Tho crucifixion is the contral point of tho most re- markablo combination of facts in the whole rango of thought. Lel the sun riso in tho midst of the ntreots, and it wonld bo the central thonght, Lot an angel come down on fothe earth with the glory of the world surrounding it, and it would be tho contral fact. 8o Jesus, presonted to our thoughts, becomes central, and all men nre sttracted to it ; some to doubt, some to erucify. and many to believe, but all to won- dor. While it is merely a cold fruth, this siate- mont that the lifo has been mynifested in the flewh, yeb it i8 too deep for us to uader- gtand. © Lot it Do known that Ilo cumo into our flesh and it becomes personal. From that moment forward every man becomes wreppod up in the contemplation of thab fresh {act.

A glanco ot the wnrlclnF of theso two lincs of olicy in this life will show thut this practical aw of tho Gospel s indorsed by tho common goneo of mankind, Given tho fact thub thero are dilleultios in the way to o cortain end, ho would ba pronounced either & visionary ar s cowardly mau who would attempt to slut lig eyes to them, or would nndertuke to oxplnin or rousion them away, 'Theroaro two eloments in the truo way of grappling with things: ane Is, to got rid of obstnoles and dangers whon prace ticablo; tho _other, to submit to unavoldablo difticultios, Whionever mountuin, river, or sow thrasts itsel? in man’s \m{, his fleat sludy s wheothor thero is a roasonable prospect of geiting around tho trouble, eithor by bridging or travel- ing, or by outwitting time nnd discanco, by tol- ograph, Tho hindrunce to swift commorce of thiought by broud ccenus is romoved by opontng a lightning pathway through theirdepths, Tho trankit of the Alps, offected by slow und tedions climblng, Is suporsedod when the Mount Cenis Punnal orian Lo the world, *‘Dy gates ara opon, pats through " Eugopo, for sges, tolled nround thio Cnpo of Good Tlope to vench Asis, thon tried tho camel and dromedary, and aftorward the rail, ovorland from Meditorranoan to Red Bow, bt 'gave all thoso up for tho botter way of the Sucz Canal, Whon Californin bogan to throw ~ut its golden hints to the world, tho obstaclos _1tho way of gottlug thore utiered also their atern conditlons, ' Round me," sald Capo Ilorn; * or neross me,” sald Pauatan , ! grovar aud norors us,” snid {ho torrlblo Alkoll dosort and the Nooky Mountaing, This was submliited to untl the problem was solved, and fron bands wero run neroas tho ugly dosert avor the monn- taing’ prond boeke, to “whirl the world over.n now highwny, Thus man, In his best policy, nlwnys obviales dangor and troublo whonovor it booomes possiblo. ~ And thia 48 in larmony with tho spirit of Christianity, which nevor makes a virtua of courting lruu\ylm amnl nevor indorsos the aecotism which slops naide to seck difficuition, and goos throagh thow for the sake of doing it. But whon wo aro confronted by the fnovitablo, whint thon {s tho truo courso?” Lo submit in a manly spirit, and endenvor to mako tho most of cireumstances, If cuituro and education cotsti- titto the gonl, tho studont submits voluntarily to tho tyranny of tho maxim, **No royal rond to lonrning.”" If tho farmor ling his heatt on o rich haryost, e knowa it 1s polioy to hoed the words of tho wise, “Ifc that obsorveth the twind hall 10t 80w, and ho that regardetl tho clouds shall not reap.” Ilore {8 ona man sot on making monoy, another on bocoming famous In his pro- fosston, and anotbier on carrylng through a pat project which ling been tho atudy of years, Each of theso knows that, in making his cholco, Lo nlo chooses with it all tho trlals and privations incidont to such n courso, It discreet mon, thoy know bettor than to go to work to Lty to chango Lhe necessary laws of condition which govern snccoss, but will devoto thomselvos wilh earnest- ness and porsovernnca to surmount tho obstacles and diflicultios in their way.

On the other hand, tho falae wny is to reach avory goal and got ovory roward without com- plying with tho rules nor submitting to any of tho {uconvonioncos, restraints, and trinls of tho courae londing to tho sume, Such in tho mothod adopted by tl u]mmsucu which infest socioty. Thoy ara men living a nort of vegotablo lifos “ihoy tofl not, noithor do nmr spin, and yob would willingly bo arrayed in glory grontor than Solomon's. Fhey would pluck all the fruit, reap all tho hinrvosts, and pookob all the prizes of lifo, without_doing & thing to entitle thom to tho samo, But thoro is always connected with this tho redooming consideration, thet much charac- {ors ara looked upon aud treated as dishonorable shirkera of responeibility, Lot us sco how oll this applics to religious mattors, 1t is o matter of astonishment how go many allow thomselves to ignora tho plain fact, that n m‘lucl\"lo whicl is true in temporal afluirs must be 8o also in spiritual; that the rales which govorn all legitimato wuccoss in life ust also abply to the saue in the highor ronhm. If the oy of living wo liave poiutod out is falso aud unlawful, pronounced so0 by tho universal con- seat of the common jndfimnut of mankind, and Dy the higher vordiet of Divineequity, what sor. cory can make it right whon ecarriod into the provineo of thosoul? And yot this false prin- ciplo i3 tho provailing ono in oll the systems and theories which have diverged from the commonly- accopted Biblo way of suivation. Liko the text- Dbooks gotton up sometimes to study langungos on n new plan, such as Fronch or German * mude onoy,” which so_disappoint.tho ambitious stu- dent 3 80 the world is cursed with these teachers who dupo tho thousands with their “Roligion medo c“f"" +¢!'he Taithinl and Truo Witneas" says hero, Powsre of fulso Prophets.” And why?

At tho vory euntranco to s roligious lifo Christ domands repentance for all pust Bins. “Repent yo, for the Kingdom of Ilcaven is ab hand.” The sinful heart rebols agninst this. 1t goes ngainat tho grain to acknow! edgo sin, and Tore g0 to répent of tho same. ** Listen tome,” suys tho now Prophat, *jnmy creed repentauco is not found, for I manage to make out that it s not noeded.

Tho human heart, to its very dopths, feels that to bo true, but yob recoils from it. Toking the ndvantage of this recoiling, our reconstructor of tha Gospel says: “ 1e only meant, you must cbango your ideas, oud como out into a now intelloctual realm, develop whatisin you, ¢ enltivate your soul's forces,” * work out tho sdmirablo forees of your natwte.) * How casy for the hicart, alrendy in robollion against Diviue truth, to yleld to the seductions of utterances thus framed on purposo 1o harmonize witht its likings} The gate is widoned aud tho way rondored easior by romoving rostraints, Pure and unde- filad roligion impokes somo wlolesomo dutios and restraints upon thoso who profess it. Thoy are rominded ne they pass along thnt the way is narrow, that thoir path is ono of self denial,—n cross-boaring path. ‘Fhese dutios and restraiuts aro essentinl to our well-being.
