TKXT, .1<?IIN, 2:li?-17. In 1 lis introduction, Ur. Taylor developed 11ni thought that Jesus Christ was a reformer as well as the spiritual saviour of men, that the sermon on the mount was a thorough-going reform document in which 1 le attacked the social, political and religious abuses of H s dav. r< formimr them in the liirht of llis more spiritual administration, that if lie were here today He would interest Himself in ordinary reform movements, in the enactment of righteous law and in the enforcement of the same, that therefore his followers should he foremost and not hindmost in all citizenship affairs. NAKKOW CONCEPTION OK CH1MST. We have heen in the liahit of relegating Jesus Christ to the purely spiritual sphere. We have not ordinarily supposed that it vu*s in His purpose to mix up in what we call the secular affairs of the world. He was horn in a stable because there was not room enough for Him in the inn. There has never heen adequate room given to Christ in the conceptions of men for Ilini to do what He has always wanted to do for us. We have kept Him locked up in a spiritual realm, and have only called upon Him to come down and help us whenever we have wanted a good prayer mel ting or a powerful revival service. Hut He has always been ready tn help us solve the every day problems of life?of home, business, society, and of government. Some people say that religious work is one thing anil reform worl I toiwiuieon/io mi i??l? o dime tin i\ir I \ ri iuill|n lilIIVO illiwiliri liil"h ! :is though it were optional wliethei I reform work should he undertakei hy a Christian man or not. Hu you will not find any such arbitrary distinction made in the lite o .lesus Christ. When here lh j went as far in the line of citizen ship duty as the government nnde which lie lived allowed or require* llim to g?>. -lesus Christ was ; Jew, and the .lews in llis day w< r under the 1 Ionian yoke. 1 h Uoman govertnuent require" 1 of th .Jew hut two things, viz: to submi to existing law, ami to pay poll ta: to support the government. N< tiee that those won- just the tw things that .lesus did. Some pe? pie say th: t .h -u- ?lid not iyix u >.? jtMii-gn government, and (const qiicntly was not required to fit so Hut ii the Unman (iovernniei.'it ha< ret|uired the .lew t?? express his po litieal convictions Jesus Chrisi would have spoken for the righ and eondtmned the wrong. So, were He lu re to-day, as a horn eic i/.en under our iorm of government, He would respond to every requirement of citizenship, lie would east His ballot. It would stand for a righteous policy of government as opposed to wrong, and for clean, decent men for ollieo as opposed to scalawags. You would not find llim on the political fence, ready i<? jump uic way the tide might turn, n*?r in tin- corner skulking to get rid of political iv-ponsibility. Y<>u would know exactly where to count Him. -oiwi.i: vor:: I'oi.rn* - nv rin: ;osh-:i.. i'ml in writing to the I'hillipian.-aid ?"(>nl,v '-I your pol'ii< (oitiYi U-hip) I'C as Ill-roil!' til tile (lo.-pel ?f Chri.-t."

(lospel ends on i 10 subject? if Some commentators who com-1 c ent at length on easy passages' [ id slip hard places, toll us that is passage has no reference to or- t nary polities, that it stands for a general Christian conduct." t ppose it does. What is general iristian conduct unless it be Christian conduct made general, lancl when you make Chtistian conduct general you will take it with you everywhere you go, will you :/not? When you go into private j /life where none will see you hut j (lod, you will take it with you j there. Then you will behave yourself before (Jod. The same will he I true in publH, social and business ' life. There are two. standards of living in this world, one for ordinary life and another for politics. A man will be held as truly responsible at the bar of (Jod for what he docs in! polities as for what ho does in j a prayer meeting. He cannot be a , praying Christian in a church and i a political scalawag at the same time. But when you go into politics, what then? Oh, that is a horse of another color. When you are in Home, you must do as the Roman, and when you go into | ' dirty polities you must become "as! ( dirty as they make them,'' for { that is practical politics. Ah, me | sir, not at all! Politics is not | | "hell's half acre" where a man | may do as he pleases and not he ' held accountable therefor. I Continuing I)r. Taylor gave a1 1 careful and scholarly exposition of the 18th chapter of Paul's epistle to, = the Romans, showing that human government was of divine origin and consitutcd an ordinance of | God. Not that any particular form of government was prescribed by God, hut government in principle, 1 aw, order, the regulation of i . ' i society for the general good, j The common notion is that hu-1 man government is a human thing, 1! which accounts for the fact thatj ' some men feel at liberty to "play > politics" with it, putting it down | 1 when it pleases them better. Rut ; if it is of divine origin let men he-1 - j ware how they treat it. ' I (iOVKHNMKNT AN OKDIN.UK OF (iOD. . | Civil government is as specitic ^ an ordinance of Cod as is that of . the Lord's Supper," said the j /speaker, "only having different L.1 spheres of operation, one civic and ; the other religions.

I Notice the distinction: When (iod works in His church lie deals with 1 spiritually saved nun. Const:-' quently, all ollieers of the church I. uiust Ik* spiritually save 1 nu n; but se'" when Ho works in government is operating in another, viz, the : torj civic sphere, and under a civic or- i a<ln dinance, where are grouped the f?r spiritually saved and lost alike, where all classes and distinctions( ire to he considered, hence you may have a president, governor or' mayor, or other officer who is not a WOF spiritually saved man, but you! must have a clean man?pure in j j | lis home, in society and in busi- jj( less in order to represent the char- Mnti icter of God.
