Triumph Of Faith.

The trial was almost more than he
could endure. but his faith stood the test
of the terrific struggle Unfiinchingly he
trusted God. He had learned by his fail
ure in the past to obey the literal COM
mands of God. Faith reveals itself best
in the souls of men in action, according
to the command of God. His faith never
failed him, although his feet reeled and
his heart was almost breaking He did
not waver when his beloved son, who in
his young manhood lhis exact age at this
time is unknown had been such a COM
fort. cheer and courageous companion for
him. asked where was the lamb He
bade their comrades in the journey fare
Well for season. as he and Issac went
in accordance with Gods command to
worship. Words cannot picture the hid
den emotions of the patriarch's heart.
His reply to Isaac and his words to
the servants cannot bear an accurate in
depreciation. He believed that God could
restore the lad from the dead II was
this that enabled him to speak as he
did and possibly persuade Isaac to take
his place on the altar. What he said at
that time to his son when the critical
hour came has not been recorded 1t is
matter of establishment. admiration and
an achievement of faith that he was
persuaded in SO short a period to take
his place as the victim, proving that he
was fitted by faith to become Abraham's
heir
The moral lesson of this trial is the
same to the Jew as we'll as the Christian.
The Jew sees in the sacrifice merito-
rious deed that he makes the basis OF
his prayers for compassion. The Chris

the sins Of men by the Heavenly Father
with faint suggestion in Abraham OF
what it cost God because He so loved the
world that He gave. His only begotten
son that whatsoever beleveth in Him
should not perish. but have everlasting
life
Possibly it was at that time that Abra-
ham saw Christ's day. for there never
was a more favorable moment in his life
to receive the great revelation than the
one when he offered up his son Isaac,
Mount Moriah was a foregleam of CAL

to receive the largest blessing from our
trials We must enter them I'm accordance
with His commands and be obedient to
His directions with a faith that realizes
His presence, power and purpose to help
when ever We need His assistance. He
will not call us to sacrifice human life.
for He taught by this lesson His abhor-

upon us to learn that He says Il desire

o. an insane act Our view has been shaped
by the outcome of Abrahams trial. The
desire that has moved the most godly
men in all ages, has been to offer God
the very best possible gifts. Dode truly
says that to offer God cheap sacrifices
while we retain for ourselves what is
truly precious is a kind of worship that
betrays our low estimate of God rather
than expresses true devotion"
When Abraham, who had been devot-
ing all his thought 10 the training o.
Isaac. was put to the test. he responded
by an immediate preparation to make the
demonstrating that he was willing to
obey the call Of duty.
The severity of the trial is apparent
in the surrender demanded of the son
under any circumstances, but we have
only to recall the peculiar circumstances
of his life to realize how great was the
fountain of affection that was controlled
