THE VOICE OF The PULPIT
SPIRIT OF REJOICING, A TIMELY,
sEASONABLE SHORT SERMON.
BY the Rev. Clarence a. ID. d.,
Pastor Of Lake-Avenue BAPTIST
Church, Rochester, n. Y.

Rejoice in the Lord Away; again l will
say, Rejoice" philippians Nv, 4.
The letter to the Philippians is a letter
of sunshine. 1t is cheerful reading, this
letter of Paul to a church which had so
cheerfully and generously ministered to his
necessities. Thirteen times in this short
letter do the words joy and rejoice occur.
Surely the great apostle could not have
closed his series of letters to the churches
with one more beautiful. like a clear sun
set after the storm has beaten itself out.
JOY! We love the sound of the word.
We eagerly catch at the bright-colored gar
ments! What strange creatures we are!
One day the JOY of those who sing that the
lines have fallen unto them in pleasant
places, the next the grief of those who re-
fuse to be comforted. In one house glad
ness over the return of one who has long
been absent. in the next sorrow over one
who has gone. SO in nature. One day joy
and praise to God seem written every
where, craven on the rocks. inscribed on
the sky. the sunshine lying warm over all;
the next, dark clouds cover the heavens.
the rain falls heavily upon the drenched
earth, the wind walls in the swaying pines.
Rejoicing i'm the Lord is not conditioned
by circumstances OF environment ms Is
indicated by the very words of the text and
the corresponding topic of the letter in
which they are found. 1t was a stole age.
The best philosophy of the day was stoi-
cism. There were many noble features
about this philosophy, but in stoicism the
ideas of God and Of nature were merged
in that of an inevitable destiny. To sub
nit ones self to fate was the highest ideal.
uncomplainingly TO accept the DEGREES Of
an iron-clad and heartless destiny. From
the consistent exponent of such a system
you could never have a cry like that OF the
apostle: you might as well look for it from
the lips OF a marble image.
Joy in the Lord is not conditioned upon
circumstance or environment. and yet how
much there is in each Of our lives which
should make those lives songs Of praise.
We. all OF US. have our peculiar blessings,
but 1 mention some of the most common.

A lack OF rejoicing in the Lord is some
times caused by "A melancholy nature. ! do
not forget that some are SO unfortunate as
to have that burden. 1t may have been

not ten cleansed; where are the nine?'
Wherever Gods love is recognized and His
grace is welcomed, praise should spring
forth as naturally as the earliest crocus
springs from the cold bosom of the earth
at the touch of April sun.
1t is our duty also to rejoice because il
is our duty to exercise the greatest posi-
BILE influence for Christ. and that is best
done by showing to others a life animated
by joy in the Lord. You remember Haw-
thorne's picture of the minister in colonial
days who wore ever before his face a
black vail. Wherever he went. always the
gloomy shade was before him. so that
when children at play saw his sombre
figure afar off they left their merry sports
and ran away i'm fear. So you may have
seen Christians who seemed enveloped i'm a
contagious melancholy which made them
objects of repulsion rather than of attrac-
ton to others. 1t Is objected thai our
Lord himself was a man of sorrows and
acquainted with grief. His brief earthly
life filled with trial, oppressed with bur
dens? True, but do you suppose for one
instant that the Savior was an object Of
gloom in the sunlight OF Palestine? No,
That could not be. The One who took the
children in His arms and blessed them, the
One to whom the children came. was not
a man OF gloom though a man Of sorrOws.
The keen Instincts Of children are seldom
at fault. and one TO whose arms the chill
dren come has a JOY in his heart that
answers to the children's joy.
CAUSES OF FAILURE.
And now let me speak of two OF the most
fruitful causes of a failure to rejoice in the
Lord, with a suggestion OF their remedy.

worst. The English publication of a book
recently brought out here with several Por-

American pictures, and the explanation
given was that the author was so well
known in certain social and diplomatic
circles abroad that the portraits of herself
would at once establish her IDENTITY. Oh
