ANGELES HERALD: MORNING JANUARY 49, 1897.

s.It must follow that Christ is grieved
by the denial of human love- palned by
human Indifference and by human hate
which leads others to fill their hearts
full of bitterness toward him. God is
great enough to be Cod and yet be
pained by the Withholding of your love
and mine, because in the majesty of in
finite love he has opened his heart to
man. This Is not fact for pride, but
for our surprise, our alarm our care.
Love for Christ manifests itself in
a deferential regard for his command
ments. Confession of faith is reproduce
tive. The failure to testify promotes
other failures and neglects But, valu-
able and important as the expression Of
the lips may be, the keeping of his COM
mandments is equally important. In
deed, until one has made it his habit 10
obey, his testimony will not be of much
worth. Something donefor Christ gives
something to say for Christ. Love
prompts to the doing; love cannot rest
without deeds.
1.-The quick response of the infinite
heart is another manifestation of the
marvellous fatherhood of God. In the
heart which is opened heavenward
through love and obedience, there is the
interblending of God and man. Yet God
is ever distinct from man. Humanity
at its highest is never divinity at itslow-
est. In no stage of the progression and
exaltation of the eternal future can the
created obliterate all distinctions and
merge into the being and essence of the
Creator. And yet, saidlthe Lord Christ,
We will come unto him and make our
abode with him. There is mighty fact
beneath these assurances. The Son CT
God dealt with vast and glorious reali-
ties. He dealt with a vastly greater be-
ing in man than the PHILOSOPHERS of the
materialistic schools of this nineteenth
century are recognizing in him. And it
means great deal more to be Chris
tian than we shall ever be able to de-
scribe to ourselves while with these eyes
we look through this dim, earthly light,
able only to Comprehend part Of what
we see. In the text we have a simple
clew to that life Of trust, of love. of obe-
ddence, which brings that indiwelling
and milling of God the Father, Son and
Holy Ghost, through whose operations
we may be able to say as we enter into
the glory to be revealed, This is what
1t means to be Christian; life on earth
OF faith and works; in heaven, an heir
OF oGd and joint heir with Christi"

EyANGELISTIC SERVICES.
Poverty Relieving Helplessness Dis
coursed On BY Evangelist Walk.

David Walk continues the special
eyangelistic services with the Church
OF Christ on East Eighth street near
Central avenue. AT ule morning SER
vice he read the incident recorded in the
third chapter of Acts, relative to the
healing of the congenital cripple. Com
menting on the narrative as whole, he
said that the copartnership of the two
apostles in this transaction is itself Sig
nificant. 1t speaks of associated effort
in the infancy of the Church of Christ.
The Master sent out the twelve and
seventy in pairs. One was the COM
plement of the other. No one person,
however gifted, is endowed with all the
qualifications necessary to successful
work for Christ.
1t is pleasant to note that the helpless
cripple was restored at the gate of the
temple called Beautiful. There ought
to be a beautiful door opening into
every sanctuary. At the door and in
the vestibule you may get in your best
work of the great Healer of souls. Speak
a kindly word to that stranger. Greet
with pleasant smile and a warm grasp
of the hand that visitor who seeks an
hour of devotion at your altar We
should go to the house of worship Eek
pecting to receive something" This
was the cripple'S expectation, but he re-
ceivedN more than he dreamed of. So
may all. and SO will all, who enter the
house of God in the proper spirit.
Il have neither silver nor gold" said
the apostle, but what I have, that
give thee 1t was a blessed thing
for the poor beggar that the apostles
were penniless. Their poverty was the
salvation of the helpless man. Having
no money to give, they considered what
they could do. To help man to help
himself is a far greater gift than all the
money that a millionaire could bestow;
and, this incident more than hints at a
great underlying principle of the reli-
gion of Christ.
In the name of Jesus Christ perfect
sounGrness was bestowed, but still the
apostle took him by the hand and raised
him up. We will not readily part COM
pany with those whom we bless, but will
exercise a loving solicitude for them af-
terw,ard, and the reflex influence of
benefcent deeds will return to bless our
own souls.
The meetings will be continued each
evening during the week.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL.
God and Man Interblending the Theme
of DR.. Days Sermon.


The words found in John xiv, 23, ''If a
man love me, he will keep my words, and
my Father will love him, and we Will
come unto him and make our abode with
him. were chosen by Rev. DR.. Day for
his theme, God and Man Interblending.
'"The ministry of Christ" said the
speaker, was nearly ended. Just before
he laid aside the human form, in which
he had chosen to enfold himself, ne
spoke to his little company as he had
not before-words Of tenderness and af-
fection, but of strength and mighty i'm
port In this one verse is the Gospel ac-
count of what the Christian is to Christ
and what he is to him.
This is of especial value at this hour,
when there is such an effort to place
God afar off, to make man his own Sa-
vior, and to divest us of all personal re-
lations with God or Christ, save those
which the astronomer has to the distant
silent stars between whom, across the
appalling, frozen space which lies be-
tween, no communication, touch nor re-
sponse ever comes or goes.

spired to Judge; oftentimes no one else
was present when God made tN revela-
tion. To take statements from the Bible
to prove the inspiration of the Bible is
not reasoning in a circle. We first claim.
what most men admit, that the Bible IL
a true book, and then prove that if it
Is true it Is inspired, for it says So We
will trace three lines of proof from the
Scriptures themselves. These proofs
will be mostly Scripture quotations.
First proof-The statements of Scrip
lures as to themselves. One Scripture
writer often quotes another portion Of
Scripture as being the word of God The
Scripture says was for the apostles the
final appeal for authority. The Jews
understood The Scripture to mean what
we now call the Old Testament. One
New Testament writer would have lit
tie opportunity to quote another New
Testament writer because they wrote SO
nearly at the same time. But there are
at least two quotations of the New Tes-
lament in the New Testament. Paul,
in l. Tim, Wis. declares that the Scrip
ture says: The laborer is worthy of his
reward This is saying of our Lord
as recorded in Luke 1877. The apostle in
/. Peter, 3:16, classes Paul's writings
with the other Scriptures. Our text says
all Scripture is given by inspiration of
God QI. Tim, 3:16). Second proof: The
SldltIIltHtS VI ocIlpluTe DIS 10 It's WRITER'S.
God promised in the Scriptures that the
writer's should be inspired. He said to
Isaiah: My words have I put in thy
mouth Usaaiah 59:21) To jeremiah He
said the same thing der, 1:9). To Eze-
kiel He commanded: Speak with My
words (Ezek. 3:D. The Scripture
moreover. declares that it's writer's were
inspired. Paul in Heb, 3:7, identifies the
Psalmist's speaking with the speaking
of the Holy Ghost. And just as the
curtain began to fall on Pauvs life he
unites the human and the divine by de-
claring that the Holy Ghost spoke
through Isaiah. Third proof-The mir
acles which in many instances accom-
panied the teaching of those who were
inspired. 1t is declared in Heb, "a,
that God bore witness with signs and
wonders and divers miracles and gifts
of the Holy Ghost. God thundered on
Sinai while Israel was receiving the
law. The Holy Ghost made the apostle
speak with tongues at Pentacost. Paul
raised a dead man to life at Troas. John
was permitted to read the future and
gaze into heaven. My friends, If this
Bible is inspired it is everything to
man; it contains his guide to salvation.
Lovingly should we accept and embrace
it: prayerfully and earnestly should we
give it to Others"

SERVICES AT SIMPSON.
DR.. Bland Speaks on the Disposition of
Natural Gifts.


Simpson tabernacle was we'll attended
Sunday morning. Rev. r. w. Bland
preached for DR.. Mclean, who is still
confined to his home by sickness. The
speaker chose for his text Eph. iv:11-
12-14, the theme being on the disposition
of gifts. Paul is speaking of the agencies
Christ has provided for his church. Paul
stood among the churches in their crude
state and portrayed their future and
predicted what would be the<asult when
the principles OF the giIisl which Christ
had given to the different workers should
be applied and. proved. Churches today
are looking for all around preachers, but
they are not to be found God doesn't
make all around preachers or all around
horses. A good trotter is not a good draft
horse; neither is a good evangelist
good pastor God has given gifts to diff
ferent ones for different work and to all
combined to form and build up the
church.
1t seemo to me the apostle laid great
tress upon THE building up of members

UNIVERSALIST CHURCH.
DR.. Rice Expounds the Theory of
Brotherly Love.


AT the Universalist church Rev. Mr..
Rice took for hts text Luke vi:27: Love
Your Enemies. He said, in part
We are told to love those who hate
us, who have wronged US; not those we
would naturally love.
To love the sinful, outcast ones of the
earth, to lift them.
Every day we see some way of putting
this into practice. Love is the essence
of the divine law. When we can love
those who have been unjust and really
injured US, then we begin to understand
something of the Christ love for human
ity.
What he did we can do. It is not easy
but it is Christ-like. The most wretched
man living is he who has fallen SO low
that no one loves him.
Do not such ones need our pity and
love mere than those who are already
dear 10 US? Let the Christ love shine in
our lives"
Continuing this subject DR.. Rice said,
among other good things: Il wish we
could forgive those who are near to US,
who are every day needing this forgive
ness. The little things Of life call forth
our tenderness in this respect, and as
God is so willing ta forgive us we must
not harden our hearts toward his chill
dren.
Surely Jesus proved his divine ma
ture when he said: Father forgive
them We can seek and find him because
he is always near"

temptation adding firmness and faith
to the Christian character.
The light of God does not come to us
in a sudden burst of sunlight on our WIS.,
ion, but little by little, until the day star
from ON high is revealed to our Souls.
Until we all come in the faith and knowl-
edge of the fullness in Christ Jesus we
are learning and are lacking in knowl-
edge. Three-fourths of religion is' con-
duct, and it means keeping the COM
.mandiments and doing righteousness.
There is no limit to the perfecting OF
Christian character When the Chris
tian gets sanctified hrhas just touched
the edge of perfection, and Will be going
on until he reaches the goal and the
Master shall say 1t is enough-"Cnme up

INVESTIGATING ATTORNEYS.
Patent Office Authorities Inuuirinr
Into Certain Practices

Several important discoveries on the part
who Use questionable business methods are
Low being investigated by Acting Com
missioner Greeley, and will no doubt end
in the disbarmont of half a dozen attor-
Teys.
The charges are based upon the prac-
tee of certain attorneys who keep them
selves acquainted with the names of all
Iatentees and urge the inventors to take
out foreign patents. Golden opportunities
are held Out. and instances are cited where
foreign patents have been sold to great
advantage. Such method of drumming
up business is condemned by the depart
ment, especially in view of the laws which
prevail foreign countries relative to
patents. Il is we'll known that in most
foreign countries the previous publication
of patent in this country DESTROYS its
patenta biity abroad. And since these at
torneys can get list of such inventors
only through the published records The
illeSalIty of their methods is apparent
The records of the courts are full of
cases where foreign patents have been
declared void because the device had been
published before the patent issued. There
Is little iou5t that 4 number of such cases
exist and when the practice is fostered by
INSCRIPTIONS attorneys the inventors suf-
fer.
There are some other cases that are
being Investigated. but these are most
serious. Acting Commissioner Greeley

Chinese Newspaper.

TACOMA, Wash. December 1.-THE
Northern Pacific's steamer Tacoma brings
but little news of late happenings in the
orient. Japan is exercised over recent
Corean events which indicate the strength
ening of Russia's hold upon that country,
and is losing its beilicose attitude on the
Hawaiian annexation question.
A committee of the Shanghai chamber of
commerce has recently recommended the
adoption Of the gold standard by the Straits
community. The sovereign is recommend
ed as the unit, and silver is relegated to the
position of a token coin. Japan papers
state that there is little doubt concerning
the adoption of the recommendation by the
Straits community. In Hong Kong and
other cities it has been found necessary to
increase wages owing to the depreciation Of
silver and the rise of commodities.
Dynamiters wrecked the Huttari station
and adjoining buildings on the Hokutsu,
Japan, railway on November 8.
According to the japanese papers Baron
Nisnl OPPOSES the policy of Count of Oku-
ma in regard to the Hawaiian treaty of an
I.exaton. The baron will not press any OBJ
jections to the treaty, merely insisting that
the privileges now enjoyed by Japan sub
jects shall not be impaired and that any
losses be made good. The Japan Mail dis
credits this story, but adds that Japan's
protest would not fail, as annexation is in
eyitable.
Japan is importing rice in order to relieve
distress of the poor which has grown out
Of the appreciation Of that commodity.
The first purely Chinese newspaper has
been established at Chung King. Wood

the children and other watching friends
at the bedside of Mother Mckinley are bid

grows out of a rally from the sinking spell

the patient much later than usual last
night and made his morning call consider
ably later. After his examination at $50
he said Mrs. Mckinley was in much the
same condition as yesterday morning and
he felt that there We're strong reasons for
hoping that she would survive the day.
