mine, and shall show u unto you" The rev. |
srend speaker said the word Tin the text is In |
Italics, and Il seems strange that IL should |
have been inserted. The literal transla-
lion OF the original Greek would be "for he |
hall receive Of me and shew unto you"
The word show means 10 tell, declare openly, |
freely OF ernlnently. We sometimes speak |
Of the finished work Of Christ. That work Is
sven now incomplete, and must continue
10 be progressive.
There Is q future 10 the Church Of which
The present Is but twilight to the MONDAY
sun.
Our subject, continued the speaker, IL
capable Of two divisions. First, the person.
second, the work Of the holy spirit.
In the beautiful and appropriate language
Of the catechilm Of our Church there are
three persons In the Godhead, the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Chest.
The idea here 60 we'll expressed Il In ac-
cordanoe With the plan Of salvation as de.
yeloped In this 18th chapter OF John. The
Holy Ghost 10 oyerywhere spoken Of as q
divine person, and, Indeed, none but a divine
person could have undertaken 70 redeem a
lost race. We know that for this no man
nor angel could be sufficient.
Some have said there was q mathematical
lmposslblllty that there should be three per-
sons In one. This Is the revelation Of God
W hAnN Auu Nlhtn AuuNu III uhhutmAhlCas
We have each body, soul and spirit, three
In one. A burning taper has name, light
and heat, three In one. God reveals to US
what IL far beyond the ken of man. The
application OF the redemption work requires
q divine person called the spirit, and the
work OF the spirit IL 10 take Of tho things Of
Christ and show them to all the world.
The work OF the Holy Spirit 10 not 10 re-
veal any new truth, not TO add 10 nor take
from the scriptures. The work Of the spirit
Il defined by our Lord Jesus Christ and set
down by the apostles, and II We search the
scriptures we shall be led into the truth.
We are to be careful TO pray, act and walk
according to Gods holy word. Ny brethren,
read carefully the hrst nfteen verses Of this
10th chapter Of John, and mark we'll these
truths. Let US watch and pray over these
things. Men left TO themselves would mover
read the bible. There IL nothing In the
word Of God that would interest the carnal
man unless he Is enlightened by the Holy
Ghost. Christ ls the Precipitation Of sin.
This IL the cardinal point Of all preaching,
or should be. The work Of the Holy Ghost
IL TO glorify Christ In all his Offices, as he 10
now prielt upon his throne. What do you
propose to do for Christi What have you
ever done for hint Let this text decide.
Be In and with the Holy Ghost, Glorify
Christ by 50 living al to prove that saliva
ton Is In Christ, and that 10 him all fulnesS
dWells. / make, said the preacher, the fol-
lowing concluding observations
1. We may sec why so little impression Is
made, and so little good Is accomplished,
because We do not accept this truth as given
2. Correct views OF this doctrine will make
rs careful, watchful, prayerfnl, lest we sin
against the Holy Ghost.
8. The spirit, always present, helps our
inhrnlties and guides into truth, so that all
arc without excuse.
II We recsiVe these truths, we shall have
= treasure far beyond any riches which the
Wsrld can bestow.
