donia.

Mr.. Editor: At the call and re-
quest of the chief executives of our
country the members of Macedonia
church and Others assembled at the
usual hour in the afternoon of Thurs
day. 25th ult. They went with CRATE
full and loving hearts to give thanks
to Almighty God for past blessings
and mercjes SO lavishly bestowed
upon the unmerited. The time was
well spent in 'praise and prayer. A
custom usually kept up by the
church was not omitted. A collection
was taken at both services in the
afternoon and at night and divided
among the most needy of the old
and afflicted people of our town and
community. AT the night service
Rev. J. F. Marshall Of Mccormick
preached the thanksgiving sermon
to q large aud attentive audience.
The sermon was fine, earnest and
impressive. Many returned to their
homes cheerful and thankful heliev-
ing that God was honored and well
pleased with the days service. The
following Sunday November 2sth,
ult. was a great day for the Sunday
schools and churches throughout
all Christendom. The Worlds TEN.
perance lesson was the theme to be
taught and discussed in all of the
Sunday schools and churches. The
Macedonia Sunday school believing
she was a part Of the great host of
Sunday school workers martialed
her forces and fell in line with the
great temperance workers Of the
world. Appropriate scriptural Sc
lections bearing on the subject were
earnestly and faithfully discussed
and deeply impressed on the minds
and hearts of the scholars. No COM
promise was considered, but total
destruction of the use and traffic Of
intoxicating liquors was the watch
word to the Sunday school. In the
afternoon we were honored and
much pleased with the presence Of
DR.. G. E.. Burts and Mr.. A. S.
Tompkins, Esq. DR.. Burts, who is
an able and noted temperance work
er, delivered one of his finest and
most powerful addresses on temper
ance to a large and very attentive
audience. The sermon was replete
In every respect and doubtless made
many deep and lasting impressions
for good which will be long re-
membered and cherished by our
people. Mr.. A. S. Tompkins follow
ed along the same line with timely
and appropriate remarks. Among
other things said by Mr.. Tompkins
was this regretful and sad truth
that some of III people + being
cheated and fooled by a certain low
down class of men who are using
them as a tool and consequently
leading them into great trouble.
We hope that they may take heed
and profit by the remarks, at the
close of the sermon and addresses
oy our brethren, DR.. Burts and Mr..
A. S. Tompkins. The congregation
showed their. deep appreciation and
gratitude to the brethren by a rising
vote.

Rev. xxi, 4; xxx, 3. But the creation shall not have the benefit of the atone ment till the coming of Christ with his saints, and the saints must wait for their redeemed bodies till the resur- rection of the righteous at His coming to the air for His saints. These two events will bring to the saints and to the earth the full benefit of the inde- scribable sufferings of the Lord Jesus (Rom. viii, 1923; Phil. iii. 20, 2D.
 But what about health now2 The great thing now is to live in the love of God and the will of God, ceasing all strife about methods of healing or modes of baptism and whole heartedly seeking to hasten His kingdom by giv- ing the gospel to every creature, that His church may be completed and that He may come again. Thus wholly oc- cupied with Him and His affairs we can rely upon Him to include in "all these things" all the health necessary in His service to glorify Him (Matt. vi. 33). The remainder of our lesson refers to disciple named Tabitha or
 
 nigh to Lydda (verse 3S). She mani fested her faith by her works and by her self denying labors for others. While we are saved wholly through the finished work of the Lord Jesus by faith alone without any works of ours, if it is a living, saving faith there will certainly be manifest in our lives the hnf us to walk in (Rom. iv. .; xii, i. 2; Eph. ii. S-10; Tit. iii 5. Sl.
 This disciple, full of works of faith and labors of love, became sick and died. She departed to be with Christ, which is very far better. She was ab- sent from the body and present with the Lord She had really gained Phil. 1. 21. 23; II Cor. V. S). It would be unscriptural to say that she had gone to her reward, for rewards are not given to the righteous at death, but at the coming of Christ, at the judgment seat of Christ. which is for the re- deemed only Rev. xxii, 12; Luke xiv, 1D. She was in good health and rest ing from her labors in the presence of | Him whom she so loved. Now, con slider the conduct of these other dis ciples. Peter is sent for, and the weep ing widows take pains to show him the coats and garments which Dorcas had made. Peter put them all out. and in answer to his prayer Dorcas comes back from the spirit world and re- | enters the mortal body and is given back to her weeping friends. Well, that certainly proved. as did the heal ing of Aeneas, that Jesus was still alive, and the very same Jesus as when in His sojourn on earth He healed the sick and raised the dead. The incident was also the means of leading many to /, believe in the Lord.
 But consider whether these weep ing disciples were thinking more of Dorcas welfare or their own when they so desired to have her back on earth. and is not all mourning for those who are with Christ simply an indica- ton of sorrow for ourselves? If to the believer ito die is gain," what was 1t | to Dorcas or Lazarus to return?

 ICopyright, 1909. by American Press Association ]
 The lesson committee seems to have been led to continue the studies con corning Peter for some weeks yet, re- serving the conversion of Saul until we take up the story of the gospel more fully given to the gentileS. We last saw Peter and John in Samaria, working with Philip, and then on their way back to Jerusalem, preach ing the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans (viii, 25). Peter went about a good deal, in Jesus name win ming souls and building up the saints, and now we find him with the saints at Lydda It may help some to be reminded that God calls all true be- lievers saints See Rom. i, '; 1 Cor. i. 2 (omit the italics); Eph i, 1; Phil. i. l. Col i, ?, and note that the worst of sinners when they truly receive the Lord Jesus are by His blood equally washed and sanctihed and justified q Cor. vi, oil: Heb. X, 1O-1A. The standing before God in Christ of all the redeemed Is the same. for all are members of His body. a part of Him. self. Down here in our daily life our walk should correspond with our standing, but the experience of Chris tians is not always true Christian eX- perlence. so there is room for sanctifi- cation and growth in grace every day John xvii. IT: II Pet. iii, 1S).
 Among the saints at I.ydda was one who had been eight years in bed, sick of palsy. but the power of Christ, through Peter, gave him perfect health in moment, and one result was that the whole town and neigh borhood turned to the Lord. We trust that it was with them as with the Thessalonians, who turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God and to wait for His Son from heaven" q Thess. i, 9, JO. This incl dent and other miraclesoof healing by the apostles give rise to such ques- tions as. Is the health of the body in cluded in the atonement, and, If so, why are not more believers healed in an swer to prayer? It is made very plain that the great atonement of the Lord Jesus includes the body as well as the soul of every true believer, and. more than that the planet called earth on which we live. and In due time the whole earth. shall be filed with the glory of God and there will be no more curse nor sorrow nor crying noI death on the whole earth Qsa. xi, g.
