TOPIC, DESCENT FROM HEAVEN
Rev. J. s. Thomson breaches Christ
mas Sermon at independent
Church of Christ

Rev. j. s. Thomson, pastor Of the
Independent Church Of Christ preached
a sermon on "Christ's Descent from
Heaven yesterday. He said:
Millions Of years ago there was no
life on this planet The heat was too
great then for the existence of any liv-
ing creature. The earth passed through
a long process of cooling and it finally
became fit for vegetation and the lower
forms of animal life. Man came upon
the earth as the last immigrant. He
was not here at one time; he Is here
now, and giving a good account of him
self
Whence came he? Let Christ answer
this question. "I came down from
heaven, not to do mine own will, but
the will Of him who sent me-" He came
from a place, according to his own
words, 1t is a glorious place. 1t is GER
tainly star. The wise men of the
east saw it's light and rejoiced. Christ's
life is the grand revelation of human
life, and, therefore, we have all come
from homes mot made with hands,"
and is Paul says, we are strangers
and pilgrims" in the world Christ
said that God sent him and that he
did not come of himself. The great
souls of the ages did not rush madly
after great tasks. Such men as Moses,
Solomon, Cromwell and the present
pope realized the great responsibility
of their callings. SO with the Divine
Master, Gods will and Christ's will
were not always in agreement. Christ
himself teaches this. In the garden of
sorrow Christ's will and Gods will were
not the same. Gods will is the purpose
of our earthly life Christ, as child
In his mothers arms, did not know the
mighty works he would perform; nor
did he then know that he"had left his
splendid mansion to be the sun of
righteousness for the world. He did
not remember his past then. After the
baptism in the Jordan he remembered
his old home. The deepest thought
connected with our Christmas festivi-
ties is that we have been sent into
this world to fulfill a purpose of God.
that we ought to keep Gods will and
not our own wills, and that each one
of us has divine authority for his mis-

lesson from Christ, teaching us the
beauty of faith which does not come
from reason nor depend upon sensible
things, but is the pure gift of God
Because thou hast seen me, Thomas,
thou hast believed; blessed are they
that have not seen and have believed.
st Thomas, as an apostle, brings
us close to the day and presence of
Christ and marks as essential that
which is a characteristic of the true
church Of Christ, the apostolic success
sion AS we study the history of Chris
tianity we are impressed with the
great fact of an organization bearing
the name of Christ and in that name
laying down as a condition of salvation
belief in the gospel which IL breaches
and the necessity of conformity with
the moral code which it advocates. We
trace that organization through its his
tory to its source and we are again
impressed by the still more important
fact that Christ did establish an organ
ization called his church and confded
1t with his authority and his doctrine
TO those whom he called his apostles.
Apostles Great Teachers
Throughout the length and breadth
of the world. to countries uncivilized
as well as civilized, in all the ages
which separate us from the days of
Christ on earth, the apostles of Christ
have gone forth bearing the message
of civilization and teaching the truths
of Christ's gospel as they were re-
ceived from the apostles. Sent by those
whom Christ sent, they are the teach
ers of mankind in the things of God,
the makers of nations, the directors of
mans destiny; Christianity has changed
the face of the earth. Neither oriental
philosopher nor Greek or Roman scho-
ar nor the mighty deeds of the great
barbarian nations have determined our
civilization. The great determining fac
tor has been Christianity and the glory
of our civilization is wholly by reason
of what there is Christian in It.
"St. Thomas, the great apostle of
the resurrection, is patron saint of this
parish His love for Christ is a model
of what your love should be. His les
son to you is that Christ should be to
you all the way, the truth, and the
life His courage and devotion should
you, If necessary, to go and die with
Christ rather than have him aban-
doned to stand by faith, to live for 1t
and, If necessary, to die for it. He is
the apostle of the resurrection, attest
ing to us in unmistakable evidence the
great truth of the risen Saviour. Bless
ed doubt which has strengthened the
faith of mankind in the real Christ. His
noble expression of belief in his Lord
and his God should lead us to a like
of faith in that fundamental
principle of all Christianity, that Christ
the Son of God, became man and died
for us and rose from the dead. In this
day Of little knowledge of the incarna-
ton, when men protesting Christianity,
yet deny his divinity, we need the faith
of st. Thomas to cry out with him,
My Lord and my God. st. Thomas,
the apostle, loved Christ and died for
his faith and by his blood the church
of Christ has been strengthened, for
the blood of the martyrs is the seed of
the church"

Bishop Conaty breaches Sermon on
the Life of st. Thomas, for
Whom the Church Is
Named

The patronal feast of the Church of
st. Thomas the Apostle was celebrated
yesterday morning with a solemn, high
mass, at which Rt. Rev. Bishop Thorn
as j. Conaty assisted, robed in cappa
magma. The solemn mass, corum epis-
copo, was celebrated by Rev. ]. j..
Clifford, pastor of the church. Rev.
Joseph Marion acted as assistant priest
and Rev. p. H. Mcdonald, C. NJ, and
]. E. Lilley, C. NJ, as deacons of hon
or; Rev. Francis ]. Conaty, deacon of
the mass; Rev. P. j. McNellis, sub
deacon, and Rev. c. Molony, master of
ceremonies.
Bishop Conaty preached the sermon
on THE Apostolic Character of the
Church" He said in part:
This church bears the name of one
of Christ's apostles, St. Thomas, other
wise known as Didymus. Thomas is
the Hebrew name and Didymus the
Greek, and both have the same signifi-
cation and meaning, which is twin y
St. Thomas was Jew, born in Galilee
his aVocation being that of fisherman.
His candor, simplicity and fervor of
soul made him beloved among the apos-
ties. He was called by Christ to be his
apostle and the divine grace to which
he corresponded brought to him that
strength of intelligence and that manli-
ness of character which became his
characteristics.
Thomas InquisitiVe
when the apostles warned Christ OF
danger their warning stirred the depths
of the love in the heart of st. Thomas
and i'm the fullness Of his courage he
said: Let us also go that we may die
with him. He was man of inquiring
mind, anxious to understand thorough
L.. IA \ 4
Recall that great discourse after the
last supper and the answer given tC
the inquiry of st. Thomas, bringing
from Christ that beautiful expression
i am the way, the truth, and the life.
OF all the apostles, st. Thomas wa:
the only one who questioned sharply
the apparition of Christ, demanding q
sensible evidence before he would be-
lieVe that Christ was truly risen. Il
was not that his faith in his DiVin'
Master was weak or tht he had any
doubt as TO the fulfllment of the prom
ise of Christ, but the inquiring char
acter of his mind led him to demand
evidence beyond that OF the mer,
statement of the apostles. The very
doubt which led to the demand fol
sensible evidence gives us the strong
est material proof of the resurrection
of Christ. How kind the love of Christ
satisfying the doubt of Thomas; how
ferVent and noble the belief of Thomas
when his hand had touched the sacred
flesh. My Lord and my God Is the ex
preston of firm, unalterable faith. HI

and object Of his love; he proclaim
him God and man and bears solemn
witness to the two natures in Christ
