Mount ..f OUvm. about too nul.a t Comment end Suggestive Thought. At the !ra*t of the dedication. ‘ crtnber. t'brtat had ao plainly assert rd his dHty that the Jeers had sought to stone him for blasphemy: but be had escaped to Rethahara (Bethany: In Perea, the country east of the Jordan—s town In the north over a, Galilee Christ's promise of a resurrection did not satisfy Martha. It wa general, too vague, too tar ahead. She wanted her brother back—that minute Christ met that longing by of the most magnificent of his utterances — "that wondrous sentence which has carried hope and triumph to millions of the dying and bereaved, and will do so’while time and tallty endure."—Oelkle. I—the llrlng. breathing friend, whom you love. AM—Am now; no vague sometime; no postponement. THE RESURRECTION—The power of the resurrection, the resurrection

AND THE LIFE—to conquer that grim DEATH which has come so terribly to your home. HE THAT BEUEVETH IN ME— believing what Martha hastened confess, that Christ was God's Son. his messenger of love to the world. THOUGH HE WERE DEAD—as 1 bis mere body. YET SHALL HE LIVE—in every point that constitutes life, having even a body, and a far better one. AND WHOSOEVER—yes. though he were the chief of sinners. LIVETH—with this higher life In

him.

AND BEUEVETH IN ME me." says the Revised Version. SHALL NEVER DIE—No. NEVER; for. though his body may perish, that will be but an Incident his continuing and triumphant UFE. Jesus, Our Resurrection and Oar Ufa—X. By preserving oar lives dally, through countless unseen perils that surround ns—perils of the disease germs floating everywhere; perils of earthquake on thi garth-crust over hidden perils of accident In our complicated Ufa “A thousand times, yea. every perilous moment. God saves us from dying.”—Phillips Brooks. !. By turning our minds away from the physical death we must all die length, to him and his life. “We a all passing into the likeness of that In which we believe. A man who ships money comes to wear the likeness of a money-worshiper down to the Upa of his Angers. The Hindu who worships Brahma sleeping on the stars In Immovable calm, gets to wear a fixed expression."—Theodore T. Monger, D. D. So the continual thought of Christ, who overflowed — with Invincible life. Implants that Ufa within us. 5. By upholding us In the very boor of physical death. “When a community of religious women In Paris, daring the fury of the French Revolution. were condemned to the guillotine. the youngest victims passed to their execution raising In serene voices the sublime hymn. “Venl Creator." The celestial song did not cease when they ascended the stairs of the scaffold, and the work of butchery went on. Volos after voice had to drop from the chorus, aa face after face bent under the ax; and at length one voice was heard alone sustaining the holy strain, even while the bloody blade fell and sealed the last martyr's testimony."—Bishop Huntington. 4. By awaking us. when we die. Into endless life. “The time will seem no longer than the four days which passed before he awakened Laxarua. We shall have no consciousness of his tarrying. He comes as In a moment, to awake us out of sleep."—Thomas Arnold, the head of Rugby school. 6. By freeing us from the spiritual death, from sin. Massillon, the great French preacher. Justly sees In the dead Laxarua an Image of the sinner: "Become a mass of worms and and corruption, he spreads Infection and stench; and behold the profound •corruption of a soul In habitual sin. jK gloomy napkin covers his eyes and Ills face: and behold the fatal bUndness of a soul in habitual aln. He appears in the tomb bound hand and Tool: and behold the melancholy subJecilon of a soul In habitual sin.” Freedom from this "dead body* of sin. as Paul called It. Is the most dlfflcult resurrection; but Christ accomplishes even this. He comes Into our soul, and sin most flee. "'Christ in you is the hope of glory.' "Isidore of Peluslnm thinks that Saviour did not mourn for his friend Laxarus because be was dead (fox he knew that be waa^olng to raise him from the dead), bur because h

into the wavse and storms; from a crown which be had enjoyed, to a encounter with his enemies. If dost not believe his interpretation, yet dost thou believe the thing? Dost thou consider this world's misery so great we should rather weep that we are In It than that others are gone out of it?"—Bishop Patrick. We rarely find that the —mg non

By far the moot valuable i of all to all men for Ufa Is akULHlpparcbus.
