Large Congre ations at the First Metho-
, dist. Church esterday. Able and Force- iul Sermons Delivered by Rev. William
Barraclough, M.A
The services marking the re-opcn-
ing of the First Methodist Church to public worship were continued in that church yesterday. There were large congregations morning and even. ing and the singing and music were 'Q n high order_ Rev. Wm. Barraclough, M. A., of St. John, N, B., was thc preacher at both services. The sub- ject of the morning sermon was "Moet for the Master’s ‘use,”. thc text beliig taken from Timothy ll, 21: if a man therefore Purge him- self from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor sanctified, and meet for the Mas.ter's use and' prepared unto every good work.” it was a thought- ful and well delivered discourse.
Mr. Barraclqugh’s evening sermon
dealt.. with the war and the text was from Isaiah 2: 4--"it shall come to pass in the last days . . . . he shall Judge among the .nations and shall rebuke many people; and they shall beat their swords into plough- shares and their spears into pruning- hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more_"
Men have for centuries been
looking to the time when war would be a thing of the past, said the speak-I er. At the period of this prophecy, and long before it was the dream of the prophets who had expressed the ye-arnings of the people. The golden age was to be the age when none dare molest or make afraid. The horror of war has for ,ions DSFIOUS huns 113 a dark storm cloud over the nations., The prodigal wastefulness of war,, the terrible flendishness the utter, foolishness of`war as a method of; settling national differences is recog- nized_
War has never settled anything.
You may knock a man down but you
do not thus convince him or answer,
his arguments. Reason is impotent where passion holds sway. in Slilia of the truth of' all I have said, men and nations still continue their age' long strife. what are the elements which produce war?

'flict are equally responsible. The Scriptures have encouraged the hope that some day wars would cease. This was to be looked for .at_the end of/le 886. i_‘In the last days” prefaccs more than one prophecy. This is expanded, by some, to include the co- ming of Christ a second time to this earth. _An occasion which is to be preceded by the bloodiest of wars. A contest in which all nations are to be engaged and which is to end with Ar rnageddon, the great and final battle of "God Almighty.”
Tile prophetic references in Mat-
thew, 24, and others which follow in the New Testament have suggested
‘this thought: For ages the Christian faithful have been looking for His co- fnlllll- Age after age the ga-thering of the nations in combat has filled men with expectation_ If so in the past doubly so.today, for surely no greater struggle was everwitnessed. i have held to the idea that the se- cond comiug of Christ was to be ap- plied individually rather than gener- ally to His church. Will this wal make future wars impossible? Will this be the last war? Who can tell? Certain things will grow out of this war we firmly believe_ Certain things must grow out of this war if the ques tion is to be answered in the affirina tive. In the words of Robert Blatch ford: “This time Europe must pul an end to the hope of kings or kaiseri to win, by force- of an armed nation of robber bullies, the dom ination of the world_” Il-f ‘this is not done, yor may depend upon it, this will not be the last war. Here the preacher gave 9. synopsis of Robert Blatch- lford’s "startling articles on Germany and England," published in a London paper before the beginning of the war Mr. Blatchford presented three ways by which peace might be maintained; -lst by universal disarmament, which the author himself dimissed as lm- practlcable. 2nd a federation of the nations, which the author declared impossible so long as one nation per sisted in working out its own destiny by methods of blood and iron 3rd.
ifreparcancst. “ri ‘nils"`i5it," "`t'tm
the preacher is all that we have tc hopeyfor, then this will not be the last war.’ `
“Why," continued the preacher
"should not this war usher in a nov era of mutual understanding, whic' shall succeed the long centuries of hp fred and distrust and misunderstand ing. Why not a new spirit among the nations the Spirit of Christ of un selfishness opposed to greed, of self sacrifice opposed to ambition. This new spirit must become the spirit o’ the nations or this will not be the last war_ This was the purpose o' His coming, to bring harmony and concord and good will. The mlssior of the church is not yet accomplished and will not be accomplished until this spirit is diffused among the na tions. The only agency at hand is the Christian _church. It must con- tinue the task of overcoming selfish ness, and bitterness and hate. The programme may be revised as to me thod but it is the same which Christ committed to His disciples at the be- ginning Whe'n shall it end this con- flict against sin and selfishness? When will universal peace be ushercti in? Only God knows_ In the mean time what is. the duty of the church? To continue the campaign. Heathen lands must_be e\ucated' and evange- llzod else we will have another and worse war. Do not make any mis take. In Japan and China and India are all the elements which will repro- duce this war on a largerlscale_
Do not flatter yourself that the Eu-
ropean nations can then control the alien hosts, drilled and armed for war. There is one thing only, and that is to sow the seeds of amity and universal brotherhood. -To proclaim the glad good -news of the gospel of Jesus Christ, to secure its accep- tance not in theory but in practice. The Christian missionaries in the pro- vinces of Japan, the heralds of peace on the hills of China and the plains of India Ere the best guarantee of world peace.
Perhaps we had better begin at
home by sinking our differences as Christians and endeavoring to correct the Social tlnjustlce of the axe. WIIIIG we point men to a better way of
personal livlng_ I marvel at theuin difference of many who should he a ve to the demands of this age

“lt is true there are tariffs," suitl
the Premier, “but during the pas; de- cade we have manifested out neigh- borly spirit by purchasing your pro- zlucts to the extent of $300,000,000. l should also add that we paid for Lhem; and as a final proof' of our frientlsliip wc have recently borrowed from you $125,000,000 of the sum, thus paid.

development of that opinion' must rest the hopes of those who look for a world tribunal backed, when neces- sary, by world-wlde forces for the rc- stralnt of an outlaw nation. Many voices admonish us that all this is itltealistlc and visionary, that thc standards, conceptions, and .purposes of our present civilization forbid the reallzation of any such ideal that the-re must be the death of this era. and the birth of a new era " before humanity shall attain' to so much self-mastery. All conjecture is idlt- but to .mc it is certain as my own cxporicnce, that mode-rn civilization will ultimately disintegrate and per- ish, if it fails to achieve this idea.

One peculiar trait c-f their nation
is its faculty of self-criticism during times' of stress. This criticism, thesc internal disagreements, this occa- sional political unrest, however, do not indicate any real lack of unity or determination. They are charac- serlsiit: ol` the race, they are insep arabic from the experience of a peo- ple who conduct government in the opcn, under democratic institutions. Thcy arc but the mists which hover about and perhaps for the moment obscure the granite' summit of the natlon’s‘ purpose. Across the pur- pose there lies no pathway to an ln- contrlusivc peace.
