Inga rne rst mark or divinity one would look for In
double aston wne Within The scsDs Of .h,nss that
related to mans Intelligence He would be very definite
there would be the outcroppnc consciousness OF HIS
divine nature. In the course Of the Saviours life
nothing was more striking than that His discourse
was very simple and yet, when ono roads the fourth
Gospel Of John, how He seems to talk above the heads
OF Hts disciples. In other words, there In
HIS person tho double nature--the human attrputes
overlyng the circumscriCed and parity cclipsed d.
vine nature-wo should expect that there would
flashing out OF that and there was continually The
the human-teaches that the occaslonai disclosure Of
the highest forms ol spiritual truth, but the dis
closure OF that IN mystyc way, u manner that no
man can preach or explore or mako definite These
two developments were just what We might expect
from that anomalous state OF existence which He IS
declared TO have neld-God-man. Christ came into
this world ana went back 10 the heavenly land In
order that every man, woman and child might there
alter ieel that they part parcel OF the
existence; and He vent up on high the forerunner
Of the human race.
the HIGHER INFLUENCE
Human life, the preacher sald, Is developed under
material laws, under social Influences in schools, In
famnes, In civil cducation ,nero is an element that
cd by tho visible and the physical in this fe but
tnat not the whole. Human life IL boing developed
also by an element from on high-invisible, impaipa-
BILE, but nevertheless influential The seed could not
grow without tho moisture and the earth about IL;
but II the earth Is the mother OF the plant the sun B
its royal father. So are subject TO climate and to
all physical influences bearing upon them, but tho
chief influence under which they are being developed
is the great sun Of righteousness IS the power OF
Goa, less because invisible, impalpable and SILENT
Krupp's great factory IN Germany, with It's 20 600
employees and its mighty machinery Changing and
roaring, has not one-mlllionlh part OF tho power
which the adjacent quiet meadows is silently and
invsiby swelling the grass and trees There is an In
huence call gravitation. Not leaf or particle OF
matter OF any kind IN the bowels OF the earth or in
the arr is hidden from its silent hand IN all tho
vast realm OF existence, and SO there is not living
creature that escapes from tho divine aud tho incvita
bio in the whole round OF human existence.
To sum up, Mr. Bcecher declared that we had then q
forerunner had gone out from US, and though wo
could tell what the precise steps that he takes
nor what the heavenly organism, II there bo such
u thing did know that Jesus our brother stands ut
the OF universal power 10 DO whatever neccs
sary to be done for each OF And We know the
great central powcr Of the universe Is Tor IS ours
II is busted u.s. and ness u be resisted and shut
out II will inevitably reclaim, fashion and complete u.s.
Mr.. Beechcr declared that the world was but few
lis existence, anu IL was gong on as God meant u
should, and all the and all tho stormy rolling OF
human lie tempestuous seas roll, casting up miro
earth in the long reckoning would be seen to have
their place and their function aud their meaning such
as interpret now. Tears fall unheeded TO-
day. said the preachcr but not tear but has func
tion. Ii sorrows conquer US to-day there Is not
sorrow but will be found one OF Gods architects.
All troubles tho preacher declared, were but so
schoomastors sent to educate the nascent race
which IS pressing its upward through the agos.
After all, he said, the spiritual power that works
toward purity, sweetness, light and JOY is vastly
greater than all the other powers put together II
does not show out to-day, because the world is so
young that effects not very strongly marked;
but in the ages II will appear The preacher ended
with an exhoraton TO follow The teach
ngs OF the Saviour. VINO stood beckoning and calling
