est and most beautiful in man. To
keep Gods commandments constitutes
the whole duty of His children. Jesus
mission to the world was to this end
To beget through love fear of God
which should lead to the obedience of
His commandments was the work of
Jesus Christ. To carry this fear into
the world and tell it unto all creation.
was Jesus purpose in sending out the
apostles with the story of His life.
ST. Luke 12:4-5 reports Jesus as say
ing: BE not afraid of them that Kill
the body, and after that have no more
that they can do. But | will forewarn
you whom re shall fear: Fear Him
which after he hath killed, hath power
to cast into hell; yea, l say unto you
fear Him" Hear the fear of this
world" is brought clashing against the
fear of God" Jesus had just pro-
nounced his terrible denunciation
against the scribes, Pharisees and
hypocrites. They were all, of course,
present and lined up against Him
listening for something whereby they
might bring Him into court. The anger
at His words, and their hatred for Him
showing on their faces, as well as by
their conduct, lead Jesus to speak these
words in regard to fear in order to
calm the anxiety and fears of His deci-
pies Said He, all the evil of past Jew
ish history. yea, even from the begin
ming of the world will be required of
this generation. The blood of Abel,
the blood Of prophets even unto Zaca-
rias will come up as an account for our
sel GN.f1 NnalV
the God who will bring this generation
into account rather than the fury of
these people or their rulers. For there
is nothing covered that shall no. be re-
vealed; neither hid that shall not be
known; whatever we have spoken in
darkness shall be heard i'm the light;
and that which We have spoken in the
ear in the closets shall be proclaimed
upon the housetops"
Gods love for the world of man led
Him to reveal His commandments for
their safety and happiness. These
commandments have in various ways
and forms percolated into the philoso-
ply, religion, and law of all civilized
nations This is Gods will. He has
ordered it SO. Gods love for His chill
dren has impelled Him TO fill the world
with His law. Jesus was His great
agent Succeeding Jesus, God chose
the apostles Since then He has en-
ployed the preacher. the lawyer, states
man, philosopher, churches, societies
and nations to herald the laws of life
and happiness. This has been done at
the expense of martyrs blood. Count
less stories of prosecutions and sacri-
fees may be told, all of which swell the
evidence that God has gone to great
and awful expense to tell this world
how and what to do. In view of all
this, is needs only the simple. pure and
honest heart to see that the Heavenly
Father who has so loved and acted for
the welfare of His children, will de-
mand an awful settlement of those
stewards who abuse those children. No
secret counsel of so-called financiers
Io corner the markets and rob Gods
poor VII escape His eye h will tell
i'm the light all schemes made in the
night TO defeat His justice. Not only
the devils of Hades. but the white,
black and yellow devils Of the political,
social and business world will pay ev
cry farthing their deviltry has cost
with usury.
There is nothing covered that shall
not be revealed" This must necessari-
ly be true. True of both good and bad
influences. Influences that rebound
with crushing or perplexing effect, de-
pending wholly upon the spirit of the
one inaugurating them. The human
race is like the great ocean. stone
thrown into the deep tends to destroy
its equilibrium. Though by its gravity
and molecular powers, it seeks to
overcome the disturbance of the foreign
element, yet the little stones influence
ripples on and on until it has jostled
the peace of the whole mighty body of
water The figure is true to fact. The
human race is that whole mighty body
OF life, which by it's earthly ties and
heavenly affections constantly seeks to
be at peace. But selfishness casts the
stone that jostles neighbor against
neighbor, state against state, nation
against nation. until the whole world
has been dashed into fury. 1t makes
no difference how cautiously or quietly
we cast the stone the disturbance be-
gins and will not end until it has regis
tereu its ill-begotten purpose of wreck
and ruin upon the tender hearts of all
the earth's suffering millions. Mr.
White. New York's notorious libertine,
could plan and perpetrate in secret a
deed of hell but ii jostled off pistol
shot and revealed through court and
press, the evil life of the man who fired
the shot, as well as the corrupt life of
half a dozen families, and brought
about about the wreck of an immense
fortune. But, that which we have read
on the surface in regard to this unnam-
able crime is only the infinitesimal
part of one foul hands influence. What
are the awful secrets still untold that
like lead deep down in the suffer-
ing heart of the social body, seeking
slowly but surely to shout from the
house tops other unnamable crimes Of
horror? Listen not to the wit-starved
