ing advice to you is this: Never mind

cess, but it will insure your develop
ment. Otherwise you may find your
self at my age a prosperous practition-
er, but a dying old man."
1 am not here going into the details
of the errors and the reasons why a
man should not abuse his physical or
ganism. But l am here to state that
as God limits the natural realms in
which the fish can live, and the plants
can live, and the creeping things like
the worms and the snakes, can live, SC
God gives to man a physical realm
and in that realm he must live. If he
persists in going out Of that realm he
must die.

the officer answers: mo; you are under
legal restrictions. If you continue to
violate them we shall send you TO pris-
on as bigamist."
The land of the free? Yes, if you
obey our laws, but not otherwise. You
are free to do as you will in your own
home-that is, if you do not abuse your
offspring. If you do. as an agent for
the Society For the Prevention Of Cruel
ty to Children l can step in and take
your children away from you. The
land of the free? Yes, but you dare
not sell to my children obscene pic
lures for if you do l can make you
wear conyict's stripes. The land OF
the free? Yes, it is the land of the
free if you do not try to forclbly
enter my home, or rob my store, or re
fuse TO pay your taxes, or to 90 to war
as an American soldier when you are
drafted. or to serve in the jury box
when you are impaneled. You are
free, in a social sense, only when your
liberties do not conflict with the equal
liberties of some one else.
Not only does man have his physical
limitations and social limitations, but
also his mental limitations. As the
United States government first has its
national legislature, and then this ma
tional form of government is subd1vid-
ed into states, and these states into
counties, and these counties into town
ships, so l find the great human race
is divided and subdiyided ana again
redivided in reference to its limitatkns.

limitations more than in the mental

lifebOat?
If the United States government
compels us to obey certain social laws
enacted upon the statute books by the
dictates of its own national lesisla-
tors is it unjust for God to declare
that when we surrender our hearts 10
him we should come to him in his
wov and not in ours? If we have our
mental limitations and only in FEE
BILE and incomplete way can grasp the
infinite thought of God, are we not
foolish in setting up ourselves as
iudges and critics Of his methods!
Ought we not rather to accept his
Dlaus and humbly to submit ourselves
TO his rule? That is the way to true
freedom. When we accept the truth
that he has revealed to US and give
ourselves to his guidance, we learn by
experience that the truth makes us
free. The finite mind yields to the
infinite and grows into its true develop
ment. Therefore shall we not today
Weld our minds and hearts to the su-
premacy of Gods VIII, whose
thoughts are not our thoughts and
whose ways are not our ways!'
Limitations of Freedom.
True freedom always has its limita-
tions. Tie Christian lre TOO, has its
rightful limitations. Christ said, Il am
the way, the truth and the life; no man
cometh unto the Father but by me-
There is only one way TO God, one
door, one true life But after We have
once entered through that open door
then we are free. Aye, we may become
transcendently and eternally free Is
not my text right when it says, In
Christ the truth shall make you free|
Tie freedom he gives is the freedom
from sin, the freedom from punish
ment, but that freedom. ike all others,
can be obtained only by submitting to
Christs rule. In one way alone can
we gain that freedom, and that is by
the way of the cross. In his service
is endless joy and pleasures for ever
more.
My brother, my sister, are you ready
to let the truth make you free? In
antebcllum days there was a beautiful
scene enacted in one of the southern
slave markets. A young black girl
stood upon the auction block and was
being sold to the highest bidder Rough
men We're trying to buy her for evil
purposes, but in that group of by
standers was a Christian gentleman.
holding by the hand his own young
daughter. The young girls heart went
out for the sutferiugs of her black sis
ter, and she persuaded her father to
purchase the slave. Higher and higher
went the price. but at last the Chris
tian gentleman bought the young slave.
When the black girl was handed over
to her new master he said: Mary,
bought you for my daughters sake.
now give you your papers of freedom.
You can 90 where and when you
please. You are free" "What, mas
ter, am l free? Can I go where l will?
Then I shall 20 and stay with you"
Oh, she was a slave before the auction.
She was a slave after the auction. But
now she had become a slave of love.
VIII you not o man, 0 woman, hear
