TODAY’S “And the word was made flesh” (John, i. BY HUBERT C. HERRING. Noted liberal writer, lecturer, preacher, ‘Boston. Truth is never interesting in the abstract. That is the reason for the waning popularity of the multiplica- tion table. Truth must find garments of flesh and blood before it can thrill the souls of men. The writer of the Gospel of John had a great many theories about Jesus Christ. They were very elabo- rate. He sought to fit the garments of Greek philoso- phy upon the sim- ple figure of the carpenter of Naza- reth. They did not fit. Neverthe- less his main ar- gument {s sound. Truth was clothed with flesh in this person Christ. The newspaper headlines this morning specialize in personalities. They always do. You and 1 are (interested in people. Through people we learn about our- selves and our world. That is the reason we are interested in reading the lives of people. Biogra- phies make interesting reading whether it be the life of Napoleon or Theodore Roosevelt or Woodrow Wil- son. We like to get on the inside of doors and see how people act there. I have just been reading Beatrice Webb's blography, “My Apprentice- ship.” It is fascinating to see how this woman, born to wealth and social position, came to be one of the intel- lectual and political leaders of Eng- land. It was part of the genlus of Jesus that He knew how to clothe every- thing He said in personal terms. He rarely used abstractions. He had the story telling habit and used it to ad- vantage. When He wished to talk about the value of childhood he did not write an essay. He took ome average child who was playing in the street and used hat one child to {llustrate His words. “It is better that a milistone * * " and His audience understood. When He wished to talk about hypo- crites, He took the case of one harlot surrounded with a group of self right- eous young and old men and shot at the mark, “Let him that is without sin amongst you cast the first stone.’ If you would discover the power of Jesus here is the place to begin. When He talked about the lpve of God, He illustrated it by lving it. The word was made flesh. People saw love per- sonifled in this carpenter and they be. lieved in the power of love. He did not talk much about forgiveness, but he lived it and people understood. He taught the Fatherhood of God by act ing as if it were true. He taught the value of human life by treating sick people, lepers, the blind, the crippled, as though they were worth a great deal. He preached his sermons in his actions. People listened to these sermons. People always ‘listen to sermons which are ll\'e(l. ThHat is the reason Jesus can never be for- gotten no matter how mysteriously the religionists wrap him up in pale formulae and pious abstractions. DR. HERRING. Plans Patriotic Sermon. Rev. D.

New P et iamtentalit Loague, The truth of the incarnation is the crowning glory of Christianity. The proof of the love of God iles in the fact that heaven bent low to earth, and God became man! Here, also, is the real proof of the trinity. Because God is three per- sons in one divine nature, the second person’in the God- could - man and serve as the Sav- for of the race. Merely because we cannot under- stand the trinity is no proof that it is not true. Man himselt is a_trin- ity. We havebody, mind and spirit, and yet the three make one person- alit DR. STRATON. The God-head 1s a tri-personal un- ity, and the light is a trinity. Being fmmaterfal and homogeneous, and thus essentially one in its nature, the light includes a plurality of constit- uents, or in other words is essentlally three in its constitution, its constitu- ent principles being the actinic, the luminiferous and the calorific, vet in glorious manifestation the light is one, and is the created constituted and ordained emblem of the tri-personal God—of whom it is said t! light, and in Him is no darkness 1" (John, i.5). The actinic rays a in themselves invisible s the luminiferous manifest them are th seen; only as the caloric accompany them. are they felt. So when the word was made flesh it became possible for men to see and to feel God. Notice, too, that the word was “made flesh.” Jesus Christ came by the divine miracle of the in- carnation through the Virgin birth The promise to Mary was: “The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore, also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."—(Luke, 1.35.) What dignity and splendor the truth of the Incarnation gives to our hu manity! This is infinitely greater than pantheidm with fts idea that God comes to self-consciousness only in man, If it is true, then we have nothing to worship except ourselves! The truth of the incarnation give dignity to man by teaching that God made Himself one with . and that we may all become partakers of the divine nature by repentance, faith and regeneration! This truth humbles us and keeps us modest and sweet, even while we glory in our inheri- tance through Jesus Christ!
