What u glorious thing lo preach the "

have rcsignod a 11 x?**1 pastorate I will
ceaso to preach. No, uo. I expect to a
preach more limn I ever have. If tho l"
Lord will, lour tluies as irtuoii, 1 hough
in manifold places. I wouhl not dure to v
halt with such opportunity to declare the ,r
tiuth through tho ear to audieuci-a and to n'
tho eyo through the printing press. Au-l "
hero wo lmvo a stirring theme put before ,M
us by ttie prophet.
A; groat general of King David w is
Etonzur, tiio hero of the text. 'J'lie PnHis- *
tiuos opened battle against Mm, and his f'
troops retreated. The cowards fled. *"
Eleax.ar and three or his comrades weut
Into the battle and swept tile Held, for
four mon with Ood on their side ar.t
stronger than n whcia regiment with God K*
against them. "Full buck!" shouted the 'n
eomninnder of the Philistine nrrny. The ^
cry rati along tho host, 'Fall "hick!" Cl
Eleazar, having swept the Cold, throw* lu
himself on the ground to rest, hat the inu*- 111
cles and sinews of his hand had been *>? ?'!
long bent around the hilt of Ids sword that !.
the hilt was Imbedded In tho flesh, and the 5 '
gold wire of the hilt had broken through 3
tho skin of tho palm of tho hand, nt\d hcould
not tlrop this sword vrhtch ho had
so gallantly wielded. "His hand clave
unto tho sword." 'Flint Is what I call
iiingnlllcent llghtlog for the I.ord Goi of
Israel. And wo want tuoro of t.
I propose to show you how Elenzar look
hold of Itlie sword aud how tho sword too'; J"
hold of Eloazar. I look at Klcnzur's hand, "v
and I como to the couclusioa that ho took tr
tho sword with a very tight grip. Tho
cowards who fled had no trouble in dropping
their swords. As I hey fly over the
rocks I hear their swords clanging In every
direction. It Is easy enough for them to ',l:
ilvop their swords, but Eleanor's hand clave xv
unto the sword. In this Christian conflict {"
we want n tighter grip of theOospcl weepons,
n tighter grasp of the two edired stvor.t "v
of tli? trut li. It tuaki'9 niusick to tot* these
Christian people who holtl only h part ot
tho truth and lot the rest of the truth go
to that the Philistines, snelug the loosened lJ
grasp, wrench tiie whole sword away from
thorn. Tho only safe thing for um to do is t<?
put our thumb on the book of Genesis ami
sweep our hand nrouud tho hook until the
New Testament comes Into the palm and
keep ou sweeping our hand around the o
book until tho tips of the lingers clutch at c
the words "Iu the ht ginning God created (j
tho heavens and tho earth." I like an lull- p,
del a great deal bettor than I do one of pj
thesennmby pumhy Christians who hold a Sl(
part of tho 1 ruth and let tho rest go. jjy i0
miracle God preserved this Bible just as It
Is, and it Is a Damaseus blade. The sever- u:
est test to which a sword can bo put iu a pi
sword factory is to wind the I.lade around f0
a gun barrel like a ribbon, and tlien when n,
tiie sword Is let loose it liiex buck to its own c|
shape. Ho the sword of God's truth lias
been fully tested, an l it Is bent this way r(
and ttiut wnv and wound this way and that p.
way, but It always comes back to Its own s,"
shape. Think of II! A book written nearly j|
nineteen eeuturios ago, and some of It p
thousands of years ago, and yet in j, j
our time the average sale of this hook w
Is more than 21.000 copies every week and n
more than 1,000,000 copies a year! I say },,
now that a book which is divinely inspired i,|
ami divinely kept aud divinely scattered Is
a weapon worth holding a tight grip of. p,
Bishop Colenso will fomu along and try to Sj
wrench out of your hand the live books of
>io?es, aud Str.iuss will come along and try j,,
to wrench out of your hand tho miracles, ;l|
an I Kenan will come along and try to -l(
wrench out of your hand the otitiro life of ](|
the I.ord Jesus Christ, and your associates 0
ill the office or the factorv or ?lu? I.nt.!. !. <?
house will try to wrench out of your hand
IUo entire lti(?!??, hut in tin1 strength of t>i?* t;
Lord Go 1 of Israel ami with Lleuzar's grip
holil on to it. Vou give up tliu Bible, you
give up any part of It, and you glvoup par- ndon
and ponce and life in heaven.
l)o not be ashamed, young man, to have p
the workl know that you arc afriondof tho ?
Bible. Tills book Is tlie friend of all that is t.
good. and it is tho sworn enemy of ail that
Is bad. An eloquent writer recently gives ,1
an incident of u very had man who st"o I jj
in a cell of a Western prison. This eriml- 0
mi I had (tone through all stylos of crime, t;
and ho was there waiting for tho gallows. n
Tim eonvii.t standing tliero at tho window f,
of tho cell, this writer says, "looked out j
and declared, 'I am an iuildel.' Ho said
that to nl! tho men anl women and oliil- <'
<!ren who happened to bo gathered there. u
'I am an inlluel." " And tho elo(|iient writer VJ
hays, "Kvery man and woman there bo- ,,
lifved htm." And the writer goes to i,
pay. "If he had stood there saying, 'I am w
u Christian.' every man and woman would j,
have sal l, 'Ho Is a liar'.'"
This Bible is tho sworn enemy of nll'that j,
is wrong, and it is the friend of all that is
good. On, hold on il! Do not take part ?
of it and throw tho rest away. Hold on to ,,
nil of if. There are so many people now j.
who do not know. You ask them If the
soul is immortal, and they say: "1 guess it
is; I don't know. Perhaps it Is; perhaps tj
it isn't." Is the Bible true? "Well, perhaps j..,
it is, and perhaps it isn't. Perhaps it may
' o, figuratively, and perhaps it may he ..
partly, and perhaps it may not be at all." M
They despise wnat lliey end tho apostolic j,
creed, but if lb ir own freed were written n
out it would read like tlii>: "I believe in ,,
nothing, the maker of heaven and earth, u
and in nothing which it hntli sent, which ...

teas of thousands of people in tills dirv. If
you liav-j a ml ml t>> adopt such a theory, I |,
will not. "f belie vu in Clod, the Father A!- |,

when I seo Eiea/.nr taking such a stout <?l
grin of tho sword in the haitio against sin s
ami for righteousness, 1 eoaie to tho con- ei
elusion that wo ought to take a stouter ci
grip of (Sod's eternal truth?tho sword of e:

through tho puttn of his barn). Do did not '
know it hurt him. Ah ho wont out into tho
conflict ho was so anxious for tho vietorv
ho forgot himself, and that hilt might go
never so deeply into tho palm of his hand,
it could not disturb him. "His hand clavo
unto tho sword." Oh, my brother.* and
sisters, let us go Into tho Christian conflict
with tho spirit of self abnegation. Who <
cares whether tho world praises us or denounces
us? What do wo euro for misrepresentation
or ahuso or persecution In a
conflict like this? Let us forgot ourselves.
Tint man who Is afraid of getting his hand
0 hurt will never kill a Philistine. Who
cares whether you get hurt or not if you
get the victory? Oh. how many Christians
there are who' are alt the tlmo worrying
about the way tho worl I treats thorn!
They are so tired, and they aro so abused,
and they are so tempted, when Klenz ir *
did not think whether ho had a baud or nn
arm or a toot. All he wanted was victory.
We see how inon forget themselves in
worldly achievement. We liavo often seen ^
men who. In order to ae.ileve worldly sue- j
cess, will lorgot all physical fatigue and '
ail uuuoyttucu and all obstacle. Just after t
he battle of Yorktown la the American |
'.evolution a musician, wounded, was told j
to uiust beve his limbs amputated, and j
hey were about to fasten him to
he aurgeou's table, for it was
ong before fbe merciful discovery of
iiKvstbetics. Husn??l: "No; don't fasten
ns to that table. Get rrn a Ylollo." A
iolin was brought to him, and he said,
'Now, go to work its i begin to piny," ami
or forty mluutcs, during the MWful pangs
if amputation, ho moved not a muscle nor
Iroppeil a note, while he pluyed some
weet tunc. Oh, Is It not strange that with
ho music of the Gospel of Jesus Christ,
nd with this grand m?rch of the church
militant on the way to become the church
rlumphant, wo cannot forget ourselves
nd forget all | nng nud nil sorrow and all
ors ccutlon and all perturbation?
Wo know what men accomplish under
orldly opposition. Men do not shrink hack
>r antagonism or for hardship. You have
ilmlred Pre-cott's "Conquest of Mexico,"
* brilliant ami beautiful a history as was
>?-r wiiii?-u, urn Bom? or you may not
now under wlnit disadvantages |r was
rltten?that "Conquest of Mexico"?for
rescott was totally Miml, ami he had two
leei's of wood parallel to each other fast)?'d,
ami totally blind, with liis pen hereon
those pieces of wood, ho wrote the
roko against ouo piece of wood tolling
)\v far the pen must go In one way, ti>?
roke against the other piece of wood lellg
how fur the pen must go the other way.
h, how tnticb men will endure for worldly
:iowledge and for wordly success. and yet
>w little we endure for Jesus Chris!! How
any Christians there are that go around
yiug, "Oh, my hand; oh, my hard, my
trt hand! Don't you see there Is blood on
e sword?" while Dleaznr, with tho hilt Im?dded
In the flesh of hie right hand, does
>t know It.
Must I ho enrried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease.
While others fought to win the prize
Or suited through bloody seas?
What have wc suffered in comparison with
lose who expired with suffocation or wero
irned or were chopped to pieces for the
uth's sake? We talk of the persecution
' olden times. There Is just us much percution
going on now In various ways. In
4'J, in Madagascar, eighteen meu were put
i death for Christ's sake. They weie to
> hurled over the rocks, and before they
ere hurled over the rocks, in order to
ake their death the more dreadful iu an ipatloD,
they were put in baskets and
rung to and fro over the precipice that
icy might see how nt'tnv hundred feet they
ouid have to lie dashed down, and while
icy were swinging iu these baskets over
le rocks they sung:
Jesus, lover of my soul,
Let me to Toy bosom fly,
W.ille the billows near ino roll.
While the tempest still is high.
Then they were "lushed down to death,
h, how much others have endured for
hrist, and how little we endure for
lirist! We waut to ride to heaven in 11
111 idii 11 sleeping car. our foot on soft

y our liuiul up. Let them bring on all the
it ami nil the bandages and all the salve,
r our hand is hurt, while Eleanor does
>t know his hand is hurt. "His hand
ave nuto the swor.l."
As I look at Eleii/.ar's hand I eoir.e to the
inclusion that he has done a great deal of
ird hitting. I am not surprised when I
ie that these four men?Eleaznr anil his
ir? o companions drove back the army of
iiilistlnes?that Elea/.ar's sword clave to
Is hand, for every time be struck nu enemy
itii one end of the sword the other end of
in sword wounded him. When he took
old of the sword, the sword took hold oI
Im.
Oh, we have found an enemy who cannot
;? conquered by rosewnter and soft
icccbes. It must lie sharp stroke and
rulght thrust. There is intemperance,
tut there is fraud, and there is gambling,
i?d there is lust, and there arc 10.000 batdions
of iniquity, armed Philistine inintty.
IIow are t'icy to be captured and
verthrown? Soft sermons in morocco

will not do it. You have got to call
lings by their right name. You have got

iat while you slay the sin the sword will

lends. we want a few John linoxes and

The whole tendency is to rellne on

ntil we smut apologetic word to Iniquity

uxiety for the world's redemption Is lost

hlie Eleazur went into the eonQot, "and
Is hand clavo unto the sword."
Jint I see in the next place what a hard
ling it was tor Eloa/.ar to get his hand and
Is sword parted. The muscles und the
news had been so long grasped around
ie sword lie could not drop it when he
reposed to drop it, and his three comides,
I suppose, came up and tried to help
i.n. ami they bathed the back part of his
and, hoping the sinews and muscles would

word." Then they tried to pull open the
tigers ami to null hack the thuinh. but no
loner wore they pulled DneR tliun tney
losed again, "an<l his hand cluvo unto the
word." But after awhile they were.sucrtssfnl,
and then they noticed that the
urve in the palm of the hand corresponded
xactly with the curve of the hilt. "His
nn<i clave unto the sword."
You and I have seou It many n time,

?any aged ministers of the Gospel,
'hey are too feehlo now to preach. In
lie church records the word standing
pposito their name Is "emeritus," or
lie words are "a minister without
Imrge." They were a heroic race. They
:id small salaries and but few books,
ad they swain spring freshets to meet
lieir appointments, lull they did iu their
ay a mighty work for God. They
>ok off more of the heads of Philistine
liqulty than you could count from noon

lie Gospel now into a prayer meeting or
c.-asional pulpit or a sick room whore
liero is some one to lie comforted, and it is
lie same old ring to ids voice and the
nine old story of pardon and poace and

latched the sword in Christian cotiilict lie
amiot drop it. "His hand clave unto the

makes the clalui that, had the Draw
Monarch, Louis XIV., encouraged Jem
Bart as he deserved, the sea uud tin
world might have another story for m
to-day. Mr. Watson writes:
"Jean Bart is a robust iigure of these
times. He came of a race of corsafrt
of Dunkirk. A corsulr, you musl
know, was a gentleman pirate. He diC
unto all ships hut those of his o\v*
country the deeds which pirates d'1'

der. Thus Joau was cradled In the
luxuries, liberties, aud heroisms of legalized
piracy, and from his youth he
followed the seas."
In 10GG he served in the crew of n
man-of-war commanded by a brute
named Valbue. Even at this early age
he was a hero. In those days the captain
of a ship was master of life and
death on board his vessel. The code of
Olcrou, "an eye for an eye," wus then
the guide. If a sailor drew a knife
upon another, the offending hand was
nailed to the must with a knife. If he
killed his mate, his own body was tied
to that of ids victim, and both were
cast into the sea. This simple code
was practiced for several hundred
years, because it was popular among
sailors. In trying a case the captain
took a vote of the crew, aud the majority
decided.
There was one Huguenot sailor in
the crew of Cnlliue, and his religion
made him the butt of his messmates.
Valbue told a story of a miracle performed
by some priest, and, when lie
had iinished, he threw at the Huguenot
sailor an insulting remark and a
tin can. The sailor appealed to the
code of Oleron. Valbue, angered by
his resistance, struck Iaiuoix ttlic
Huguenot) with a capstan. I.nnoix
retreated over the iron rail which ran
across the forward part of the ship
and warned Valbue not to strike hi in

again, "for 1 have passed the chain."
This was known in all ships of those
days as "the chain of refuge." This
part of t We ship was as a suuetuary on
land. Yalbue declared that the law
did not apply to swine Jews nud
Huguenots, and so rushed upon Lanoix
ami struck hint. Lanoix stabbed
the captain in the arm, and all the
crew except Jean Hart Saurct fell upon
the Huguenot, who killed one ol
mem with his knife.
"Bring me the book!" shouted the
captain, and the cabin boy fetched the
code of Olcrou.
"Bead me the law!" demanded Yalbue
of Saurct, putting his linger on tht
clause meant.
"1 will not read it!" answered Sauret
disgusted and indignant.
"You are not acting according tc
law," continued Saurct. "This uufor
lunate man (Lanoix) is entitled ti
three meals at which he may confes>
his faults; he is also entitled to mukt
his oath of excuse and his promise ol
future obedience."
"Hush your mouth!" shouted Yalbue.
"Being a heretic, he is entitled
to none of these rights.
"Listen!" continued Yalbue, whost
method of procedure was, in truth, di
a helically regular and correct. "Tht
sailor who raises his hand against tlu
