GOD WORKING THROUGH MEN.

Rev. S. w, McCorkle Tells What A1exan-
der's Conquests Did for Christianity.
Rev. S. W. McCorkle yesterday morning
preached q beautiful sermon at the First
Congregational Church, Allegheny, from
the words: 1--WE know that all things work
together for good to those who love God;
and to them who are the called according to
His purpose. He said:
"This text, like the tops of the noun
tains, has its own atmosphere. We will be
helped in understanding the text in consid-
ering what ends God has in view in working
in and for u.s. The intent or aim of human
life, considered from Gods standpoint, is
that intent which is revealed to us in His
words. He seeks to produce in us purity of
heart as opposed to corruption and sinful
ness; strength of heart; sanctified courage,
and a Christian disposition. We may well
believe that God 1abors to produce in us
these qualities. Subtract these qualities
and what have you left?
''The text refers to national as well as in
diyidusl life, for God works on the larger as
we'll as on the smaller plane. 1t was dar-
ing project for Philip of Macedon to over
run Greece, but it was still greater one for
Alexander to cross the Hellespont and rear
a magnificent empire, which should extend
from the western boundary of Greece to the
heart of Asia on the east. The great empire
fell into hopeless fragments when Alexan-
der died, but what had he unwittingly done?
He had planted Greek culture in the East,
given a degree of unity to Eastern Europe
and Western Asia, made pathways for the
first Christian missionaries, given the Greek
tongue as a common vehicle for the dissent
nation of the gospel. and had founded the
city of Alexandria as depot for universal
commerce, which later became the great
center of Jewish learning, the place where
the Septusgint version was made.
"Do second causes or things from man
work together for our good? Is mans
treachery, deception, cruelty and injustice
to be ranked among the all things of the
text? Yes, these to the believer are under
Gods control. His presence, like body
of light, surrounds us, and no hatred or
aff1iction, or anything in the category of
human ills can touch so as to hurt the weak
est of His children.
"We shall be lost in amazement unless
we look at the doctrine of this text in the
light of two worlds. In the manufacture of
the gobelin tapestries, the most costly and
splendid work of its kind in the world, the
workman is concealed from view. Though
you cannot see the artist, if you watch
the warp, you will see coming into view the
most gorgeous colors and the elegant shad-
ing OF the work, and at last there stands out
before you finished picture. So does God
work out His sublime purpose of wisdom
and love. We have no evidence of His
presence and agency but the work itself.

a TIDE THAT LEADS TO FORTUNE.
Lost Opportunities re LearnedIy Discussed
by Rev. DIR. Sutherland


by Rev. DIR. Sutherland.
Dr. Sutherland, speaking on 'Iost OPP
portunities" at the Second PRESBYTERIAN
Church, yesterday, said: "There is not q
great nation of ancient or modern times,
now living simply in name, whose decline
and fall cannot be clearly and distinctly
traced TO a failure to take advantage of
some supreme opportunity afforded it in the
providence of God to prove its right to con-
tinued existence. do not believe that a
nation ever existed that has not had its tide
which if taken at the flood would
have led on to permanence and in
creaslng power. The ancient Jewish
nation is 4 conspicuous example of the
folly and fate of a nation that peglects its
opportunity. Such an opportunity France
had at the time of the Revolution of en-
braclng purified faith and so Kidding her
self forever of blind superstition on the
one hand and hopeless atheism on the other.
But these opportunities come to indiyid-
uais as well as nations-special opportuni-
tles, as we say. Some of them come
through descent. through pious ancestry and
the salutary influence of Christian homes,
Again there are opportunities that belong
10 certain periods of life. There is, for ex-
ample, the season of youth which is emphat-
lcally the golden period of life and the
season peculiarly favorable for obtaining an
interest in the rich blessings of the gospel
There is day of grace for all men. 1t is a
Gay OF opportunity which, to those who do
not improve it, will end in night of gloom
and despair. But to those who do improve
1t its golden setting will be but the promise
and prophecy of the brighter dav in the
brighter realm where there is no night nor
shadow of gloom TO dim its glory

INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE,
Rev. George I. Purves Says the Apostles
Were Like Poets.

Rev. George I. Purves Says the Apostle.
We're Like Poets.
Rev. George T. Purves, of the First Pres.
byterian Church, preached last evening on
"Inspiration of the Bible" He said: tsThe
belief of past years in regard to the in.
spired writers of the Bible was
that they were temporarily de-
prived of their human faculties
and were simply the mechanical means of
divine power. But this belief is scarcely
entertained in these later DAYS. Their in
spiration was that of poet, who sees in
the simplest things of nature great truths,
which ordinary men fail to discover. This
is the true conception of the inspiration of
the Apostles, who, by the peculiar circum-
stances among which they were placed.
were enabled by the exercise of their hu,
man faculties to grasp truths unseen by
others Their writings are human as well
as divine.
We believe the Bible inspired BY God be.
cause Christ told the people to be guided by
it. We believe in the divinity of Christ
because he was raised from the dead. If he
had not been, why would his religion sur
yiye his death?

same cause, a drouth in the Nile
country, would produce a famine in
the adjoining country of Canaan.
Referring to the story of Joseph,
the minister described his emotions at meet
ing and recognizing his brothers who had
sold him into slavery when he was a boy,
and now that he was governor OF great
country, they came to him, sprawled them
selves before him in supplication and knew
him not. How he controlled his feelings
and for time tormented their minds, until
he had satisfied his mild revenge on them,
and then revealed himself His subsequent
forgiveness and kindness to them showed
the greatness of the man and the Christian
spirit that he exhibited through his life,
which made him such worthy example for
emulation

BEAUTIES OF THE GOLDEN RULE.
DR.. McCle,lsnd Wants to See 1t Applied in
Everyday Life.

DR.. McClellAnd Wants to See 1t Applied in
Everyday Life.
Rev. Henry T. McClelland, D. D., made
the practical application of the Golden
Rule the subject of an interesting sermon
at the Bellefeld Presbyterian Church last
night. In his discussion he said:
This is handy rule for the uses of
everyday life. The measure by which our
treatment of others is to be graduated is our
own self-love. We are not to consider how
others have done to U.S. We are not to i'm
agine what they would do to us under the
circumstances, but to do in all the ordinary
transactions OF life as we would be done by.
It is not hard to see that this Golden Rule
is the practical application of that part of
the great law of love which enjoins, Thou
shall love thv neighbor as thyself, and we
are to remember at the same time that the
man with whom we are dealing or upon
whom we are acting is considered by our
Lord as our neighbor.' There is no man
upon this footstool of God who may not be-
come your neighbor or mine to whom by
this Golden Rule we are bound to do as we
would be done by.
''The glory of this rule is that it empha-
sizes the brotherhood and the equal rights
of men. I an poor, but 1 am to use the
rich as 1 would be done by. am rich, but
1 am 10 use the poor as would be done by
if were poor.
''Without speculating about the diff
culties OF some future emergency begin at
once in your own home or lodging place,
store or Office to use superiors, interiors or
equals as you would be done by, and so
fulfil this law of Christ. If you have the
mind to do this-tbank God, it is the spirit
of Christ, which is>also the spirit of wis
dom-for like begets like, and he who day
by day does as he would be done by will
find others applying the same rule, and so
reap fruit on earth as we'll as lay up treas
ure in heaven. This rule and none other
applied in the spirit of justice and mercy,
compassion and forgiveness will solve the
increasing perplexities of crowded popula-
tions-labor and capital, rich and poor 1t
is time that those who have for centuries
had faith in the doctrines of the Cross and
of the risen Christ should also have faith
in the every day Christ-the Christ of the
Golden Rule"
