TN the verse preceding our text Paul
s introduces the figure of a great
house in which there are various kinds
Of vessels. some of gold and some of
silver, others OF wood and still Others
of earth. In the opinion of some COM
mentators the great house typifes the
church, and the vessels the members
Of that church. The vessels of honor
are. those of gold and silver, and those
of dishonor the wooden and earthen
dishes. The first are taken torepresent
the true disciples of Jesus, the latter
those who are identified with Christ's
church. but who are unregenerate. It
is the figure Of the wheat and the tares,
the wheat and chat, the drag net filed
with fishes good and bad. The vessels
of gold and silver are precious and able
to endure the trying fire Of God and
hence at for His use. while those of wood
and earth are worthless. fragile and I'M
able to withstand the searehings OF the
Divine flame. and therefore are vessels
Oh. dishonor, filing a place in the great
house, but never being used IN goediF
service. This exegesis would seem TO
be sustained By the opening words OF
our text. which declare that. Il a nan
therefore purge himself from these, he
shall be, and so forth, evidently sng-
gesting a separation from the worldly
minded. HnhoIy brother, and d living be-
fore God that will be an example and

DLENTY of vessels. but what is the
l condition of those vessels? This
is the first question which must arise
between the one who would be used and
the Christ who longs to use. What is
the condition? Not the outward ap-
pearanee, but the inward state Not
what man beholds and knows, but what
God sees and knows. What is the eondi-
ton Of the vessel? Is 1t clean or un-
clean? The condition OF that vessel is
the point which determines whether it
will be used or cast aside. What is the
condition Of your heart and mine?
What is there that renders it unfit for
conduct the search, and He will reveal
the smut and the dirt and uncleanness
which now renders you unfit for His
service. What is it that can render the
vessel uneIean? Sin, you say, IN its
manifold forms and degrees. Yes. such
uncleanness is readily recognized and
understood. You do not need to be told
that it is that secret sin, that self-indul-
gence, that violation OF the laws of God
and man. But there is something else
besides the filth gathered by walking IN
forbidden paths and receiving unholy
things. The dish upon the shelf may be
unfit for use, not because it has come
in contact with the foul or unclean
thing, not because it has been used for
impure purposes, but just simply be-
cause 1t has been allowed to stand un-
used upon the shelf until the dust has
covered it. It was put away clean and
wholesome, but now it is unusahle be-
cause of the coating of black dust. And
SO it may be with the Christian He
may be unelean from disuse. He may
have lain upon the shelf of indfffer-
enee and neglect so long that the dust
has colleeted-the dust OF prayerless-
ness, the dust of no Bible reading, the
dust OF neglected duty, the dust, of Sab.
bath ease and neglect of church. And
Il the dust is there it must be cleaned
away, just the same as other foulness.
before the vessel can be meet for the
Masters use.

a Nd yet a favorfte figure used TO
1 y typify the humble disciple whom
Jesus loves to honor by filling with His
| presence and using in power and with
glory TO His name. is that of the clay,
the common clay from which IS made
the vessel fit for the Masters use.
Such thought brings cheer and encour-
agement to the poorest and weakest OF
Jesus disciples. One may not possess
the gold and silver of splendid train
ing and Abilities one may not be the
gold or the silver that graces and beauti
fes the conspicuous places, and that
fills the most prominent and impor-
tant positions. One may be only the
despised and unnotieed vessel Of wood
or of earth, and still be SO clean and
sanctif1ed that the Master as He
searches the shelves for vessels fit for
His use will. gladly take him and use
him AS the Master passes to and fro
through His house, think of what may
meet His gaze Shelves full OF yes
sells; enough for all the worldwide
purposes OF God The church is not
weak because OF lack OF numbers.
With the forces now marching under the
banner of the cross. Jesus could speedi-
1y win the world to Himself If those
forces were obedient to His will and re-
sponsiFe to His mighty power. AS the
Master passes through His housefe sees
plenty Of vessels. He finds there the
gold and the silver ones. How He longs
TO use them. How much more could
be accomplished with them than with
the c0mmoner vessels. How much the
world needs them. With eager hand He
reaches out and takes the gold and sill
yer vessel. He eovets 1t for His service
He has work for it to do. He looks
within. All! what is it that meets His
gaze? It is uneIea1. It is unfit for
use. Sadly He replaces this splendid
vessel and takes another to examine
So over the shelves He goes. The shad-
ows On His face deepen, the pain and
disappointment in His heart grow
more intense, until at last with a glad
cry way up on the top shelf out Of
sight and unnoticed and unknown He
discovers the common vessel Of clay
which is purged and clean and fit for
use. He takes it down. He says: This
will do" And into that common yes
sci He pours His grace and power until

der. The dirty spots must be secured
and the whole dish washed with hot va
ter and soap and then rinsed in clean,
hot water before it can be accepted for
further use And this illustrates most
important and vital truth in connection
with the Christian. He must be puFged
and clean before the Master will con-
sent to use him. And right here we must
emphasize the vast difference which
may exist between the Christian who is
being used by the Master and the Chris
tian who is using himself in the Mas
ter's name. Christian service does rot
always mean Christ service The
Christian in action does not always
mean Christ acting through the Chris
tan. The Christian must be purged. a
vessel unto honor, sanctifed, meet for
the Masters use, before he can be filed
with the presence and power OF Christ,
and thus prepared unto every good
work. How the Master is hindered by
the unclean vessels which are offeredfor
His use! How inpotent seems the serv-
ice OF many, many Christians! On
every hand We hear the cry that the pow
er and influence OF the church is wan
ing. The lack of growth is causing
alarm to the great denominations. and /
the reasons therefor are being sought
with the diligence and wisdom born of
men Various prescriptions are formu-
lated by the astute D. d. s, and from
time to time it is proposed to dope the
church with first one thing and then an
other. But despite all. the church con-
t1nues TO groan and suffer in i'll health, I
and yigor Of strength and power fails /
to return. The spiritual life and power
of the church is proportionate to the
spiritual life and power of the fndivid- I
ual members Of the church The spring
cannot rise above its source. and the
church cannot realize higher spiritual
strength and power than that of its
membership.

GO that the question Of the condi-
~ ton Of the church resolves itself
into one as to the condition of the in
dividual Christian. If the church is
not meet for the Masters use'' it is
because its members are not. II the
church lacks power it is because the
power of Christ is not flowing through
the individual Christian It the church
is not being used as a clean vessel
saGctifed. and meet for the Masters
use. the fault lies at the hearts door
Of the individual Christians, and the
remedy Is to be found not IN change
OF principles, or policy, or methods,
not In the adoption of new-fangled de-
vices, but in a purifying and cleansing
of the hearts and lives OF the individual
Christians in order that there may be
placed in the hands OF the Master yes
sells meet for His use. How much the
coming OF the Kingdom Of Jesus Christ
is hindered and delayed by the unclean
vessels which the Master is unable to
use we will never know until He at
last comes in glory and we know rs
we are known, but certain it is that the
world would have been brought to
Christ centuries ago if the vessels
which Christ needed in the accomplish
ment of His worldwide mission had
been kept clean and sanetified for His
use. Every great revival. every great
and glorious work accomplished for
Him. have been preceded by q cleansing
of the vessels that they might be used
for Him. Heart-searchtng prayer has
discovered the unc1ean places. the foul
stains Of sin, and the yielded will and
the reeonseerated purpose Of heart have
united with the quiekening Spirit to
cleanse and purify until the Master
could smilingIy say: This is a yes
sci which is fit for use will fill it
with My grace and power I will send
it forth blessed and to be blessing
And where there is lack Of spiritual
blessing and power It is always because
there are une1ean vessels, unfit for the
Masters use.
