RIGHT FOR RIGHTS SAKE.
Rev. DIR. B. I. Whitman's Sermon
at Calvary Baptist Church.

Rev. DR.. B. I. Whitman's Sermon
at Calvary Baptist Church.
The Rev. B. L. Whitman, president OF
the ColUm ban University, occupied the
pulpit yesterday al the morning service at
Calvary Baptist Church. His discourse
which was on the general subject of
duty, was eloquent, both III word and
thought: the argument used demonstrating
that tco often we are, through our own
shortsightedness and the influence of
environment too prone to be affected by
the opinions of others than by a strict
sense of our duty.
The sermon was based Oh the text taken
frJr Luke ix:53; ''And they did not receive
him because his face was as though he
would go to Jerusalem" This was the
judgment OF the Samaritans against Christ
when Became among them The Samarians
had long been at variance with the people
al Jerusalem, who had refused them the
privilege of worshiping in their temples
and who then built temples and worShiped
gods Of their own. And so it was that they
would not receive Jesus for his face was
turned to Jerusalem.
This situation the Rev. DR.. whitma said,
presented two pictures: the experiences
and steadfastness of the Son of God and
the shortsightedness of men. 1t shows the
opposition and difficulties which con-
irontcd Christ on all sides. But it is rot
always opposition that proves hardest TO
overcome. Christ was besieged with the
most ailuring OF temptations. Having
witnessed the miracle of the: loaves and
the fishes the people cried: Come and
be orr king" But Christ said no, for He
knew that they wanted Him not on ac-
count of the miracle, but for the bread and
butter He gave them. Had He gone all
would have been easy. He would have
had no opposition. But not for a moment
did He hesitate, but faced all opposition,
no matter whence 1t came.
Not only did Jesus suffer by opposition
and temptation and Misrepresentation, but
worse than all by being misunderstood.
This was all the harder to bear for while
it is our enemies who misrepresent us, it
