TEE GREATEST NAME.
REV. DR. TALMAGE DISCOURSES FROM
PHILLIPIANS 2, 9.
Something in a Name—Paul's Rapturous
Declaration Over the Name of Christ—
Names Shouldbe Beautiful, Nighty, and
Enduring—A Powerful Sermon.
Bitooxvin, N. Y., May 1, 1892.—This
morning Dr. Talmage discouraed from the
text Phillipians 2, 9 "The name which is
shove every name."
Paul is here making rapturous and en-
thusieeticdescription of the name of Christ.
There are merely worldly names that some-
times thrill you through and through.
Such was the name of Henry Clay to a
Kentuckian, the name of William Wirt to
a Virginian, the name of Daniel Webster to
a New Englander.
By common proverb we have come to
believe that "there is nothing in a name";
and so parents sometimes at the baptismal
altar give titles to their children, reckless
of the fact that that title, that name, will
be a lifetime hindrance or a lifetime help.
You have no right to give your child a
name leaking either in euphony or moral
meaning.It is a sin to call a child Jehoia-
kim, or Tiglath-pileser—or by anything
that is disagreeable. Because you have had
an exasperating name yourself is no reason
why you itimuld inflict it upon your pro-
geny. And yet how often is it that we see
a name full of jargon rattling down from
generation to generation, simply because a
long while ego some one happened to
afflicted with it. Institutions and pat
enterprises sometimes., without sufficient
deliberation take nomenclature. Mighty
destinies have been decided by a, name.
While we may, by a long course of Chris-
tian behavior, get over the misfortune ot
having been baptized -with *e name ot a
despot or cheat, how much better it
would have been if we could have all start-
ed life without any such encumbrance!
When Paul, in my text and in other pas-
sages of Scripture'burst forth in aspira-
tions of admiratienfor the name of Christ,
1 want to inquire what are the characteris-
ties of that appelbaion, "The name which
is above every name." In the first place,
speaking to you in regard to the name of
Christ, I want to tell you it is an easy
name. You are sometimes introduced to
people with long and unpronounceable
names, and you have to listen cautiously
to get the names, and yau have to hear
them pronounced two or three times before
you risk trying to utter them; but weithin
the first two years the little child folds its
hands and. looks upward, and says "Jesus."
Can it be that in all this church this
morning there are representatives of any
household wherein the children are familiar
with the names of the father and mother
and brother and sister,' yet know nothing
about "that name which is above every
name?" Sometimes you .forget the name
of a quite familiar frieiad, and you have to
think before you get it; but can you im-
agine any freak of intellect by which you
should forget the name of Jesus? That
word seems to fit the tongue in every dia-
lect. Down to old ace, when the voice is
tremulous, and uncertain, and indistinct,
even then this regal word find potent ut-
terance.
When an aged father was dying, one of
the children came and said, "Father, do
you know me?" and in the delirium of
the last sickness he said, "Ne, I don't know
von." Another child came and said, "Father,
-do you know me?" "No," he said, "I don't
know you." Then the village pastor came
in and said, "Do you. know me?" He said,
"No, I don't think I ever saw you." Then
saicl the minister, "Do you know Jesus ?"
"Oh, yes 1" said the dying man, "I know
Jesus, chief among ten thousand is he, and
the one altogether lovely." Yes, for all
ages and for all languages, and for all con-
ditions Jesus' is an easy name.
But I remark further in regard to this
name of Christ, that it is a beautiful name.
Now you have noticed that you cannot dis-
associate a name from the character of the
person who has it. There are some names,
for instance, that are repulsive to my ear.
Those names are attractive to your ear.
What is the difference? Why, I happen-
ed to know some persons of that name who
were cross, or sour, or queer, or unsympa-
thetic'and the persons you have happened
to know of that name were kind and
genial. Since, then, we cannot disassoeiate
a name from the character ot the person
who has the name, that consideration
makes the name of Jesus unspeakably
beautiful. I cannot pronounce that name
in your presence, but you think of Bethle-
hem. and Gethsemane and Golgotha, and.
you see his loving face and you hear his
tender voice, and you feel his gentle touch.
As soon as I pronounce his name in Your
presence you think of him who banqueted
with heavenly hierarchs yet came down
and breakfasted on the fish which the rough
men hauled out of Genesaret ; you think of
him who, though the clouds are the dust of
his feet, walked footsore on the road to
Emmaus. I cannot speak his name in your
hearing this warning, but you think right
away of the shining one who helped the
blind man to sunlight, and who made the
cripplehi crutch useless, and who looked
down into the laughing eyes of the babe
until it struggled to go to him; then fling-
ing his arms around it, and impressing a
kiss upon:its beautiful brow, said, "Of such
is the kingdom of heaven."
Oh, beautiful name, the name of Jesus,
which stands for love, for pa,tience, for self-
sacrifice, for magnanimity, for everything
that is good and glorious and tender and
sympathetic and kind! It is aromatic with
all odors. It ais accordant wiah all har-
monies. Sometimes, when I look at that
name of Jesus Christ, it seems as if the let-
ters were made of tears, and then they
seem to be gleaming crowns. Some-
times that name seems to be twisted out
of the straw on which he lay, and then
it seems to be built out of the thrones
on -which his people are to reign. Some-
times I sound that word Jesus, and I
hear it in the sob of Gethsemane and the
groan of Calvalry, and then I speak his
name and it is all a -ripple with gladness
and a -ring with hosanna. Glorious
name
Take all the glories of bookbindery and.
put them around the page on which that
e‘narrie is printed. On Christmas morning
-wreath it on the wall. Let it drip from
harp's string and lee it thunder out in
or n's diapason. Sound it often, sound it
welt until every star shall seem to shine
it, and every flower shall seem to breathe
it, and mountain and sea, and day and
night, and earth and heaven acclaim in full
chant, "Blessed be his glorious name for-
ever," "The name which - is above every
natne."
Have you ever heard in a Methodist
church, during a time of revival, scores of
souls come to the alter and cry out for
mercy under the power of just two lines of
glorious old John Wesley?
Jesus, the name high over all,
In heaven, or earth, or sky.
To the repenting soul, to the exhausted
invalid, to the Sunday -school girl, to the
snow-white octogenarian it is beautiful.
The aged man comes in ?min a long walk,
and he tremulously opens the door of his
home, and be hangs his hat ow the old
nail, and he -puts his cane in the usual
place, and he lies on his couch, and he says
to his children and his grand -children :
"My dears, I am going away from you."
And they say : "Why, where are you go-
ing, grandfather ?" "Oh," he says. "I am
going to Jesus"; and so;the old man faints
away into heaven.
And the little child comes in from play
--' and sloe flines herself in your Ian. eecl
Um "Mamma, ros so Slot, rm so very
sick'; and you pat leer to bed, and the
fever is worse and worse, and some mid-
night, while you are shaking up the pillow
and givinirthe medicine; she looks up in
your &Wand says, "Mamma, I'm going
mra3rfrom yen. You y, "Why, where
are you going, 'sky aiding " And she
says, 01 am going to Jails." And -the led
cheek that you take to be the mark of the
fever turns out to be only the carnation
bloom of heaven.
Oh ! was it not beautiful when a little
child heard that her playmate was dying,
and went to the house, and she clambered
upon the bed of her dying playmate, and
she mid to the dying ,ptaymate, "Where
are you going to?" and the dying girl said,
"I'm going to Jesus." Then said the little
girl that was well, as she bent over to give
the parting kiss to her dying playmate,
"Well, then, if you are going to Jesus, give
any love to Him. It ia a beautiful name,
whether on the lips of childhood or on the
lips of the old man. When my father was
dying, the village minister said to him,
quoting over his pillow this passage: "This
is a faithful saying and worthy of all accep-
tation, that Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners," and there he stopped.
Then my father finished the quotation by
saying, of whom I am chief.'
But I remark again, in regard to this
name of Christ, that is a mighty name.
Rothschild is a name mighty in the com-
mercial world, Silliman is a name mighty
in the scientific world, Irving is a name
mighty in the literary world, Washington
is the name mighty in the political world,
Wellington it a name mighty in the mili-
tary world; but Where in all the earth is a
name so potent to lift, and thrill, and
arouse., and rally, and bless, as the name
Jesus? Why,"the sound of that one name
unhorsed Saul, and threw Newton on his
face on shire's deck ; and that one name to-
day, while 1 speak, holds a hundred mil-
lion souls under omnipotent spell. That
name in England to -day means more than
Victoria. In Germany tha,t name to -day
means more theft Emperor William. Oh,
mighty name!
I have seen a man bound hand ;and foot
of the devil and captive of all evil habits,
at the sound of that name dash down his
shackles and march out forever free.
I have seen a man overcome of misfortune
and trial, every kind of troubles had he;
but at the sound of that name the sea
dropped and the clouds parted, and the
sunburst of eternal gladness poured upon
his soul. I have seen a man hardened in in-
fidelity, defiant of God, full of jeer and
scoff, jocose of the judgment day, reckless
of eternity, .at the sound at that name
blanch, and cower, and groan, and kngel,
and weep, and repent, and pray, and beli-
eve, and rejoice, and triumph.
But I remark again, the name of Christ
is an enduring name. You get over the
fence of the graveyard and you pull the
weeds back from the name that has nearly
faM from the tombstone, and you wish
that Walter Scott's "Old Mortality" would
come along and rechisel it so that you
might really find out what the name is.
Why, that was the name of the greatest
man in all the town, heal' the country, in
all the State, now almost faded from the
tombstone. And so the greatest names of
this world either have perished or are per-
ishing. Gregory VL, Sancho of Spain,
Conrad I. of Germany, Richard I. of Eng-
land, Catharine of Russia. Those names
were once mighty, and they made the earth
tremble. Who cares for them now? None
so poor as to do them reverence. But the
name of Christ is enduring forever. It will
be preserved in the world's fine art. There
will be other Bellinis to sketch the
Madonna, and other Ghirlandaajos to pre-
sent the baptism of Christ, and other
Bronzinos to show Christ visiting the
spirits in prison, and other Giottos to
appal the vision with the Crucifixion. It
will be preserved in the world's literature.
There will be other Alexander Popes to
write the "Messiah," and other Dr. Youngs
to celebrate His triumph, and other Cow-
pers to sing His love. It will be preserved
in the world's grand and elaborate archi-
tecture, and Protestantism shall have its
St. Mark'a and its St. Peter's. it shall be
preserved in the world's literature, for
there will be other Paleys to write the
"Evidences of Christianity." More than
all, it will be embalmed in the hearts Of
all the good of earth, and all the great
ones of Heaven. Shall the emancipated
bondman ever forget who set him free?
Shall the blind man ever forget the divine
physician who gave him sight? Shall the
lost and wandering ever forget who brought
them home? Why, to make the world for-
get that name would be to burn up all the
Bibles, and burn down all the churches,
and then, in the spirit of universal arson,
go through the gate of heaven and put the
torch to all the temples and mansions and
palaces, until. in the awful conflagration
all heaven went down and the'people come
out to look upon the charred ruins; but
even then they would hear the name of
Christ in the thunder of felling towers and
in the erash of temple walls, and see it in-
terwoven into the flying banners of flame,
and the redeemed of heaven would say:
"Let the temples and the palaces burn; let
them burn; we have Jesus left." Blessed.
be His glorious name forever. The name
which is above every name.
_My friend, have you made up your mind
by what narrie you will accost Christ, when
you see Him in Heaven? Now, that is a
practical question. For you will see Him,
child of God, just as certainly as you sit
there and I stand here. ,By what name
have you made up your mind to call Christ
when you first meet Him in Heaven? Will
you call Him "Anointed One," or "Mes-
siah?" or will you take some one of the
symbolic terms which you read in your
Bible on earth—terms by which Christ was
designated?
Some day perhaps you will be wandering
among the gardens of God on high, the
place abloom with eternal springtime, in-
finite luxury of lily and rose and amar-
anthe, and perhaps you will look up into
the face of Christ and say, "My Lord,
thou art the Rose of Shron and the Lily
of the Valley." Some time there will be a
new soul come into heaven to take its place
in the firmament and shine as the stars
forever and ever, and the lustre of a use-
ful life will shine forth tremulous and
beautiful, and you will took up into
the face of Christ and say, "My
Lord, thou art a bright star, the
Morning Star, the Star of Jacob, the Star
of the Redeemer." Some day you will be
walking among the fountains that, toss in
the sunlight, ?ailing in crash of pearl and
amethyst into golden and crystalline urn,
and wandering up the round banked river
to the place where the water first trinkles
its silver on the rock, and from chalices
of love you will be drinking to honor
and everlasting joy, and you will look
up into the face of Christ and say, "My
Lord, my Lord, thou art the Foun-
tain of Living Water." Some day you
will be wandering among the 'webs and
sheep of Heaven feeding by the rock, re-
joicing in the care of Him who broueht
you out of the wilderness world into the
sheepfold, and you will look up into His
face, and say, "My Lord, my Lord. thou
art the Shepherd of the Everlasting Hills."
But there is another name by which you
can call him. Perhaps that will be the
name I have not mentioned yet. I ima-
gine that Heaven is all full. Every
throne has its king. Every harp has its
harper. All the wealth of the universe has
come into heaven. There is nothing to be
added. The song full. The ranks full.
The mansions all full. Heaven hill. The
sun will set afire with its epiendor the
domes of the tethple, and burnish the
golden streets into a blaze, and be reflected
back from the solid pearl of the twelve
gates, and tt will be noon in Heaven. Noon ,
on tne river. Noon on the hills. Noon in
the valleys. Hieh noon. And then you
will look up, gradually accustoming your
vision to the sight, shading your.,eyes at
the first lest !they be extinguished with
the insufferable splendor, until after a
while you can look upon the full irradia-
tion, and you will cry out, "My ,Lord, my
Lord, Thou art The Sun that never Sets."
But at this point I am staggered- with
the thought that there may be persons in
this house for whom this name has no
oharm, though it is so easy, though it is
so beautiful, though it is so potent, though
it is so enduring. Oh 1 come to -day, and
see whether there is anything in Christ. I
challenge you to test with me this morn-
ing whether God is good, and whether
Christ is precious, and whether the Holy
Ghost is omnipotent. Come, my brother, I
challenge you. Come,and we will kneel at
the altar ot mercy. You kneel on one side
ot the altar and I will kneel on the other
side of the altar of mercy, and we will not
get up from our knees until our sins are
pardoned and we are able to ascribe all
honor to the name—you pronouncing it and
I pronouncing it—"the name which is above
every name."
Ho Mad. Us Free.
As flame streams upward, so my longing
thought
-Fliesnip with thee,,
Thou God and Saviour, who has truly
wrought
Life out of death, and to us'loving brought
A fresh, new world, and In thy sweeechaIns
caught,
And made us free 1 '
As hyacinth makes way from out the dark,
My soul awakes,
At thought of thee, like sap beneath the bark;
As little violets in field and park
Rise to the trilling thrush and meadow lark,
New hope it takes.
As thou goest upward through the nameless
space
We call the sky,
Like jonquil perfume softly falls the grace;
Itaeems to touch and brighten every place,
Fresh flowers crown our wan and weary
race,
0 thou on high.
Hadst thou not risen, there would be no joy
Upon earth's sod;
Life would be still with us a wound or toy,
A cloud without the sun -0 babe, 0 boy,
0 man of mother pure, with no alloy,
0 risen God 1
Thou God and king, didst "mingle in the
game,"
(Cease, all fears, cease l)
For love of us --not to give Virgirs fame
Or Crcesus' wealth, not to make well the
lame,
Or save the sinner from deserved shame,
But for sweet peace !
For -peace, for joy—not that the slave might
lie
In luxury;
Not that all woe from us should always fly,
Or golden crops with Syrian roses vie
In every field, but in thy peace to die
And rise—be free!
—Maurice Francis Egan.
Things Worth Knowing.
It is a good idea to have a dish of lemons
served with any kind of fish.
The true physiological method of treating
burns or scalds is to at once exclude the air
with cotton batting, flour, scraped potato,
varnish, white of an egg, paste, or anything
that is most quickly obtained.
A clean 'mate may be made of two parts
gum tragacanth and one part powdered
gum arabic. Cover with cold water until
dissolved, then reduce to the desired con-
sistency with the same. To prevent sour-
ing add a few drops of carbolic acid.
A Society Echo.
He was one of those nicety -nice little
men who always answer in the stilted con-
ventional phrase of the day, whether the
subject is giddy or grave.
And she was a tall girl who looked down
on him from her graceful height and mur-
mured in a sorrowful voice:
"It's too bad to be so high up in the
world, Mr. Blank, isn't it ?"
And he said with his usual happy facility
of response:
"Not a tall, not a tall," and then wished
he hadn't said it.
Human Endurance.
The Rev. Dr. Fourthly—The capacity of
the human organism to stand a prolonged
strain is wonderful. I preached a sermon
once three hours and a half long, and was
as fresh at the close as when I began. I
have always looked upon it as a moat re-
markable instance of human endurance..
The Rev. Dr. Goodman—It was, indeed.
But a congregation that is under good con-
trol will sometimes endure a great deal.
Misapplied Truth.
"Just look at him !" said a new lawyer
in a Pennsylvania cella, "there is 'villain'
written upon his very brow. He has the
hang -dog look of the murderer. I ask you,
gentlemen, to look at him and say if you
ever saw a worse frontispiece on a mor-
tal—"
The court (interrupting)—That, sir, is
the crown attorney you are pointing at.
"Very well, your honor, even the truth
is sometimes misapplied !"
Car Fire From ltioctric Light.
A car of the Great Northern, of England,
is supposed to have taken fire from the
electric lighting wires with which it was
equipped. The cars are lighted by electri-
city, the curmint behm supplied by a
dynamo in the rear van. Flames
were discovered issuing from the chamber
in which the dynamo stands. The train
was stopped and the fire quickly extinguish-
ed. It is supposed that the fire was set by
defective insulation.
A Difference of Opinion.
Rivers—I always admired Bcirus. I think
he is a remarkably gifted man..
Banks—I suppose he is, but he's tiresome.
I wish he wasn't always trying to show off
his elocution.
Rivers—Why, great Cxsar, max! That's
his gift !
Tubes 'Between England and Francon
The proposed plan for the postal tube
between France and England is to suepend
two tubes, each about three feet in
diameter, by means ot steel cahles thrown
across the channel, 120 feet above the level
of the water.
—A California "big tree" has been selec-
ted in Tulare county, to be shown at the
Exposition at Chicago in 1893. A com-
mittee of the Board of Trade, after an ex-
tended tour of iespection, picked out a tree
measuring eighty-seven feet, nine inches in
circumference at the base, eighty-five feet
above the ground and sixty-five feet at a
height of sixteen feet.
—People like to trade with genial sales-
men. They like to be waited upon by men
who are affable, polite, attentive and per-
sonally agreeable. They instinctively avoid
a clerk or a salesman who is impertinent,
officious, inattentive and indifferent. Many
a clerk has failed to effect a sale of goods
that were really desired, becaese his manner
was offensive, and his way of waiting cn a
customer ceated a feeling of ill -humor and
im pa tience. '
—Fifty-one metals are now known to ex-
ist. Four hundred years ago' only seven
were known.
—Said one who is posted : " It is no use
for a, man to buck against a newspaper, for
it has thousands of mouths to his one. The
only way to get to windward of them news-
paper fellows is to buy up a controlling in-
terest in their sheet, or to subscribe for it
and pay in advance."
