want TO make three points. Every frank
and common .sense man will acknowledge
himself 10 be n sinner. What are you going

What do Won mean by the mercy OF God2
Is Il the letting down Of bar for the ad-
mission Of NIL. without respect 10 character
Be not decelvel2 see a soul coming up TO
the gate OF mercy and knocking at the corn
crib OF heavenly supply; ani q voice from
within saws: Are you alone?" Tho sinner
REPLIES, GAN alone" The voice from
within says. "You shall not see my pardon
inc face unless YOUR divine Brother, the
Lord Jesus. be with YOU" Oh, that Is the
point at which so many are discounted.
There Is no mercy from God except through
Jesus Christ Coming with Him, we ara Re-
repted. Coming without Him. we are re-
ected. Peter put It right IN his great SER
mon before the high priests, when he thuu-
dered forth: "Nelther Is there salvation In
any other. There is no other name given
under heaven among men whereby We may
be saved.1 Oh, anxious slnnerl Oh, dying
sinner! Oh, lost sinnerl all YOU have got to
do Is to have this divine Benjamin along
with you. Side by slide, coming to the gate,
all the store-house5 OF heaven will swing
open before your anxious soul.
Am / right In calling Jesus Benjamin. o,
yes. Rachel lived only long enough 70 give
a name to that child. AMI with dying kiss
she called him Benonl Afterward Jacob
changed his nams, and he called him Ben
lamln. The meaning OF the name she gave
was, "Son OF my Pain" The meaning Of
| the name the father gave was, "Son OF my
| Right Hand" And was not Christ the Son
OF pain2 All the sorrows Of Rachel In thai
! hour when she gave her child over into tht
| hands of strangers, was as nothing compaDe
| with the struggle OF God when He gave NJ
| His only Son. And was not Christ appro
| prlately called "Son Of the Right HandY'
| Did not Stephen look into heaven and SEE
| Him standing Mt tho right hand OF God? AM
| does not Paul speak of Him as standing a
/ the right hand Of God making intercessloI
| for US? o, Benjamin-Jesus! Son OF pang
/ Son Of victory The deepest emotions OF on
! souls ought to be stirred at the sound OF tina
\ nomenclature. In your prayers plead HI
tears, Hrs suffBrings. His sorrow VS.. and HI
death. Ityou refuse TO do It, all the con
cribs md the palaces Of heaven will b
bolted and barred against your soul, and
voice from the throne shall stun you with tn
announcement, "You shall not see My fac
except your brother be with you"
