Where is the young mans soul, with any
music IN 1t, that is not stirred with ia
cobS lament, or Nahum's d!rge or Ba-
bakkuks dithyrambic or Paurs march
! where the elders with doxology on their
races, respond to the trumpet blast of the
aarchangel, as he stand with one foot on
the sea and the other foot on the land,
swearing by Him that liveth forever and
ever that time shall be no longer.
am also amazed at the variety of this
Book. Mind you, not contradiction OF col
llslon, but variety. Just as in the song
you nave the basso and alto, and soprano
ana tenor-they are not in collision with
SSacn other, but come in to make up the
harmony-so it is in this Book there are
9lnerent parts of this great song of re-
demption. The prophet comes and takes
one part, and the patriarch another part
and the evangelist another part, and the
apostles another part and yet they all
come INTO the grand harmony-the song of
Moses and the Lamb" If God had in-
spired men of the same temperament to
write this Book, 1t might have been mon
otonous; but David. and Isaiah and Pc
ter, and job and Ezekiel, and Paul, and
John, were men of different temperaments
ana so, when God inspired them to write,
tney wrote In their own style. God pre-
pared the Book for all classes of people.
For instance, little children would read
the Bible, and God knew that, so He
allows Matthew and Luke to write sweet
stories about Christ with the doctors of
the law, and Christ at the well, and Christ
at the cross. so that any little child can

the aged people would want to read the
Book, and so He allows Solomon to COM
pact world of wisdom in that book of
Proverbs. God knew that the historian
would want TO read it, and so He allows
Moses TO give the plain statement of the
Pentateuch. God knew that the poet Would
want to read it, and so He allows Job to
picture the heavens as a curtain; and Is
aiah the mountains as weighed in bal
ance, and the waters as held in the hollow
of the Omnipotent hand; and God touched
David, until in the latter part of the
Psalms, he gathers a great choir stand
ing in galleries above each other-beasts
and men in the first gallery; above them,
Mills and mountains; above them, fire and
hail and tempest; above them, sun, and
moon, and stars of light; and then, on the
highest gallery, arrays the hosts of an
gels; and then, standing before this great
choir reaching from the depths of earth
to the nights of heaven, like the leader of
ing: Praise we the Lord. Let everything
that hath breath, praise We the Lord
ana all earthly creatures IN their song ana
mountains with their waving cedars, and
tempests in their thunder and rafting
hail and stars ON all their trembling harps
of light, and angels on their thrones, re-
spond magnificent acclaim: PRAISE We the
Lord. Let everything that hath breath
praise the Lord" God knew that the
pensive and complaining world would want
to read it, and so he inspires jeremiah to
write: "Oh, that my head We're waters
and mine eyes fountains of tears. God
knew that the lovers of the wild, the ro-
mantle strange would
read 1t, so he let's Ezekiel write of mystic
rious rolls and winged creatures, and fly
all zones-for the arctic and the tropics, a $
well as for the temperate zone. Colds
blooded GreenlanderS would ma much 70
at the equator would find his passionate
nature boil with the Vehemence of heaven
ly truth. The Arabian would read II on
his dromedary and the Laplander seated
on the swift sled, and the herdsman OF
Holland guarding the cattle in the grass,
and the Swiss girl reclining amid Alpine
crags. Oh, when l see that the Biple IS
suited in style, exactly suited to all ages,
to all conditions, to all lands, cannon
help repeating the conclusion Of my text:
1.-The statutes of the Lord are right.
1 remark again: the Bible Is right In Its
doctrines. Man sinner, Christ a SAVIOR
the two doctrines. Man must come down
his pride, his acknowledgements, mis-
worldliness Christ, the Amounted, must
go up If it had not been for the setting
forth of the Atonement, Moses would
never nave described Lne cTedllOH5 plOPH-
cts would not have predictedi apostles
would not have preached. It seems to me
as If Jesus, in the Bible, were standing on
a platform In great amphltheater, ana as
If the prophets were behind Him, throw
ing light forward on His sacred person;
and as if the apostles and evangehsts
stood before Him, like foot-lights throw
ing up their light into His blessed counte-
nance; and then as If all the earth and
heaven were the applauding auditory. The
Bible speaks of Pisgah and Carmel, ana
Sinai. but makes all mountains bow down
to Calvary. The 1ocks led over the Judean
hills were emblems of the Lamb of COO
that taketh away the sin of the world;
and the lion leaping out OF its lair was an
emblem of ''the lion of Judah's tribe" l
will, in my next breath, recite to you the
most wonderful sentence ever written:
"This Is a faithful saying, and worthy of
all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came
into the world to save sinners" No Won
der that when Jesus was born in Bethle-
hem heaven sympathized with earth and
a wave of Joy dashed clear over the bat
Elements. and dripped upon the shepherds herd
est, and on earth peace. goodwill toward
men," In my next sentence every word
weighs ton God i,, SO Iove1 t ne " ORG
whatsoever beneveth in Him should not
perish, but have everlasting life" Show
me any other book with such a doctrine
so high, so deep, so vast.
Again: the Bible is right in its effects.
! do not care where you put the Bible, it
just suits the place. You put 1t In the
his soul. He reads the commandments,
and pleads to the indictment guilty" He
takes up the Psalms OF David and says:
They Just describe my feelings" He
flies to good works. Paul starts him
out of that by the announcement; "A
man Is not justified by works" Then the
man, in despair, begins to cry out What
shall / do? Where shall go?" and a
voice reaches him, saying: Come unto
Me. all We who are weary and heavy
laden, and l will give you rest" Take
this Bible. and place Il In the. hands OF
men In trouble. Is there anybody here
in trouble? All! / might better ask, are
there any here who have never been IN
trouble? Put this Bible in the hands of
the troubled. You find that as some of
the best berries grow on the sharpest
thorns, so some Of the sweetest consola-
tions OF the gospel grow on the most
singing Affections. You thought that
death had grasped your child. oh, no.
1t was only the heavenly Shepherd taking
a lamb out of the cold. Christ bent over
you as you held the child In your lap and
putting His arms gently around the lit
tie one said, 'of such Is the kingdom of
heaven" Put the Bible in the school
Palsied be the hand that would take the
Bible from the college and the school,
