THE TRIUMPHANT AND EOLIPSING
MIRACLE"

The joyous Easter has again come
with its rich suggestions and helpful
ministries to all believers in the sub
lime event which it celebrates-the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
from the dead in the power of his end
less life. 1t is the day which has been
we'll declared as "the monument of
Christendom to the truth of Christ's
victory" 1t rests on an event which
is authenticated history = uthenti-
Gated amid all the controversies of
the centuries as the basal fact of
Christianity. The hope inspired by
this event explains the wonderful
change which came over the little dis
couraged band of followers of the
Master when they saw him crucified
and darkness fell upon their spirits
and they confessed among themselves
the defeat of the cause that was dear
to their hearts. But when the risen
Christ appeared among them, and
they recognized him as victorious over
death and the grave, they were in
spired with new and grander hope,
and at once became brave and stead
fast, entering upon their work of
conquering the world for Christ, and
preaching the reality of that great
event whereof they were witnesses"
Hence the Gospel is the Gospel of
the Resurrection; its hope the hope
of immortality demonstrated and
made vital by the resurrection and
ascension of our Lord. The New
Testament denuded of all references
to this event and with the miracle of
the Resurrection eliminated, would be-
come broken and inconsistent mar
rative, offering no valid reason for its
own existence aud shorn of the main
sources of its power.
A recent writer quotes an acute es-
say on "The Mythical Theories of
Christianity" by Rev. Prebendary
Row, in which that distinguished
scholar says of first one theory and
another, by which educated unbe-
levers" endeavor to account for the
early idea that Christ rose, that not
one of these theories will Support
the weight of the Christian church"
What he calls the "weight of the
Christianity of the New Testament"
rests entirely on the fact of the trium-
plant and eclipsing miracle of which
the Easter Day is the commemora-
ton. If the record of this be once
invalidated all is gone, our faith is
vain. With this conclusion the Chris
tian world will generally agree. 1t

locks fall back and down to his shout
ders. What pulpit in New York can
boast of finer looking preachers
There is the same awkwardness in
hymn reading, too, but it would spoil
DIR. Collyer to read differently. As
in days of yore he uses manuscript,
which letters him little. Let one
who criticises DIR. Collyer's style hold
and interest an audience as well as
he, if one can.
His subject on Sunday morning
was sabbath Rest" His sermon
was in every sense an admirable one;
one that is needed by the large anti
Sabbath population of our times.
He began by quoting recent state
ment of Gladstone that he ascribes
his long life and good health to his
regular Sunday rest; that he never
permits anything to interfere with
that rest; that he includes Sunday
worship always with Sunday rest.
DR.. Collyer agreed with Gladstone.
No matter, he said, how Sunday came,
from Heaven or from earth, it is nee
eszary. There is an imperative rea
son for it in the nature of things.
Man and beast must have rest, It is
good to have our care and toll broken
by one day in seven. Neither the
body nor the brain can accomplish as
much or last as long by ignoring
Sunday rest and Sunday worship.
He spoke of some prominent man
who said he could do nine things we'll,
but in attempting to do the tenth he
spoiled the others. 1t was our father
Murray, l believe, who said that his
father spent Sunday usually in read
ing his Bible and whipping his chill
dren. DIR. Collyer did not plead for
the old Puritan Sunday, of course,
but for rational, cheerful one, such
as the word Sunday implies. So far
as possible he would have all work
stop on that day; all the wheels of bus
mess brought to a stand-still.

was Paul's argument also: eff Christ
be not risen then is our preaching
vain and your faith is also vain"
Thanks be to God for the clear
and blessed revelation which brings
to the world the faith that finds its
most radiant JOY and triumph over
the open tomb of Jesus the Christ,
the sent and the Son of God! The
ancient hope that filled the hearts of
the disciples remains now after nine
teen centuries to comfort and bless
earth's sorrowing children. Easter
Day is the anniversary of the sublime
faith in the Resurrection, and in its
observance our Lord again comes to
us with his message of consolation,
saying, "As live, ye shall live Also"
The old and favorite Easter hymn,
recounting the experience of her who
was "last at the cross and earliest at
the grave" will always be dear to
the Christian Church as the song of
the resurrection morning, and is full
of significant tenderness:
Mary to her Savior's tomb
Hasted at the early dawn;
Spice she brought and sweet perfume
But the Lord she loved had gone.
For while she lingering stood.
Filled with sorrow and surprise;
Trembling, while a crystal flood
Issued from her weeping eyes,
But her sorrows quickly fled
When she heard his welcome voice:
Christ had risen from the dead;
Now he bids her heart rejoice:
What change his word can make,
Turning darkness into day!
Ye who weep for Jesus sake.
He will wipe your tears away.
