palace of the universe, throngli' the first
story, .tb?bjgh the second story, through
the thil•d stbbry, through the twentieth story,
through the,hundt•edth story, through the
thousandth story, and realizing that Gocl is
, the,architect and carpenter and mason of all
that upheaved,splendor, he cries out in the
words of the text ;'"It is He that buildeth
His stories in the heavens." ,
My hearers, it is time that .we widened
out and heightened our religious thoughts.
In our -;;pulpits and Sabbath classes and
Christian work at all sorts we ring the
changes on a few verses of Scripture until
they excite no interest. IVjany of the best
parts of the Bible have never .yet been
'preached from -or indeed even noticed.
Hence .I to -day begin a series of sermons,'
not for consecutive Sabbath mornings, but
as often as 1 think best for variety's sake,
on the astronomy of the Bible or God
among the Stars, the Geology of the Bible
or God among the Rocks, the Ornithology
ot the Bible or God among the Birds, the
Ichthyology of the Bible or God among the'
'Fishes, the Pomology of the Bible.or God
among the Orchards, the Precious Stonesrof
the Bible or, God among the Amethysts,the
.Conchology of the Bible or God among the.
Sheila, the Botany of the Bible or' God
among the Flowers, the Chronology of the
Bible or God arnong the Centuries. The
fist is that we have all spent too much time -
on one story of the great mansion of God's
universe. We need occasionally to go up-
stairs or downstairs in this mansion down-
stairs
stairs and in the cellar study the rocks, or
upstairs and see God in some of the higher
stories, and learn the meaning of the text
when it says : "1t is Ho that buildeth His
stories in the heaven."
Astronomy was born in Chaldea, Its
mother was Astrology, or the science of
foretelling events by juxtaposition gf stars.
The Orients, living much out of doors and
in a vary clear atmosphere, through which
the stars shone especially lustrous, got the
habit of studying the night heavens. ' In
the hot seasons caravans journeyed chiefly
at night, and that gave travellers much op-
portunity of stellar information. On the
first page of the Bible the sun and moon
and stars roll in. The sun, a body nearly
three million miles in circumference and
more than twelve thousandetimes as large
as our earth ; the moon, more than two
thousand miles in ,diameter. But God is
used to doing things on such an omnipotent
scale that he takes only one verse to tell of
this stellar and lunar•. manufacture. Yea,
in three words all- the other words are
thrown in. The record says, "Tho stars
also!" It takes whole pages for a man to
extol the making of a teleseepe or micro-
scope or a magnetic telegraph or a thrashing
,machine, or to describe a fine painting or
statue, but it was so easy for God to hang
the celestial upholstery that the story is
compassed in one verse : •God made two
great lights,. the greater light to rule the
day and the lesser, light to rule the night.
"The stars also 1" Astronomers have been
trying to call the roll of them ever since,
and they have counted -multitudes of them
passing in review before the observatories
built at vast expense, and the size and
number of those heavenly bodies have tax-
ed to the utmost the scientists of • all ages.
But God finishes all He has to say about
them in three words, "The stars also 1'"
That is Mars, with its more than fifty-five
million' square miles, and Venus, with its
more than 191 million square mile and
Saturn, with its more than nineteen' mil-
lion square miles, and Jupiter, with its
more than twenty-four billion square miles,
and all the planets of our systemof more
than seventy-eight billion squire Mlles, and
;these stars of our system, when compared -
with the stars of the other systems, as a
handful of sand compared with all the
Rocky Mountains and all the Alps. "The
stars also 1" For brevity, for ponderosity,
for splendor, for suggestiveness, for sub-
limity piled on'sublimity, these words excel'
all that human speech ever uttered or
human imagination ever soared after. "The
stars also 1" It is put in as you write a
postscript -something you thought of after-
wards -as hardly worth putting into the
body of a letter. "The stars also 1"
Read, on in.erour Bibles, and after awhile
the Bible flashes with the Aurora Borealis
or Northern Lights, that strange illumina-
tion, as mysterious and undefined now as
when in the book of Job it was written :
"Men see not the bright light which is in
the clouds. Fair weather cometh out of
the North." While all the nations sup-
posed that the earth was built on a founda-
tion of some sort, and many supposed that
it stood on a huge turtle, or some great
marine armature, Job knew enough' of
astronomy to say it had no foundation but
was suspended on the invisible- arm of the
Almighty, deolalting that` "He hangeth the
earth upon nothing." While all nations
thought the earth was level, the sky spread
over it like a tent over a fat surface, Isaiah
declared the world to be globular, circular,
saying of God : "He sitteth upon the circle
of the earth." See -them glitter in the
scriptual sky -Arcturus, Orion, the
Pleiades, and the "Bear with her young."
While running your fingers among the
leaves of your Bible with the astronomical
thought in your mind, you see two worlds
stop -the sun and the moon. But what
does that Christian know about that miracle
who does not understand something of
those two luminaries? Unless you watch
modern astronomy, put those two worlds in
its steelyards and weigh them, you are as
ignorant as a hottentot ttoot the stupen-
doubtless of that Beene in We life of Joshua.
The sun over three hundred thousand times
as heavy as our earth and going thousands
of miles the hour. Think of stopping that
and starting it again without the ship-
wreck of the universe ! But 1 can easily
believe it. What confounds me ill not that
He could stop and start again those two
worlds in Joshua's time, but that He could
have made the wheel of worlds of whioh the
sun and moon are only coge/ and keep that
wheel rolling for thousands of yeart--the

whole system with all the other systems

Millions and millions, billions and billions,
trillions and trillions, quadrillions and
quadrillions."
But what gladdens me, and at the same
time overwhelms me, is that those worlds
are inhabited. The Bible says so, and what
a small idea you must have of God and his
dominion if you think it only extends across
the chip of a world which you' and I`
now inhabit. Have • you/. taken this idea.
ok all the other worlds being inhabited
as human guesswork ? Read Isaiah, 45th
chapter, ISt-h verse : "Thus smith the
Lord that created the heavens, God him-
self that formed the earth, and made it ;
He hath established it, He creilted it not
in vain, He formed it to be inhabited."
Now, it he inhabited the earth so that it
would not be created in vain, would he
make worlds hundreds and thousands of
tunes larger and not have them inhabited.
Speaking of the inhabitants of this world,
g
He says : "The nations are as the drop of a
bucket." If all the inhabitants of this
world are as a drop of a bucket, where are
the other drops of a bucket? Again and
again the Bible speaks of the host of
heaven, and the word "host" means living
creatures, not mere masses, and the expres-
sion ['hosts of heaven" must .mean inhabi-
tants of other worlds.
Without any telescope and without any
observatory -and without any astronomical
calculations, I know that the other worlds
are inhabited, because my Bible and my
common sense tell me so. It has been inti-
mated that m the worlds belonging to
our solar system there is rooin for at least
twenty-five trillion of population. And I
believe it is all_occupied or will be occupied
by inteligent beings. God will not fill
them with brutes. He would cer=tainly put
into• these, worlds beings intelligent enough
to appreciate the architecture, the colormg,
the grandeqr, the beauty, the harmony of
their surroundings. Yea, the inhabitants
of these worlds have capacity of locoqmotion
like ours, for they would not have hat't)such
spacious opportunity for movement if they
had not powers of motion. Yea, they have
sight, else why' the light ; and hearing, else._
how get on with necessary language and
':how clear themselves from Advancing
perils. Yea, as God made our human race
in His own Image He probably made the
inhabitants of other worlds in His own im-
age; in other words,it is as near demon-
stration as -care to have it, that while the
inhabitauts Of' other worlds have adapta-
tions of bodily structure to the particular
climate in which they. dwell, there is yet
similarity of .mental and spiritual charac-
teristics among all the inhabitants of the
universe of God, and made in His image
they are made wonderfully alike
Now, what would be the practical result
of this discussion founded on Scripture and
common-sense? It is first of all to enlarge
our ideas of God, and so intensify our ad-'
miration and worship: Under such consider-
ation, how inuejt more graphic the Bible
question which seems to roll back the
sleeve of the Almighty, and say: "Haat
thou an arm like God ?" The contempla-
"tien also *mirages .us with the thought
that if -God made all these worlds and popu-
lated them, it will not be very much of an
undertaking for Him to makeit our little
world 'over again, and reconstruct the
character of its population as by grace they
are to be reconstructed.
What a monstreityof ignorance that the
majority of Christian people listen not to
the voices of other worlds, although the
Book says, "The heavens declare the glory
of God," and, again, "The works of the
Lord are great and to be sought out."
How much have you siusllt them out?
You have been satisfyiug yourself with
some things about Christ, but have you
notined that Paul calls you to consider
Christ as the Creator of other worlds, "by
Whom also He matte the World's." It is
tiine you Christians start on a world hunt.
That is the chief reason why God makes
the night, fiat you may see other worlds.
Go out to -night and look up at the great
clock of the heavens. Listen to
the silvery chime of the midnight
sky. See tiiatyourchildren and grandchild-
ren mount the heavens with telescope for
alpenstock, leaping from acclivity of light
to acclivity of light. Thank God that we
now,know where our own world is, bounded
on all sides by realms of glory instead of
being where Hesiod in his poetry described
it to be, namely, half way between -Heaven
and hell, an anvil, hurled out of Heaven,
taking ten days to strike the earth, and
hurled out of earth taking ten more days to
strike perdition.
From the high heaven a brazen anvil east,
Nine days and nights in rapid whirls would last ;
And reach the earth the tenth; whence strongly
burled,
The same the passage to th' infernal world.
I thank God that we have found out that
our world 'lei not half -way betweeb heaven
and bell, bub is in a sisterhood of light, and
that this sisterhood joins all the other
sisterhoods of the worlds, moving round
some good homestead, whioh ie no doubt
Heaven, where God is, and our departed
Christian friends are, and we , ourselves
through pardoning mercy expect to become,
permanent residents. ,,
