REV. MR.. SWIFT'S SERMON
He Spoke Yesterday in the First
Presbyterian Church-Part of
His Discourse in the Af-
ternoon.

Rev. William II. Swift, of Homes
dale, delivered the afternoon sermon
at the First Presbyterian church yes
terday afternoon. Mr.. Swift preach
ed a very thoughtful and instructive
sermon in a quiet, convincing manner
and his words seemed to find an echo
in the hearts of those present, more,
perhaps, for the earnest way they were
spoken than for any other reason. Mr.
Swift took as his text First Corin-
thians, chapter 3, verse %: whether
Paul, or ApOllos of Ceplias, or the
world, or life, or death, or things pre-
sent, or things to come, all are yours"
He said in part:
IAN things are yours Life and
death, famine and plenty, sorrow and
happiness, all are yours. The Bible
is not merely philosophical history,
1t is the word of a personal God. God
is living personality. He will fulfill
every need of yours.
Listen to the disposition made to
Joshua: I will not fail YOU or for
sake you Take the truth of this
away with you. Think of this over and
over again. The burdens of life are
crushing and Ovcrpowering. but they
are necessary and salutary. The divine
discipline of life is intended to awaken
us to a realization of our powers.
The eternal God is our dwelling
place How marvellous is the pre-
scnce of God i'm our lives. After the
battles of life the soul returns to Him
as to a resting place. The great Je-
hovah is the port of many souls in
the storm of life. If God saves peo-
pie here on earth, surely he must be
trusted to save us from foes.
I'VE are precious to God. I am awe
struck when l say il, but it is so. He
has told us Himself in two places:
He kept him as the apple Of His eve
Keep me as the apple of His eye
This apple Of the eye is called the
little man of the eye for we can
see reflected i'm it the face of him who
looks in it. The Cody man is so
near God that he can see his refec-
tion i'm the eye of God
They may forget, but I will not
forget thee Gods heart is with US.
heart of infinite compassion and
mercy His heart is on us, in us and
with us. | have not spoken of Cal
vary and the crucificatiun. for / would
go back to Calvary. The Fathers
heart yearned for us centuries before
Calvary. We can rest on his heart
and rejoice with joy unspeakahle.
There is rest FOR every one if they
come to Him. We can almost hear
Him say: Come unto me, ye weary
ana hoaNy-laden, and | viii give you
rest. %

AN INTERESTING SERMON.
Rev. DR.. Hughes Heard at the Pres
byterian Chapel.

evening in the Presbyterian chapel,
Adams avenue taking for his text
the words; Whose branches ran over
the wall After explaining the set
ting and meaning Of the text. he said:
1T can be stated Of Christianity its
branches run over the wall, so that
even those who are outside the pale
of the church derive benefit therefrom
For instance, the best ltera ture of the
world is the outcome OF Christianity
The richest, the most instructive ana
the most enobling books are those
written by Christian men and women.
