THE LORDS SUPPER.

A Sermon Delivered In the First Presby-
terian Church, Camden, N. j., by the
Rev. ". ID. Reed, ID. ID.
DIR. Reed called attention last evening to the
words of our Saviour recorded in the sixth chap
ter OF the gospel by the EVANGELIST John and the
fiity-tbnd verse -" Verify, verify, say unto you,
except Se eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and
drink His blood, ye baVe no life in you"
The human mind in its present state is inclined to
two eX Xiremes-skepuclsm and credu ity. Both are
the legitimate offspring OF heart at enmtY with
God, and opposed TO the truth of His teaching.
There are some who will receive no religious doc.
-tTine wha ever evidences may be given of its truth
TO such persons everything must be brought within
the range OF the intellect before they are able to
comprehend, bough they believe thousand Chings
upon other subjects winch they do not fully COM
prehend. 10 other minds mysteries have peculiar
charm. Slmp!e truths that are perfectly nteligIble
and practicable are rejected, while hey choose mys
ticism readily. Statements per rfectly ABSURD and
contradictory are adopted wi hout evidence, solely
from love for the miraculous. There is Lo eVi-
dence that the words OF the text Tefe red to the
Lord's Supper Throughout the entire discourse
Chrst is speaking OF Himself in the form of bread
b. cad OF b1C-sOmeIhnR necessary to the sp ritual
well being of HIS people He said nothing about
this doctrine except here and now here else alluded
to il The doctrine that it applies to the Lords
supper is contrary TO reason.
The ROmanist doctrine implies that the body OF
Christ is in this, and at the same time in place
where the Eucharist Is Observed Nothing can be
more unreasonable. IL is contrary to the dictates
OF common sense. When Jesus performed the
miracle of satl tYing the hunger of the thousands
the multitude did not believe in Him. No one but
teecler sent from God could perform such a miracle
as this. "lhe Jews strove among themsslY

by the Rev. ii. $. Hoffman.
In the daily pape of Saturday 1T was announced
that the sui ject of "rho Devil of Revelations Xxx;
who and what he IT," would be the subject of dis
cussion Sunday evening, at the hall southwest
corner of Sixth street and Gnard avenue. The Rev.
H. s. Hohm oficiated on the OCCASION and,
without taking any particular text, dwet at great
length upon the subject announced.
He thought there was an i'm oeratiye necessity Tor
discussing the iulfment OF prophecy, and he did
not engage in 1t merely for the sake OF amusement
The people, generally were not Vely much 'eased
when the plain and simple truth was preached to
them. The type of Christianity which prevails at
the present day rests upOn mere traditions. The
people, when asked for the foundation of their
faith, 90 back and quote what was said by their
forefathers no matter how ia se ii may have been.
