Power, Program, Presence.

We probably have not a complete rec
ord of the conference that was carried
on between Jesus and the 500 disciples,
who represented the visible fruitage of
the ministry of the Master. Jesus met
them as the leader OF a worldwide
conquering host. To assure them of
the certainty OF the success of the
movement that was to extend beyond
the hmits Of a national loyalty to the
needs of>nlan as men, Jesus revealed
the power that was given to him be-
fore the foundation of the world
There was no limit to His authority
or power. for all in heaven and on
earth had been committed to Him
Jesus made a claim that only God could
make, but by His resurrection He had
demonstrated that He WAS God so that
the transcendent claim which He made
does not seem after the lapse of CEN
turies to be novel or preposterous.
Having filled them with the coufi-
dence that Jesus himself possessed of
the certain success OF His cause the
Master gave them a mission that was
the greatest ever given to men The
Christ that had been rejected expected
that these disciples would succeed
where He had failed, during His min
istry. by evangelizing every creature.

TOPiC:
Gems from My Reading. Prov, 2:I-I2.

Entering the portico, in Genesis. we
pass through the portrait galleries of
the historical books, extending to the
end of the kingdom: find the music
room in the Psalms, where the Spirit,
sweeping the keyboard of human ma
ture. touches every chord from the low
moan of the Fifty-first, all dripping
with tears. Have mercy upon me, o
God. to the swelling note of the
Twenty-fourth. Lift up your heads, o
ye gates: pass through the business
office in Proverbs; the chapel. in Ec-
clesiastes, echoing with the voice of
the preacher: the conservatory in the
Song of Solomon, fragrant with the
rose of Sharon and the lily of the val
ley, with all trees of frankincense,
with pleasant fruits and allspices.
smelling like Lebanon: then look into
the observatories of the prophets. with
telescopes of various sizes. pointing
some toward near and some toward
distant stars. but all brought to bear
upon the bright and morning star
about to rise. Passing on, we enter the
audience chamber of the king, in the
gospel, viewing the Lord from four
standpoints; next witness the Holy
Spirit performing His office work, in
the Acts; inspect the correspondence
rooms, in the Epistles-With Paul and
Peter and James and John aud Jude,
each al his desk; and finally gaze upon
the dazzling splendors of the throne
room, in Revelations.

A Mine of Gems.

In your search for the gems of truth
and wisdom turn TO the books of the
Old and New Testaments.
For the improvement of the mind
there is no text book equal to the
Bible.
The psalmist understood how wisdom
and understanding were to be found.
"Oh, how l love Thy law" he ex-
claims 1T is my meditation all the
day Thou through Thy commandments
hast made me wiser than mine enc
mics. | have more understanding than
all my teachers: for Thy testimonies
are my mediation. / understand more
than the ancients; because / keep Thy
precepts."
The only use of the gems of thought
found in our reading is that they may
make us better-add to our mental
and moral Improvement
The greatest men of the world have
testified that they found the Bible the
source of highest mental AS well as
moral development
Milton said: There are no songs
comparable to the songs of Zion, no
orations equal to those of the prophets
and no politics like those which the
scriptures teach.

the erection of the church.
During his pastorates he built the
Southern Methodist Church at Warren

and when he was sent to the pastorate
of the Wilkens Avenue Church in Bal

The Gem of Gems.

The gem from my reading which
stands out paramount and far above
any other words from pen or tongue
is this:
"God so loved the world that He gave
His only begotten son. that whosoever
believeth in Him should not perish. but
have everlasting life"

beauty of it's wording and sentiment.

''Tofation to the

Topic for Episcopal Clergy Special
Sermons Tomorrow in Diocese of
Washington.

Protestant Episcopal clergy of the
diocese of Washington are to preach
special sermons tomorrow on 'voca-
tion to the Sacred Ministry" in re-
sponse to request from the Bishop of
Washington.
In his request Bishop Harding says:
'Tn pursuance of a request made in
a resolution passed by the Ember
Guild on September 16, AID. 1914, I
would venture to suggest that you
would preach to your congregation on
the third Sunday in Advent, being the
18th instant. on Vocation to the Sa-
cred Ministry" The number of the
clergy is so few for the large harvests
waiting to be reaped, and SO many are
the vacant churches, that sermons in
every church on the call to the minis
try are surely needed at the present
time in order to awaken the young
men of the church to their privileges
and opportunities to serve God in holy
offices for the benefit of the people,
