SAVE HIS PEOPLE

Sermon by Rev. Wm

THEIR SINS

Dobson, Pastor of the

First Methodist Church, Charlottetown.

The .Splritunl Nature of Christ's Office—The Vast- ness of Meaning in the Word Save—Sin is Unsound- ness" Jesus the Great Physician - We are Saved

by the Name of Jesus.

(lit-ported by The (iunrrlinn Stenographer.)

'I‘rxi: -And thou shalt. t-all Ills mime Josue, for He shall save "is people from tin-.lrsintt. Matt. I. til.

it. is somewhat remarkable that on the very threshold of this Gospel. we should find so definite a statement of the spirit- ual nature of Christ's office. Ifnlessl am vurymucb mistaken. St. Matthew has nowhere said anything so clear and comprehensive regarding the deliverance ta hewroughi by Christ for his people. “.\Inl thou shalt. call his name Jesus. for He shall save Ills people from their sins."

I want in the first plat-c to help you to we the vastness of meaning contained in this word save. In its etymology. it is a term of healing, and belongs really to the vm-abulary of the physician. It. had to do uliully with the physical nature of man. ll'ulan werencll, it. was to keep him \vcli,snvc him from becoming sick; if he wcre sick. it. was to restore him to health. nmkehim sound again. in olden times whennmnn was sound physically, the llomans called him sane. if he were sick they called him insane. When a(irrmnn they said he was gamut. when he was sick, \\':|.~ unwisunt. \thn we Amrle ,\un arr: well. we are sound, wlwnm-k arc deceased. To save. then. i~ In brim; luck the insane to sanity, tin- uusnund to soundness, the diseased in lit-.Ilth. This a Heavy dmnnn-l In nmkt' upon the word save when appliml onlon the physical man. Pre- hups we may \m- lilll-l mort- clearly by fully appreciating tho Informing of tho

word diseasa. It will help us to do this if we break the word up into its parts. Dis is a negative preﬁx. case the principal word. \Ve all know full wall whptcase means. It is enjoyment. quiet. comfort, _r’eat.relief,and the like. Now add the prefix dig, nndyou negativehll thtehb'. and have to supply their places by suchworde as anxiety, unquiet. anguishhpuinhngony, and such words. Disease is slnlpb’ hhe manifestation of constitutional trouble. The trouble may exist. in one or more functions of the constitution. but. where» ever it. is, disease is always its manifestat- ion. Easels the natural outcome of a normal constitution; disease. the mitcome of an abnormal constitution. Whether it he treated in its symptons as the homeopathic physicians do. or in its causesas the allopathic physicans. one thing is certain, that the cause must be removed before the disease will disappear and perfect rest and case be restored to the patient. To do this is to save from pain, from anguish. and to this extent you may call the physician a saviour. \Vc bftcn say in popular language, "The doctor Mll‘l‘vl w" from a severe attack of sickness." or "My thr- doctor's skill I am awed from death." .\'u\\' we are clear ’ths far. that. to save from disease is to bring hat-l: to soundness or health, no that the body Is free from pain, from tlls~ case. it is qullcpossiblc to carry ‘lillb thought. into wider fields. and say of a na- tion u hen its conscltution is corp-y min t it. in diseased, that. is. there is t. able. anxiety. friction. pain. It. w‘aa this thought that led the London Times. about. a month ago, to say that Wltto the Prime Minister of Russia, may yet; be the Saviourof the nation. I think it was Carlyela who said that. erabenu mlght have been the saviour of France before the revolution. He had sufficient ability and know enough, but. was sodebauched thnthc could not rise, to the amnion. So you see to save a nation is to restore harmony in its constitution so that udrent irritation and suffering may be removed. andpeace. rest and enjoyment be res torcd. Solf Christ into save his people from their sins, He multbo a Saviour whocan uniove the Muses of stnfulnees and restore to wholeness and health.

.sinful, accounts for the fearful unrest. lThis undue selﬁshness coupled with ambition. tome at. least, is sufficient to account for all the. unrest we find in this Western civilization; and if ths be true. mremove the disease by removing the causes lies far beyond the ability of state craft. Sin and selfishness can only be reached by One who can touch the deep- est depth of human nature. and restore man to his normal state, thus bringing him into harmony with himself amt his fellow—man. But leaving nations for the time. and dealing with ourown personal experience, how much unrest. how much disease we find. So wéarlcd with life that. it. bores us, chutes and frets us. and hangs heavily on our hands. The word pastime.us Trench in his book on the study of Words, has put it. “How solemn the testimony the word pastime compels the world. out of its own use of the ward. to render against. itself, obliging it. to ownthat its amusements and pleasures do not, really satisfy the mind, and fill it. with an abiding sense of satisfaction and joy. They are only pastime, they serve only. as the word confesses, to pass away the time. to prevent. it from hanging an intolerable burden on men's hands. All th'ey can do at the best is to prevent man from discovering and uttendinlr to their own internal poverty and dissatisfaction and want." Trench further says that the word diversion has sprung from the some source. “It means nothing more than that. which diverts or turns us aside from ourselves. and in this way helps us to target ourselves. for a little: and it would ‘ ppeur that. even according to the worlds' own confession all which It proposes is— not. to make 'us happy. but, a little to prevent us from remembering that we are unhnppy.f.o pass away our time. to divert. us from ourselves." This is cert- ainly a sad commentary on the origin of words. teaching us that the diseased suite of society has com pclicd us to create that which wtll pus away the time. and divert our attention from ourselves. It; is this diseased state, this restlessness and lack of peace that account for; a. hundred silly things that we are practis- lng to-day. I have more than a suspicion that the secret. of ninectcnths of the drunkenness has its origin in theirestless. diseased state of the soul; and rather than take time to look into ourselves. we hurry from place to place seeking peace

[BARGAINS IN I ‘. MEDICINE. A woman once wrote us that she was not oing to buy Scott’s Emulsron any more because it cost too ‘much. Said she could get some other emulsion for less mon . Penny wise and poun foolish. Scott’s Emul- sion costs more because it is worth more—costs more to make. We could - make Scott’s Emulsion cost less by using less oil.

and rest. By-and-by We bring up in the bar-room or in the social club where the liquor is. not at all with the intention of becoming drunkardn, but simply to pass away the time and divert our attention from our own troubles and anxieties; We soon become acclimated 19’ our surroundings. and while passing away] the time learn to love taste of liquor, and instead of it. producing ease and rest, another disease is contracted, and then— uh then! Iwas crossing in the “Minto” the other day. and from the time we left the outside buoy in Plctou Harbor till the whistle blew forge "Block house. four men sat. around the table in the saloon playing cards. At, the close of the play, Isalrl to one of the players, “You seem to enjoy card-playing very much." “No.” he said. “I do not like it so much. but. I play them simply to pass away the time." I suspect this explains much of the social card-playing in Charlottetown. If this be so, it, certainly is a and com- ment on the diseased state of society— ’l‘hc old Romans would call it, insane state of society. You rc tuber Loo how last. summer in our restlessness and feverishness. we used to try to pass away the time and divert our own and the attention of the city by spectacu- lar displays upon the street. \Ve would dou regulia. secure a brass band and close the parade by entering some church in ordertohave a clergyman pronounce a blessing upon our Sabbath desecration. Gard playing and dancing are bad enough

‘to pass away the time. but Sunday-

parading is even worse. The motive is irenerally display and advertising, but.

worse than all it is a deliberate violation

of the fourth commandment. What.-

ever may be true meaning of the fourth , commandmentdn all the churches in Char- lottetown, the children are taught. to “remember the,Sabbath any to keep it. holy'." and can you imagine anything more ludicrous limp a'Sabbarh School-teacher. touching his clues this commandment. and impressing it. upon them with all the authority of God, and then leaving the

class, donning his regulia and helping to _

set the whole town in an uproar with a' band and a parade that. is a clear violation of what. he taught an hour before in his class. Of course it. is fair to euyao arulethe men who swell the Sunday parades are not: often church workers; they are not. the men you can send to pray with the dying, nor depend upon for a spiritual uplift in the church. They are generally those who do notgo to church at all. or mere hangers on of the :church. Oh this pastime! \tht a and comment It is upon the diseased state of society. , We are perhaps now in a position to ace the mlghtly sweep of this word save. “Than shaltcall His name Jesus for He shall save His people." bring them back from unsoundness to soundness. from the abnormal to the normal so that they may have as rent. peace—peace u'lth themselves and peace with God. “Therefore being instilled by faith we have peace with (lod through our Lord Jesus Christ." 0r; attain. “Come unto me all ya that. labour and are heavy-laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me. forl am meek and lowly in heart. and ye shall find rest unto your souls, for my yoke is easy and my burden is light " Butthere is another phase of this sub-, ,ieot thatl want‘to discuss with you to—' night. Sin is unsoundness. sin is in-I (sanity. using these words In their etymological sense. Jesus Christ, is the great. Physician. who undertaken bore- conntl‘uut. our constitutions. so that. we may become sound and the disease as symptoms may disappear. ‘We can reaplly see the necessity of this work upon the part of Christ. our great. Phyal‘ clan. The standard set. up for you and me to live by is the first and greatest. commandment. "l‘hou shalt. love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and thy neighbor as thyself." This obligation rest- upon every man and every woman in Cnurlottetown. irrespective of creed or condition. It does not relive the obligation in the least to any "I make no profession of Clirletlanllylf That firsﬁ commandment. does not rest: upon your profession and mine. It lies in the es- sential nature of things and is enforcedby all the oughts of the univeroi. II a foreigner were to kill a map in Cu lotte- own. it. would avail him Mule '99 , a day of trial to plead that he was opt-n British subject. _ that he did not. profess tb observe British law.

who had power to cure with absolute certainty every dleeusedand crippled man Then every sick man would at once he- come responsible for not applying to the physician in order to fulfill the cOmmands of the government. If he refused to com; ply. his violation of the law would be his own fault. and no one would beresponaible but. himself. This is Just the case with Christ; the great. Physician, whom the government. of God has supplied. God knows that. we cannot. reach up to the demands of the moral. because we are sick and unsound. and He has sent. Christ His only begotten Son so that. He may create us anew, save us from our sins, and unsound. and He has sent. Christ. His only begotten Son so that lie may create us anew. save us from our sins, and enable us to love God with all our hearts and our neighbors as ourselves.

It is this restoring of men to health, this wholeness of constitution that some have called Entire Sunctlfioation. it was what Wesley meant, by hollnes. It Is by dealing thus with individuals through the ages that the world‘sdlsease. unrest. and Insanity arc to be removed. If these things be so, what a mighty sweep there is In the meaning of the word save. Think what. a salvation it, is for the world to be saved» from anarchy. socialism. and the crazq'x that exists for wealth in some country): to-tlaymnd this shall yet come to pace for the mouth of the Lord bath spoken it, “For He must reign till he linth'p‘t in enemies under Illa foals. rind destroyed the work of the devil." ,Af' ."

Nowlet. me say in cloning thd’t. this lfgltatlon. this unrest in yang, aha me, this four of dying, thle dread of Judgment. have their cause In the simple state of our nature. and if they are ever kilo-she. taken away. the cause must be “removed. the soul must be created anew in Christ. Jesus. and there in only one Physician who can do this. "There Is one name given under heaven or among men whereby we may be saved by the name of Jesus." and lie is able to save unto the interment. all that. come unto God by Him." ' Thou shalt. call Ills name Jesus, for He shall save ills people from their sins." ’13
