Retrospect and Prospect.

L am now ready to be offered" What
ever may be our viewpoint, it is solemn
thing TO stand consciously i'm the pres
ence of death; to know that In little
while the blow will fall and our earthly
career will have ended Especially is this
true when we are in possession of all cur
intellectual and spiritual powers Such
was Paurs condition. He was i'm prison.
The first Part of his trial was over. He
was awaiting it's second and last stage.
He knew that the verdict would be-
death. The Greek reads Il am now being
poured out as a libation.'' His work was
ended. Only one thing remained Like
his Lord. he would be offered upon the
altar of sacrifice.
Well, how did it appear to Paul in that
hour? Never more glorious. He had
fought a coed fight" Since tina. Da-
mascus unwilling, life had been a cease
less conflict. Enemies had arisen In every
city and town and hamlet to which lie
had gone. They had outnumbered hin.
but they had never conquered hi n. Evsry
where he had been a victor. Like flow
ers that spring up on CORY battlefield.
churches had arisen in every city. They
were the promise of final and universal
victory. Yes, it was good fight
He had finished the course Like the
Athenian racer he had bent all his pow
ers to reach the goal: and he was sue
cessful. He had finished it with joy"
What cared the contestant in those
games for fatigue pain? His eye was
on the myrtle wreath that should crown
him at the close. And so Paul looked
ever beyond the dust, the pain, the
shame of the present TO the glory OF
the future. He had been running for
earthly glory thrilled and fascinated
him.

"Preach the Word"

This word Word, as here used. includes
all that follows-the what the when. the
how. 1t means the gospel-all that is
contained in the life and death of our
Lord: all it provides for us and all It
requires of us. This is to be our cease
less business. I'm season and out of
season." The meaning is that this is not
a matter which may be deferred until a
favorable opportunity. If opportunity
does not offer it must be made. This
gospel is so important, the need Of it's
presentation is so pressing. that 1t is al
ways in order. The Greek word for in
slant means pressing, importunate. And
SO preaching means work, whether in the
pulpit or in the pew-ceaseless. tireless
work.
"Reprove. rebuke. exhort.' Different
conditions require different methods.
Whatever the condition of those with
whom you mingle. the gospel has for
them a message. So that the minister
and teacher should study. not the gospel
only, but those also to whom 1t Is to be
preached But IL the message varies the
methods OF presenting 1t may never vary.
Whether the message be one of terror or
of consolation, 1t is to be proclaimed In
love.
