In the- First Presbyterian Church on |„ Sunday, the pastor, the R<-v. Charles H. lJohner, delivered the Easter sermon at the morning service, taking as "l( his theme, "The Empty Tomb," and as his text Mark lti; 0: "He is risen; He be is not here; behold the place where p, they laid Him." Re said in part: , "Several years ago I visited the cathedral of Seville, in Spain, in which •"** the bones of Christopher Columbus lai are interred. In a magnificent sar- . rophagus, containing a smaller cas- . ket. resting on the shoulders of four huge female figures, representing p l*eon. Castillc, Navarre and Arragon. "I repose the "mortal remains of the great or Admiral. With uncovered head I gaz- fa ed long and reverently upon the famous bier. As I lingered at the spot; and recalled "his great deeds, 1 could hardly rcaligp that I stood "within a few feet of the earthly remains of the tl hero of American discovery. Yet just before me was the coffined dust of the t world's greatest discoverer, "This morning 1 invite you to visit ■" with me a grave very unlike the one I pa have just described and unlike any (n other the earth holds. It is'an empty sepurchre. The lifeless body that re- , posed there has burst the hands of * death, and white-robed messengers, '' sitting on the stone rolled from before the door, proclaim the glad tidings: ro 'He is risen; He if not here; behold the er place where they laid Him." 1 invite . you to visit this empty tomb, this Easter moiming, because it is a deter- re mining factor in the problems of life and death which so sorely perplex us. dn "1st. The empty tomb* establishes a0 the divine Lordship of Jesus. He rested His title to divinity upon the ' truth of His .resurrection, and proved lo it- His enemies qjemofed for a sign. *" and He answered. 'I will give you no sign but that of the prophet Jonah; ro. three days in darkness, and life and ml| then immortality brought to light.' The resume tionjs God's sign-manual on the divine Lordship of Jesus, cb Without it His gospel is like Charles a Dickens' storv of Edwin Drood; it ati larks denouement. "2d. It proves the effectiveness of His work. In that empty grave are the hidings of His power. -Tfie world l,v has enough of dead gods. Mercury" be and Jupiter, Thor and Odin — all are ev dead. Eyes have they, but they see Bl not. Ears have they, but they hear not. But blessed is the man who has found Jesus. He lives. A member of the French Directory, a-ho had invented a new religion, complained to Tal- 0 icynuid that he was disappointed that it made no headway, to which the celebrated wit replied, 'Go and be crucified. and then be buried, and then rise ti again in the third day. and your ven- a( ture will succeed.' Herein is the sc- . cret of Christ's effectual work. "2d. That empty grave streams light upon destiny. In every grave on h earth's green sward is a tiny seed of , tl: the resurrection -life of Jesus Christ, 1 U and that seed cannot perish. It will I germinate when the soft south wind tt of Christ's return brings ' bock the h springtide to this sin-cursed earth of '* ours, and then they .that are in their ' graves, and we who shall lie down In r" <mrs, will feel in our mortal bodies the power of His resurrection and will." come forth to life immortal." j Ow cr..s J-r,. v Clayton Hainr.
