WEST FuarY-sscoxu STREET PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

Sermon by Rev. ID. A. Brigg.
At half past seven O'Clock last evening the above
named church was literally packed with people
to listen to the discourse Of Rev. D. A. Brigg who
took for his text the words found in the sixth verse
OF the fifteenth chapter OF Genesis. The discourse
the relation Of faith to daily life and work.
and IT'S Importance as help IN the divine life. He
said the most Important and fundamental
principles OF faith were found eXempli6ed IN the
life OF him who was justly termed the .Father OF the
faithful" The Apostle Paul In the Episte to the
Hebrews, showed how, by faith. Abraham left the
land OF his birth and set out for the land which God
had given him. How, by faith, he overcame all the
difficulties OF his journey; how, bv faith he Overcame
in that land and In the Egvplian court,
ana how his faith was severely tested by the CON-
mand OF God to offer up mis- only son as q sacrifice
on the altar The character of Abraham, trusting as
he aid with chlldllke confidence in his God, and
pleading with Him for the salvation Of his fellow
man. is an example of the faith which we should
exercise, and was one OF the nObest records in the
history OF the world OF the firm reliance OF
the human soul upon the promises OF God.
In this phase OF his character as in his remarkable
OF the Goldman Christ Jesus, whom he resembled In
lesser degree. God was to HIM what Jesus Is to
US, ever watchfu over our best interest aud merc-
iu, lenlent IN our weakness and faings.
The, promises OF God to Abraham were un-
doubleday the basis OF all his future deal.
ngs with mankind The preacher then went
on to describe faith as living tie that binds hui
mainly to God. BY IT, and by 1t alone. could the
deep shadow OF the valley OF death, through which
all mankind must pass, be brldged, and by Its sub
possess foretaste OF the everlasting blessedness
which awaits the followers OF the truth. He closed
with an eloquent eXhortaton to all present to cuti-
vate the faith In the atoning blood Of our Saviour.
