Speaking of the cholera there, he stated
that on last Thursday. the day be left.
there was not known case OF cholera
either in New York, Jersey City or Brook

this country are on board Of the ships
and on islands forty 10 one hundred
miles away from the cities. The people
OF New York know nothing about
the cholera and don't worry themselves
about it. All they know of cholera is
what they see in the papers coming from
other parts of the country. The few iso-
lated cases which were found up in the
northern portion of the city some time
ago did not create any excitement and the
effect of the scare on business in general
has been very slight. The board of health
has been very rigid III maintaining strict
sanitary regulations, and every street and
walk in New YORK have been thoroughly
washed, and the cleanliness of that city is
very noticeable 10 strangers The board

TAREkNACl.E MEETINGS

Sunday, II a. ~, Rev. Martin preached
a clear and strong sermon on Christian
Perfection" The Bible speaks OF periac-
tion in more than forty-five different
places. What is Bible perfection and how
to obtain it, Negative side: % Bible per
lection lot absolute perfection: absolute
perfec ion is that to which nothing eau be
added and from which nothing can be
taken away. applies only to God, not TO
angels nor man. (2) Bible perfection not
angelic perfection, angels wholly spiritual
man spiritual and corporeal; man not
angel nor can be; redeemed. soul-washed
and made clean in the blood of the Lamb,
more blessed than to have the form or be
An angel. 80 Not Adamic perfection;
Adam had primitive holiness, ours impart.
ed perfection by Christ; Adam had mind
superior to any since the Fell; we can
have heart perfect as Adam. % Not
physical perfection: some of the brightest
and hottest men constant physical suffer
ers with the body free from sin, for the
body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. 81
Not intellectual perfection; many have
perfect hearts but crooked heads. 90 Not
legal nor absolute obedience, because our
knowledge not absolutely perfect; but
rightness of heart. O. Not invaluable per-
lection; perfection not free from
temptation; tell me how per-
feet man can be tempted; tell
me how adam and Christ was tempted
and l will tell you how His children are
tempted in this world. Man who has
holiness is orthodox TO the core. (S) Can
fall from grace. can guard against it by
prayer and trust in the power OF God to
keep positive perfection. O. Perfect heart
perfectly cleansed. washed, purged from
all sin. "Pure love reigneth alone in
pure heart" QD Pertains TO quality not
quantity; a chip from pure large white
OAK tree is the same quality as chip from
pure small white oak tree. You can be
perfect Christian on earth with perfect
love-God's love poured into your little
heart is the same quality as dweils in His
big heart.
