MR. HUGH THOMPSON PAYS UP. He Prefers Less Cash to More Liberty ~Two Lads Who Now Know It Was Loaded-Personal Paragraphs. Necessity for Christian Testimony. This was the subject treated yesterday morning by Father Adolph Wesselling, at St. Peter's church. The text was “You shall give testimony because you have been ith me from the beginning.” St. John, 15:27. Said the speaker: “Christ is before us this morning as he was before the apos- tles. The injunction recorded here is the wisdom and word of the blesscd Master. Jesus not only describes fully the christian life, its dutics and responsibilitics, but He tells them of the future, that persecutions will always be theira, A glance at history will confirm these prophesies. The history of the world is divided according to the persecutions the church has had to undergo. These persecutions continue until now und will 80 long as the world stands and its people are unredeemed. To be sure our struggles are different from those which were had by the apostles. The majority of the people in those days believed in the exist- cnce of God, the immortality of the soul, and other principles which were taught and believed by the early church. There were & few dissenters, but dissension was the excep- tion, not the rule. Now dissension is the rule. The infidel world does not believe these principles, It espouses the ideas con- tained in the novels of the tim it calls these “its creed” and thinks itself wonder- fully smart _in so doing. These people dis- believe the dootrine of the di ¢ of Christ, which is the foundation of chri faith. * % % Christ told his disciples what would happen to them in the future, hence they were not surprised when these’ prophecies were fulfilled. The purpose of Christ in thus foretelling was twofold. First, that we might be pre- pared for these_things, that we might antici- pate them, and that in their coming the church should not be scandalized; second, that the apostles might give testimony con- cerning these things. This obligation to speak rests alike upon all who have received the mark of the cross, upon whose souls has been indellibly fixed ' the figure of His martyrdom? Christ infusgd (s obliga- tion into His apostles durlng the three years of His sacred ministry. The same spirit that was in them is in us. The battle is now different from what it was then. The apostles confronted the Jews and pagans. The reigning power was against them. ‘Their work was to correct wrong impres- sions concerning Christ. In this labor of opposition thousands of heads rolled in the dust. The cruelty of this warfare was well nigh a death blow to the church. From these times have arisen monuments of truth and the grandest teachings which are ours to believe &nd ours to transmit. The world is now opposed to the truths of christianity no matter from what source they come. The world knows if it can break the suc- cession of St. Peter the church is de The truth is the same as it was in thos but the weapons of our warfare are different. S came to Rome. He saw the mag- reared to every name and o which have bécome cele- brated in history; the soldier smiling in the consciousstrength which won him and his armies innumerable conquests: senators whose wisdom had made Rome the savant of the nations. St. Peter d_Rome, the capitol of the civilized world alone. So went the other anostles, dispersad to the diffe arters of the known world, to give testimony to the spirit that was in them. Alone they contended for the truth. The world listen pted, was converted, ame p ition, and the aposties followers suffered death alone. amerous examples show- he fearlessness and vigor which charac- ized the preaching of the carly fathers, 1 contrasted this with the lethargy and k of carnestness which to-iay dominates i cortain portions of christian labor. He made & strong plea for a ‘‘cousistent chr:stian life and a coustant and unwavering adhesion to the church and a profession of the faith which is inus.” Said he: “It is not enough that we possess the spirit of Christ, but when men would scoff and sneor at the relizion we hold most dear it is our duty to defend it. Tt is our duty to obey the practices the church i Abstinence, progress, confession e religious duties, and no amount o r disparagement should deter us faithful discharge.” He referred ity which exists for this testi- k of saving men. He .spoke pread atheism of the day, of the disrespect shown the church by t he arguments advanced by the and eloquent plea for a cater intelligence and knowledge in the church, that these would-be opposers of the christi nay be met at ev od and ove - Preferred Liberty to Cash.
