ages was that which took place in tAe
garden at the dawn of human history.
The supreme victory was that which
was won by the Son of God when He
into the world, and endured all
the temptations and trials to which
man is subject and yet without sin.
His first victory was a personal n
over sin. His second victory was the
victory over death. His first victory
prepared Him to become the worlds
Saviour, and brought Him to that sec
ond battlefield where the deliverance Of
the human race vas wrought rs He
went upon the cross and became sin for
us. We sing Of Jesus as the Great De-
~liverer, as the Mighty C~onqueror, az
the Victorious King. And such He 10.
He went through all the conflict OF life,
He experienced every struggle which
RACES upon the battlefield of the soul.
and He was always victorious. He
never knew defeat.
. UT such cannot be said OF any other
IL man who has aver lived. The bat
ties rage within the human heart and
defeat is constantly written upon tts
banners. Struggle ever so bravely, win
ever so many partial victories, and
still defeat is known, and sin and its
are present. But it need
not be so if the soul relies upon the
Almighty Conqueror, Christ Jesus. Our
text suggests the certain pathway TO
sure Hictory-"Through u Lord Je-
sus Christ Thanks be unto God"
Paul exclaims, who giveth us the VIC
tory through our Lord Jesus Christ"
Victory. through Christ. Man through
out the centuries since his first defeat
has been seeking the secret OF victory;
and he has found that the only victory
which he himself can win is transitory
and incomplete. But victory may De
won through Christ. Victory through
our own efforts, no. But victory
through Christ always. What o
glad message to the human heart Is
this. Who is there who has struggled
for victory over the flesh and the
worlds allurements, and suffered re-
peated and frequent defeat, who is not
glad 10 zeal that there is a way OF VIC
tory? Who is there who has not felt at
times as though it "a a hopeless and
useless struggle? Who has not felt
like making unconditional surrender
to all the selfish and evil desires in his
nature? Who has not felt like crying
out with Paul: ooh, wretched man
that l am, who shall deliver me from
the body of this deCth?"

THIS conflict began away back in the
/ beginning, when Adam and Eve
fought out the issue Of good and evil
In the garden and met defeat because
they left God out of their reckoning.
The record Of hat battle has come
down to us through the ages, and w.
cry life since then has come under the
shadow of that defeat. Adams defeat
has brought all the human race under
the dominion of sin and death. But
eyer as by one man sin entered into
the world and death by sin, so by one
man, the man Christ Jesus, there came
life and salvation into the world by His
victory over sin and death. How the
nation looks for the hero who shall
deliver it from the bondage of the op-
p~ressor! A David for Israel; a We'll
Ifngton for Europe; Q Washington for
America, s Garcia TOR Cuba And as
nations in bondage need a deliverer,
so the human race dnder the bondage
Of sin needed a deiiverer. Jesus was to
eight over again the battle where Adam
lost and thus bring back to man the
purity and the blessing which he lost
in Adam. Ths supreme defeat Of the

The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1904-10-01

. UT the greatest battlefield which
u Heaven or earth has seen is that
which is found within the human soul.
On that place Of conflict have been
fought out questions and issues which
have to do not only with time but with
eternity. Every soul knows what this
conflict means. Some have more des-
perate battles to fight thar others;
some have to wage the silent warfare
within until the very life's blood seems
to be forcing its way through the sweat
glands, and the anguish Of spirit would
crush out the very life; while others
experience the ordinary battles, and
know sometimes defeat and sometimes
victory. The few endure the supreme
conflicts, but all experience the inner
fightings and strivings. The soul is a
constant battle-ground. 1t is the place
where man decides the great issues of
life and eternity. 1t is the place from
which there sounds forth the cry of
defeat or victory. Never did warrior
on battlefield, as he ~contended hand to
hand with the determined foe, realize
more fully what conflict means than
does the soul to which comes the bitter
strife, the c~ontending of the forces OF
good and evil. 1t is within the soul
that a man decides whether self or
God shall rule; it is within the oul
that desire and duty wage their des-
perate strife; it is within the soul that
righteousness contends with upright
e~ousness, truth with error, Gods spirit
with the spirit of the evil one. We all
know what it means to speak Of the
soul as a battle-ground. 1t is a scene
of conflict from which mar can never
separate himself. The worlds battle
fields change, here to-day and there to-
morrow, and seldom Is a second battle
fought upon the same ground and over
the same issue. but the greatest of all
battlefelds, the human soul, is the con-
slant recurring scene of warfare, and
over and over again the soul finds It
must fight against the besetting sin,
the prevailing weakness, the persistent
temptation.
