JACKSON, CLINTON., , but except' ye repenit, ye sheet all like: 'WITHOUT August 14th, 1913 enveie wise perish, Or those eighteen, on wheal the' tower of Siloam fell and blew thein, think ye that they were binners above all men that dwelt' in Jerusalem ? I tell you, nay; but. ex- cept ye repent, ye shall alllikewise perish."—Luke 13 ; 1-5. Noble and praiseworthy in the sight of both God and men are the generous impulses of charity and sympathy, atvalcened by the Merril calamities 1111011mila, Dayton, Coltun- bus and elsewhere. Those bereaved of home and family are ;deserving our deepest. sympathy an;d ablest assist- ance, but is it. not well to inquire at this tinte, what may be God's pur- pose in permitting all this suffering? 'l'o comprehend thib cause fully, we muet go far hack,, to the very begin- ning of sickness, pain, death and sor- row—to the Garden of Eden, where man and his surroundings and con- ditions were pronounced "very good," even by God himself,. and must certainly have been greatly, ap- preciated by man, who bed to be driven out and prevented front re- turning by the fiery, sword -which kept the way of access to tim life- sustaining fruits of the Garden. A;dain awl Eve, therefore, went forth from Eden convicts, under sen- tence 'of death ; self -convicted under the most, best of all judgee,, their Creator" and Friend, The convicts esteemed it a imeeey to ,he allowed, to die gradually: rather than sudden- ly ; while to the Creator and: Judge this was expedient because of His plan for their future, in which , ex- periences with imperfect conditione would be or great Value—a plan for the increase of the race, and for its discipline and final redemption and restoration. The death penalty, inflicted in this manner, GOtt foresaw would, through experience, furnish man such a les- son on the exceeding einfulness of ein and its baneful results as would never need to be repeated. Had the death senterre of God (in addition to. a loss of Eden's comforts and beneficial , experience with ; sin and death) condemned His creatureto art eternity of torment and anguish, as some still believe and teach, who could defend etich a sentence, or call the Judge just or loving, or in any sense good ? Surely no one of 11 sound mind ! But when it is seen that the Scriptures teach that death (extinc- tion), and not life in torment, was the penalty protrounced and inflicted, all is reasonable. Cod has a right to ;demand perfect obedience from His perfect creature when placed tin- der perfect conditions, ah in Adam's case. And the decree that none shall live everlasrtingly except the perfect, is' both a wise and a just provision for the everlasting welfare of all God's creatures. We can see, then that labor and toil were prescribed 'for man's good. They have kept him so employed that he could not plan and consum- mate evil to the sante extent that lie otherwise would have done. And as the earth becomes more tertile, approaching perfection., man'st becomes less ; so that now, with greater leisure to plot and scheme ard grow wise in evil, the period of life in which to do 00 is shorter, What a mercy in disguise is present shortness of life, under 'present con- ditions I Were some of our "shrewd busintss men" who accumulate mil- lions of dollars and grasp great pow- er in a few short years, to live e30 years, as Adam did, what might we expect but that one man, or at most a syndicate or trust, would own every foot of latd, control every drop of tvater and every breath of air, and have the rest of the race for their d'upes and elavee ? Man is exposed to these gaIornitie, and accidents, and not defereled from, than by this loving Creater, because, first, man is a shriller condemned to death, and' is not to be spa;red from it, but inuell be allowed ter pass through ot and secondly, by the present exgeriences with trouble and sorrow and pain, all at which are elefaiteteltsn aofrodeisatyhirt, gmuapir alfs isteaorn-ing re of experience which will be valuable in the coming millennium age.
