/ HIS cry Was, 'hepenC! LOT Jne Kingdom
of heaven is at hand?"
The whole community was aroused by
his appearance and his words 1t was
long since prophethad apppeared among
the people. His mission was to awaken
and arouse the sluggish and forgetful ma

gathered round him and listened withrapt
attention to his burning words. With
confession of sin, they sought to he 'bapt-

But John did not come to eXalt him
self, but to announce the coming Messi-
ah, one mightier than he. He was the
herald of a greater, and was satisfied to
prepare the way Of the Lord This
greater one was now to manifest himself,
and his first appearance was on the bank
of the Jordan, asking for baptism at
Johns hands. The Baptist, divinely in
structed, naturally and modestly shrank
from assuming this position towards him
! from whom he felt that it would be more
becoming in hims to receive that rite.
But Jesus felt that it was for him to set
an example of yhonoring the command
ments of God, and of obeying both the
spirit and the letter of the law, and so
received the ordinance from inferior
though authorized hands. .qr..-

manifestation OF the Holy Spirit as n wit

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
|. The first message of u Christian
tecaher is an awakening nles sage .,...
Men are slumbering in sin; they need
to be reused. They are insensible to
danger, and need to be alarmed. So the
gospel message is not cOuched in smooth
mellifuous phrases, but comes in earnest
and startling language: Awake thou
that sleepest, and arise from the dead
and Christ shall give thee light!'
2. The most earnt s. preacher will
have the most hearers. ,......
Who should be earnest, if not the
preacher of the gospel? His subject and
his object alike demand it. The great
salvation by the blood Of Christ; the lost
state of sinful men; the shortnesS of time
and the nearness of death, Judgment and
eternity, all conspire to make him earn
est.
All the world needs and demands earn
est men.
Drones in the pulpit will have sleepers
in the pew

point men to Christ. ...t,. .....
So John the Baptist considered it. He
might have led an enthusiastic following
and achieved great popularity. But it
