TO THE SKEPTICs.
Dr.. Deems AdmOnishes the BeIiev.
ers to Look Around Them

Rev. DR.. Deems, Of HornellsviIIe N "
occupied the pulpit of the Central Presbyter-
ian cnurch last evening, preaching from the
text Mark xvi, 16, HE that believeth not
snail De damned" In his opening remarks
". Deems stated that the demand Of the
times was for discussion of the pleasant
phases of the Gospel, but that he did NOT
propose to yield in any respect to the popu-
lar desire. He did, however intend to dis
course upon the text of the evening from
the standpoint of his conception of the lesson
1t was intended to teach, and contrary to
the acceptation Of many Christians, he did
not believe the passage quoted had been ut
tered by Christ as threat or in the spirit
or V1nd1ct1veness, nor yet with gloating in
spired by the anticipation Of the fate which
He knew was to overtake those who refused
to believe. On the contrary, Christ had
given utterance to the words as a warning
in spirit of infinite tenderness: wholly con-
sistent with His characteristic love. There
was a sorrowful, pathetic plea in the words
for the unrighteous to accept the salvation
which He so freely offered.
He had said in the same spirit, HE that
cometh unto me, will in no wise cast out, .
and the refusal Of the people to come, or
believe, had troubled the Savior so deeply
that His love moved Him to warn them
against the inevitable consequences Of their
erring ways. Mercy was extended in one
hand while the other was raised in protest
against their unbelief.
Throughout his discourse DR.. Deems dwelt
upon the refusal of those Of the present
day to believe in Christ as had the audi
tors of the original text, and told how the
same lender warning was still contained in
the words of the Master. The lives led and
the examples set showed whether or not the
supplication in the text had been needed, and
If it was not greved the Savior would
be the predicted sentence would be passed
and the sinful lost through all eternity.

GLORY OF THE KINGDOM.
Rev. J. f. StOut's Topic at the First
Methodist.

Rev. J. r. Stout's sermon at the First NJ.
E. church yesterday dealt with the kingdom
Of God and it's glories, as described in the
Bible. He concluded
This kingdom. ruled by It's King, Jesus
Christ, having for its subjects all who con-
sent to do His will, having for It's law that
love which works through the transformed
life, revealed in the sermon the mount
has had a description from the great apostle
which, if it be true places it easily above
all other possible empires. 1.-The kingdom of
God is not meat and drink. but righteous
ness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost a."
1t is righteousness, it has it's highest ideal
in the truth, which is deified in Jesus, for
said He not, Il am the truth?' 1t is peace
that which marks the old kingdoms has
passed away, the reign of truth, which is
the reign of Righteousness, must have as a
result peace, which passeth knowledge which
dangered by enemies that are helpless to in
volve in war. and this condition is made
glorious by an experience, which has grown
out of the same facts of human and divine
relation, which have made possible the
righteousness and peace; they have the iov
of the Holy Ghost, the highest, hottest ecs-
tasy known in the universe of God The
heart is exalted and enlarged by the king
dom life to an appreciation of the highest
things. The established relation made pos
sible by consenting people has made pos
slble the opening to human eyes the mystery
OF the divine glory, to human ears the
melodies of the seraphic choirs to the human
heart the throbbngs of the divine love. and
so to that highest experience the Joy of the
Holy Ghost.
