lie WoS uOt q
mere restoration to mortal life, as wal
the raising of Lazarus from the dead.
Christ is called "the first born from
the dead" He was the first man who
ever came completely from under the
power of the grave. He was hence
forth perfectly free from all disabili-
ties brought upon the soul by sin.
He was ''the" first born of a new
creation-a new race of men. which
is to take precedence of all who had
ever existed before His resurrection
even higher in the scale of creation
than was Adam before he sinned.
And Christ's resurrection is an as
surance of the resurrection of all men.
Death. the last enemy OF man, is to
be overcome by Christ's bringing out
from under his dominion every son
and daughter of Adam whom he now
has in bondage: all who will hereafter,
even to the end of time, become his
subjects.
The immortal life which the Savior
brings to His children is life free
from all the consequences of sin. The
soul and spirit are cleansed and puri-
fed; the body freed from disease,
fatigue, feebleness and pain. The
earth is restored to its original beauty
and productiveness; everything of
evil is cast out. There will be moth
ing to disturb the peace and harmony
of the universe. Our bodies will be
in all respects like that of Christ, af.
ter His resurrection. Sickness could
not assail Him; pain or fatigue He
would never know. Nothing ON earth,
in heaven or in hell could harm Him.
Even the laws which controlled the
natural man, was subordinate to the
spiritual man. GravitatiOn offered
no obstacle to His ascent to heaven in
bodily form. Matter opposed no
barrier to His entrance into rooms
securely fastened. When He wished
to remain unknown, the purpose of
His heart was instantly accomplished
in the changed features, and He was
a stranger. Did He desire to be in
distant place the desire was immedi-
ately gratiied and with the quickness
of thought He was there.
Such will be the possibilities of all
those who partake of the resurrection
life of Jesus Christ. What is there
not within the reach of one thus en-
dowed, to accomplish. The achieve
ments of men in their shOrt-lived
feebleness are so marvellous as to ex-
cite our wonder and admiration. Can
we conceive what mighty things could
he performed when every obstacle is
removed and man can carry into ef-
feet the plans and purposes of his
mind without let or hindrance? Con
tinuing his work for ages, and profit
ing by past experience, collecting his
from the entire world, bring
ing to his aid everything in nature,
how near perfection might be not
reach, What room also for research
and investigation! The entire Gre
alton which Christ brought into exis-
tence for Himself will be open for ex-
ploration to all His children. And
through countless ages they may con-
tinue their inquiries, without picking
up more than a few pebbles on the
shores of truth.
The resurrection of Christ, which |
Easter commentaries, brings within |
reach of every man those blessed
privileges. Let every heart be full
of thanksgiving, and every voice lifted
in praise to the risen Lord of this |
Easter morn.

AN EASTER SERMON.

One of the well known newspaper
of St. Louis last Sunday offered prize.
tor the discovery of a certain question
which Christ asked, the key to which
was given in the single word ''the.'
Hundreds sought the pages OF
the sacred book and in the eighth
chapter of the gospel of St. Mark,
thirty-sixth verse found:
"For what shall it profit a man i:
he shall gain the whole world and lose
his own soul.
1t is possible that in the delight of
a chance for a prize, many did
not realize the force of that
brief, vet the most impressive
question which ever fell from lips d.
vine, that which has furnished the
subject for more sermons than any
other one utterance Of the Christ
whose resurrection from the tomb will
be celebrated all over the Christian
world this morning.
Aye. "what shall it profit a man if
he shall gain the whole world and lose
his own soul?"
There is a solemn, searching. consci-
ence stirring meaning in that question,
which no argument can cOnfound,
which no excuse can undermine.
Do you think, oh man, as you sit
beneath the roof where this morning
are assembled those who believe that
nearly two thousand years ago, the
grave gave up its dead, who listen to
the grand roll of rejoicing music, who
hear through the devout teachings Of
His ordained, the story Of the Gross,
the life in death of Gods only beloved
Son, that there was no meaning in that
inspired and solemn question what
shall it profit man if he shall gain
the whole world and lose his own soul ?
Do you think that the greed which
has warped and stunted and held you
in its thrall for years and years will
parry that question; do you think
that the raltrv meanness which caused
yva 20 Cheat your fellow man will
help you to evade its direct aim; do
you think that the wrong which lies
hidden in your own heart will still
hide before the never dying voice of
the Infinite; do you think that fine
attire, that luxury and ease and pleas
ure, bought at the sacrifice of your
honor, will silence the laundering tone
which has rung adown the ages and
which will ring until that day when
the heavens shall roll together
as a scroll and you shall
stand at the bar where no paid wit
nesses can influence the One-the
Judge of eternity's court, the just,
the Searcher of all hea rts; do you
think that it will profit you if you shall
gain the whole world and lose your
own soul.
You may never see another morn,
you may go away from life to-day or
tomorrow, or a week, or a month
hence-and what will you give in ex-
change for your soul?
Lilies and roses are on the affairs,
music and song and gladness tell that
81 am the resurrection and the life,"
but above all the Voice, sounds and
echoes and thrills and stirs with the
old, yet burning truth what shall it
profit man, if he shall gain the whole
world and lose his own soul ,"
