How Jesus Christ Gives.


Here we dare run the deadly par
| allel, and say that Jesus Christ gives
! to the highest part of man, the spirit.
While all know that well-being is the
reward of virtue, yet Jesus Christ
does not come to man with a promise
of blessing to the body that perishes.
He recognizes that man is in the i'm
age and likeness of God, and offers him
what meets the demands of such a
being. The offer may mean that
trial and even death shall follow al
legiance to Jesus Christ. The fare
of the birds of the air and the foxes
that have holes may not be his, but
Jesus Christ offers to the spirit of
man that which will meet every prop
er demand. ~As our text brings to our
attention the subject of peace, it is
sufficient to know that Jesus Christ
offers this peace to those that re-
ceive him.
Jesus Christ really gives. Eternal
life is a gift. Wine and milk are with
out money and without price; the wa
ter Of life is free. There is nothing
that the man of the world is slower
to believe than that the salvation of
Jesus Christ is a pure gift.
The last part of the parallel is,
that what Jesus gives is satisfying.
Safety gives way to real satisfac-
ton. There may be or may not be
thrill connected with the experience,
but in any case it is permanent. There
are no dregs at the bottom of this
cup of pleasure. There are no sub
marines that may send the fatal tor
pedo into the hull of the vessel of
salvation. A beautiful thing about
the religion of Jesus Christ is that
the satisfaction is not delayed. What
the Christian receives here and now,
satisfies. AS William Mckinley lay
dying and said: THY will be DONE"
there was evidence of satisfaction, al |
though the highest position in the |
gift of man was sinking out of sight. |
Is the early martyrs faced the lions
in the arena and lifted up their faces
and smiled, there was something
more than satisfaction. AS the Chris
tan looks forward to the day when he |
shall rise in Christ's likeness he is
now satisfied with the prospect as
was David of old when he said: 81
shall be satisfied when | awake with
thv likeness

bless. So men and women find that
the two contestants for their affection
and service are the world on the one
hand, and Jesus Christ on the other.
How the World Gives.
The world gives to the lowest part
of man, that which relates him to the
animal creation below the human.
To the flesh a thrill of pleasure is
given, a passing exhilaration, and this
may even extend to the esthetic
taste or the intellect. But this con-
tribution rarely lasts until tomorrow,
the equation Of tomorrow usually TAX
ing away the benefit of today.
The world really never gives, every
contribution being made with the
clear understanding that settlement
day is expected. Every indulgence in
the worlds sinful pleasure is a mort
gage that must be lifted some day;
Shylock must ever have his pound of
flesh
The world gives, but never satisfies.
The momentary thrill of pleasure is
not satisfaction. Satisfaction does
not belong to the flesh, and the world
has little or nothing for the spirit.
The world gives safety, but safety
is unworthy of anyone created in the
image and likeness of God. Ruskin
says that the bitterest pangs of con-
science are the satellites of the flesh.
The most miserable man on earth is
the man who has run the round of
fleshly pleasures and who realizes still
that he has something about him that
is living on, and it is starving. The
words Of George Arnold at this point
are in place:
I have had my will,
Tasted every pleasure;
l have drunk my fill
OF the purple measure.
Life has lost its zest,
Sorrow is my guest,
o t.e lees are bitter bitter,
Give me rest.
Love once filled the bowl,
Running DER with blisses,
Made my very soul
Drunk with crimson kisses.
But L drank it dry,
Love has passed me by,
o the lees are bitter, bitter,
Let me die.
