SEVERAL HUNDRED AT
REVIVAL DESPITE RAIN

MY friend your boast is poor,
He who has mingled in the fray
"Of duty that the brave endure,
Must have made foes. If he has
none,
Small is the work that he has done;
Hes hit no traitor on the hip,
"Hescast no cup from periured lip;
HAS never turned the wrong to right
Has been a coward in the fight.
Referring then to the text DR.
Bulgin said: Love is a compound
term, and no language expresses in
one word its full equivalent and
some nations have no words to ex-
press this meaning.
Love represents compound emo
ton, expressed by four words in our
language first, esteem, and to es-
TEEN a person he must be estimable,
and can you call murderer, des-
poiler Of your home defamer of
your character a blesphemer of your
Lord an estimable person? Could
you esteem such being? No; it
would be an impossibility SO when
the Lord said love He did not mean
it in this sense.
"The second sense is complacency;
a pleasing object pleasant to look at,
peaceful and beautiful, imposing CON
fidence and bringing satisfaction. Is
it possible for us to experience com
placency and look with pleasure and
peace upon our enemy? he beauti-
full and satisfying and does he bring
us peace? No! SO the Lord did not
mean, look with complacency on your
enemy.
"The third meaning is gratitude.
Can one be grateful to an enemy ?
Gratitude is called forth by the fact
of a great favor bestowed on u.s."
Dr.. Bulgin told here of a little
Italian hero, a newsboy who rescued
a baby from burning building and
gave it uninjured to the mother, and
the gratitude in that mother toward
the rescuer of her child. Then he
asked: HAS our enemy done favor
to awaken gratitude? No! So our
Lord did not mean gratitude when
He said, Love your enemies God
does <set demand that We love our
enemies with esteem with compla-
cency with gratitude, but He does
desire and teach us to love them with
benevolence, and this is the fourth
compound. Benevolence toward our
enemies. This is possible for the
Christian, for the word is taken from
two words Bonus meaning good
and 'volens,' to wish-meaning to
wish them good, and this is what Je.
sus said, Love your enemies'-'Wisn
them good, and this is possible for
the Christian. This is the love that
Jesus expressed when He prayed on
the cross, Father forgive them for
sey know not what they do SO Je-
sus does not -Saele- the impossible,
or that which He himself did not do.
He did not say esteem your enc.
mics, look with pleasure on them or
be grateful to them but he did say
be benevolent toward them or in
stead Of wishing them eveil. wish
them good"
AT the conclusion of the sermon
