BEHGION AT HOME.
AN ELOQUENT SERMON PREACHED
AT THE BROOKLYN TABERNACLE.
Kev. Br. Salmage Shows That Religious
Gratitude Should First Be Demonstrated
Ia the Family Circle-The Bight Train?
ing For Children.
BROOKLYN, April 15.-In the great
audience which assembled in the Brook?
lyn Tabernacle this forenoon were many
strangers. Rev. Dr. Talmage chose for
the subject of his sermon "Home Reli?
gion, " taking his text from Luke viii,
3ft, "Return to thine own house and
shew how great things God hath done
unto thee. "
.Aftern, fierce and shipwrecking night
Christ and his disciples are climbing np
the slaty shelving of the teach. How
pleasant it is to stand on solid ground
after having been tossed so long on the
billows! While the disciples are con?
gratulating each other on their marine
escape out from a dark, deep cavern on
the Gadarene hills there is something
swiftly and terribly advancing. Is it an
apparition? Is it a man? Is it a wild
beast? It is a maniac who has broken
away from his keepers, perhaps a few
rags on his person and fragments of
stoat shackles which he has wrenched
off in terrific paroxysm With wild yell
and bleeding wounds of his own lacer?
ation he flies down the hill
Back to the boats, ye fishermen, and
put ont to sea and escape assassination!
But Christ stands his ground; so do the
disciples, and as this flying fury, with
gnashing teeth and uplifted fists, dashes
at Christ Christ says: "Handsoff! Down
at my feet, thou poor sufferer." And the
demoniac drops harmless, exhausted,
worshipful "Away, ye devils!" com?
manded Christ, and the 2,000 fiends
which had been toruienting the poor
man are transferred io the 2,000 swine,
which go to sea with their accursed
carga
The restored demoniac sits down at
Christ's feet and wants to stay there.
Christ says to him practically: "Do not
stop. You have a mission to execute.
Wash off the filth and the wounds in the.
sea. Smooth your disheveled locks. Put
on decent apparel and go straight to your
desolated home and tell your wife and
children that you will no more affright
them and no more do them harm; that
you are restored to reason, and that I,
the omnipotent Son of God, am entitled
hereafter to the worship of your entire
household. Return to thine own house
and shew how great things God hath
done unto thee. "
" A Tme Home Luxury.
Yes, the house, the home is the first
place where our religious gratitude
ought to be demonstrated. In tho out?
side world we may seem tohavo religion
when we have it not, but the home tests
whether our religion is genuine or a
sham. What makes a happy home?
Well, one would say a house with
great wide halls, and antlered deer heacl;,
aad parlors with sculpture, and bric-a
brac, and dining hall with easy chair,
and plenty of light, and engravings of
game on the wall, and sleeping apart?
ments commodious and adorned. No. In
such a place as that gigantic wretched?
ness has sometimes dwelt, w?iile some
of,you look back to your father's house,
where they read their Bible by the light
of a tallow candle. There were no carpets
on the floor save those made from the rags
which your mother cut night by night,
yon helping wind them into a ball, and
then sent to the weaver, who brought
them to shape under his slow shuttle.
Not a luxury in all the house. But you
cannot think of it this morning without
tearful and grateful emotion. You and
I have found out that it is not rich tap?
estry, or gorgeous architecture, or rare
art that makes a happy home.
The six wise men of Greece gave pre?
scriptions for a happy home. Solon says
a happy home is a place where a man's
estate was gotten withoutin justice, kept
without disquietude and spent without
repentance. Chilo says that a happy
home is the place where a man rules j
as a monarch a kingdom Bias says that !
a happy, home is a place where a man
does voluntarily what by law he is com
- pelled to clo abroad. * But yon and I un?
der a grander light give a better pre?
scription-a happy home is a place
where the kindness of the gospel of the
Son of God has full swing.
Religion In Domestic Duties.
While I speak this morning there is ?
knocking at your front door, if he be i
not already admitted, one whose locks j
are wet with the dews of the night, who |
would take your children into his arms
and would throw upon your nursery, and j
your sleeping apartments, and your draw- i
ing room, and your entire house a bless- ?
ing that will make yon rich while you j
live and be an inheritance to your chil- j
dren after you have done the last day's
work for their support and made for
them the last prayer. It is the illustri?
ous one who said to the man of my
text, "Return to thine own house and
shew how great things God hath done
unto thee." Now, in the first place, we i
want religion in our domestic duties. j
Every housekeeper needs great grace, j
If Martha had had more religion, she j
would not have rushed with such bad j
temper to scold Mary in the presence of j
Christ It is no small thing to keep or?
der and secure cleanliness and mend
breakages and achieve economy and con- i
trol all the affairs of the household ad\- j
vantageously. Expenses will run up,
store bills will come in twice as large as
you think they ought to be, furniture
will wear out, carpets will unravel and
the martyrs of the fire are very few in
comparison with the martyrs of house?
keeping.
Yet there are hundreds of people in
this church this morning who in their
homes are managing all these affairs
with a composure, an adroitness, an in- i
genni ty and a faithfulness which they
never could have reached but for the
grace of our practical Christianity. The
Exasperations which wear out others
bave been to you spiritual development
and sanctification. Employments which
seemed to relate only to an hour have
on them all the grandeurs of eternal his?
tory.
You need tho religion pf Chrisp in the j
MPT-?wp-i---BgaMan
discipline of your children. The
which in other homes may be thc
means used in yours will be the
There will be no harsh epithets-1
knave, you villain, you scoundrel,
thrash the life out of you; you are

of chastisement makes thieves, j
pockets, murderers and the outlaws c
ciety. That parent who in anger sti
his child across the head deserves
penitentiary. And yet this work of
cipline must be attended to. God's g
can direct us. Alas, for those*who c
to the work with fierce passion andr
lessness of consequences! Between
verity and laxativeness there is
choice. Both ruinous and both destr
iva But there is a healthful med
which the grace of God will show to
Religion as an Example.
Then we need the religion of Cl
to help us in setting a good exam
Cowper said of the oak: "Time
when settled on thy leaf a fly cc

of! Have you not been surprised so:
times, months or years after some c
versation which you supposed was
profound or intricate for them to un(
stand-some question of the child d<

it?
Your children are apt to think t
what you do is right They have no i

Things which you do knowing at
time to be wr?ng they take to be rig
They reason this way: "Father alw
does right Father did this. Theref

bad premises. JSTo one ever gets o
having had a*had example set him. Yt

your dress, your walk, your greetin
your goodbys, your comings, your

Now I would not have by this the ic

You are not emperor. You are compani

Aristotle said that a boy should begi
to study at 17 years of, age. Before th;
his time should be given to recreatioi
, I cannot adopt that theory. But this sm
gests a truth in the right directioi
Childhood is too brief, and we have n<
mough sympathy with its sportfulnes:
We want divine grace to help us in tl
adjustment of all these matters.
Besides that, how are your childre
ever to become Christians if you you:
self are not a Christian? I have notice
that however worldly and sinful parent
may be they want their children good
When young people have presente
themselves for admission into our meru
bership, I have said to them, "Are you
father and mother willing you sha]
come?" And they have said, "Oh, yes
they are delighted. to have us come
They have not been, in church for 1.0 0
15 years, but they will bu here next Sab
bath to see me baptized. ' ' I have notice?
that parents, however worldly, wau
their children good.
A Good Mother Sought.
So it was demonstrated in a polia
court in Canada, where a mother, he;
little child in her arms, sat by a tabl<
on which her own handcuffs lay, an(
the little babe took up the handcuffs mn
played with them and had great glee.
She knew not the sorrow of the hour.
And then when the mother was sent tc
prison the mother cried out: "O God,
let not this babe go into thc jail! Is
there not some mother hore who will
take this child? It is good enough foi
heaven. It is pure. I am bail I am
wicked. Is there not some one who will
take this child? I cannot have it tainted
with the prison. " Then a brazen crea?
ture rushed up and said, "Yes, I'll take
the child. " "JNTo, no, " said the mother,
"not you, not you. Is there not some
good mother here who will take this
child?" And then when the officer of
the law in mercy and pity took the child
to carry it away to find a home for it
the mother kissed it lovingly goodby and
said: "Goodby, my darling. It is better
you should never see me again. "
However worldly and sinful people
are, they want their children good. How
are you going to have them good? Buy
them a few good books? Teach them a
few excellent catechisms? Bring them
to church? That is all very well, but of
little final result unless yon do it with
the grace vi God in your heart. Do you
not realize that your children are started
for eternity? Are they on the right road?
Those little forms that are now so bright
and beautiful-when they have scat?
tered in the dust, there will bo an im?
mortal spirit living on in a mighty thea?
ter of action, and your faithfulness or
your neglect now is deciding that des?
tiny.
There is contention already among
ministering spirits of salvation and
fallen angels as to who shall have tho
mastery of that immortal spirit. Your
children are soon going out in the wo:
The temptations of life will rush u
them. The most rigid resolution -\
bend in the blast of evil. What wi!
the result? It will require all
straints of the gospel, all the streu
of a father's prayer, all the influcnc<
a Christian mother's example to k
them
You say it is too early to bring th<
Too early to bring them to God? Do :
know how early children were taker

as soon as they could take hold of
father's hand and walk up Mount M<
ah they should be taken lo the passov
Your children are not too young to co
to God. While you sit here and th:
of them perhaps their forms now
j bright and beautiful vanish from y
j and their disemb'xlied spirit rises, t
you see it after the life of virtue
crime is past, and the judgment is go:
and eternity is here.
I Prayer In the Borne.
A Christian minister said that in 1
first year of his pastorate he tried to p
suade a young mechanic of the imp
tance of family worship. Some ti:
passed, and the mechanic came to 1
pastor's study and said: "Do you :
member that girl? That was my O'1
child. She died this moining very si
denly. She has gone to God, I have
doubt, but if so she has told himwha
tell you now-that child never beare
prayer in her father's house, ne^
heard a prayer from her father's li]
Oh, if I only had her back again o
day to do my duty!" It will be a treme
dons thing at the last day if some o
shall say of ns: 4'I never heard my j
ther pray. I never heard my moth
pray."
Again, I remark, we want religion
all our home sorrows. There are 10,0
questions that come up in the best reg
lated household that must be settle
Perhaps the father has one favorite
the family, the mother another favori
in the family, and there are many que
tions that need delicate treatment.
Tyranny and arbitrary decision na?
no place in a household. If the paren
love God, there will be a spirit of se
sacrifice, and a spirit of forgiveness, ai
a kindness which will throw its char
over the entire household. Christ wi
come into that household and will sa;
"Husbands, love your wives and be n?
bitter against them. Wives, see that ye
reverence your husbands. Children, obi
your parents in the Lord. Servants, 1
; obedient to your masters." And tl
family will be like a garden on a sun
mer morning-the grass plot, and tl
flowers, and the vines, and the arch <
honeysuckle standing in the sunligl
glittering with dew.
Religion In Misfortune.
But then there will be sorrows thi
will come to the household. There ai
but few families that escape the strols
of financial misfortune. Financial mii
fortune comes to a house where there i
no-religion TTheykick against divin
allotments they curse God for the ir
coming calamity, they withdraw froi
the world because they cannot hold a
high a position in society as they one
did, and they fret, and they scowl, an
they sorrow, and they die. During th
past few years there have been tens o
thousands of men destroyed by thei
financial distresses.
But misfortune comes to the Christian
household. If religion, has full sway ii
that home, they stoop gracefully. The?
say, "This is right " The father says
"Perhaps money was getting to be nr
idol. Perhaps God is going to make mi
a better Christian by putting me througl
j the furnace of tribulation. Besides that,
j why should I fret anyhow? He wh<
? owneth the cattle on a thousand hilL
and out of whose hand all the fowls o:
! heaven peck their food is my Father
I He clotheth the lilies of the field. H<
will clothe me. If he takes care of the
raven, and the hawk, and the vulture,
most certainly he will take care of me,
his child."
Sorer troubles come-sickness and
j death. Loved ones sleep' the last sleep,
j A child is buried out cf sight. You say:
j "Alas, for this bitter elay! God has
! dealt very severely with me. I can nevei
j look up. O God, I cannot bear it"
! Christ comes in, and he says: "Hush, O
j troubled soul! It is well with the child
? I will strengthen thee in all thy trou
j bles. My grace is sufficient. When thou
i passeth through the waters, I will be
i with thee."
j When through the deep waters I call thee
togo,
! The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow,
j For I will be with thee thy troubles to bless,
. And sanctify lo thee thy deepest distress.
j But there are hundreds of families
j represonteel here this morning where re
? ligion has been a great comfort. There
j are in your homes the pictures of your
j departed anel things that have no won
' derful value of themselves, but you keep
j them preciously and carefully because
? hands now still once touched them. A
j father has gone out of this household, a
? mother has gone out of this, a daughter
I just after her graduation day, a son just
! as he was entering on the duties of life.
The Family Altar,
j And to other homes trouble will come,
j I say it not that you may be foreboding,
! not that you may do the unwise thing
j of taking trouble by the forelock, but
j that you may be ready. We must go one
j by one. There will be partings in all our
i households. We must say farewell. We
! must elie. Anel yet there are triumphant
: strains that drown these tremulous ac
i cents, there are anthems that whelm the
? dirge. Heaven is full of the shout of de
' livereel captives, and to the great wide
j field of human sorrow there come now
i the reaper angels with keen sickles to
j harvest the sheaves of heaven.
Saints will to the end endure;
Safely will the Shepherd keep
Those he purchased for his sheep.
Go home this day and ask the blessing
i on your noonelay meal. Tonight set up
? the famliy altar. Do not wait until you
; become a Christian yourself. This day
! unite Christ to your household, for the j
j Bible distinctly says that God will pour
out his fury upon the families that call I
j not upon his name. Open the Bible anel j
j read a chapter; that will make you I
I strong. Kneel down and offer the first I
! prayer in your household. It may be a
j broken petition; it maybe only "Goel be
j merciful to me, a sinner. ' ' But God will
stcbp, and spirits will listen, and angels
will chant, "Behold, he prays!"
Do not retire from this honse this
morning nntil yea have resolved npon
the matter. You will be gone. I will be
gone. Many years will pass, and per?
haps your younger children may forget
almost everything about you, but 40
years from now in some Sabbath twi?
light your daughter will be sitting with
the family Bible on her lap reading to
her children when she will stop, and pe?
culiar solemnity will come to her face,
and a tear will start, and the children
will say, "Mother, what makes you
cry?" And she will say, "Nothing, only
I was thinking that this is the very Bi?
ble out of which my father and mother
used toread at morning and evening
prayer."
All other things about you they may
forget, but train them up for God and
heaven. They will not forget that
A Grand Gift.
When a queen died, her three sons
brought an offering to the grave. One
son brought gold, another brought sil?
ver, but the third son came and stood
over the grave and opened one of his
veins and let the blood drop upon his
mother's tomb, and all who saw it said
it was the greatest demonstration of
affection. My friends, what is the grand?
est gift wo can bring to the sepulchers
of a Christian ancestry? It is a life all
consecrated to the God who made us
and the Christ who redeemed us. I can?
not but believe that there are hundreds
of parents in this house who have re?
solved to do their whole duty and that
at this moment they are passing into a
better life, and having seen the grace of
the gospel in this place today you arc
now fully ready to return to your own
house and show what great things God
has done unto you.
Though parents may in covenant bc
And have their heaven in view.
They are not happy till they tee
Their children happy too.
May the Lord God of Abraham and
Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers,
be our God and the God of our children
forever.
