PRACTICAL SURVEY,
Topic, -The cost and rewards of
Christian service:
I. Man esneible of his need.
H. Destitute of true riches.
IILA warning to others.
1. Man sensible of. his need. The
rich young ruler was an inquirer after
the most momentous matter that can
engage the attention of man. To
come to Jesus was a noble, manly act.
Here was a young man with his life
before him, with a soul not yet stain-
ed by the evil which is in the world,
standing in the presence of him who
knew what human life might include,
and what the soul is worth, and who
could tell him luaw to enlarge the otie
end ennoble the other, and who toolt
a tender, loYitig interest in him,
There was something noble and true
in that life, struggling in the imper-
teat light of rabbinic teaching after
eternity and heaven, and feeling that
111 all its struggles some element was
wanting. • Neither his wealth nor his
position completea his life. His was
a. noble dissatisfaction auct it noble
desire. He had a thirst for truth
and a reverence for goodness. He
was alive to the needs of
his soul. He felt the pare -
mount importance of eternal life, He
believed that the character of the pre-
sent life determines the future life. He
bellevesethat obedience to God was
the first principle of righteousness.
He had faith that Jesus would show
him the way of life. He was not•
lacking in right desires, moral charac-
ter, earnestness, reverence, humility,
tender spirit, and yet orthodox beliet.
The very attraotiveness of this unre-
deemed soul made Jesus keenly -desir-
ous, to redeem it, and he would not
deceive him as to the cost of disciple-
ship, but ,would declare plainly its
eonditions.
II. Destitute of true rithes. In the
heart of the seeker aftee true wisdom
there was a sore conflict. The great
Teacher brought betore him the fact
that .he was the Divine Master and
. laid his claims upon him. He Wight
aim that if a man Is to enter the
kingdom of God, he must maeo that
first and supreme. His character
was recitoned according to Its defects
to the exclusion of its excellencies,
Ilis question had been, "What shall I
tie?" and tho ainnyet wee, "Be free."
Here was the crisis of his career. Part
of his sorrow was the diseevery which
lietwas making of nis own heart, of
his guilty besitatitteand inexcusable
Weakness, and his real •slavery. In
that one InterVietv with Jesus he saw
the world's power over him, and
while he yielded to it he loathed it.
To him the words ut Sesus would
have applied, "I counsel thee to buy
of Inc gold triee in the fire, that thou
mayest be ride; and white raiment,
that thou mayest be clothed" (Rev. 3;
18).
111. A. warning to others. The young
ruler was a sad example of one who
weat far towards happiness and Yet
fell short of it. So impressive a scone
as this needed sonie explanation and
W3 s well suited to be the basis of
important teaching. The disciples
were to learn front Ineklent that mor-
al uprightness was a different thing
from gospel piety. It was not merely
World-surreinier, but self -surrender,
that Jesus required. The great les-
son for theta was to live for the Md.
for the inner and spiritual World.
They were to rest assured that every
saint will receive what is essential to
happiness, usefulness and spiritual
advancement, Mid will be rewarded
aceording to his charaeter and work.

reached Castel, attacking on the

French line. Sergeant Mouren, com-
manding another tank, noticing a
German field battery retreating, fol-
