RE SHALL YET SAVE THEE
A Man For Whom Events Have
Gone Wrong.
A despatch from Brooklyn, N. Y.,
says: .Bev. Nowell Dwight Ilillis,
pastor of Plymouth Church, Brook-
lyn, preached front the following
text:—
"Though the earth be removed and
though the mountains bo carried in-
to the midst of the sea, yet will I

"Hope thou in Cod for lie shall

Our city holds a few people who
seem chosen to good fortune. Ilealth,
money, a troop of friends, offices,
position, all aro theirs. One itis -
tortillas alone happens to them —
when Christanas comes they know of
nothing that they do not already
possess. Others thore are chosen
to adversity and trouble. 'Ther
health is insecure, they aro poor,
obscure, neglected and all the storms
of life beat in upon them. In an
unfriendly stood Fate seems to have
emptied upon these a quiver full of

Lesson XI. The Slavery of Sin. The truth shall make you Free--
Golden Test, John 8.34. Free indeed (verso 30), or free in tho
deepest, truest stylise. Jesus is
speaking of intellectual and moral
freedom from error, which, after all,
is the greatest of all enslaving
powers. The bondage of error is
worse than physical bondage,
the slavery of sin worse than politi-
cal dependence.

many- fiat ions.
.Never in bondage—A claim which
was contrary to fact. Egypt. Baby-
lonia, and Syria had in succession
had dominion over Palestine, while
its subjugation to Route was at this
time absolute. Yet the proud spirit
of the Hebrews constantly rebelled
against this bondage, submitting to
it only as something unreal and
transitory in the progress of the na-
tion toward ultimate triumph and a
world (dominion. Ilow, then, could
this Rabbi be so unpatriotic as to
imply that they were not a free peo-
ple? 'I'hua they miss utterly the true
import of the words of .Jesus. But
their spiritual pride is even greater
than their national conceit, and the
explanation Jesus gives of hls in-
tended meaning, since it implies the
possibility of sin on their part, is
more bitterly resented by them even
than were his words in the sense in
which t hey first understood them.

the anger of the members of the San-

take Jesus, but who had returned
empty-handed with no other excuse
to oiler than that never man so

after a brief interval, though in
all probability on the sande day, he
delivered the discourse on "Light of
the World" recorded in Joint 8, 12-

mits the correctness of the civil re-

their actions prove with equal con-
clusiveness their spiritual and moral
