DEVIL IN EEAvzN.

Rev. Jasper was well versed in the
Bible aI d in historical theology. he
showed plsinly again and again, that
Stion is figurative language and that it
has reference TO the fall OF Catholic
ism, and the onward march OF the
church under the covenant of grace. !.
John Jasper was interested in the
II airs of stste. He often pT aS ed for
SGovernors, Presidents. ard rulers in
this and other countries.
he had progressive ideas. and he be-
&lieved in the onward march of both
Echurch and state. He had well merit
led the confidence, best wishes and re-
aspect OF our white brethrer, and most
Especially those who live In the South.
They often visited his church, not
to criticise, but to hear him preach,
because they really enjoyed his style
lard manner OF presenting the woId Of
lGod.
i One of our Northern journals made
q very unfavorsble criticism on Rev
Jasper seme time sgo. But one Of our
Southern white papers came to his
<rescue.

paper " as complimentary spoken Of as

The ofatlons Of Demosthenes. the
philosophical genius of Socrates, the
4 arguments on the immortality OF the
soul by Cicero, the profound meta
1 physical investigation OF Plato, the
descriptions of great battles written by
julius Caesar. the physical training OF
Euripides among the Athenians and
the orations Of Homer and Shakes.
peAre, the mere recital of these in the
pulpit Was not preaching to John JAS
per.
he believed in putting the truth 90
it could be easily reached and plainly
4 understood. he was always more in
terested in the thought and the deliv.
q cry OF his message than he was in the
homileticl arrangement of his ser.
&mon.
His great aim in the pulpit was Go
s preach that sinners mIght be saved
q from he'll, and to cheer Gods wsyworn
saints on their pilgrimage.
John Jasper was q philosopher. he
was . deep reasoner, and independent
thinker. He was q great warrior for
his Lord and Master.
By his orders, he engaged In many
battles and when the smokes and noiae
had passed away. he was found to be .
