HEMS A R SUNDAY SERMON.
Discourse by Rev. Wm.
Young Chapman.
Brooklyn, N. Y.?Dr. William Young
Clnjgmau. pastor of the Lafayette AveW^M
nue Presbyterian Church. Buffalo,
pretiched Sunday at both services in
the Central Presbyterian Church. In
the morning lie had as his subject
"Churchgoing Abolished." The text
t .was from Revelation xxi:22: "And 1
' ^rr no temple thereiu." Dr. Chapm
man said:
Among many things in this sublime
I apocalypse of St. .lolin hard to be un
derstood there is one thing that stands
V out with clearness and certainty, and

Bfe* f same church triumphant ami perfect
there that is militant and defective
r^jLhere. The same souls that struggle
^Und suffer here are they that walk in
white and wave palms of victory there.
Biere we see as in a glass darkly,
^iere they see face to face. Here we
^now in part, there they know as they
are known. Joan had given to him a
divine horoscope, revealing the consummation
and absolute i>erfection of the
essential characteristics of the kingdom
of Hod concentrated in the imperial
capital of the universe?the city of
Hod. By every sort of figure and symbol
are its glories sot forth. And we
learn as much about it by what is said
negatively as by what is said positively.
Thus we are told it has streets of
gold and gates of pearl and a sea of
glass aud all the most costly and beautiful
things of this world, while ail
that is disagreeable ? pain, sickness,
sorrow, sin. death?is wanting there.
There is nothing to hurt or annoy, 110
night. no more sen. no lempie.
And it strikes us at tirst thought as
rery strange that there sltor.ld be no
temple, 110 central place of worstiip in
a city which we are accustomed to
think is altogether devoted to religion.
And yet the text states a great truth
which I want to treat broadly, and 1
Relieve the text contains easily the subject
by wbicb 1 have chosen to entitle
this discourse. "Churcbgoing Abolished."
The end being attained, the
means are discontinued. Hence there
are no more churches. 110 times, nor
places, nor forms: no liturgie nor rituals;
no ecclesiastical machinery such
as we know here.
And, surely, this must come as a welcome
announcement to many a tired
churchgoer in this world who finds his
religious duties more or less irksome,
and to many a non-churchgoer, who
does not feel quite comfortable in his
neglect of formal religious exercises.
Many there are who indulge an indifferent
hope of heaven as a sort of
Mohammedan paradise, where they
may enjoy an eternal holiday, basking
In the uncreated rays, drinking from
and bathing in the waters of the fountain
of life, eating the twelve manner
of rruits and sailing on me giassy sen.
But they would hardly he attracted to
a place where this ceaseless round of
ecclesiastical duties should go on forever.
Imagine such a one enjoying the
delights of that glorious city, counting
the towers thereof, marking well her
bulwarks and admiring her foundations
of jasper and sapphire and chalcedony
and sardius and emerald and
sardonyx and chrysolyte and beryl and
topaz and chrysoprasus and jacinth
and amethyst, when suddenly there
comes a peal from the golden bells and
poor soul, he must take himself off to
prayers.
Let such a one be comforted, for
John says he saw no temple there, and
we dare to infer from that statement
that there is no synagogue, nor mectiping
house, nor Sunday, nor formal religious
exercise, "for the Lord God Almighty
and the Lamb are the temple
of it."
It becomes us to inquire more closely
into the truth involved here. And if
what John saw was the church triumphant,
if the conditions he saw were
the perfection of what is rudimentary
here, if the Holy City. New Jerusalem,
is continually coming down from God
out of heaven, then we ought to be refcllzlng
more r.ud more on earth that
heaven iyconuition.
I believe that condition is illustrated
by the progressive church of Christ on
earth. Think for a moment of the advantages
we have over the ancient
Jewish worshiper. He had his central
place of worship. Throe times a year
he must make his pilgrimage to Jerusalem,
from even the remotest corner
of the land. Over many a rugged mile
he must travel with his family and his
sheep and oxen for sacrifice and his
tent and provision for his journey, in
order to perform his religious duties.
There at Jerusalem was the temple.
There he expected to meet Cod, or at
least there Cod would be propitious.
There was the priest who could offer
his sacrifice and present his confession
to God. There was the holy place and
the most holy place, the locus of the
Jewish worship. Even in far off lands,
when he worshiped he turned his face
toward the temple, as if his heart were
there, in any case.
Then. too. his daily devotions found
expression in a most elaborate ceremonial.
There were divers' washings, as
there were multifarious causes of uncleauness.
There were tithings and
manifold offerings. There were sin offerings
and peace offerings, all associated
with infinite trouble to the worshiper.
These minute requirements
were Infinitely multiplied by the JewIn
the time of Christ and His apostles.

"which neither our fathers nor we
were able to bear."
Now it was immunity from these intolerable
burdens that was the first
great practical boon of Christianity.
Our Lord stated the precious truth to
the woman at the well. Said she.
"Our fathers worshiped in this mountain
(Terezimi. and ye say that in Jerusalem
is the place where men ought
to worship." Jesus saith unto her.
"Woman, believe Me. the hour cometh
when ye shall neither in this mountain,
nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the
Father. But the hour cometh and now
is. when the true worshipers shall worship
the Father in spirit and in truth.
r t;od is a spirit, and they that worship
Him must worship Him in spirit and
in truth." It was one of the first meanings
of Christ's sacrifice, to abolish the
temple. When He bowed His head in
death on Calvary und said "It is finished,"
"the veil of the temple was rent
in twain from the top to the bottom,**
and the whole significance of the temple
service passed away. The temple
' itself did not long survive the death of
/ Christ, and the ecclesiastical capital
was soon destroyed. Henceforth the
J* Church of God in the world was on a
i different basis. Henceforth God be^
came accessible without offering or (
k . priest, without temple or altar, and irA
respective of locality. We are enjoying
A in a measure that rest which Christ
wr came to give?rest from ceremonial
burdens. We are living in the dispensation
'of the spirit, and the church is
wherever the spirit moves men to wor
ship. Wherever the Holy Spirit has
and planted the gospel of Christ j
In the hearts of men, turning their T
thoughts and affections to God, there is
the cnurch. It matters not whether it
be in Greenland's iey mountains or In-' iN
dia's coral strand. It matters not
' whether it be in gorgeous cathedral or
in mountain cave. It matters not
5 whether the worshiper be white or Sl>
black, whether he worship on his knees
or on hi* feet or on his back, so long as
lie worship iu spirit and in truth.
Christianity so far as it consists of a
visible performance at all is the most tli
natural and spontaneous outgo of the cn
religious instincts to God. and religious tit
worship is essentially a personal com- T1
nntnion with Cod. and in such form th
and place as is best suited to the wor- se
shiper and most in accordance with the tli
will of God. 4 .11
Hence, you will see. one of the prime i?j
charm '.eristics ??f the church triumph- th
an: is perfect liberty. "Get religion." fr
said. Augustine, "and do as you please." th
r.y which he meant if you truly get re- j,fl
ligion you will always please to do i (,f
right. Paul means the same thing i ;
when lie says. "It" ye be in the spirit j sti
ye are not under the law." And Jesus ; a?
meant the same Vi hen lie said. "Make of
the tree good atul his fruit will be j c<
good." And hence, the idea! Christian j uu
lit.- is perfectly pontaneous. oho- J i;:
, dicnec is not by compulsion of law. but bu
by impulsion of love. "All the law is t)f
fulfilled in one word, 'Thou shalt sk
| love." " j j?.
We have heard not a little about 1 ai]
"the consent of the governed." and we p.
i are likely to hear more. The state- j c:l
ment as it stands in that famous doeumotit
will not bear a literal application, jjf
Put there is good reason to believe ljn
that our fathers knew what they were I or;
( talking about. If they had said, "gov- , ln.
' ernment derives its potency from the : Avj
i consent of the governed" they would I pi
i have been uttering the exact truth. ; Wj
Statutes are inoperative until the sub- j ro
jects consent. Perfect society implies'
perfect acquiescence it: the will of the ! j?.
superior or law making power. The _> >
more society progresses toward unity, j
the simpler and more equable will gov- jn,
ernment become, because the more gen- ' js
eral will be the consent acquiesence t
in the government. Paul says. "I con- pj
sent unto the law that it is good." and j ro,
in the perfect society of John's vision j pjj
each man enjoys perfect liberty be- ' sj,
cause the will of the governor and the j,r,
governed are in perfect correspond- j
once. Each individual does as he i jj,
pleases and at the sauie time does as
lie pleases. Hi
In some such way the perfect com- ,
nniuity is characterized uy periect | jnj
unity without uniformity. Each per- I p0
forms his own duty in his own way, J ^y
but is all the while in perfect liar- fj,:
mony with his neighbor. Again, in the I ;m
perfected society fhere is no distinc- [
tion between the religious and the sec- j ,-?in
ular. Here we have our times and ! -j,
places of religion. We gather here in wj
this house of prayer, believing that J
God is present here as lie is not in , -p
otlter places, as. indeed. He has prom- ' (j0
ised to bo. It is God's concession to ?f
our limitations and infirmities. Bui j
it is far from the ideal. We are apt , fat
to identify religion with the means ol W{]
religion, rather than religion itself. 1 ]i0
We get grace by our religious exercises sj,
to keep God's commandments in ali
our walks of life, and that istreligion. no
The members of tbe church triumphant
are equally religious every day of 0j~
the week and every hour of the day, rPj
and bene?, church-going in our sense sj,
of the word, is forever abolished. In jn
that society, one does not need to say ja]
to his brother. "Know the Lord." for , 0'p
all shall know Him from the least tc S;l]
the greatest. There is no more preach- ( (jf
ing. "no toitiple therein." tljj
Once more: it is obvious that the ,.0]
mora fnitiifni ntnl dovoted wo are tc ,
the menus of religion here the sooner jjy
j we shall be fitted to do without them. 0V(
Your child, learning to play the piano, 1 ?0]
finds it hard labor to spell out note by ; ^.j
note, conforming to the rules and nidiincuts
of practice. By and by she will i js*
' go beyond the rules. She will acquire , ?n;
the genius of the skilled performer. j
And the more diligently we observe t;u
our religious duties here the sooner I
we shall get beyond them. The more
faithful we are now to the times and
places of religious worship tlie sooner w."
shall we be ready for that society \ r *
; where all life is religious. . a
Zachariah had that vision ages be,
fore John had it. when he saw "Holi- 1 7
ness to the Lord" inscribed on the , n
bells of the horses and the pots in '.j,(
the Lord's house, as sacred as the inj
i howls of the altar: yen, and every pot | (-0
in Jerusalem as holy as the vessels of ; 1
the sanctuary. That was at least a ]
glimpse of the templeless city of God. J ns,
And now shall we not keep before y '
us that Ideal? Let us not oe uiscuur- ;
aped by the great disparity between (f)*
that far-off perfection- and present -ts
reality. The poet well expresses our f
feeling: " \
Oh, Land of Promise, from what Fis- rj?
gahs height I rj!
Can I behold ti#V stretch of peaceful s))
bowers, '
Thy golden .harvest flowing out of .

Gazing upon that vision, let ns be i tin

we may be lltfcd for that city where j th
there is no temple, "for the Lord God ! ha

Given Lien on Gravestones.
Among the many remarkable acts
of the Maine Legislature, recently adjourned,
was the passage of a law establishing
a lien on gravestones, by
which the marble worker may, within
two years from the erection of the
stone, take possession of the memorial
in satisfaction of any sum that
may at that time remain unpaid. When
the law was under consideration in
the legislature it attracted very little
attention, but now that it has been
passed there has arisen a great storm
of protest. The law is denounced as
"ghoulish," and the legislature and
tombstone makers are being roundly
abused for their utter lack of decency
in thus opening a legal way to the invasion
of the sacred .ts of the
dead. But it is the law and Maine
people who wish to rest easy in tbelr
graves must now make sure before
death that the tombstone maker will
be paid in full.
Cure For_The Blues
ONE MEDICINE THAT HAS NEVER FAILED
Health Fully Restored and the Joy of
Life Regained
When acheerful, brave, light-hearted
woman is suddenly plunged into that
perfection of misery, the BLlTES, it is
a sad picture. It is usually this way:
She has been feeling "out of sorts'*
for some time; head has ached and
back also; -has slept poorly, been quite
nervous, and nearly fainted once or
twice; head dizzy, and heart-beats very
fast; then that bearing-down feeling,
and during her menstrual period she is
exceedingly despondent Nothing
pleases her. Her doctor says: " Cheer
up: you have dyspepsia; you will be
all right soon."
But she doesn't get " all right." and
hope vanishes; then come the brooding,
morbid, melancholy, everlasting
BLUES.
Don't wait until your sufferings have
driven you to despair, with your nerves
all shattered and your courage gone,
but take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. See what it did for
Mrs. Rosa Adams, of 819 12th Street,
Louisville, Ky.. niece of the late General
Roger Hanson, C.S.A. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:?
" I cannot tell you with pen and ink what
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has done for uie. I suffered with female
troubles, extreme lassitude, 4 the blues,'
nervousness and that all gone feeling. I was
advised to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and it not only cured ray female
derangement, but it has restored me to perfect
health and strength. The buoyancy of my
younger days has returned, and I do not suffer
any longer with despondencv, as 1 did bet'oro.
I consider Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound a boon to sick and sulTering
women."
If you have some derangement of
the female organism write Mrs.
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for advice.
