TIIE OMAHA DAILY'BSE : MONDAY JULY 17 1881. GROWIHJN GRACE. E * " .4 "V Subject of Dr. McCoph'a Dis course Yesterday. The Leariiod ' President oi Princeton College Speaks In the First Protlytorlnn Chtiroh- Notwithstanding the heat , the Firsl Presbyterian church of this city wai yoatcrdtxy filled to its utmost capacity by a select audience , assembled tc greet Dr. McCosh , the famous divine and president of Princeton college. Ills theme was "Growth in Grace , Il lustrated yi the Lifo of Nicodcinus. ' Ilia text waa from John XIX , 39 : "And there came also Nicodemus , ( which at the first came to Jesus bj night and brought a mixture ol myrrh and aloes , about a hundred pound weight. " Uosaid , "Among other nnd higher excellencies by which the four evan gelists were characterized , every hu man mind is much interested to notice the variety of human character , good and evil , brought bcforo us. In the center or foreground of the paint ing , ( if paintinR il can bo called ) , which is the simplest of all simple narratives ) otands Jesus , the brightesl of the Father's glory , and the express imago of his power only scon in the shadow ; working miracles , relieving distress and teaching his disciples , under the pressure all the while ol the mighty load of A woian'H HIN Around , wo BOO the apostles din- tinguishou by almost every possible diversity of character ; some timid , others confident , each with n heart ungodly by nature but all , with one ! sad exception , coming nndor divine power , which in struggling with re maining corruption within them. Farther oil"wo got a ghmpso of other disciples shrinking from the view ; for though convinced that Jesus lias come from God they have not the courage to arm themselves to bo his followers. Hero and there Among the groups that liovor around wo see enemies irritated by the faith * fulness of the holy ono in the midst of thorn and plotting how they may bo rid of him. At this place you notice a company of HCOl'KINO 8AIlUURis ) ) : ; at that place ft party of scowling Phar isees. . Scattered among these wo find persona who had been relieved by grace of Him who went about contin ually doing good , who had their burdens - dons of care removed or their diseases healed. This man fixing his eyes so eagerly on JOSUH was lately blind ; this other listening so intently was lately deaf ; this other walking and leaping with such al.icrity was , H short time ago , hopelessly lame ; and this other , so full of lifo and joy , was , but a few days ngo , prostr.xtod on a bed of aickncss , or shut up in TUB OLOOM OF THE 8KPULCJIUK. In the background of the scone wo have the mass of the people vacillat ing between two opinions ; now strew ing his path with branches of trees and shouting Hosannah , and again with loud voice demanding his cruci fixion.Vhoro else will you moot Buch a variety of character , reaching from spotless excellence on the ono Land and bloated lust nnd demoniacal malice and fury on the other. Heaven and earth and hell , God and man and devils , the flesh and the spirit , human nature and divine grace , mot and wrestle and struggle like wo see the several properties of each. Ily this mixture of light and shadow wo are interested nnd allowed to pursue the path before us ; and in doing so wo pick up most sulutary in struction. I bohovo it may bo said thai ho who Ims thoroughly studied TUB CIO.Hl'KI. H1H1OHY Icnows moro of human nature in ita deeper characters and moods , especial ly in its relation to God , the friend , and to God , the ( supposed ) fee , than ono who has road all the histories that were over written of all the people that have over lived. Wo moan at this time to single out for special contemplation , a single per- o/i from the multitudes that pass before fore us. That individual is Nicodo inus. Ho is presented to view ir throe different positions. In the pas aago immediately before us , as engaged gagod with Joseph of Aromathoa , ir committing the body of Jesus to the place of sopultuio. But the evangel ut in mentioning this circumstance , o much to his credit , refera to an other passage in the bible not so com- mondablo. "Then came Nicodomus , which at the first cauio to Jesus by night. " Oji turning back to chapter III , wo read of Nicodomus giving NOni.l ; TKHTIMONY iu different circumstances in behalf of justice and of Christ , but in that pas- ago the same humbling clause is added , "ho that came to Jesus by night. " Among other distinguish ing qualities , the scriptures are over faithlul in recording the infirmitica also of these \ < i hose excellencies are liold forth to pur admiration. Paul , in alluding to hie fluccoss adds that ho was once a per secutor , n blasphemer , and claims , "Not I but the grace of God in mo.1 In like manner when the faithfulnosi of Nicodomus is recorded it is addei that at first ho was so ashamed o Jesus that ho could not come to bin except ut dead of night Wo are thin taught in reading the lives of tin saints to distinguish the sinfulnos o the mon and TJK I'owiM WIOM AUOVK. "Not unto us , not nnto us. bu unto thy name bo praise. " Lot u consider Nicodomus under the thro Aspects in which ho is presontod. "Nicodomus who , at the first camp to Jusus by Night. " Tht carries us back tliroo years in the his tory. Jesus at that time wad jus commencing his public ministry. Hi had come to Jerusalem for the flra time shipo Jip began to teach nnd t < work miracles. His lifo had hitherti "boon obscure till lately in Galileo , am now in Jerusalem , ho wrought sign and wonders , which proved that h was a teacher como from God. Uu from his first appearance in Jorusa lorn the prejudices of the priests am rulers were armed against him. Kind in ? the temple , which was his Fatli ' house , profaned by unsocial fAorohnfidUo lib proceeded to clcfinsi it bycasting down the tabletAnd to moving the money changers ros n typ < of the Work ho cnmo to perform ii preparing the World , vhich oufjht t < bo Ids Uiinplo. From this time for ward TUB JKALOU8 EYK3 of the hierarchy wcro fixed on hin and narrowly watching his conduct A wound had boon inflicted , wind continued to rankle in their breasts Nor did this enmity ccaao till , throi years after , it succeeded in bring hin to the cross and to the grave. You can easily conceive how in thcst circumstances it must have rcquim much courage on the part of one possessed sossed of rank and authority to avov himself to bo n follower of Jesus "Not many mighty , not many noble are called. Yet Oed has had in overage ago witnesses for the truth fron among the higher as well as THE LOWEH OIIADEH OF fiOUIKTY , It was on this very turn that Nice domus first came to Jesus. Nicodo mis was a member of the Jewish San icdriin , the supreme council of the nation , in short was one of the judgce and senators of the land. Ho belonged od to the sect of the Pharisees , the most popular and influential of all the parties into which the Jews wcro al .hat time divided , and the out which felt its self rightcousspiritmosl deeply wounded and its powoi ihakon by the lifo nnd doctrines o ! Jesus. Wo can understand how groa' ' must have boon the struggle bcfon lie could como to rcccivo instructiot from the now teacher of Nazarath , tlio lowly Jesus , the son of Mary tmi Joseph , the carpenter. On the cno hand prejudice musi liavo led him to doubt whether one with so lowly an appearance could bi the Messiah mentioned in such glow > ing language by the prophets nnd ex pected by the people to bo A TK&iroitAr , I'JUNC'K , who was to sit on the tlirono of David aiid establish a moro extensive do- ninion than the Jewish ono had been n the time of its greatest prosperity. ) n the other hand reason told lini that no man could do hoio miracles which Jesus did except God wont with him. Pride mist have suggested that , by avowing limsolf a follower of Jesus , ho would 10 lowered in the esteem of the circle n which ho moved. Ho felt us if he leedod n teacher and n savior , and ut ho was ashamed of ono who canu n so lowly a form. For a time then nust havu. been a ntruggle in hit ireast like that between CIIAO.H AND ounr.K at creation , when the spirit moved or ho fuco of the waters , like thai vliich wo have seen between the lighl nnd thick masses of cloud at the dawr > f the day , nnd no ono but ho win both nil things can tell which is tc { am the mastery. When at length the ijood overcame ho evil , no doubt through the leading of the spirit of Jusus , it was accom tallied by an unworthy compromisi if principle. Ho resolved to go tc Icsus , but ho had not the courage tc lo so oppnly in the light of day. He vas afraid that if ho was seen in the company of the now teacher fron 3nlilcu ho would loao TUB FAVOr.AlLE OriKION of those of his own station ; and ovorj > no acquainted with human natun cnowa that most men would rathoi ese favor of these beneath thorn in rank , or ovou of tlioso nbovo them , athor than of persons of their * own uirclo , with whom they are in the mbit of daily associating. Wo ought ill to bo nshamod of our foolish deeds mt hero is one ashamed of the wisest osolution ho hod over formed. If he md boon about to visit an earthly prince ho would have shoson the light of day , but So much arc mon daaslod by the splendor of worldly station , and sc ittlo do they esteem spiritual excel- once'that ho could como to hiniwlu was born King of the Jews onlyundei slouds of concealment. If the horaUh md announced that Tiberius , the llo man emperor , had arrived in Jorusa lorno can coneoivo that Nicodomui would have selected the most public day and the most public street tt wait upon him , in the midst of imaTLiNo CHOWDH ; but now , when ho who is the Princ < of Peace , foretold by prophstn foi thousands of years , his birth celebrated bratod by angels and his power at tested by miracles , and ho himself tin king of kings and lord of lords , caim to Jerusalem ho could not como ti him except in a way which showoi that ho was nshamod of being soon ii his presence But it is well when wo como t Jesus at all. Wo will bo received 5 wo have but faith as n mustard seed Virtue will como out of him to mak us whole if wo but touch the horn c liis garment. If Nicodemus had com to an earthly prince at this unseasona bio hour ho would have boon scornful y rejected , but ho came to the Princ ) f Peace and ho received n welcome [ lo did not discourage him by * a single glo WOKII OK IlEl'HOAC'H Or look of disapprobation. The great > st of teachers proceeded to instate iim in the grand doctrine of the necessity cossity of being born again by tin Spirit of God \Vlulo \ the great prophet ot of the church taught him by hi word ho also taught him by hia spirit Ho came with iv veil over his iioai so- that he could not discern as ho heard them , the meanin of Moses nnd the prophets ; h wont away with the veil removed nn with hia mind enliijhtoned. Ho cam with hia soul dark as the night whicl enveloped him , but ho came to the BOI of rightooushess , to Him who is th huht of the world , and ho retired tin dor the light of the morning , whic liinoth moro and moro unto the m > i feet day. Upwards of two years have elapse without our hearing of the Jowis ruler. Wo do not road how ho passe this time , or whether , during if , h had any personal communication wit THE ailEAT TEA01IKU who had instructed him in the do * HiIUiiof r ° SO eration. Nicodemui after the feast , may have gone to BOIU other field of labor , Wo know tht Jesus , shortly after this interview , n tired to Ualliloo , the usual place of Hi abode , or rather of his wanderingi and their future so meetings ma not have been very frequent. Ut when Jesuspaino up. as ho did , to th great roligiou festival * of the JWi wo can conceive that Nicodemus woul wait on las ministry nnd might see opportunities of meeting with him , This is certain ; that ho would often MEET wiiit oort In spiritual communion and the teach' er who had come from God , and win had taught him the spiritual nature pi Christ's kingdom , would help him ir his devotion. Passing over this pait of his lifo we find him next presented to our view in his place in the Jewish Sanhedrim. Jeans had como to Jerusalem at the least of tabernacles and his presence had been hailed by the multi tude who crowded around him eagerly listening to the words of grace nd salvation which flowed from hie lips. A number of the poonlo bo- lio"od on him and avowed their con victions , The people wore keenly in terested , nnd their feelings wcro too loudly expressed not to come to the cars of the Pharisees and priests , who Felt as if their dominion was tottering beneath thorn. 8TU.VO IY ) MAL1CB md jealousy , n hurried meeting of the great council of the nation was called to determine what should be done in the extraordinary circum stances in which they wcro placed , It was resolved to send ofliccrs to np- irohonJ Jesus and drag him before joforo their tribunal. When the offi cers drew near to Jesus they found lim in the midst of the icoplo , inviting thorn in * the most incouraging manner to partake of the mercy brought nigh to them. ' 'II any man that thirst lot him como tc ino and drink. " Before securing their ntondcd prisoner the officers wcro in- luccd to listen , and as they did so , hey found themselves interested in the discourse. Their attention became nero and moro rivited , they caught .ho feeling of admiration which HEAVIil ) IN EVKHY HEAUT. They hesitated and delayed carryinc heir design into execution , and when Jesus finished his discourse they were so nwcd that they became complete1 ! > oworlo8B ( they allowed him to pass kway undisturbed , nnd , at the risk of icing terribly punished , they returned o those who had sent thorn out , with his signal testimony , "Nover man poke like this man. " The council sat in stern nnd sullen impa tience waiting the return of theii servants , nnd on hearing this uncx- lected answer their passion could be restrained within no bound. Horc were their own dependents failing , hem at this ordeal moment. "Art ro also deceived ? Have any of the L'harisocs believed on him , but this people who know not the l.xw are nirsod. " It is as if they had said , "This is n nopitlnr delusion ; only ; ho lowest and most ignorant of the leoplo have been DKonivnn IIY HIV ; lone of fho learned have thought foi ono moment of espousing his cause , Can you point to n single Pharisee , a single ruler , who regards him will : n friendly eye. No , it is impossible , nnd cursed must the people bo whc \ro thus liable to bo deluded. " It is n trying time to Nicodemus as ID sat there in the Council , time ; imo fitted to search him and ; o show to himself and others ; ho innermost springs and motives ellis lis naturo. Ho sees the passions ol jiothor councilors exasperated to the utmost. Not n voice in the assembly s lifted in behalf of justice. Doei tficodpnius seek nt this time to conceal coal his faith in Jesus as ho had demon on a foriiior'occasion ? No though hi hould stand alone UKK A UUKAKWATEll n the middle of the waves ho fooli limsolf called on to speak out oven houjjh ho should thus bring down up on him the ire of nil his associates Jo saw that the council was about t < > roceod to violent measures and ii anguago which showed how calm hi vas in the midst of the tempest ho pu ho simple question , "Doth our lav udge any man before ithcnrs him am CIIOWB what ho dooth ? " In the conduct of Nicodomns 01 his occasion wo discern courage nm 'aithfulnoss of the highest order. I was a testing time and Nicodomus stood it. H j said enough nnd ho sail 10 moro. It is evident that duriiij .ho two years that have elapsed sine irst wo met with w ith him , ho ha made decided progress in Till ! CHIUHTIAK UKK. Ho who , nt the first , could como t Jesus only by night , now stands b him in the open day , and in the fac of the most formidable opposition , be fore which the courage of the strong cst might have quailed. "Add t your faith virtue , ' , the old Ilomai courage , n noble quality when used ii defense of n good cause. Christ ha n kingdom nnd a cause in the wcfrld in which there is evil opposing th good. good.Again the curtain drops and month elapse before wo hear any more of th Jewish councilor. During this tim ho may have suffered not a little pei socution , owing to the suspicion raised against him by the part ho htu taken. But his faith was now utronp nnd ho could bear the trial , nnd ma have boon strengthened by it. Th wind that might blow away the foobl spark may only kindle TUB hTKOXClEll KIUK into a llamo , Everything now indi cated that the earthly course of th prophet who had appeared was draw ing to a cloao. Ho luu\ fulfilled th time } appointed in the councils o heaven and his work was about to b finished. The council of the nation headed by the hiuli priest , condemn him. Pontius Pilate , the llomni governor , when nppealod to refers th case to the people , who demand hi crucifixion. Every voice is raise against him , mid they continu to nsB.ul him in his dying ngo nios , when the vilest malefactor have often had sympathy expressed i their favor. The circumstances ar nil moro trying than these in whic ! Nicodomus had formerly been place in the Sanhodrin. At that time if h was opposed by the rulers of the Ian ho had at least the poopjo to suppoi him. Now , ho stood almost alone Uho very disciples had Hod in his hou of trial nnd only ono had the coura" to como TO THE FOOT OK T1IK CHOS3. A few pious women , scarcely ol served by the multitude , remain to d thogontloofHccs of the dead. Hoi isNicodomusnow to nctl Docs he us at first , conceal his faith , or doe ho content himself , as in the secon Distance , in uttering n protest on be half of innocence and against injus ttcefi No. ho is now ready to brav every peiil. A friend , Joseph of Ai imathoa , begs the lifeless body of Jesus sus , nnd Nicodemus joins him in preparing paring it for the sepulchcr. Far above the fear , far above UK applause of mon these two join ii their becoming offices. It would b ( difllcult to find in history a braverj superior to that of Nicodemus. Then may bo a nobler courage , than ever that of the warrior in the battle or the sailor in the storm. When Luthei defended himself before the great em peror of his ngo , and 'a council ol princes nnd prelates AS OLD OENEUAL greeted him , grasp him by the hand , " have in the thickest and sa'd , "I fought est battles of my time , but I have never , after all , shown n valor cqua to yours. " The courage of Nicodemii ! was n higher order than that whicl 'orccs and fights with danger ; it was so ardent that it did not see the danger , _ and was in iacl utterly unconscious of it. So , Christian brethren , bo not con' tented with past attainments. Uc < sielcs this , with all dilligonco , add tc your faith urtuo , nnd to virtue knowl edge , and to knowledge temperance nnd patience , and to patience godli ness , and to godliness brotherly land : icss , and to brotherly kindness char ity , for if these things bo given yoi and nbound , they make that ye shal loithcr bo barren nor unlawful in the < nowledgo of our Lord Jesus Christ. ' The true Christian docs not nllow limsolf to think that ho has attained , or that ho is AtnEADY PKHPECT , 3Ut forgetting the things that arc bo lind , ho prcsscth forward to those , hat are before. Ho may not bo per 'cct but ho is seeking to bo perfect , Like a good soldier of Christ , ho will not cease from the contest till ho has : onquorcd these sins which arc Dhnst's enemies nnd are his own ene mies. Wo are to continue the contest until wo have slain the lost of jur spiritual enemies. If il is objected that this must bo till deatr the I say that oven until death we must continue faithful. The Chris < tian dies in nrmor , ns wo have hoard of the warrior dying in the battle at the moment when his troops wore raising the shout of victory. The last sound which ho hears on earth h the clang of arms in his final contest with sin ; oven ns the first sounc which ho hears in heaven is the song of triumph , "Blessing and honor antJ , ; lory and power bo unto him thai sitteth on the throne and the laml that was slain.
