He was much temt ed and tried. yet he never despeired. ` ~ e fell under the power of sin, but he rose from his downfells only more deeply convinced of hie own weakness. and more determined to hope in the Divine mercy. ` ` nun tlsnnn nnumandnnd nylsink Qnsenk -.I:l\\ Ill IIIIU IIIVIIIO LIIGIUJ was these su'eriugs'whIoh taught -him; to sing in such a strain as he does in this ` Psalm.

Ill Wle IJIDIIIIK PIUVUC tlllle . .Nor in saying this do I forget the place and the `power of the gospel of `peace. War makes way for the gospel It is often the precursor and only preparation for peace. The power of thegospel is not hindered by righteous war ` it is the ploughshare of God which prepares the nation for the entrance of the gospel. When this war is over the Boers will understand the gospel of peace better than they do now, though our mission aries have been soldiers The songs and re- joicing of emancipated people will rise from the blood stained battleelds of this war When wrong is triumphant, when unjust `power tramples the innocent under its feet. when cruelty shielding itself under the name of religion sets up its rule. and seeks to ex tend it over free men. then everyman who loves freedom, and `who loves his country, and who would maintain that power which protects him, that power which gives justice to every.man who comes `under its sway, will not hesitate to draw the swo d to lay low the proud usurper. at the root of the position of our country now. We conten against unscrupulous men who have misle the people. No one who knows the horrors of war can glory in it. Peace should be maintained if possible without "having recourselto it. It is in the hope `that bymeans of it peace may be established on a basis that will be secure and lasting, that it is entered upon. It is not possibleat pre- sent to re resstthe warlike feelings of the people. ut we who preach the gospel should seek to moderate them. Nothing will arouse us to a realization of what war involves so much as the suffering which it is now bringing to our homes. This ought to soberus. This ought toteach us how great the `issues are for which , we are lighting. This ought to bring those `of us who stay at home more into sympathy with the men who - go out to die for us, and with their families` who share with them the great sacrice While on the eld of battle they endure all manner -of suering and hardships, we at home ought to lay aside our frivolities, and in runs Isnsvsh Ifn mks-ans -n-iinoieinn A` that That 1 ta e to be them` no much for IIIFIIIU IIUSIIU UV IF ZWIIIT `(KI IIIVUIIUIWC, ZIIK in our home life show something of that sell-denial. fchst earneuuneu, that heroism. which our brothers and our Ions no showing on the field of war, and `which we praise . p ` IIIL- ___--l__-_ __.!j AA}- !- - ._I-_-____ `L2,, -_ ` have 'said"l1'as not `changed my conviction in `the slightest that the position which our country has taken isairightous one, and one which the V judgnfent of - the` future `will vin'dlcat.e_ War undertaken for the aggran disement 0! our country. or for taking the territory of other peoples, could not be. supported -by the Christian conscience. , But this war is not waged for such ends -It is waged for the establishment of righteousness in the government of the various racesvinp Africa ; for the extension of human libertv. and for the overthrow of the oppressor. These are suds which justify war. It is" in this conviction we have gone into it. It is in this conviction we will persist in it throuuh all reverses to the end War is a dreadful. instrument of God for the accomplishing of his purposes It is an instrument which involves frightful suffer- ing for both of the contending peoples. There enters into it much of human "passion". and human wickedness. but there enters into it also. much `oi what -is highest and noblest in human nature, and in its bloody oonicts the world's noblest deeds are done.
