Eloquent Sermon Delivered
By Rev. D. c. Coburn
OF M. P. Church
MINISTER'S OF CITY
JOIN In THE SERVICE
Large Congregation In At
tendance; A Synopsis Of
DR.. Coburn's Sermon

Union Thanksgiving services were
held Thursday evening in the First
Congregational church. There was n
large congregation present.
An interesting program was given
in which the minister's from the var
ious churches took part.
A very interesting sermon was de
ilvered by the Rev. ID. c. Coburn, pas
tor of the Mulberry street Methodist
Protestant church.
A synopsis OF the sermon follows:
Text, Deut. 30:19, 20, Neh. $40,
! Thess. 5:1S, and Math. 1913.
Lesson. Psa. 105:1-15, 42'45,
psa. 124, or Psa. 33 and 60.
/. Moses, Nehemiah, Paul and Jes.
MS, these ionr
(a) Moses, the great Jewish lawgiv-
cr, the noblcst, most illustrions and
most instructive character of all
those early centuries. He had shaped
the lsraclites into a nation, filed out
for them their civil and religious pol
ity or form of government tone or
the best of the ages), administered
their laws, guided their Wavering
steps, borne the great burdens OF
state for 40 years, lived with them
and taught them in the wilderness.
heard their murmurings, monrned ov-
er their mbelief and their punish
mcnts. And now lie rears the end OF
that illustrions career. What event
in all history Is more touching than
the death of Moses? Think of 1t.
With all that wondrous past, there
lay the Jordan between them and the
promised land. ~ The promised land.
How he must have looked forward to
Il? Hut the Lord said 10 him, Thou
must not 20 over" Doubtless he re-
allied that his work was almost done.
But with loyal SOUL with sad resigna-
tion, and with prophetic vision he
saw what that promised land, but to
him that forbidden land, meant to his
people and humanity And so he
turns again to them and with his last
words he repeats the great and vital
truth for all the ages and nations
Therefore choose life, etc"
One great truth we are to get from
that is that God Is the author of tho
life of the nation as truly rs He is OF
the life of the individual, And that
the love and fear Of God which in
chdc obedience to Him and HIS
laws Is the great condition or founda
tion on which the life and peace ant
progress and prosperity and perpetui
ty of the nation Is based. And God

istence Of practical atheism among
us. political atheism and otherwise

er that. This is Thanksgiving Day,
such as we never had before in the
history of our great nation, etc.
(c) And so today we find reason for
thanksgiving in the fact that 50 many
people recognize the fundamental
truth that God Is the author of the
life of our nation, etc. From the Pill.

the divine right of kings. And our
wonderful progress, and unparalleled
development. and our influence
among the nations of the globe have
been under the Influence of those
righteous principles. Most of our in

and are based upon them. With all
the imperfections and violations and
departure from this great central
truth, it has been supreme and large
