The Worlds Redeener.

In 50 far as We escape - overcome the

restraining power OF the worlds divine
Redeemer.

word used i'll speaking of the transhgura-

This transt;tsurato ton of the mind means

old things are passed away and all things
become new. 1t is this metanofphoSiS.
this change into a new life that enables
us to escape conformity to the world
Without this renewing and Transforming
influence of the Holy Spirit We will con-
tinue to love the things of the world. Ii
we love not the world it is because We
have been born again. and the new life
has awakened love for the eternal things
and distrust of temporal things.

Love for Another World.

The Christian cannot love this world
or the things Of this world. Yet he does
not become one who is without a coun-
try.
There is another world for which theii
deepest love is aroused. "A better coun-
try that is an heavenly in which God
hath prepared for them city" 1t is
the land that Christ has told us of, and OF
which the poet so sweetly sings:
'.There is land far away mid the stars, we
told.
Where we know not the sorrows Of time:
Where the pure waters wander through valleys
of gold,
And life is treasure sublime.
'Tis the land of our God. IFS the nome OF the
soul.

that great progress will be made in Sc
curing the balance Of $8.475
Churchmen Of Washington of large
means are being asked to help raise
the balance, and from the encourage
ment which has met the members of
the committee, who are also antici-
pating modest donations, during the
past few weeks they are sanguine that
the goal will be reached shortly.
In their arguments for subscriptions
it is pointed out that Washington
should do all in it's power to aid such
an institution as the mission, which
aims to help men who through mis-
fortune or Wrongdoin" are in need.
Employment is furnished to the able
bodied. and the weak and sick are
aided according to their needs, while

A Living Death.

Again the world invites you to give
your time. your whole heart to the
amusements and pleasures Of fashion
and the gaycties of social life. il
promises you enjoyment and satisfac-
ton. How is the promise kept? There
Is more unrest and WEAKNESS Of soul
and less happiness in all the rounds Of
social gayety than anywhere else in
the world. In it are the pangs of dis
appointment and death. At best it is
q living death.
"She that liveth in pleasure is dead
while she liveth." Il Tim. 5:6.)
Could there be any stronger language
employed to portray the unhappy con
dition Of those who seek their chief
enjoyment in worldly pleasures.

The Perfect Test.

The trouble is not in loving wealth or
distinction, but it is the kind OF riches
and honors which is preferred that marks
the difference between the wording ana
the Christian; and that difference always
depends upon whether it is God or some
thing else that is first in the hearts al
fections.
This is the unfailng test. God nrst,
God supreme in the hearts love and there
can be no undue love of the world. Ihe
highest pleasures in the world are not
denied to the Christian.
Those who love not the world have
the best of II when this life alone is con-
side red. Religion in its very nature en-
larges the pleasures OF life, and makes
it the most enjoyable possible to man. 1t
does not forbid any amusement or en-
joyment except such as interferes with
the attainment of happiness and content
ment 1t only forbids pleasures that are
hurtful such as appeal to the lower at
tributes OF human nature. and in the IN
diligence of which are sown the seeds OF
misery.
