Braadytome Methodist Church. On Sun
day evening last, Rev. T. Is. Hunter, pastor
Of the Brandywine Methodist church deliv-
cred sermon from the text of St Matthew,
l3ch., 81 vs.. The field is the world He
said, in his discourse, that this was part of
the parable Jesus spoke to the multitude,
where the enemy came and sowed tares in
the held while those who had sown the wheat
were asleep. The wheat, represents the
children OF the kingdo I, the tares, the chill
dren OF evil; the angels are the reapers-
Our characters in this life. are moulded for
me Future. We are placed here to develope
character late to US is important We
but, we are destined to live forever. The
il;mortal spirit never dies. 1t is only the
clay tenement that dies. God has placed us
IN the world just as the seed are deposited
IN the soil. He has placed our destiny in
our hands Every word we speak is like
ripple which goes on the opposite shore. =
Not single atom Of matter is struck uut of
existence The particles OF to-day are as
Old as the world. They are only changed in
form. Every particle is in constant motion. |
The expansion Of the rails ON the railroad in |
summer and their contraction in winter is |
noticed al ths joints, so also, with the tire Of
a wheel when the blacksmith puts il on,-I
the particles or atoms in the rail or tire are |
the same. only having been affected by the |
temperature, Influences which we put in |
operation, are intended TO last rs long as |
time. God has constituted us capable OF |
high degree Of development. This life is |
probationary state-the training school for |
either home in heaven or To he driven |
from the presence Of God He has not
made our salvation depend on the amount of
knowledge We possess or our intellectual
capacity Or power; but, upon simply trust
ing to the principle Of faith in Christ God |
has given part OF His spirit to every man
10 profit thereby. No man lives in course
OF SIN but who Is conscious Of the fact so
that II the line be drawn, he could tell on |
which side belonges Not one can plead |
Ignorance on this score.
