What a challenge that was uttered by the old missionary hero: "If God be for us. who can be against us?" Think of it'. God is the only being in the universe who has power to do as he pleases.

But what is natural law? It is only God’s wsy of doing things. At every point In the universe it is God's direct and con- tinuous power that controls and har- monises and sustains. That power withdrawn one instant would mite the planetary system and all the worlds which astronomy reveals one univer- sal wreck. bereft hemispheres. dis- mantled sunsets. dead constellations. debris of worlds.

What is that power to Archbishop Tillotson and Dr. Dick and Timothy Dwight and Jonathan Edwards of the past. and the mighti- est theologians ot this young cen- tury have dfrrcoursed upon the power of God. the attribute of omnipotence. And we have all seen demonstrations of God's almightiness. It might have been tar out at sea when in an equi- noctiai gale God showed what He could do with the waters. It might have been in an August thunderstorm " the mountains when God showed what he could do with the lightning! It might have been in South America when God showed what He could do with the earthquakes. It might have, been among the Alps when God showed what he could do with the avalanches. Our cheek was blanched, our breath stopped. our purses mattered, our whole being was terrorised, but we had seen only an instance ot divine strength! What was the power of that storm‘ Aomrared with the power which holds all the oceans? What was the power that shook the hills compared with the power that swings the earth through all the centuries and for 6,000 years and in a formative and incomplete shape for hundreds of thousands of years? What is that power that sustains our world compared with the power that rolls through immensity the entire solar sys- tem and all the constellations and gal- axies and the universe? The mighti- est intellect of man would give way it _ is. What you and I see and hear of divine strength are only "parts of his woya. But how little a. portion in hard of Him! But the thunder of His power who can understand?" We try to satisfy ourselves with saying: "It is the natural law that controls things, gravitation is at work, centripetal and centrifugal forces re- lpond to each other." But what is a; unencct or man would give way it for a moment there came upon it the full appreciation ot what omnipotence me answering ot that overmmerin: quation. They finally concluded to (We the task to the younxeet man in the assembly, who happened to be Rev. George Gillespie. He con-exited to undertake it on the condition that they ttmt unite with him in prayer for di- vine direction. He began his prayer by "ytng, "O God, Thou art a spirit, in- thsite, eternal and unchangeahle in thy being wisdom, power, holiness. justice, toodness and truth." That first lent- ence of Gillesple's prayer was unanim- ously adopted by the assembly as the best definition of God. But, after all, " was only a partial success, and after everything that language can do when put to the utmost strain and all we can gee of God in the natural world and realise of God in the providentiai world we are forced to cry out with Job in my text: "Lo, these are parts of his way...

Bu§erstood being in the Bo, also, all systems of theology try l; tell us what is omnipretrenee--that is, God's capacity to be everywhere at I the same time. "Where is God?" said a. heathen philosopher to a Christian man. The Christian answered, "Let me flrat ask you where He is not?" The child had it right when asked how many Gods are there. and he answered, "One." "How do you know that?" he was asked again. He ans- wered, "There is only room for one, for he fills earth and heaven." An author says that it a man were set in the highest heavens he would not be any nearer the essence of God than, if he were in the center of the earth. I believe it. ld this divine essence does not reach all places, what use in our prayer, for prayers are being of.. fered to God on the other side of the earth as well as here, and God must be there and here to take supplics- tions which are altered thousands of miles apart. Ubiquity! No one has it but God. And what In elem to wickedness, on everywhere present God, how untgearehtOte are his judg- ments, and his ways past Bndintr out." The other author was the scientist who composed my text. I think he wrote it during a thunderstorm, for the chap- ter says much about the clouds and describes the tremor of the earth un- der the reverberations. God of the Bible appeared to Abraham was he tratistled, and his faith was so great that he was called "the Father of the Faithful." All that the theologi- ians know of God's wisdom is insig- nificant compared with the wisdom be- yond human comprehension. The hu- man race never has Fad and never will have enough brain or heart to measure the wisdom of God. I can think of only two authors who have expressed the ex- act facts. The one was Paul, who said: "Oh, the depth of the riches, both of the wisdom and knowledge of 1 A tradition says that Abraham of the Old Testament was when an in- fant hidden in a cave because of the persecutions of Nimrod. The first time the child came out of the cavern it was night, and he looked up at the star and cried: "Thia is my God," but the star disappeared, and Abraham said: "No, that cannot be my God." After awhile the moon rose. and Abra- ham said: "That is my God," but it set, and Abraham was again disap- pointed. After awhile the sun rose, and he said:: "Why, truly, here is my God," but the sun went down, and Abraham was saddened. Not until the on one hand and most powerful mic- roscope on the other. discovering in the plan of God not one imperfection. What but divine wisdom could have planned a human race, and, before it started. built tor it a. world like this; pouring waters to slake human thirst and ttiv- ing soils capacity to produce such food and lifting such a canopy ot clouds [embroidered with such sunlight and Isurroundlng the world with such won- ders that all the scientists of the ages have only begun to unroll them? But it is only the millionth part of that (wisdom that has come to mortal ap- preciation. Close next to every discovery is a wonder that has not been discov- ered. We see only one specimen among 10,000 specimens. What we know is overwhelmed by what we do not know. What the botanist knows about the tlower is not more wonderful than the things he does not know about the t1pwer. What the geologist knows about the rocks is not more amazing than the [ things which he does not know about them. The worlds that have been counted are only a small regiment of the armies of light, the hosts of heav- en, which have never passed in review before mortal vision. What a God we have! contrive a universe! Think of a. wis- dom that can learn nothing new, a wisdom that nothing can surprise. all the facts. scenes and occurrences of all time to come as plainly before it as though they had already trans- pired! He could have built all the material universe into one world and swung it a glorious mass through im- mensity, but behold his wisdom in di- viding up the grandeurs into innumer- able worlds, rolling splendor: on all sides. diversity, amplitude, majesty, infinity.' Worlds! Worlds.' Moving in complete radiance. Mightlest telescope So all those who have put together systems of theology have discoursed also about the wisdom of God. Think of a wisdom which can know the end from the beginning, that knows the thirtieth century as well as the t1rst century. We can guess what will hap- pen, but it is only a guess. Than of a mind that can hold all the past and all the present and all the future.' We can contrive and invent on a. small Beale, but think of a wisdom that could we get some little lden ot the di- l vino power when we see how it hurl“ the proudest cities and anions. An- I',,',:',',', Memphis it has ground up until many or its ruins ere no larger than your thumb nail and you can hardly thut a. souvenir large enough to remind you of your visit.

Babylon and l Nineveh are so blotted out of eint- ence that not one uninjured Mt of their ancient splendor remains. Noth- ing but omnipotence could have put them down and put them under. The arttediluvian world was able to send to the posvdiluvian world only one ship _ with a very small passenger list. Om- nlpotence ttrat rolled the Betta over the land, and then told them to go back to their usual channels as rivers and lakes and oceans. At omnipotent com- mand the water: pouncing upon their prey, and at omnipotent command slinklng back into their appropriate places.

But how little 8. portion is heard of him? But the thunder of his power who can understand?" It is not considered good form thus to remain covered while the National Anthem is being played. As the man came down the aisle he. had to pass Bishop Courtney. His Lordship look- ed at him with flashing eyes, and as he came alongside the bishop rose, and with indignation struck off the hat, saying as he did so, "You ought to be ashamed of yourself."

I think that is what gave that old Christian face af- ter death the radiant and triumphant look. Bo with that departing Chris- tian soul; the voyage of life has been long and rough and tempestuous; chilling sorrows have again and again snowed down upon him, and it is an Arctic Bea. Many clouds have ttlled the sky. It is approaching 12 o'clock, and the close of life's day. Friends stand around and count the parting moments. The clock strikes 12, and God breaks through the clouds and shines upon the features of the de- parting saint until they are transtlg- ured with the glories of the sun of righteousness. That is what has so changed the features of the old man. It is the shining of the midnight sun. KNOCKED THE MAN'S HAT OFF I now see you. It will not be with mortal eye that we will behold Him, but with the vision of a. cleansed, for- given and perfected spirit. Of all the quintillion ages of eternity to us the most thrilling hour will be the tlrtrt hour when we meet Him as He is. This may account for something you have all seen and may not have un- derstood. Have you not noticed how that after death the old Christian looks young again or the features re- sume the look of 20 or 30 years before? The weariness is gone out of the face: there is something strikingly restful and placid; there is a'pleased look where before there was a. disturbed look. What has wrought the change?; Only glimpses of God have we in this world, but what an hour it will be when we tlrtrt see him, and we will have no more fright than I feel when So every system of theology has at- tempted to describe and define the di- vine attribute of love. Easy enough is it to detlne fatherly love, motherly love, conjugal love, fraternal love, sisterly love and love ot country, but the love of God detles all vocabulary. For many hundreds of years poets have tried to sing it and painters have tried to sketch it and ministers of the gospel to preach it and mar- tyrs in the tire and Christians on their deathbeds have extolled it, and we can tell what it is like, but no one has yet fully told what it is. Men Speak of the love of God as though it were firttt felt between the pointing of the Bethlehem star and the pounding of the crucifixion hammer. But no! Long before that existed the love of God. the infinite. We feel as Job did after finding God in the gold mines and the silver mines of Asia, saying, "There is a vein for the silver and a. place for the gold where they fine it." And after exploring the heavens as an as- tronomer and tlndintr God in distant worlds and becoming acquainted with Orion and Mazzaroth and Arcturus and noticing the tides of the sea the inspired poet expresses his inca- pacity to understand such evidences of wisdom and power and says: "Lo, these are parts of " ways. But how little a portion is heard of him? But the thunder of His power who can understand?" of the storm thatiG" G Adiron- dacks. But we cannot swim across this Peet"'. The ttnite cannot measure a serenity, a tranquility, that nothing could upset. Would it make us (loamy? No, for God is the God of 'or and will augment our happiness. God in lull possession of us is a. thought out ot which you ought to make anthems and intwine garlands and kindle iiiuminntions. We have all been painfully reminded in our own experiences that we can- not be in two places at the same time. Madler, the astronomer, went on with his explorations until he concluded that the star Alcyone, one of the Plei- ades, was the center of the universe, and it was a t1xed world, and all the other worlds revolved around that world, and some thint. that that world, is heaven and God's throne is there,) and there reside the nations of the) blessed. But He is no more there than He is here. Indeed, Alcyone has been found to be in motion, and it also is revolving around some great cen- ter. But no place has yet been found where God is not present by sustain- his power. Omnipresence! Who fully appreciates it? Not I. Not you. Sometimes we hear him in a whisper. Sometimes we hear him in the voice Bun Christ, the atd'nlgg TGrTir, we are right with God, ought to give us an the coat you but a Aa; “okra; the "nlittht that shine. in your race.

During the past two years, not six people try word of month or by (note have said "Thank you" in re- (turn for favors received from this paper, or extended any courtesy in return. The politician has been help- ed through his election, his speeches (generally borrowed without credit from the colium'ns of this or some other paper) made the most of, his stapidities and banalities toned down, his blunders kept out of sight. Im- mediately afterwards, in matters concerning this paper with which he had no more to do than, the man in the moon, he has lifted up his mighty mouth and brayed at us from the house tops. When, tor this, we have clapped a firm rather than a gentle hand upon his classic lips and “choked him off," others, like him have arisen to charge us with being "quarrel- some‘" and with attacking ., our friends.“ And so it goes. So we suppose it will always go.
