MAN'S GRERIESI INSP1RT1O • Eternal 1 -lope Is the Command Given by God to Man "Who against hope believed In hope." ► --Roniali, iv., 18. The mod. wretched of his specie.% is the than without lupe. 1Io Ls more than wvrelcltod, ho is inexcusably criminal ause an offender ag)tinst divine law, %%loll the apostle emphasized in his masterly appeal to the) Homans. To hope and to hope always is a com- mand so stringent that agaip inst he we MUM believe in hope. Th. wt,rits 4,1 St. Paul .suggest a picture in which 11.,pt-e is portrayed supine and gusg:ing while ministering Faith bends over it and arowebs it into life and straight and cununanding beauty. A miracle Inily tFic b. bill within the power of religion and attested by reason and experience. That such marvel may be performed, nay, that it is 1)4►t beyond the reach of any soul. is snlace unspeakable. It 111P11113 that anyone may bar f►rever against himself the gates of despair. it is a trumpet call for highest courage 111141 achi.'veinent. It implies; a command which it unuttered by the Creator would pass by unhetvlexl. . But (ksl will; il, therefore it can be obeyed. Though it carts for a flight of hope against ilscrlf, it is not a contradie- tior nor a paradox. but carried to its ultimate conse(Ittences IT \IE NS Tltlt'\1f'ET. it Ls universal in its application, bars no man from its sway and eliminates no combination of circumstances. It en- joins upon one absolute refusal to sur- render save to the inevitable doom of ue all. Moreover, it finds n response in man's heart. "Never say die!" is a cry as olii as the race. All the mythologies reflect it. ChrLstinnily consecrates it. The old world felt its truth ; 14) the new it was given to understand it. On sea and land, on every battlefield since the dawn of history has it !evil heard. Said a sea captain : "As long as Uier0 is 0110 square foot of dry deck stick to the pumps.., The soldier 0s well ns the general has exclaimed that "the old guard never surrender!" Vet how rnaliy, unlhhnk- Ine, or in eownrdice, have lowered the flag! They were not men who squared their conduct according to the Christian spirit. 6041, while cloning the portals of Eden upon our despairing progenitors, lit the tenelh of hope and gave it to them as an inheritance to be kept alive end Ire►n6tuitt' 1 10 their posterity. The liedeasiher intensified its light and broad- ened its flange so that to luso hope now is to sin against Divine Providence. There has never been a mandate to despair. No matter what the environ- ment, how dark the outlook, over and above all is 11143 inspiration of hope. \\'hal man's voice prewails against the utterance of faith? \\'hen a man says there is no hope, where is 11Ls guaran- The physician .says : "The man will d:e with the dawn." The roan lives yet. A man is in the clutches of adversity ; has lost his all. l.0 1 on the frag- ments of his forlt.tno he builds A COLOSSAL INl)l11:NDENCE the criminal staggers from depth to depth; he is lighting with the swine fun• their husks. 1.4)! tie is on the n eel to his h..►me, ill his father's arras, the rung on his linger and the princely mantle on his shoulders. Ilik:ory has not chrr)nicle41 every hopeful deed. Ships a -many, despaired of, have come to port ; from many '`last ditches" have been unfurled flags of victor)'. The "last chance" Ls a mean- ingless word. What Iran has the right to predict or determine it ? No chance is 1110 last one while a mon lives. In- numerable and unseen doors area waiting the "open sesnln©' of Providence to come afar and reveal vistas undreamed, restoration, relief, redemption. 1 .ast chances have often hle,ssonnnetl into mul- titudinous opportunities. The hope Paul speaks of is not supine. but active. 11 puts heart in a man as nothing elso does. It is the mother of resurrection. 64)d, the author and finisher of (rope, be praised ! For from Him COtrhes 1110 confidence which says : "There is a way out ; if 1 cannot find it will make it." This !tope, heaven descended, ap- f'ro:►ve'rt by reason and sanctioned by ex- perience, cannot bo bafTied. '1'o hope against hope is the basis of chem^ter. The truest test of a man is to hope agnin.st hope. and to pluck success out of the very heart of failure. P. A. Il:1T.PIN. remoti*******: HOME. rl*********** HOME COOKING.
