REMARKS ON SERMONS -Many very good
people often do harm by thoughtless remarks
in going from Church. On one occasion gen
5tIeman, as he went out said, that was the best
Sermon ever preached in that church lady
Remarked, that was the gem of the season !;
and such like criticisms were heard. Now,
Ito minister of some years of ministerial ex.
perience, such remarks are idle as the wind,
stcr he knows they mean little or nothing. But
a young minister might be injured for life,
J by just such thoughtless expressions. We
remember once having heard young friend
from the seminary preach. 1t was his first
sermon. He preached with great fuepcy and
vast moderation, with occasional snatches OF
poetry from Pollok and Young. A lady, as
we passed out, very injudiciously said to the
student. that was splendid sermon, may
God spare you to the Church This young
brother actually conceived he was very
great preacher, shortened his course of study
In the seminary, and to this day he feels the
sad consequences Of that fulsome and ILL
timed t1attery. Let those who 20 TO the
house of God beware Of needless remarks
about the sermon. If people go away saying
that was a beautiful or splendid sermon it is
manifest that what ever the sermon might be
it has failed on them. Rather 90 from the
house Of God with prayer that the word
preached may be to you the power of God
unto savation-a SAVIOR Of life unto life, and
not SAVIOR OF death unto death. -Lutheran
Observer.
