M AN experiences so many of the vic
 tories of the devil, andwitnesses so few retreats, that he comes almost to hold the view that the devil is irresisti- ble. But it is Gods Word that the flight of the devil is as certain as the resist ance is determined Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" The fleeing devil is an encouraging and refreshing picture to get before the soul. Let us look long and earnestly at it, so that its truth and meaning may be indelibly impressed upon the heart. IL is need less to say that the fleeing devil is a defeated devil. Look at misunderstanding form! Cowardice gives swiftness to those flying feet. The cringing out lines of the figure betoken baseness and despicab ble stealth. The blacknesS in flight opens to receive him and is suggestive of foulness and destruction and death. The devil never retreats until he is defeated, but when he is routed what despicable creature he is. But note another thing. The flee ing devil is an unmasked devil. His sheep's clothing never covers his hinder parts. His disguise which makes him appear as an angel of light is not ann pie enough to reach all about him. When he caught a glimpse of one of Gods angels and determined to have garments cut after the same pattern he forgot all about the back breadths and seams, and his tailors, while care fully following his instructions, were able to make for him garment which was deceptive in appearance from the front view, but which never has and never can be made to meet and cover behind. So the fleeing devil is an un- masked devil. From the front view he looks like anything but the devil he is but get him on run to the rear and he is seen in his true light. The chameleon changes it's color to harmonize with the object to which it is clinging and the devil has a similar ability. When the soul meets him face to face if is hard to penetrate the disguise and realize that it is the devil and-not some goodly and desirable parsonage. But let resist ance manfully assert itself and demand to see the hinder parts, and the gentle sheep that has come bleating to be taken into the bosom and fondled ana cherished as most desirable posses sion is discovered to be the ugly, shag- gy gray wolf which would eat out the vitals

enemy of mans soul. Christ declared tha the devil was the father of liars, and as such he is the progenitor of cowardly race. He is bold and fearless when the object of his attack hesitates to strike the defensive blow and yields to his advance, but let determined re- sistance be offered and soon the devil is confused and in full and ignominious retreat. The fleeing devil is the only kind of devil God would have the soul know In the galleries of Heaven is hung the masterpiece of the ages show ing the Son of God watching the flee ing form of the devil, while bright an gels come lowering down to minister to Him after He has faithfully resisted his attacks. But in the internal regions, where the devil reigns supreme, the artist imps are never permitted to paint such scenes. It is a tabooed sub- ject. The devil, like great many peo- pie, never likes to look at himself as he really is. He has preserved the picture of the scene in the garden with his vic tory over Adam and Eve, and all about are hung paintings of his subsequent triumphs-N drunk, Moses angry and arrogant; David, the adulterer and murderer; Elijah fleeing before the wrath of wicked Jezebel, and the long list of other triumphs which he has gained over the human race; but no where can be found the wilderness scene with Jesus resisting and utterly routing the devil. The censorship has been rigid and the devil has kept his forces busy expunging from the rec ords the incidents wherein he has fig ured ignominiously.

 pute the existence of the devil is
 because they have never seen him in flight He has so successfully identi- fled himself with conditions. and things, and impulses, and desires, and appetites, and ambitions that his per sonality is obscured. But the fact of the matter is that God and His Word recognize and speak of him as a real person from Genesis to Revelation. and it is something more than an infu- ence or natural human tendency with which the soul has to deal. Not only must the reality of the devil be felt, but the directions from which his
 attacks are made must be clearly un- derstood. To be forewarned is to be forearmed. Military success is always dependent upon the knowledge of the movements of the enemy and the point at which the attack &e be made. To be surprised is to be- efeated at the very start. The Ss devil
