I.-ALL TRUE TEACH ERS.

In taking account of the Chrlstian's

wealth, Paul makes, a large place for all' true teachers. “Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas." 'l‘he completely universal mind is the Christian mind. Vlherever truth is,-in any realm of being, there the Christian has a chal- lenge to. gird up his mental lolns for conquest. For truth is not isolated, local, fragmentary; truth is an unprej- udiced as the sun, as calm as the ever- lasting hills, ns unconilned as the ether. All that truth requires to make its home in a personality is a pure heart, a hungry mind and an obedient will. This is all, 1 say, but it is every- thing. Wherever you ilnd purity of heart, intellectual integrity and un- swervlng obedience to the highest. you invariably find a combination of qualities possible only to the soul that is living out the reality of the inliving Christ. He- is the owner of all truth- bringers. He says: “Paul, with his immortal cargoes of truth, outward bound from the coasts ot’ eternity, is mine; but Paul was so heavily freight- ed,t.hat he could not bring all of my wealth to me. So God sent me an- other consignmentby Apollos; and lo! when the good ship Apollos arrived, loaded to the water’svedge, I found that there was still more to come. Looking again toward the sea of truth I beheld (Jephas sailing direct to my spiritual port. Then, after all had come ashore, Captain Paul gathered us about him and said: “Brethern, we have brought you some nuggets from the-mines of truth; we have sailed the oceans of mystery to deliver our pre- cious freight at your doors ;_ but there is so much more behind. so much that He who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, desires to send you, that lir- has chartered all noble spiritual craft to ply between }Ilm and your souls. One may be Paul, another Apollos, and another Cephas; but the names are less than the truth they bring. All true teachers are your servants, or- dained by the God of nature and of grace to enrich you;all-all are yours, and ye are Chrlst's, and Christ‘s is God’s_ "

Unfortunately, many Christian peo-

ple fall far sh_ort of Paul’s standard in measuring their wealth. We are tempted to lease too many oi the t1'uth's domains to error, unbelief and infidelity . We cut our vast spiritual estate up into cross lots and say: "This belongs to science, this to phil- c-srphy. this to art, sud that to the ~vo:?rl.' Have we not o. fatal nenius for mnlfeshifts? Do wc- not glory in our span-high artiflcislltv? Nc-w, I"sul's attitude is opposed to nil this. lic was a spiritual statesman claiming the universe as his own. lie r-efmuefl

Christ restores man to his true order and heirship in the worlds and ages. Consequently, Paul seems to ' say: "Hold up every true teacher coming your way and shake the°truth out of him. At first he may be loath to part with his truth, but stand pleluiingly by until he imparts what is rightful- ly your own also.”' If only we are in Christ and Christ in us, we may be- comiugly way lay every truth-brlnger from Moses to Paul. from Plato to Darwin-relieve him oi his gleaming treasure without pauperlzing him, and `go on our way rejoicing, because we are as sure of being guided into all truth as we are that "the innocent moon, which nothing does but shine, moves all the laboring surges of the world." We must have more of Paul's catholicity and mental ampleness, which is the fruit of genuine Christian faith. Breasting the stream of the years unafraid, he is ever /searching the floors of the spiritual deeps for new pearls of truth. He has ceased to glory in men because he has seen the glory of God. No longer interested in . building disturbing fences around sec- tarian gardens, he delights in couhtingi, the star-panels that fence in his shin- ing worlds of beauty and love. Own- ing the solar years of_time and the dateless eras of eternity, the Christian also owns Paul, and Apollos, and Cep- has and all truth bearers from all realms.

ll-THE WORLD.

His Christ, Paul puts in a second claim of the Christian. He says that “the world” is his also. Such a. statement. must he carefully scrutinized, various kinds of people have imagined that they owned the world, but somehow it always slipped out ot' their uncertain grasp. Our very myths,, zlnd even his- tory itself, are shot through the claims of llcitlous world owners. In child- hood we hear of Midas and Croesus; of the world conquerers Alexander, Caesar and Napoleont of the kings of finance, whose morning steps in Wall Street shakes the markets of the world before sundown. Ou the other hand. we are familiar with another type of world-owner today. His claims are blatantly pressed in many quarters. lie is the Judas among the apostles of labor. Ile says: “Everything belongs to the working man; he is the only creator of wealth; therefore, let him take a stick of dynamite and claim his own. “But it is scarcely worth while to say that neither Croesus, nor the tryrant nor the anarchist, has any permanent or true claims to world- ownership. Both in theory and in prac- tice they are its abject slaves. Well, then, have Paul and his fellow-Chris- tions any deeper, juster reasons for saying: "Millionaires, kings and rcvo- lutlonists may come and go, but I go on forever; and whether I go or come, the world is mine?" 1 think there is an affirmative answer to this proposi- sion which is self-evident. It is the ultimate philosophy -af all posscrlsion worthy of the name. What is that philosophy? You know the :1us.ver beffzre I express it in -.1 single sen-, tence: Vvorld ownemllsp is s. mattcr of spiritual capacity. lt fs this, holli- iizg more, but noihiul: less.

"Why," you say, “thei merchant-prince whose money made it possible. The building is his; his ,money paid the manufacturer for in- istalling the organ; his money hires' »tl1e organist." As a matter of fact, your answer is truc, so far as it goes, but it docs not go very far, certainly not far enough.

This sermon was written on Mock-

lng Bird Hill, overlooking Louisa. Ky., my boyhood home. Sitting under it hawthorn tree, the feathered soloslstn almost broke up my sermonic efforts. For the mocking bird is a Beethoven on wings. the Shakespeare of thel lwlss. the Homer of the atmosphere. He goes mad with song.. Not only does his voice pour forth a many- strained versnllty, embracing every- klnd oi’ song. from the croak of rt tree-frog to the lyric sweetness of the Kentucky cardinal; but even his body and he tosses rhytmic somerssults in the air while his golden rain of song falls in unbroken torrents..

“l caught him; he is my property; I have the right to do as I please with him." But there was once a man down in the forests of Louisiana by thc name of Audubon. Ile lived in those woods year after year, He understood not only the anatomy of the bird, but hc knew his habits, his social qualit- ies, hlsg romances, his tragedies, his devotlonio his winged partner. Audu- bon loved the mocking blrdand heard him sing in his native haunts. There- fore he has written about him as en- thusiastically as the woocr sings his own dropping song in the delicious per- iod of his honeymoon. Who owns the bird songs of the hills-the mere mer-

,chant or the true naturalist? Who

owns the world-Nero or Paul, Caesar or Christ? Long years ago the dead hand of the llomans relaxed its im- possible grasp, while the living pow- er of Christ and Paul waxes with the centuries. Neveer to wane, God leases the universe to all who can pay for it in the invisible coin of appreciation. Deity hangs in the window of every star, on the breast of every sea, on the summit of every hill, on the leaf of every tree, on the face of every iiower, on the peaks oi’ history, on the souls of immortal men and women, the sign: “To let! The only rental fcc is capacity to enjoy. The mauy-splon- dored universe is now open for iu- spection _ The ancient, ever-faithful guide named love will conduct you Ile accepts no tips but he rigidly de- mands thc power of appreciation."

ill-LIFE `

ln iteniizing the Christian's wealth,

Paul includes what is at once mau’s most precious, most mysterious glft- lifc. What is life? Who can defiuc it? Manifestations of lifc are cvcrywhero. llcrc is this clover bloom‘ at my feet; life has put on a pink crown. Yonder is n. cow munching the grass; the same life that wears pink here has put on yellow thcrc. There on the hill sum- mit is a company oi' tall, evergreen pines. Each ircc is a buglc i'or the morning wind to try its brcaihon. A few hundred yards below the pines a hound is tracking a rabbit. ln the tree life has broken into root, cone, branch, twig; in the dog, the very same life has put on bones, flesh, blood. hair. l am sitting on a stone. It was very old when civilization along the Nile was yet in its infancy. From thc stone I see the sun tiptoeing over the West Virginia hills. The sun is 05,000,000 miles away; thc stone is so'near that l touch it with my hand; but life-,ihc snmcldeutical. mystery laden lifc--has taken on brightness in the sun whllc it has assumed hardness in the stone. llere on this weed is u butterfly, es- caped irom its chrysalis prison into quivering seas of sapphire. its color- lugs are so gorgeous that that supreme artist, the sun,shakes his burning curls with pride and says: "Well, I have done my best!" Now thc butterfly has left the weed and is poised upon thc small apple of this hawthorn tree. Yet the life that goes winging in velvet and purple is also the life that goes clinging in unpretentious weed and apple green haw. There goes an ant across the green. Darwin thinks his brain represents the most marvelous speck of matter in the universe. Just over my head a spider is spinning his web. lie is one of the rare creatures who can walk out into spucc andbulld his bridge as he goes. But. the same life that cxprsses itself in the wisdom of that ant is one with thc life flint manifests in the iuguuity of the spider. Life has millions of variations, but its tune ls one. Before science bc- gnn its great career, Paul thus ex- pressed the principle of lii`e's unity in its infinite vnrity: "One God and Father of all, who is ovcr all, and through all and in nil." l’rofessor (‘.arruth's poem, “Immanencc," is bas- ed upon this passage:

, IV.-DEATH

Paul strikes no loftler note in his

sphere»music- than in his ownership of death. Most peopletaet as if they be- longed to death and his strong box named a hole in the ground. Two thou- sand years of New Testament teach-

ingxeiuforcil by the power of the liv- ing Christ, ave failed to lift multi- tudes of professing Christians above such a viewpoint. They emphasize the grotesque, pagan, physical phases of death; but Christ puts the emphasis upon the kind of death that is truly terrible-the death spiritual. Men greatly fear the death of tnir bodies, which is as natural as the fading ofa leaf or the withering of s iiower, and give as little heed to their dead souls as an animal does io the star-hung ilrmament_ Physical death. according to Martineau, is God's method of col- onization, the means by which He brings home His children, out of all ages and climes. Euripedcs regarded death as the awakening to eternal life. Or we may think' oi' man as enjoying a threefold birth. First, he comes through the wondrous gntcwoy of birth into the world. Ile knows nothing of his journey here; he is no more re- sponsible for it than he is for the cre- ation of the constellations. But.. igno- rant, irresponsible as he is, he finds a world ready for his reception. There is atmosphere _ for his womb-formed lungs, light for his eycs, sound for his ears, food for his body and, last of all, the enclasping arms of matern- al love. Infinite preparations has been made i'or his reception. As quaint, deep-souled George Ilcrbcrl sang for him the winds do blow, ruins full, moons rise, suns set; all forces and laws ure for him; he could not get on with an atom less, nor it still' lll0!‘€. TUG `whcle universe, says Alfred Russell Wallace, has been creatcd and is sus- tained in the interest of human life. Moses and cthcr prophets said the same thousands of years before, und it is interesting to hear this great. scien- tist repeating what the deepest con- sciousness ofthe race has felt. But af- i.er awhile this star-reaching being climbs over the sides oi' his cradle and begins to scale t.he cliffs ni' worlds. Stifled for breath, cramped for room. hungry for the infinite, he goes climb- ing up and on. What troubles this mystery creature? Why, he is just ach- ing jor his new and second birth. Look- ing to the Christ of God, he is born again. Thus the man-child kicks off his material ccvering,leaps out oi' his nar- row bed, ruus up the hills of lifc and views the far-flung, shining lands of God. Passing through his second gate with tho zeal oi' an athlete and thc shout of n conqueror, hc knocks at last at his third gateway~tlic grave. ln autumn thc farmer husks his corn that he may garner tho golden grain. But is the farmer thc <"oru’s enemy? Stripping cii' thc husks, is hc not both friend and saviour? Not otherwise is death God's hushandman, husklng the human corn for sky granarles; n1an’s true friend, giving his body back to the dust uud setting free his soul. Standing by six feet of turf, the Chris- lian says: “O gravc, where is thy victory? Sincc my Saviour has pluck- cd out thy sin-sting, O death, thou hast lost thy terror. Ah dear green gravc in the sod, ` iho\1 are my friend and servallt, all things work together for good to them that lovc Cod, and thou art my last faith- ful worker in this world. O dcnlli, thou too, are mine! Come‘whcu thou wilt thou art Ilcaven‘s nngcl-sent' cou- rier to conduct mo to Him who hath destroyed death, and brought lilo and immortality to light.”

V-NOW AND FOREVER

' Finally Paul rounds out the Chris- tian’s wealth by saying that now and forevcr belong to him, “things present. or things to como.” The woods thun- der with \v‘arning and thrill with hope. The warning is this: Things to como are yours only if you make wlsc use of things present. it is worse than folly to waste unreiurning todays and

The home of Mauoah was childless. 1

This was a condition the sadness oi; which Mauoali keenly fell. One dav.§ however, thc wife broke thc news to? Manooh that they were i.0 have a child. and hinted thc necessity of great cure ; on their part for this chlid's sake.; Noic the thought which now found it ' place in the heart of this man who was I to become a father. This was the con- ' slant cry of his lionrt, “0h, Lord, . . . teach us what we shall do unto thc , child that shall be born?" This was the right time to begin to think of that ` child’s welfare, before. his birth. This , was the right cry for the parent io i send up to honveu, "Lord, teach us." ;

Would that every man and womanj might feel the responsibility of par- enthood and sock to know how to dol justice to their children bcforc lhcyl are born.

When thc angel came and Manoah learned that it was the messenger, for whom ho had prayed, the question l which was on his mimi instuntlyl found expression. lic seemed possess- l cd of this one _idea--what should they do for the sake of their child? And this, mark you, was long before that child was born. What a transforms-I tlo_n would be wrought in the world, and in the next generation, li the youths of today would ever hear in mind their duty to the children that are to be. How differently they would shape their lives. What follies they would avoid. For temperance in the New Testament plainly means more than abstinence from the wiuc cup; It moans abstinence from everything

that hurts oneself and' others. '
