r .Iffy J v. TALUACE'S SERMON. Samuel jji-iii, 10: "And his hand clave unto the sword." A great general of Kin? David was i-ieazar, tue hero of tin- text. The Philistines opened baitle :t;iiist liini. ana ins troops retreated The cowards lied. Eleazar and three of his coinrad went jiho me battle and swept the held, for four men with God on their side are stronger than a whole battalion with God against them. Full back!" shouted the commander of the Philis tine army. The cry raug along the host: "Kail back!" Kleazar Having swept the lields throws himself on the ground to rest, but the muscles and sinews of his hand had been so Ions bent around the hilt of the sword that the hilt was inbedded in the ilesh, and the gold wire of the hilt had broken through the skin of the palm of his hand, and he could not drop this sword which he had so gallantly wielded. 'His hand clave unto the sword." .This is what I cillnuguiiicent lighting for the Lord God of Israel. And we want more of it. 1 propose to show you this morning how Kleazar took hold of the sword and how the sword took .,--'" hold of Kleaz:ir. I look at Eleazar's nana, and I come to the conclusion that lie took the sword with a very ngnt grip. J he cowards who tied had no trouble in dropping their swords. as uiey ny over the rocks 1 hear their swords clanging in every direction. Jt is easy enough for them to drop their swords. J 5nt IKeazars hand clave unto the sword. J see hundreds, herhaps thousands of young men in this audience. J)o not be ashamed, young man, to have tha world know that you are a friend of the bible. This book is the friend of all that is good, and it is the sworn enemy of all that is bad An eloipient writer recently gave an incident of very bad man who stood in the cell of western prison. This criminal had gone through all styles of crime, and he was there waiting for the gallows. The convict standing there at the window of the cell this writer says, looked out and declared, 'I am an in fide!.' He said that to all the insn and women aud children who happened to be gathered there, 'I am an infidel and the eloqent writer says, "every man and woman there believed him." And the writer goes ou to say, "If he had stood there saying 'I am the Christain every man and woman would have said, 'He is a liar." This bible is the sworn enemy of all this wrong and it is the friend of all that is good. Oh, hold on it. Do not take part of it and throw the rest away. Hold on to all of it. There are so many people uow who do not know. You ask them if the soul is immortal, and Jhev miv "1 rUU. is i uou i kuow ; pemapsit is. perhaps itisut. is the bible true? 'Wellrer- naps it is ana perhaps it isn't; perhaps it may be Mguiatively, and erhaps it may be partly, and perhaps it may not be at all." They despise what they call the Apostolic creed; but it' their o i n creed were written out it wo;tld read like this: "I believe in nothing the maker of heaven and earth, and in nothing which it hath sent, which nothing was born of nothing, ani which nothing was dead aud buried and de scended into nothing and arose from nothing and ascended into nothing and now sitteth at the right hand of noth ing. 1 believe in the holy agnostic church and in the communion of nothingarians, and in the resurrection of nothing and in the life that never shall be. Amen!-' That is the creed of tens of thousands of people in this day. Jf you have a mind to adopt such a theory 1 will not "I believe in God the father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ and in the holy catholic church and in the communion of saints, and in the life everlasting. Amen." Oh, wheu I see Eleazer. taking such a stout grip of God's eternal truth the sword of righteousness. As J look at Eleazer's hand I also notice his spirit of self forgetfulnei He did not notice that the hilt of the sword was eating through the palm of his hand. He did not know it hurt him." As he went out into the conflict he was so anxious for the victory he forgot himself, and that hilt might go never so deeply into the palm cf his hand, it could not disturb him. "His hand clr-ve nnto the sword." O my brothers m sisters, let us go into Chri s tain co-SvA with the spirit of self ab negation. Who cares whether the world araites us or denounces us? What do we care for misrepresentation, or abuse, or persecution in a conflict like this ? Let us forget ourselves. That man who is afraid of getting his hand hurt will never kill a Philistine Who cares whether you get hurt or not if yon get the victory? Oh, how many Christians there are who are all the time worrying about the way the worn treats them. They are so tired they on to abused and they are so tanpted, when Eleazer did not think whether be had a hand or an arm, or a feat An he wanted was victory. , we know what men accomplish un Car worldly opposition, lien do not CztJi baek for antagonism, or for C ZZJ..

While Kleazer, with the hilc imbedded in the llesh of his risht nana, Uoes not know it. As 1 look at Eleazer" hand. I come to the conclusion that he has done a great deal of hard hitting. J am not surprised when 1 see that these four men EJeazer and his thiee compan ionsdrove back (he army of Phili stines, that Eleazer's swor.l clave to his hand, for every lime he struck an enemy with one end of the sword, the other end of the sword wounded him. When he took hold of one end of t.ie sworu, me sworu took hold of him. Oh we have found an enemy who cannot oecouuered by rose water and soft speeehei. it must be sharp stroke and straight thrust. There is intemperance and there is fraud, and there arc 10 00J other battalions of iniquity, armed Philistine iniquity. How are they to te capturea and overthrown?

Hut we are so afraid somebody will criticise our sermons, or criticise our prayers or criticise our religious work that our anxiety for the world s redemption is lost in the fear we will get our hand iinrt, while Eleazer went into the con flict, "and lijs hand clave unto the sword." Hull see in 1 he next place what a hard thing it was for Eleazer to get his hand and his sword parteJ.

"Hi3 hand clave unto the sword." There is the headless body of Paul on the road to Ostea. His great braiii and his great heart have been severed. The elm wood rods had stung hire fear fully. When the corn ship broke un he swam ashore, coming up drenched with the brine. Everyday since that day wheu the horse reared under him in the suburbs of Damascus, as the supernatural light fell, down to this day whtn be is m years of age and old and decrepit from the prison cell of tlie Mamertine, he has been outrageously treated, and he is waiting to die. How uoes tie spend his last hours ? Telling me wona now uaaiy he feels, and de scribing the rheumatism that he got in prison, the rheumatism afflicting his limbs, or the neuralgia piercing his temples, or the thirst that fevers his tongue? Ch, no. His last words are the battle shout of Christendom: "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of mv departure is at hand; 1 have fought the gooa light. And so his dying hand clave unto the sword. You noticed that the officers of the northern, army a few years ago as sembled at Denver, and you noticed that the officers of the southern army assemniea at Islington. Soldiers com. ing together are very apt to recount their ezpe-iences and to show their scars. Here is a soldier who pulls up ..a Dieric, aim saya.- --mere, i was wounded in that arm," and shows the scar. Aud another soldier pulls down ins collar, and says, "There, 1 was wounded in the neck." And another soldier says, "I have had no use of that limb since the gunshot fracture." Omv Mends, wheu the battle of life is over. and the resurrection has come, and our bodies rise from the dead, will we have on us any sear of bravery for God? Christ will be there all covered with cars. Bears on tue orow, scars on the hand, scars on the feet, scars all over the heart, won in the battle of redemp tion.
