CHRIST.

(Digest of a sermon preached before the University of Toronto, on Janu- Hrl' 17. 1909, by Rev. Canon Cody, Ilector"of St. Paul's Church, Toron- to.)

TCH.-St. Matthew xii: 30 “I-le

.‘ that is not with me is against me."

These words have a harsh nn)

|crabbed sound, and seem scarcely cougruous with the utterance of One whose character we regard ss perfect, BU “NY NRIIY “Press an element which shou-ld exist in every full-Urb- ed m9- TIWFB !1l\lSt be great hatreds BS Well BS Heat udmirations. There i must be the possibility of rightful mom! indignation as well as the broad tolerance of tender sympathy,

Our Lord had wrought a threefold

lunatic. The Pharasaic critics, unable ,gto dispute one reality or ins deed, iS0“Kh_¢ £0 discredit Jesus. and chargf ed Him with being in league with the_ devil. With indignant scorn Christ tore this inslnuation to tat- ters. He demonstrated its absurdity on the ground' that disunion is al- ways fatal to kingdoms, cities and houses. He retorted the acciisatton on his assailants-"What, of your Jewish exorcists?" It could be only by the Spirit of God that he' had expelled the demands. Therefore the Kingdom of God in His person had

adds the solemn' warning “He that is not with Me is ‘against Me." In this obvious condict between Christ and Satan the-re could be no neutral ground. The accusation against Jesus argued a blurred conception c/ii the difference between righb and wrong, between the powers of good and of efvil. There can be only words of condemmnation for those who recognize Christ’s claims, and yet from prudential considerations or moral reluctance stand neutral. Such persons are like the class at which Solon aimed his‘fmmous enactnirnt' in the dafys of Athenian civil strife. Those who, whenever a tumult arose, cautiouiiiy held aloof until they saw which faction prevailed, were on the restoration of pcace to he punished as rebels.

This utterance of high intolerance

must he viewed as the complement of Ch'riiit’s charter of tolerntion in the words, “He that is not against us is on our- -part." They are Christ’s re- i.u.ke of John’s confessed att tude to one who did not belong to their band. “We saw one rusting out demons in Thy name and ws‘ forbade lilm, because he followed not with us," The grievance is naively ad- mitted so be personal. For their own _honor they were jealous. “Try not to stop him," the Master re-plies, "for there is no man who shall do a mighty work in My name and be able soon to speak evil of me." Then follows the enunciation of the far- reaching principle: “He that is not against/ us isi for us." This' is the tolerance of Christ, and this prohibi- tion “forbid him not" ought long ago to have sounded the death knell of religious bigotry, intolerance and persecution. Christ Himself con-3 stantly exemplified the highest form of tolerance towards persons and en- couraged this virtue in His dis- cifples.

As a matter of fact each of these

great sayings completes the other Whenever anyone is working in the sa-me direction as Christ and His disciples, that is, in the direction of the spiritual betterment of the race, there is a case for the'application of tolerance. But this principle of tol- erance needs limitation by the prin- ciple of intolerance, lent it degenerate into lazy indifference. "He that is not 'against us is for us," if viewed in isolation' and -as s. complete state. ment, would almost dissolve the Christian society and obliterate dis- tinctons in faith and life whose loss would' be a fatal calamity. “He that is no't with Me is against Me," if standing alone and- unrelated, \v.wiii.l narrow our sympathies and letter the- free dpveilopment of life. Both sayings are needful if we would be helped by

either.

- The intolerance of Jesus is more rarely thought of than His broad sympathy and genial toleration; but lt is an equally- real note of His chanactier. A lofty intolerance of evil is part of perfect moral beauty. The Gospel can not look on' sin with easy indifference. A cold and hard intolerance which neither loves nor undersands is iali-en from Christ's spirit. The mere lapse od years, with the tale of our failures and' suf- ferings make us less rigorous in judgment. We learn how great is the grace of charity, and how much allowance must be made for those of whosc real lives we know so little. But after all deductions are made on account of the hidden "one fact more" there is a strain of noble moral intolerance in all great char- ‘ actors; there are occasions where it must: be yes or no and where com- promise must be treason. This high intolerance of evil is not the foe of sympathy or broadest culture, but the necessary base on which to stand ‘ if ‘we are ever to uplift the world.

'In the Old Testament we have the

anticipation of this intolerance in Jehovah's claim to be God alone. this exclusiveness com-pels the human race to learn the most important of all lessons-that there is one only living and true God.. This is the rusupposition of all elevating re- ligion, of all scientific investigation and of all morality which rises above caste arid' convention. ln the New Testament Christ shows a heart of infinite tenderness and widest- sym- pathy, but He could- equally be,when occasion required, rvplendidly inflex- 'fble and rightieously intolerant. His

attitude toward hypocrisy. Indigtu- tion and . stern denunciation greet this sin of falsehood within, because it presents a bar ~to the entrance of all truth. Agaiii, lnhumnnity caus- ed His righteous wrath to blaze with a heat which remained an awe-inapir- ing miemory in the Apostolic Church. Anof/her phase of this intolerance .is seen in these stupendous claims which l-lie makes for Himself. He stands alone to be worshiped and adored. The ancient Pantheons could always admit another god; but the meek and lowly Jesus stands in .isolated splen- dour and will not shura his claims. The same glorfous intolefallw IIIBKBB

hearts I-le will be King of our lives. He cannot share His right ful throne in us with any other clai- mant. ' This intolerance of Jesus is hasod

on His perfect knowledge and His Perfect love. We must hide sin because He perfectly unders: -:is its ¢h5¥`lDS» its daily influence, its fatal issue. He saw gin's horrible ravagcsi in the human nature which He had, wsulned and was seeking to rid-.~em.| and He loathed it with His whole soul. There is an intolerance which is based on .ignorance and narrow Sympathy, but there is also an in- tolerance wh!ch'is based on fuller un- dersta/nd'lng. And such was Christ's

this attitude was His love. Love can hear all things, except thu harm of the beloved. Just because Christ: identiried Himself with' the race. and

must with stern and passionate pro- test make wnr wpon the sin* that is slaying tho ohiects of His love.Cibrist is intolerant of sin because He la love. He is terrible -against it be- cause' He is so tender.

There are three lessons we may

well lay to heart. l. Cultivate n spirit of true tolir

ration nnwirrd all' who are striving to maike the world better. bet us not seek to forbid them because they fol- fow not in all things with us.

2. Oultivate a healthy intolerince

of sin, side by side with love' fo' the sinner. Right wrath against evil is no Tess noble than deep love for this good. It is a lamentahle sign of the times that we are largely incapable of righteous anger. Bad men do not rouse cur indignahidn un- less they interfere with our personal comfort. »In the presence of colossal ills from.which others suffer, we re main unnloved. Indifference to 'evil doing is a sure sign of moral and spiritual deterioration. lt is pos- .-sible to- be angry and sin not but this anger must be like Christ’s ar.|jer. l‘t must not have its roots in selfishness, it must not be mere zeal for personal honour, it must spring from the vindication! of truth and purity and glory ol Christ. Today we sorely need an enlarged capacity for moral indigna- tion. The ntmosphero of society and of the whole land would he cleared and purified by the blaze of righteous ‘anger. The New Testa- ment indulges in no sickly sentiment or flabby thinking on moral issues. It recognizes that there is a differ- ence between right and wrong, and it commands that this difference bc observed. . Only so, can life 'oe strong and true. Let ns never lose the capacity of being shocked by sin| The safe course is to hate in. It is the rightful object of a Chriutinn’s wrabh. _

3. Let: there be no neutrality in the

great spiritual struggle. In every age there are some causes which are God's and we dare not stand apart and refuse no take sides. There are times in our own lives when mental exercises and explanations should give place to moral verdicts. _ Wie should think to an issue. Life must not bn wholly spent as ai Royal Commission which never reports. Christwltili His claims and His chnractier stands before ns; and apart from all the intellectual delight of investigating His claims, He risks our moral verdict. He presses us to choose our moral leader. Perpetual neutrality here is antagonism. Not to choose I-lim is to reject Him not to be with him is to reject him Gnmaliel fell out cuts a. rurry finger matters fell out, cuts a» sorry figure basl-ds the apostles who rejoiced that they were counted _worthy to suffer

It seems that on entering tho !ii-r-

of the Russian Secret Service.

On the table before them was his

own precious paper containing the formula for the preparation of the

wonderful gas. '

With one hound, and' ri crashing

blow, delivered with tho full force of his weight, Sinclair hard' felled the Russia/n to the ground, and with a' hiss of rage turned to the startled

girl.

“Give me the paper-spy!" he snarl-

ed, his love suddenly turned- to hate.

"Never, you English dog," sha

screamed, "you’ve killed' my Ivan," and turning to the tire she buried the papor deep among the glowing coals

before Sinclair could stop her.

The whole incident, the treachery

of her whom he loved and her final words, "You’ve killed my Ivan," came suddenly home to Sinclair ns he realised their full imporrt. Ellie had used her pretended love slmiply ns a

lure to learn his secrets.

He staggered 'to the door and fell

into the arms of a servant who had hurried to the library on hearing

concluded. "They got Mr. Sinclair home, and for weeks he hovered he- twcen life and death with brain favor.
