Divine Easter Message.

The message that Easter brings tc
the individual has a very direct bear
ing upon his life, for what one be.
largely determine his character, an6
even his eternal destiny. One may
ven go further and say what a ma
ton believes about the hereafter de-
termines the character of it's govern
ment in its practical dealing at home
and abroad, and the character of the
national life. The man or nation that
is not restrained by the feeling tha'
there is another world in which there
will be a higher justice and a o
tinued life of some sort, is dangerous.
Passing over the strictly religious
element in the resurrection of Christ,
~!momentarily, let us remember that
history was made on that first Easter
morning. When the devoted women
went down to the tomb of the Lord
upon their mission of love, it was given
to them to hear the announcement
from an angel that was to turn the
tide of history and to give impetus to
the movement of uplifting men that
is still gathering force today. Jesus
was a great teacher and He gave to
the world its best principles and pre-
cepts. But there have been other good
teachers of morals and religion, and
who knows but that His teachings
would not have persisted with Him if
He had not risen from the dead and
become the living inspiration for the
millions who were to come after him.
Herein lies the distinctive difference
between Christ and other teachers
and between Christianity and other
codes of morals and religion. Chris
tan worship is directed toward a per-
son and does not consist in ~veneration
of a dead leader and slavish adher-
ence TO a rule of life or set of regu-
%Iations. Above all Christianity is not
a philosophy, but a life, drawing its
inspiration from a living Christ, and
having a universal appeal because it
speaks the language of love.
Religion ImperishabIe.
Such a religion can not be beaten"
1t has all the qualities of the imper-
ishable, and so long as the church
maintains steadfast its belief in the
resurrection 1t can not be conquered
by all the hosts of evil.
The resurrection of Christ was the
supreme victory of the G and not
even was the overwhelming defeat
of the Hun hosts battling on the
western front a greater one. For
we may say that If Jesus Christ had
not lived and died as He did and had
not risen from the dead and had not
inspired the men of the great free
nations of the world with the love of
humanity, of human brotherhood and
