One Safe Refuge. '1 Saill further, I learn from this subj the danger of false refuges. As soon these Shechemites got into the temple th thottfi ght they were safe. They said; "Bern wil take care of us. Abirneleeh may b- t or lown everythin else. Hecannot Wt- - ter 41oivn this tem le where we are now hide" But very soo they heard thettim- IserS crackling, and they were smothered with smoke, and t ey miserably die' . I suppose every perso in this audi0008l this moment is steppin into some kin of refuge. Here you tep in the tow r of good works. You ay, PI shall be safe in this refuge." The attlements are adore - ed, the: steps are v rnished, on the wall are pictures of all t e suffering you have alleeliated, and all t e tchools you haVe es- ta.bllshed, and all the floe things you have ever done. Up in t at tower you feel you are slate. But heani you not the tran)p of youre ! li unpardoned Si s all around the tow- er? They each hay a match. You are kind ing the comba table material.

But there is an Abimelech ath ruth ess assault coming on.
