 Her father despises the Christian religion; her mother despises the Christian religion; her brothers and sisters scoff at the Christian religion; she can hardly find quiet place in which to say her priyers: Did she find It smooth sailing when she tried to follow Jesus Christi Oh, no! All who would live the life of the Christian religion must suffer persecu- tion; If you do not find it in one way, you wn get it in nS1her way ,o. The GgsstG1n t1s thropef7 And the answer came back: :: ''These arc they who came up out of great tribulation-great failing, as the original has 1t; great failing, great pOunding-and had their robes washed and made white in the blood of the lamb." Oh, do not be disheart- eompanionship. God will see you through all trials, and he will deliver you. My sub ject also impresses me with the fact that good people sometimes get very much fright ened.
 In the tones of these disciples as they rushed into the back part of the boat, find they are frightened almost to death. They say, s'Master, carest thou not that we perish P They had no reason to be frightened, for Christ was in the boat. Oh, how many good people are afrighted by iniquity in our day, and think the church of Jesus Christ Is going to be overthrown, and are just as much shrighted as were the disciples of my text. Don't worry, don't fret, as though iniquity were going to triumph over righteousness. A Hon goes into a cavern to sleep. He lies down with bis shaggy mane covering the paws. Meanwhile the spiders spin a web across the mouth of the cavern and say: "We have captured him." Gossamer thread after goss mer thread, until the whole front of the cavern is covered with the spiders web. and the spiders say: 1.-The lion is done; the lion is fast.1 After a while the lion has got through sleeping; he arouses himself. he shakes his mane, and walks out into the sunlight, he does not even know the spiders web Is spun and with his voice he shakes the mountain. So men come spinning their sophistries and srepticism about Jesus Christ; he seems to bs sIeeping.
