sane old water; but in our- century
it has_gone to running steam engines.

mean ixtord and seine Testa: I do
not think hat John Calvin:. believed,
as some say he did, in the damna-
tion of infants, although some of the
recent hot disputes Would seem to
imply that there :is such a thing as
the damnation of infants. .
We musti•• emember that good John
Calvin was a logician and a meta-
physician, a id by the proclivitie,s of
his nature put some things in an un-
fortunate *ay. Logic has its -use
and metaphysics has its use, but they
are not good at making creeds.
What .a thne we have had with the
dogmatics, the apologetics and the
heremeneu t ics. The defect in some
of the creeds is that they try to tell
Its tll about the decrees' of God.Novv
the only human being that was , ever
coiitpetent to handle eliat subject was
Pa 11, and he would not have been
co metent had he not been inspired.
I believe in the sovereignty of God
ald IL believe in man's free agert-
cY, but no one man can harmonize the
two. It is not necessary' that we
harmonize them. Every sermon that
rs have ever heard that attempted
such harmonization was to me as
clear as a 'London fog, .as clear as
mud. My 'brother of the nineteenth
century, give,us Paul's steeteMent
and leave out Your owu. Better one
chapter 'of Paul on ,that subject than
all of Calvin's institutes, able and
honest and Mighty as they are. Do
not try to measure either the throne
of God or the thunderbolts of God
with your little steel pen. What• do
you know about the decrees? You
cannot pry open the door of God's et-
ernal counsels. You cannot explain
the mysteries of God's government
now; much less the mysteries of his
government Ave hundred quintillion
years ago.
I move for a creed for all ourde-
nominations made Out of Scripture
quotations pure and simple. - That
would take the earth for God. That
would be impregnable against infidel-
ity and ApollVonic assault. That
would he beyond human criticism.
The •denomination, whatever -its 'name
be, -that ean rise up to that will be
the church •of the millennium,. will
swallow up all' other denominations
and be the one that will be the bride
when the Bridegroom cometb. Let
us make it simpler and plainer for
people to get into_ the kingdom. of
God.
But there are those who could aed
unto the tests rather than su.btract
from- them. There are thousands
who wOuld not accept persons into
church membership if they drink wine
or if they smoke. .cigars or if they
attend the theatre or if they play
cards or if they drive a fast herse.
But do, not substitute tests which the
Bible does not establish. There ie
one passage of Scripture wide enough
to let.all in who ought to enter mid
to keep out all who, ought to be kept
out,."Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ
and thou shalt be saved." Get a
man's' heart right, and his life mill
be right. ,
Again, th re are Christians who
are under se ulchral shadows and
fears and hoj pled by doubts and fears
and sins long ago repented of. What
they need is to understand the liber-
ty of the sm s -of God. 'hey' spend
more time u tder the sliadoevof Sin-
ai than at t te base of Calv ry.
-What mane of you Christit ns most
need is to g t your graved thes off.
I rejoice, tha you have, heen brought
front the de th of sin to the life of
the gospel, but, you need to get your
hand loose, and your feet loose,and
your tongue loose, and your sOtil
loose. There is no sin that the Bible
so arraigns and punctures and flagel-
lates as the sin of unbelief, and that
is what is the matter with you.

by fear of death. My brothers and
sisters, if we made full. use , of our
religion we would_ soon get ver this.
0003 of our- first realizatio s in get-
ting out of this world, 1 think,, will
be tha in -this world we v. ere very
much pent up and had cramped
apartments and were -kept on the
limits. The most, even of ur small
lvorld, is water, and the w' ter says
Lo th human race, "Don't come
here r you will drown," A few
thousand feet up in the atmosphere
is uninhabitable-, and the attnosphere
says to the human race, "DOn't come
up here or you cannot breathe." A
few miles down the earth is a fur-
nace of fire, and the fire say, "Don't
come here -or you will burn." The
caverns of the mountains -are full of
poisonous gases, and the gases say,
"Dohiti come here or you Will be
asphyMated.!' And, crossing a track,
you must. look out or you will be
crushed. And, standing by a. steam
boiler, you must look out or you will
be blown up: And pneumonias and
pleurisies and consumption aad apo-
plexies go acroFs this earth in flocks,
in droVes, in herds, and it is a world
of equinoxes and cyclones and graves.
Yet we are under the delusion that
it is the only lit place to stay ' in.
We nowt to'stick to the wet plank in
midocean while the great ship, the
City of God, of tbe Celestial line,
goes sailing past and would gladly
take us up in a lifeboat. My Christian
friends'. - let me tear off your de-
spondencies a.nd frights about disso-
lution. My Lord commands me re-
garding you, saying, "Loose him,
1 and let him go!" .
1 Heaven is 90 per cent. better t an
this world, a thousand per cent. et -
ter, a million per. cent. better. ke
the gladdest, brightest, -most jubil nt
days you ever had on earth and e in -
press them all into one. hour, nd
that hour would be a requiem, a ast
day, a gloom, a horror, as comp red
with the poorest hour they have ad
in heaven since its first tower . vas
huile or its first gates swung or its
first i song caroled. "Oh," you ay,
"that may be true, but I am - so
afraid of crossing over from this
world to the 'next. and I fear the
snapping of the cord between soul
and body." Well, all the surgeons
arid scientists declare that there is no
pang at the parting of the body and
soul,. and all the restlessness at the
closine: hour of life is involuntary
hind no distress at all. The cage of
the. body has a door on easy hinges.
and, when that d' or of the physical
• i"
cage opens the s til simply puts out
its wings and so rs. .
"But," you say., "I fear to go be-
ery," Well. Taw 11 tell you how do
I
&use the future s so full of mys-
ttreat the mysteries. The mysteries
'have ceased bothering me, for I de
as-. the judges of your courts often do.
They hear all the arguments in the
case and they say,' "I will take-the.se
papers and give you my decision next
week." So I have beard all the argu-
ments in regard -to the next world,
and some things are pncertain ,and
full' of mystery, and so I fold up the,
P-1' s and reserve until the next
world my decision-. about them. 1
.can there study all the mysteries to
better advantage, for the light will
he better arts1 iny faculties stronger,
and I will ask the Christian philoso-
phers, who have had all the advant-
ages of heaven, for centuries, to help
'me, and I may be permitted myself
humbly to ask the Lord, and I think
there will be only one filystery left;
that will be one so unworthy as my-
self got into such an enraptured
place. Come up out of the sepulchral
shadows. If you are not Christians
by faith in Christ, come up into the
light; and if you are already like
Lazarus, reanimated, but still have
your grave clothes on, get rid of
them.' The command is, "Loose him,
and let him go."

On the labor question he has this to
say in AinSlee's:
The labor leeislation in New
Zealand is in some of its provisions
the most enlightem d in the ;world.
There is no eight heur law, but the
eight hour day is gener U. as a eus-

labor, succeeded. in. indacing parlia-
ment in 1894, to pass the bill which
he had prepared., New Zealand was
still sore from the shock of a terri-
ble strike in 1890 and w •s tremb-

Dr. Weir then collected the pollen

and after fifteen minutes found that
his pulse beat faster and there was a
