Kinperor there was a mayor, a very worthy mar. and intelligent, too, whose head was sud dcnlv turned by the thought that his sov creign might one dav descend unon hi home. Up to this time he had lived ii the hou?e of his fathers, a sen respcctfu of the slightest family traditions. Bu ing the Emperor had taken possession c his brain he became another man. In thi new light what had before seemed sr'i' eient for his needs, even enjoyalle, all thi simplicity that his ar.ee; tors had l?ved. an peared poor, ugly, ridiculous. Out of tb question to ask an Emperor to climb thi wooden staircase, sit in these old arm chairs, walk over such superanuatcJ car pets. So the mayor called architect an. masons, pickaxes attacked walls ar.d d; molished partitions, and a drawing-roo" was made out cf all proportion t the rest of the house in size and splcn dor. He and his family retired i :to closi quarters, where people and furnuurc in commoded each other generally. Then having emptied his.purse and upset hi household by this .stroke of genius, h awaited the royal guest. Alas, he sooi saw the end of the empire arrive, but th Emperor never. The folly of this pao man is not so rare. As sottish as he ar all those who sacrifice tbeir homo life t the demands of the world." II. What was the difficulty with Elijah rirst Ins physical streLgtn naa Deer cvei taxed. He had been laboring i.r.der th highest tension, his nerves were unstrung and he was just in the position wher Satan could tempt him the worst. Th:r are many like him to-day. They ere ii despair, end they need not so much a spii itual physician as the presence cf a docto who can tell them that their bodies mus have rest, their nerves must be built u; and they themselves must remember tha their bodies are the temples of the Hoi Ghost, and that they may sin against Goi just as truly when they break command touching the body as when they coinmi sins touching the soul. Elijah needed resi and instead of taking it he prayed that h might die. Second, he looke'd away from God to hi circumstances. l't> to that time he or dured as seeing Him who was invisible then like Peter when he saw the wind tha was boisterous he began to sink. I do no think that any minister could preach t< dav if he realized the iniquitv that sui ? "--J-.J u:? rumiuim ii11ji uic iij? j/vv.1 m iuun hearts, the awful sins in many lives; h would grow faint and sick at heart, an all because he looked down, while it i possible, on the other hand, for anybod to preach in the midst of nil ^his desoh tion if he keeps his eyes turned up, an the difficulty with vou is not that you power is dcrd, but that your eves are fas ened upon the ground instead of turne UDward to heaven, and the cause of you distress is not that your mother has gon away from your home, but that you at standing like Mary looking in at the toml when you ought to be standing with uj turned face looking by faith into the vcr midst of the angel company in heavci What if the difficulties are great, let i look to God in it all. The other day in my mail came a litt1 piece of poetry from a friend in Englam which has been singing its way like a bir of paradise through my soul all the week "When the way seems dark and dreary, Think of Him. Lest thy heart grow faint and weary, Think of Him. For He knoweth all the way. And His strength will be thy stay; ^?He can cheer the darkest day, Think of Him. f * "When some sorrow sorely presses, Think of Him. , For through trials oft ITc blesses, Think rf Him. lie alone can understand, t e Leave it all in His dear hand; , In His love for thee He planned, s Think o: Iliia. v , i "When some anxious care perplexes, 0 Think of Him. r Lest tiiv inmost soul it yeses, c Think of Him. r Hring thy carc and thou shalt see, He will bear it all for thee; t lie would have thee peaceful be, Think of Him." " Iir* ) 7?nt there was still another difficulty 1 with Elijah. First, he was alone. In ) verse .'? we read that he left his servant . at Eeersheba, and he himself v.;ent into the wilderness. It is a great mistake to ' lie alone when trouble comes. "Bear ye ^ one another's burdens, a:id so f ill till the B law o <.od," gives us a picture of human 't fellowship, vnile the verse. "Take my ' i folio upon you and lean of .Vie.'' gi? cs us an idea of that fellowship which we may ' have with Him. John MeXeill. the great Scot?!) preacher, ' has a fine illustration of this point in his sermon based upon I Samuel, the 27th , chanter and the first verse. "And David said in 1'is heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing ' better for me than that f should snccdilv . escape into the land of the Philistines I and Saul shall despair of inc. to seek me " any more in ary coast o' Israel; so shall 1 1 escape out of his hand." "Dav'd sail in _ his heart." and John McNeil! srys it would have been we!! if instead of saying ' it in his heart lie would have said it out] . loud. It is the thing wc say i:i our heart v that grow? to such great proportion a id * leads us to believe that we are on the 7 verge of despair. Without question the 1 passage is true, and Mr. McXcill suggest.; three cure?. ' First?Why didn't David sav it aloud . to his servant and let his servant argue " | him out of his position, for there are many , j things we think we would never dare to " say to our dearest friends. ] Second?Wh/ didn't David pray it. Tic ~ was a master in prayer, and if he had but l' fallen on his knees aftd said it to God, at least have tried to say it. he would have f found that his very tongue would have j cleaved to the roof rf his mouth, for there , are things we tl ink that we would blush , if we dared to sav them to God. * Third?Why didn't He sing it. Tie was much of a singer, was David, and if he had , but put it in a song his face would have ! grown hot, .and he wcnld have ended with , stammering and stumbling, and then said "WKr mv w*o nrt I this rule, and when we lnve a difficulty, . imaginary or real, let 113 say it, or pray it, or sing it, and if we cannot say it. nrd it won't pray, and will not sing there is nothing in it. It i3 but the devil's delu* sion to Dlunrre us into despair. a Fourth?He sat down. That \ras a great " nistake. He never should have given up. Tt he had only kept going he would have * found victory. There ere. so rinnv people j in the church to-day who have done just exactly what Elijah d.d. They have sat down. The man who one? taught a Sun* day-school class is now doing nothing and " fast slipning awav from Christ. The member of the church who used to he faithful [ at the prayer meeting is now absent a"d * sitting down in his Iioino he is of all men most miserable. That man who was once ' in the church and loved the church lias ' sat dowr in the world, and he questions if he ever knew Christ, so let us keep ' going. It is when a man is idle that Catan ? trii s hi:n up. i Fifth?He wanted to dictate to Ccd when he said to Him "Let me die." It is a good thing that Cod did not take him at 1 his word, for he would have died under a elcu.1. and would have been buried in the * desert. What a mcrcv it is that Co l c'^es ' not give us ail wc ask for. And ny nvi ? oruericnce I doubt not is yours, the things '' that Cod has refuced to me have been my greatest blessings. Then let us remember ^ that "no" is just <es much of an answer as "yes." and your experience in vour home - - * - - ? 1 ?J_ T.. 1 has been tliat no nr yo:v onuarer. tuiuii./ * is the hctier answer. Tint how gracious ' CJod is in His dealings with t! ose who are | out of the war. He calls Adam in tenderness when He says. "Whore art thou?" * He woos David back again to virtue in the story of the ewe lamb, and gives us a picture of Himself in the seeking love cf ' the father of the prodigal for h\s boy, lets J Ms understand something of His forgiveness when He sends in the nerson of nis ?
