Session to Discuss Small

Special to tho Evening Journal.

lOldlstoh, OF Portland, Oregon preach
ed I'M Nazareth NJ e. Church yesterday
morning to a large congregation. The
bishops sermon was greatly enjoyed
by all. He is forceful and eloquent
preacher. His subject was THE Con-
stancy Of Jesus" and his text was
John xix. 30; 1T is finished The
bishop said in part;
How simple are these words when
we think OF the great transaction o
which they speak. Gods thoushts arc
not as our thoughts, nor His ways a,
cur ways. When we do some nobl,
act we seek the praise Of our fellCS
men. Not 80 with God. The create
acts of the Almighty are spoken OF In
the SIMPLEST language or creation
the revealed word says simply In the
beginning God created the heavens and
the earth
The patient loving. unsweryins
constancy with which Jesus went o
to the very finish of his redeemin
work is TO me the most wonderful patl
OF It. Many noble undertakings have
been well begun and carried almost 70
the zenith of accomplishment, and then
have failed. not so with Jesus.
How often when we are passing
through great trials or conflicts, I'VE
feel the thrill OF help coming rom
those about us. Washington was q
hero. born soldier. aud yet he could
not keep up his courage In the midst OF
! Opposition without the help that came
from those about him. Jesus was
forced to met the great crisis OF His
fife alone, and yet He never faltered
for one moment
MY text is among the last words OF
Jesus. Why are last words intere sting?
Is II simply because they are last
words. Partly, but they are also hon
est words What motive had Jesus to
persist to the end In his redeeming
work except that he was the son Oh
God, Jesus prayed, Father, forgive
them. for they know not what they
do. This prayer was for those who
We're mailing him 10 the cross-Hls
murderers. and so He prays for sin
ners Of every class.
I'm the discord of that terrible hour
there was one penitent note One oi
the thieves conscious Of his sin, said,
Lord, remember me" The nails were
tearing His hands and His feet, He was
In mortal agony, but the Saviour could
still hear the cry Of the pmitent soul
and save him.
"Jesus has finished the work II you
do not accept this salvation it is your
fault"
The church was handsomely deco
rated with autumn leaves and vege-
tables.
