rMr. Johnston. The glory of God

Evangelist a Johnston ’s _ S e r m o n

Another lively topic was consid- ered by Evangelist I". W. Johnston last night in the Brighton Club Rooms when he took for his text the language found in 2 Cor. 5: 1-4, “For-we know that if 0.11!‘ earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved we have a house not made with hands eternal in the heavens." Mir. Johnston said that the usual interpretation plac- ed upon this text is that the earth- ly house spoken of here is our body and that when this earthly house is dissolved we shall get another one in heaven. But Paul was alive when he used this lan- guage and if it be true that the earthly house is the body, then it follows so said the evangelist that Paul had two bodies, the one he was li/ing in and another one in heaven than he was not living in, and that would prove that the one in Heaven that he was not living in would be a dead one. How absurd he said to believe such a thing.

The evangelist then pointed out that instead of the earthly house here referred to being the body, the house that is to be dLssolved is the earth; for this earth will ‘be dissolved according to 2 Peter ii: 10-13 so he read. ‘The heavenly house is the New Jerusalem he said; for that is the tabernacle that Christ went away to pre- pare. and in proving this he assoc- iated John 14:14 with Rev. 21:2 emphasizing the word "prepared" also Heb. 11:16 where the same word is used. This is the house he said that was not prepared with hands. ‘The evangelist then des- cribed the holy city in heaven and said the dimensions given con- cerning it proves it to be a real lit- oral city. He read in Rev. 21:18, 1'1 of its being 12000 furlongs in cir- cumference and with a wall 144 cubits in height. Its street of gold, its gates and all such said the evangeist prove it to be a‘ literal place. Paul naturally desired this place in preference to the present evil world and even though this world will be dissolved by the fires of thc latter days he was assured of another and more enduring habitation eternal in the heavens.

In further explanation of the tcxt in 2 Cor. 5:14 the evangelist spoke of the original garment of

glory that enshrouded, our first parents in Eden. Sin deprivcd Adam and Eve of this covering

and they discovered they were no longer clothed. Hence Paul in this text desired the restoration of this clothing and referred to the time in the future when at Christ's second coming which he said was the only time of reward as the time when he would receive im- mortality. Without that ‘immortal- ity man ls even now considered un- clothed. The artificial clothing one wears now is not the clothing that would have covered us hadl sin not entered our world, so said i

would have not only covered the human family but even nature it- sclf would have refectsd the same glory as it did in the beginning and which wou‘d have given to nature the fulness of life. This will be restored said Mr. Johnston and the works of nature will no more decay as it has since the in- troduction of sin.

In closing he emphasized the necessity of accepting Christ as the only means to bring about this re%ation. The gospel of Christ he said is the only panacea for all the ills of the world. On Wednesday night Mr. Johnston speaks of the "Origin of Christ- mas." “Was Christ born on the 25th of December?"

REV. BR. LEGATE,

The following is the text of an‘ instructive sermon on "The Delight of Books." preached by Rev. Dr. Legato at the evening service in St. James Presbyterian Church yester- day.

II Timothy IV, 13 — "The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, being with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments."

The scene is the infamous prison, the TiLlianum, on the Capitoline| Hill in Rome. In one of the sub- térranoan cells lies one who per- haps was the most distinguished prisoner those walls of ill-repute had ever confined, Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ, whose only crime had been the proclamati l of the Gospel of love. Grown old and spent in the service of his master, cut off from his friends, his vitality lower- ed by the rigours of prison ilisclp- llnc, and, so far as he can see, the prospect of death by execution not far off, he must have been a. down- cast and heart-sore man.

To his joy, however, he has re- ceived word that he is to have a; visit from his young friend Timo-l thy, who was, maybe, when all is said and done, the very dearest and most congenial friend left to him. And, so we see him now, he is writ-

' ing to Timothy in glad anticipation

of the visit. And in a post-script

i this is what he says. if we might

put it in our own way of speaking “By the way, Timothy, when the arrested me at ‘Irons, they would not let me bring any of my bel0ng-' inss with me. On your way through there ca'l at the home of our good friend Carpus, where you know I stayed, and there you will find some things of mine, my old overcoat, a few books_arrd certain manuscripts. Bring them all when you come. But if you should be over-loaded, leave the coat behind: but be sure to bring the books and especially-the manuscripts." I think that is one of the most adorable and most pathetic touches which we have in all Paul's exquisite letters. It was as much as to say “Though the

return they will reside in Somer- ville, Mass. Mrs. Reid is the daughter of Mrs. Warren Villett l of Hampton, P. E. 1.. and Mr. Reid is a native of Aberdeen, Scotland.

selective plan, and you will be ‘amazed at the double amount of de- light you will get in your reading.

One of the pleasantest plans, I think, in reading, is to follow the idea of the farmer and have as it were, a rotation of crops. This is, of course, the age of the novel above everything else. Today the novel has extended its scope in keeping with a widening world: it has ceased to be a mere entertain- ing tale, and the best class of novel gives the reader now excursions into ifmost every department of litera- ume. 1:. is well to remember, how- ever, that to conline ones reading to moves alone, or novels mainly, drugs the mind rather than stimu- lates it.

For pure recreation, good fiction, read with the virtue of moderation, and read so that the old novels will
