HEZEKIAH'S GREAT REFORM.
II Chronicles sO-June II.

Man looketh on the outward ap-
pearance, but the Lord looketh on
the heart ~ Samuel 1851.
King Hezekiah Of Judah has a Won
derful record as a man of God, ce-
former. a patriot, yet he was the son
of a bad father, who ma turn was the
son Of a good father. Who in turn
was the son OF a bad father. Tne
alteration between good and bad for
four generations illustrates the fact
that, although heredity has much to
do with every member of our race.
nevertheless, there are counter-bal-
ances in nature.
We are all members of Adams fam
lily, and as such we are all sharers
in the general weakness. mental, NOR
al and physical, which for six thou
sand years has descended upon us.
ST. Paul refers to this. saying, by
one mans disobedienoe sin entered
into the world, and death as the re-
suit of sin; and thus death passed
upon all men, because all are sin
ners. Romans SIP.
The downward or sinful tendency
inbred in our very constitution Is so
strong that none Is able fully to over
come IL. The best that any of us
can do is TO set our Wills in opposi-
ton to our inherited weaknesses and
to fight courageously against them.
The Apostle assures us that If Il
we're possible for humanity to fully
gain such a victory over its fallen self
as to bring itslef back to perfection
then doubtless God would have pro-
vided that way of salvation.
But that way being impossible. God
provided another method, for our re-
turn to him-through the merit of
Christ's death. "ths Just for the un-
Just" and through Messiah's assist

time is confined to those Who volun-

there goes out Divine blessing from
the Lords sanctiled people-from all
the consecrated of the household Of
faith-to the people in general-to
their neighbors, their friends and Wis
itors from afar. Let such be our in
fiuence amongst men. In this con-
nection let us remember the power Of
the tongue, of which the Apostle said,
Herewith praise we God, and there
with curse (or injure1 we men," Let
our tongues and all our powers be
used In blessing the people as we'll as
in praising our God.
The King wisely began his reform
alton at the temple and gave the
priests and Levites the first share
therein. II was later that the idols
of the city of Jerusalem were gather
ed and hurled into the valley of Ked-
ron, and it was after the fervor Of the
Passover occasion that the zeal Of the
| people in general rose high, and they
went forth all over the land, destroy
ing the idols, the groves of Baal, and
every symbol of disloyalty to God.
And so today; everywhere the light
of our day is showing more and more
Of the meanness, selfishness, corrup-
tion-some of II centuries old, and
some Of it bred of special privilege
and opportunity The call for reform
is heard on every hand, although
sometimes but feeble. The proper
place for reform is, as in Hezekiah's
day with the sanctihcation of the
priests and Levites themselves.
Reverence the Teachings of the Book
aud Significance OF the Cross.
Let US not forget this; and after
having seen to our own heart puri-
fcation in harmony with God let US
proceed to the cleansing Of the Sane
tuary. Idols and traditions of men in
the form Of venerable creeds Of the
past are defling the Temple of God.
These must be gotten rid Of The
vessels Of the Lords house must be
cleansed Of all defilements-thei hui
man traditions, heather philosophers
and superstitions. We must no long
er worship a book and a cross, but
must reverence the teachings of the
Book and the significance Of the
cross.
If the Church of Christ could but
faithfully perform her responsibility
under the direction of the King, it
would mean a great revival of reil-
gion. II would mean the sanctifying
OF the people. It would mean the
casting out of the idols of mammon--
selhshness. filthy lucre and worldly
fame, and a general bowing down Of
men to the Giver of every good and
perfect gift.

the Levites began cleansing work
II required eight days TO carry out
the rubbish from the court. etc. Then
the priests, who alone we're authorized
10 enter into the Holy, or temple prop
er, we're directed to cleanse the temple
itself.
But as a prliminary work, before
the cleansing of the court or the tenn
pie began. the King directed that the
priests and the Levites sanctify them
selves afresh to the Lord and His SER
vice How appropriated How in har-
mony with the words of the Prophet
Isaiah. who lived at that time and who
was the Kings counselor-"Be ye
clean. that bear the vessels of the
Lords housei'-Isa. 52.11.
It is an important thought that nc
one is properly ready to render SER
vice to God in any form or work until
he himself has come to a sanctiied
condition Of heart in relationship to
the Lord.
Applying this feature TO reforms Of
our day. we concede the propriety ol
ministers of Christ taking a promin'
ent part In respect to all religious re-
forms. In proportion as such have in
fiuence with the people, good may b'
accomplished.
But let us not forget the instruction
Of st. Peter upon this subject. Compar
ing the priesthood of Israel with thu
institutions of the Christian church
St Peter gives us the thought that tn
priests of olden times do not md theii
| aptitxnes in the clergy of today, but II
Gods sanity or sanctiied people
whether In or out Of the public min
istry And the antitypical Levites o
today are in general the household o
faith.
Thus st. Peter says 10 all Of thu
consecrated Church of Christ, "Ye arr
a Royal Priesthood. a Holy Nation
a peculiar people. that ye should show
/ forth the praises of him who has call
ed you out of darkness into his mar
velous light"
The great King commands his con
secrated people to purify the templ'
Of God, which is the Church, 'fron
all hlthiness Of the flesh and spirit
perfecting holiness In the reverence o
the Lord" g Cor 7:1) In proper
ton as this is done. a blessed influ-
ence will go forth from the temple o
God, the true Church, far reaching
upon all those who live Righteousness
and hate iniquity.
The Divine Blessing.
The conclusion Of the feast was Z
Divine blessing upon all the people
through the Priests and Levites. 81
