MORE GOOD ADVICE.
Again. my text has good advice concerning
any Christian hampered and bothered and
bound by fear OF his own dissolution. To
such the Book refers when it speaks Of those
who through fear OF death were all their
lifetime subject TO bondage. The most of Us,
even il We have the Christian hope are cow
ards about death. II plank fall from a
scatfolding and just grazes our hat how pale
we look. II the Atlantic ocean plays with
the steamship. pitching it toward the heavens
and letting il suddenly drop, how even the
Christian passengers poster the steward or
stewardess as TO whether there is any danger,
and the captain, who has been all night on
the bridge and chilled through, coming IN
for cup of coffee is assailed with a whole
battery Of questions as 10 what he thinks of
the weather. And many of the best people
are. as Paul says, throughout their lifetime
in bondage by fear OF death. My brothers
and sisters, il we made full use Of our re-
Hgion we would soon get over this.
Backed up by the teachings Of your
Bible, jus. look through the telescope some
bright night and see how many worlds there
are and reflect that all you have seen, com
pared with the number Of worlds in exist
ence, are less than the fingers OF your right
hand as compared with oil the fingers of the
human race. How foolish, then, for US TO
think that ours is the only world fit for US to
stay in. Think that all the stars are inhabited
ond by beings Like the human race in feelings
and sentiments, and the difference is in lung
respiration and heart beat and physical con-
formation, their physical conformation lt
for the climate OF their world and our phys
ical conformation tit for tho climate Of our
world. So we shall feel at home in any OF
the stellar neighborhoods, our physical limi-
tations having ceased. One of our first reali-
zations in getting out OF this world, think,
will be that in this world we were very much
pent up and had cranped apartments and
were kept on the limits The most even OF
