GREAT SINS GROW FROM
SEEMINGLY LITTLE ERRORS
Doctor Patton Tells of Development
of Judas From n WorI<ingman
to n Traitor.

The Reverend Doctor C. II. Patton
preached at First Congregational Church
yesterday morning on 1.-THE Character of
Judas" taking as his text John xiii, 81,
% He said. in part:
"A recent writer has made list of the
one hundred greatest men of history, on
the basis of the space allotted to differ
ent names in thirteen biographical en-
cyclopedias. Excluding Christ, he finds
that Napoleon Bonaparte heads the list.
Had Christ been included he would I'M
doubtedly have ranked first and Bona
parte second. The conclusion Is start
ling and instructive.
No amount of sentimental writing on
the part of those illy-informed can pre-
vent the verdict of history that Napoleon
was a titan of anarchy. And yet 1t was
inevitable that such man should stand
next to Christ in the worlds esteem. The
two men stand for the two opposite and

ing Messiah, nor would they have been
equipped for their expedition in search of
him.
Their characters stand out in strong
contrast to that of the rich fool who
spent his time in eating drinking and
making merry. They say to us at the
starting point: Wisdom is the principal
thing; therefore. get wisdom. And with
al thy getting get understanding.
1.-The second fact is that as they sought
the light a bright star appeared to them
Jerusalem to Bethlehem, where Jesus was.
Numerous astronomers, among them Muu-
ster and Kepler. have endeavored to ac-
count for this star in natural way. but
all their research has spent itself in spec
ulations. This, however, does not matter.
The great truth taught in the experience
of the wise men is vital, namely, that as
we sincerely seek the light God gives us
light that will lead us to the light Of the
world. There is a star of Bethlehem in the
heavens for every one who honestly and
hunlbly seeks the Savior.
Then we are told at the close of the
account of their journey that they re-
joiced with exceeding great joy when they
saw the star. Well they might, for in 1t
they saw Gods hand leading them to
eternal joy. How nobly their end COM
pares with that of the rich fool!
Looking back over the past year we
see the trail of the bright star that has
pointed the way. and with exceeding great
Joy turn our faces to the new year, sing

MANS GREATEST MISTAKE
is SHUTTING OUT CHRIST.
The Reverend j. Stephan Compares
the Present Generation to the
Innkeeper of Bethlehem.

mo Room for Christ" was the subject
of the evening sermon yesterday at Mar
vim Memorial NJ L. Church, South, by
the Reverend Josephus Stephan. the pas
tor. He took for text Luke ii, z: There
was no room for them in the inn.'' He
said in part:
There is nothing more pathetic in all
the Christmas story than the forcing of
Jesus to be born in that humble Bethlehem
stable, by the confusion, the selfishness
and the jam of the overlooking inn. 1t
was the beginning of human slight and
seltshness, and the divine humiliation and
suffering which put Christ into sympa-
thetic touch with the poorest and the
lowliest life.
TT would be folly to condemn this inn
keeper for his conduct in shutting out of
his premises these iowiy pilgrims, and the
holy visitant born that night 1t is true
he missed undying honor in failing to
perform an unselfish. fraternal act of serv-
ice. But he lived In time less sympa-
thetic and humane than our own; he was
influenced largely by his heartless guests;
the reforming. sanctifying principles
taught by this child of hilary these many
centuries were not then known, and, fur.
thermore. he was ignorant of the sacred
character of the visitors.
I'VE would not brand this unfortunate
man for his sin, but we do the criminal
attitude of the many thonghtless men and
women this ChristnIastide who deny their
Lord place in their hearts. as he comes
to them on a mission of condescending,
wondrous ,benefcence.. They see the EVIL
dences of his favor; they. witness the tri-
umphant lives and the holy joys of re-
deemed souls; they enter into the blessed
ness of Christmas joys and privileges. but
they recognize not their King; they ac-
eept not his claims OF oyeTtures as say
Tor; they have no room for him in their
hearts, their homes, their pleasures, their
business, nor sometimes even in the sane
tuary with its worship and service

hearts are the same as can no doubt be

Amid this multitude Of applicants. in the

"STAR OF BETHLEHEM"
SHINES TO-DAY FOR SEEKERS.
The Reverend j. Percy Stuart Draws
Lessons From the Journey of
the Wise Men of the East.

The Reverend ]. Percy Stuart preached
at the Compton Heights Baptist Church
yesterday morning on The Wise Men of
the East taking for his text Matthew ii.
lis. and saying, in part:
I'm his account of the wise men of the
East and their pilgrimage TO Bethlehem
Matthew has given US a story of abiding
interest and beauty.
.It furnishes the inspiration for one of
Tissots best pictures. Is the basis of a
vivid and thrilling scene in Ben Hur and
suggests Henry Van Dykes delightful tale
of The Other Wise Man. The story in
the gospel IS simply and briefly told.
Some wise men from the East came
to Jerusalem and inquired of Herod the
King, Where is he that is born King of
the jews?' For we saw his star in the
hem was to be his birthplace they trav-
eled thither.
las they journeyed on their way the
star which they had seen in the east APP
child was. They rejoiced greatly and
went I'm IN and paid their homage to the
probably Arabia, and how many there
were is matter of conjecture. Some say
twelve, some say three.
They doubtless belonged to a pic
turesque class of priest-sages who were
common to the Oriental countries of that
day. Some of these were magic workers
and fakirs, while others were earnest,
learned and spiritual seekers after the
truth. Evidently the wise men Of the
story were of the latter number.
They had more than likely heard of the
Hebrew faith through some of the Israel
ties who were scattered abroad and posi-
bly, by commercial intercourse with other
nations.
These are matters of detail. We are in
terested to-day in the lessons that we may
learn from these wise men and the ex-
important fact stated is that they were
wise men. They showed this in choosing
their pursuit in life. They must have
given the first place in their lives to seek
ing after intellectual and spiritual things
or they could not have known of the COM
