TALMAGE DENIES THAT CHRISTIAN- ITY IS WANING. ••••••••••••••••••••••••11MMO The Statement That the Rible is Beeman 1 Ing Obsolete Refuted With Efoquence and Argument—The Growth .of Chria- tionity From Early Days. .BROOKLYN, N. Y., March 18.—In the Tabernacle to -day, Rev. Dr. Tahriage preached a most eloquent and character- istically Vi'g,orous Sermon in refutation of that- oft -renewed assertion of the enemies of religion that Ceristianity is retrograding and -the Bible losing its hold upon -the hears ace consciences of men. The -subject of the discourse as announced was: From Conquest Co Con- quest, the text being taken from Amos 9, 13, "Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that the ploughman shall overtake the reaper." Picture of a tropical clime with a sea- son so prosperous that . the harvest reaches clear over to the planting dine, and the swarthy husbandman swinging the sickis in the tack grain almost, feele the breath of the horses on his shoul- ders, the horses hitched to the plough preparing for a new crop. "13ehold the days come, smith, the Lord, that the e ploughman shall overtake the reaper." When is that? That is now ? That is this day when hardly have you dotie reaping one harvest before, tile plough- man is getting ready for another. I know that many declare that Chris- tianity has collapsed, that the Bible is an obsolete. book, .that the Christian Church is on the retreat. I will here and now show that the opposite ef that is true. An Arab guide was leadiug a Freuch infidel across a t desert, and ever and anon the Arab guide wouldgetdown in the sand and pray to the Lord. It dis- gusted the French intidel, and after awhile as the Arab -got up front oue of his prayers the infidel said: "How do you know there is a- )7- God ?" and the Arab said: "How uo I know that it man and a camel passed along our tent last night? I know it by the footprints in the sand. And you want to know how I know whether there is any God. Look at that sunset. Is that the foot- step Of a man?" And by the same pro- cess you and I have come to understand that tbis Book is the footstep of a God. But now let ussee whether the Bible is a last year's almanac. Let us see whether the Church of God is in a Butt Run retreat, muskets, canteens and hav- ersacks strewing% all the way. The great English historian, Sharon Turner, a man of vast learning and of great accu- racy, not a clergy -mare but an attorney, as well as an historiau, gives this over- whelming statistic in regard to Christian. ity and in regard to the number of Chris- tians in the different centuries. In the firet century 500,000 Christians; in the sec- ond century, 2,000,000 Christians.: in the third century, 5,000,000 • Christians ; in, the fourth century,10,000,000 Christians; in the fifth hentury, 15,000,000 Chris- tians ; in the sixth century, 20,000,000 Christians ; in the seventh centery, 24,- 000,000 Christians ; in the eighth cen- tury, 30,000,000 Christians ; iu the ninth century, 40,000,000 Christians ; in the tenth century, 50,000,000 Christians ; in the eleventh century, 70,000,000 Chris- tians; in the twelfth century, 80,000,000 Christians ; in the thirteenth century, 75,000,000 Christians ; in the fourteentil ceetury, 80,000,000. Christians ; in the fteenth ceni tuts-, 100,006,000 Ci I ristians; the sixteenth century, 125,000,000 hristitins ; in the seventeenth century, 55,000,000 Christians; in the eighteenth en tury, 200,000,000 Chris t la es—a de- adence, as you will observe in only one enturee and more_ than made up in the flowing centuries, while it is re usual computation that there ill be, s.hen the record of the nide- tenth century is naade up, at least 0,000,000 Christians.

I go into a court, and reyer 1 find a judge's bench or a k's -desk I find a Bible. Upon what could there be uttered the solem- of an-oatli ? What book is apt to ut in the trunk of the young men as leaves for city life? The Bible. at shall I find in nine out of every homes in Brooklyn? The Bible, in out of every ten'homes in Christen- ? The Bible. Voltaire wrote the hecy that the Bible in the nine- th century would become extinct. century is , nearly gone, and as e have been mote Bibles published 0 latter part of the century than in ormer part of the century, do you k the Bible will become extinct its ext six years. I have to tell you the room in vrhich Voltaire wrote prophecy, -not long ago was crowd- om floor to Ceiling with Bibles from zerland. Suppose the Congress of nited States should pass a law that should be no snore Bibles printed merica, and no more Bibles read. If are forty million grown people in United States, there would be million people in an army put down such a law and d their right to read the .

Could you get forty million people to go out and risk their lives in defence of Shakespeare's tragedies or Gladstone's - tracts-, or Mac- aulay's History of England? You know that there are a thousand merr 'vii() Nvould die in defence of this book, e here there is not more than one man who tvould die in defence of any other book. .

A hundred tbensande Which is the more popular? Why of course the one that has a hun- dred thousand Circulation. And if this boOk has more copies abroad in the world, if there are five times as many Bibles abroad as any other book, does- not that show you that the most pophlar.bodk on the planet to -day is the Word of God? "Oh," say people, 0"tie Church is a collection of hypocrites, and it ile losing its power and it is fading out from the world." Issit ? A bishop of the Meth°. dist Church told me that that denominae tion averages two new churches every day of the year. There are at least fif- teen hundred new Christian churches as built in America every year. Does that look though the Church werefading out, as though it were a defunct institution? Which institution stands nearest the hearts of the people of America to -day? I, do not carein what village or in what city? or , what neighborhood you go. Winch institution is it? Is it the post - office? Is it the hotel? Is it the lectur- ing hall? Ali, you know it is not. You know that the institution which stands nearest to the hearts of the American people is the Christian Church. If you have ever seen a church burn down, you have seen thousands of people standing and looking at it—people who. never go . into a church—the tears running down their cheeks. The whole story is told. - You may talk about the Church being a collection of hypocrites, but when the diphtheria sweeps your children off, 'whom do you send for? The postmas- ter? The attorney -general? The !Hirai - keeper; Alderman? No; yea send for a minister of this Bible -religion. And if you have not a room in your house for the obsequies. what building do you solicit? Do you say, "Give me the finest room in the hotel ?"- Do you say, "Give me that theatre?" Do you say, "Give me a placesin that public build- ing, where I can- lay my dead for a lit- tle while until we say a prayer over it?" No; you say, "Give us the- house of God." And if there is a song to be sung at the obsequies, what do . you want? What dos- anybody want? - The Mar- seillaise hymn! God Sete, the Queen? Our own grand national air? . No. They want the hymn with which they sang their old ohrlstian mother into her last sleep, or they want sung the Sabbath School hymn which their little girl sang the last Sabbath afternoon she was out before she got that awful sickness which broke your heart. I appeal to yOur com- mon sense. . You know the most endear- ing institution on earth, the most popu- lar institution on earth to -day, is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. . Tke infidelssay : "Infidelity shows its successes from the fact that it is every- where accepted, and it can say what it will." Why, my friends, infidelity is not half so blatant in our day as it was in the days . of our fathers. Do you know that in the days' of our fathers there were pronounced infidels in public' authority and they could get any politi- cal position? Let a man to -day declare himself antagonist to the Christian reli- gion, and what city i wants him for mayor, what State waats him for Gov- ernor, what nation wants him for preSi- dent or for king? Let a man openly proclaim libuself the enemy of our glorious Christianity, afnd he cannot get a majority of votes in any State, in any oity, in any county, in any ward of Ani - erica. Dc. you think that sueh a seene could 1 .• be enacted now as was enacted in the days of Rosespierre, when a shameless woman was elevated as a goddess, and was carried in a golden .chair to a cathe- dral where incense was burned to - her and people bowed down before her as a divine being, she taking the piece of the Bible and God Almighty, while in the cor- ridor of that cathedral Were enacted such scenesofdrunkennessanddeba.uohery and obscenity as have never been witnessed? Do you believe such /tithing could pos- sibly occur in Christendom to -day? No sir. The police, whether in Paris or 'New York, would swoop on it. I know infidelity makes a good deal of talk in our day. It is on the isrinciple that if a man jump overboard- from a Cunard steamer he makes more excitement than all the five hundred people who stay on the decks. But the fact that h. jumps overboard—does that I stop the ship? Does that wreck the five hundred pas- sengers? It makes great excitement when a man jumps frhm the lecturing platform, or from the pulpit, into infi- delity; but does that keep the Bible and the Church from carrying the millions of passengers into the.skies? • They say, these mei, that science is overcoming religion in our day. , They look through spectacles of the infidel scientists, and they! say, "It is impos- sible that this book can be true; people are finding it out; theiBible has got to go overboard; sCience is going to throw it overboard,. ' Do you believe that the Bible account of the origin of life will be overthrown by in- fidel scientists who have fifty- different theories about the origin of life? If they should come. up in solid phalanx, all agreeing on one sentiment and one theory, perhaps Chrieltianity might be damaged; but there are not so many differences of opinion inside the Church as outside the Church, People used to say, "There are so Many different del nominations of Chris ians—that shoves e there is nothing in rel gion," I have to tell you that all denominations agree on the two othree or foUr radical -doctrines of the Christian religion. They are unanimous in regard to the divinity of the Scriptures. How is it on the other side? All split up; you cannot find two of them alike. Oh, it makes me sick to see these literary fops going along with a copy of Darwin under, one arm and a case of transfixed grasshoppers and butterflies under the other area, telling about the "survival of the fittest," and Huxley's protoplasm, and .the nebular hypothesis. The fact is, that some naturalists just as soor as they find out the difference betweenf the feelers of a wasp and the horns f a beetle, begin to patronage the mighty ; while Agassiz, glorious Ag siz, who never made any pretension to being a Chris- tian, puts both his feet on the doctrine of evolutioo, and says: •`I see that many of the naturalists of our day are adopting facts which do not bear obser- vation, or 4ave not passed under °beer- vablon." Time Men , warring against each other—Darwin wart -hitt against Lamarche, Wallace warring agairist Cope, even Herschel dfinouncing Fergu- son—they do not agree about anything. They do not agree about ernoryology, do not agree on the gradation of the spe- cies. What do tliey agsee on ? Herschel writes a wit9le chapter ion the errors of astronomy. La -Place, declares that the moon Was not put in the rig -lit place. He says that if it had i been pit four times further from the earth than it is now there would be More harmony in the universe; but Lionville comes up Just in time to prove that the moon was put in the right place. How many col- ors are woven into the light? Seven, Says Isaac Newton ; three, says David Brewster. How high in the Aurora Bor- ealis? Two and a half 'tones, says Lias; one hundred and sixty-eight Mile& says. *MARCH 301 1894. MA -r eriow xar 18 tire suit awn earth ? $eventy,six inillion a says Lacalle. Eightv-two million in says Humnoidt. Ninety million m eats Henderson. One hundred and million miles, says Mayer. Only a 1 difference of twenty-eigtit million in All , split up aiming themselves— agreeing On anything. Tiley come eay that the churches of Jesus Christ divided on the great doctrines. All u ed they are, in Jesus Christ, in the vinity of the Scriptures ; while t come up and propose to render t v.erdict, no two of them agree on verdict. "Gentlemen of tile jury, 11 you agreed on a verdict ?" asks court or the clerk of the jury as t come in after having spent the wi night in deliberating. the jury s "Yes, we have agreed," the verdict recorded ; but, suppose one of the jia men says, I think the man is guilty murder, •'and another says, "I think - was guilty of manslaughter in the rs oud degree," and another man says, think lie was guilty of assaule and t ry &ith intent to kill,"the judge wo say, "Go back to ybur room and br in a verdict; agree on something; t is no verdict." Here these infidel scientists have e paneled themselves as a jury to dee ads trial between Infidelity, the pla tiff, and Christianity, the defenda and after being out for centuries tl come to render their verdict. Gen men of thajury, have you agreed ou verdict? No, no. Then .go back anetle r five hundred years and delib iatet and agree on somethitsg. There lo a poor miserable wretch in Tombs court to -Morrow that could condemned by a jury that did not ag on the verdict, and yet you expect Us give up our glorious Christianity 'please these men who cannot agree anAYItil',1111Ingi yfriends, the Church of Jes Christ, instead of falling back, is on t advance. I ain certain it is on the a vance. 0, Lord God, take Thy swo from Thy thigh aud ride forth to v ictory. I am mightily encouraged bccause filid anione other things that while th uhristiauity has been bombarded f centuries, infidelity nes not destroy oue church, or crippled one minister, upeemed one verse of one chapter alt the Bible. The church all the tim geqing the victory, and the shot a seen es its °memos nearly eihausted, have been examining their admit:mid° ' letely • I have looked all through the earteelo-hexes. They have not in last 'twenty years advanced one ne idea. They have utterly exhauate their ammunition in the battle again the Church and against the Scripture while tile sword of the Lord Alinight is as keen as it ever was. We are ju getting our troops into line ; they a coming up in companies, and in reg menus, and in brigades, and you wil hear a shout after a while that will mak the earthquake, and the heavens riu Nvith Alleuia. It will be this: "Forwar the whole lines:" And then I find another most en couraging thought in tire fact that tit secular printing prees and pulpit seer harnessed in the same team for the pr ceenneion of the Gospel. Every Wa- etreet batilter te-mOrrow in New York every Suite street banker to -morrow Boston, every Third street. banker to morrow in Poiladelphia,,every banke in the United States, and every mei cliant will have in his rocket a treatis on Christianity, a call to repentance ten twenty or thirty passages of Scrip- ture iu the reports of sermons preached 'throughout these cities and throughout 'the land to day. It will be so in Chi- cago, so in New Orleans, so in Charles- iu Boston, so in Philadelphia, so vesv where. I know the tract societies et doing a grand and glorious work, 'but I tell you there is no power on earth • to -day equal to the fact that the Anaeri- ,' can printing press is taking up the Ser- mons which are .preached to a few hun- dred or a few thousand people, and On Monday morning and Monday evening, . in the morning and evening papers, scattering the truth to the millions. What a thought it is. What an en- couragement for every Christiau man. Besides that, have you noticed that during the past few days every one of the doctrines of the Bible came under discussion in the secular press—when every paper in the United States had an editorial on the subject : "is there such a thing as future punishme.et?" It was the strangest thing that thine should be a discussion in the secular papers on that subject, but -every paper in the United States and in Christendom dis- cussed: "Is there such a thing as retri- bution?" I know there were small wits 'L.-110 made sport of the discussion, but there was not an intelligent man on earth who, as the result of that discus- sion, did not ask himself the question ''What is g-oing . to he my eternal des- tiny ?" So it was in regard to Tyndall's prayer gauge. About twelve years ago yt u remember the secular papers dis- cussed that, and with just as much earnestness as the religious papers, and there was not a man in Christendom who did not ask himself the question, "Is there anything in prayer? May the creature impress the Creator." Oh, what a mignty fact, what a glorious fact, the secular printing press and the 'pulpit of the Church of Jesus Christ har- nessed in the same team. Then look at the International Series of Sunday School lessons. Do you know that, every Sabbath between three and five o'clock there are five inillion chile dren studying the same leepon, a lesson prepared by the leading minds of the couutry add printed in the papers, and these subjects are discussed and given i(onviceer to the teachers, who give them to over the children ; so that whereas —and- within our memory—the, children nibbled here and there at a stOry iu the Bible now they are taken 'through from Bible, to Revelation, -and we shall have fire million children 'forestalled for Christianity. My soul is ,frioullof exultation. I feel as if I could s t—I will shout!
