Discourse by the PastOr-Address ny A@eV'
ME-. De Forest on the Work i'm JaPAn.
Rev. DR.. HAYES at the forenoon service
yesterday gave one of his powerful and
uuickening sermons from the text, rye shall
know the truth, and the truth shall make
YOU free" Christ says, ST am the truth,
and in the thirty-sixth verse of this same
eighth chapter of John says: eff the son
therefore shall make you free, ye shall be
free indeed" Christ, said the speaker,
plainly teaches that all truth is embodied in
Christ. To know him is to know God, to
know ourselves, and to know all that is nee
esssry for us to know of the future. All
unbeiievers willingly and stubbornly shut
ont this fact from their minds. They
steel their hearts against the tn-
coming of this free and full reden1p-
ton from the power of Ignorance and sln
The truth stands knocking at the door of
our hearts. When admitted truth frees US
from sin, unhappiness, suffering and even
death ITSELF The freedom given to truth is
entire obedience to all the laws of God, with
power and will sanctifed and consecrated to
his service. Thus We are strong, useful and
attain unto happy immortal life. The ap-
peal of the pastor to embrace the new and
best life in Christ commanded the close at
tention and assent of a deeply interested au-
dience A brief statement of the work of
the A. NJ H. society at the taking of the
collection was made by DR.. Halves, and
notice of the afternoon address by Rev. Mr.
Deforest, missionary from Japan, formerly
from Mt Camel, CT, was given
Mr.. Deforest's address In the afternoon
was exceedingly interesting and eloquent.
The progress of Christian education in that
great nation of 36, 600, 600 during his nine
years residence is wonderful. The ma tive
scholars and teachers equal and excel those
of civilized nations --.-- 81 z1-

Salvation Army.

A Few Words by Pastor uoughton.
At the Church of the Messiah last evening
the Rev. Mr.. Houghton preached from the
text, "Work out your own salvation with
fear and trembling He said that every
good person should rejoice when mission
ary comes into our midst to proclaim the
word of God. In speaking of the Salvation
Army he said, 1 shall use them as Christians
in considering what moves their army on.
They make the claim that you must accept
salvation now or be lost forever. They como
and plead with sort of dazed look
on their faces trying to save the souls CT
men. Although they lack education no doubt
they are sincere in their work. They state
the logical conclusions of the preaching for
years. The preacher talks it in good rhetoric,
the other pounds it out on tambourines
This army may do good by shocking the
poorer class with their sins, but they are liza
BILE to make the cause a mockery. They may
do some good, but I think that they are scat
tering seeds of diseord. Salvation is not a
gift ; it is life and must be worked out by
ourselves. If we do not get it that way we
will not get 1t at all.
