SYNOPSIS OF SERMON PREACHED BY THE REV. BRO. J. A. CAHILL, AT SUMMERSIDE. | (Published by Request.) | Trext.—Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.—Mat. vii. 12. I am pleased to welcome you, the Brother- ‘hood of Oddfellows, to our churer to-day, and ‘am also pleased to have the honor of being ‘myself a member of the Order, When among the fraternity I feel | am among my fellows, my friends—yea better, among true men. But | some will say I know there are in the frater- nity dishonest and bad men, hence the rinciple must be wrong ; they cannot be ounded on the truth. Well, there was a i bad, dishonest man among the apostles—one Judas ; but this does not destroy apostleship, which was instituted by our Savior. The Church has some very bad, dishonest men in it. It has had such init in every age. Why not condemn the church, that most sacred and divine of all institutions. If in the fraternity of Oddfellows there are some bad men, and strange were there not some, the principles of the Order have not made them bad, but ignoring the truth, they like Judas and many in the church have followed the evil in their cérrupt natures and have thus .| brought reproach upon that which was pure and noble. Hence, do not condemn the Order because there are bad men in it, for upon that principle you weuld sweep from earth every institution, even the family circle, ] am pleased that to-day it is my privilege to address the Brotherhood from God's word. In the text we have one of the most simple and vet one of the most far-reaching truths ever uttered by our dear Lord. Because of its infinite excellence this is everywhere known as the goldenrule. This precept is the supplement or practical application of the positive law: ‘* Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” The one is the royal law, the other the grand fulfilment of that law. But we are not to infer that this text expresses man’s whole religious duty, Do not conclude that all the requirements of God's law are summed up in thisone rule, Not so. This cept marks out the way in which man is to do his duty to the common brotherhood of man. It expresses the human side ef religion or the normal way of manifesting the Divine Life in man. But in religion there is another side the Divine side, and that side is summed up in the itive law, ‘‘ Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart.” In this grand law and golden rule are contained the whole law and the prophets. This text then a that the fount of our moral eings has been touched by the Divine Power, and that, in us, the Divine Life of leve to God is struggling to manifest itself. This golden rule points out the Divine Way to show our love to God, and prove to those about us that we do possess the Divine Life. ‘‘ Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye eyen so to them.” But the question will arise, how broad is the word ‘‘ others?” Who are included by it? How far doos it extend? To what length does it take me? What grades of society are encircled by it? When Christ ex- ressed the law, ‘‘ Thou shalt love thy neigh- ras thyself,” the question was asked, who is my neighbor? Christ fully answers that question, and in the answer He clearly defines the true neighbor. Now in that definition of neighbor,I think we have the word ‘‘ others ” defined clearly as used in the text. He who made of one blood all natians thereby estab- lished eammon brotherhood of man—one Teieabebl family. Hence the word ‘ others ’ in the text is as broad asthe race of man, and my obligation as expressed by the text is as wide asthe world’s deep need, circum- scribed by my ability to help and to bless the world. This golden rule is then the Divine injunction that we should recognize that universal brotherhood of man and onr relation and duty toit. Christ during His ministry on earth brought two truths into grand pro- minence that were never before made pro- minent. ne was touching our relation to God, the other man’s relation to his fellow- man. The Jews thought of God as the Great Creator, the Mighty Legislator, the Omnipo- tent God, the Great Judicial Ruler. Christ comes and elevates and softens these stern relations into one more precious and dear, viz., one of common fatherhood, Christ taught aa was never before taught the com- mon Fatherhood of God. That God was a spirit and would delight not so much in bloody sacrifices as in spirit worship. He re- presented the Jehovah of universal govern- ment, one of universal love, yea, that He was love. The other great truth brought into such grand prominence by our Saviour was the common brotherhood of man. These two truths are vitally ynited. The common Fatherhood of God implies and necessitates the common brotherhood of man. Christ taught that man, even in the lowest strata, wasaman, and though vile in the extreme was worth saving. Yea, He came to seek as well as save the lost. He came asa man among men. He never impressed a suffering, sin-sick race with his importance. He proved by His whole life as well as His death that He was our fellow and the benefactor of the human family. These truths emancipate men from wrong views of themselves and their Maker, and give them self-respect. which is the noblest of all freedom. Christ would have us apprehend these two truths, and prove that we in heart helieve in the common Fatherhood of God by a practical recognition of the common brotherhood of man. ‘‘Ihere- fore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.” This, brothers, is the new law of the New Kingdom—the Kingdom of Love. The law of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth is not the rule of our lives. By the common version of that law, we render good for good, evil for evil, or even for supposed evil We do to others as some gossip or scandal- monger says they think others have done to us. ed upon supposed evil of innocent parties. We pay in the same coin that we think we have received, hence the bitter strife and conflict of earth. We, by the new law are not to do to others as some have thought others have done to us nor as they really have done to us, but as we under similar circumstances would have them do to us. Lam to use every human being as I would be used under the same or ‘similar circumstances. If this was done the strife and conflict of earth would cease. Christ says, with what measure ye mete it shall be’ measured to you again. In the world every spirit begets its own likeness. Like begets like. The world is apt to give me in kind what it receives from me. It L use him mean- Much of the strife and bitterness of life is found-, VOL. 22.—NO. 137. ly, he will pay in the same. If I judge hardly he will do the same to me. I will generally reap what I sow. Again, I have no right to expect better usage from my fellow man than I gave him. If 1 wrong Jones out of $40 | to complain when Jones wrongs me out of $40. I do not claim that Jones does right in wrong- ing me, but when I complain, I acknowledge that I did wrong. I received what I gave and have no just cause of complaint. Though man- kind is a common brotherhoad, yet there are many heterogeneous elements in it, there are moral, social and intellectual grades— some very low down. The golden rule when made practically tends to level up society. And yet that levelling is as far removed from socialism and communism, as east is from west. It is also opposed to the so-called scientific idea of the survival of the fittest. It is a moral as- similation that we seek an upiifting of the race to a higher idea of life. Society, in one sense, can never be levelled up. The social grades found everywhere are the outcome of one of the fixed laws. Birds of a feather flock together. By no rule can you compel the philosopher or poet to enjoy the society of the hod carrier. 3ut in another sense we can level up society. As Christians and Odedfeli- lows it is our work to do it. This can be done in two ways. First, by bringing the high grades down to the level of low. Second, by lifting the low up toa level with the higher grades, these two ways are practised. A man has been used meanly, the act in his moral nature he despises; but he says I will be square with the offender,’and he in turn treats his neighbo. meanly. They are now ona level, there are two mean men, wheie there might have been but one, and should have been none. He is lied to by another. He gets level by lying to the party in turn. He is cheated by a third and at the first opportunity cheats, the the third in turn making two villains, where there might not have been any. A man is lying in the gutter. By two ways I can get level with him, first, by lying in the gutter with him, end second, by a manly and Chris- tian love lifting him up tom higher and nobler plane of living. The second is the true way to level up society. When we are treated wrong- ly, set them an example of an ideal moral character and by our influence raise them up to it. Place them where they can respect themselves, and then they are worthy of the respect of the common brotherhood. Odd. fellowship not only recognizes the common brotherhood of man, but also strives to lift up the lower grades so that the whole may be a worthy brotherhood. It recognizes in every man—a man. It counts men not aceording to what they have but what they are, not by circumstances, but by character. And if, in any, the character is lacking as it is in Smany, by acting upon the golden rule, endeavors to raise mer to what they should he. ‘To inspire them by example,to a grander idea of morals. Through this we may not only recognize a common brotherhood, but a noble brother- hood, one that God can look upon with de- light. Oddfellowship is no organized, is not an ancient order, but in another and more im- portant sense is very old. Abraham in his attitude toward Lot, Joseph in his dealings toward his brethren and the Samaritan in his kindness to the stranger, were all Oddfellows, because they in life exemplified the princi- ples which now underlie the order. In the past so few have acted by the golden rule,that no doubt good and true men have viewed these few as odd, and desiring to increase the num- ber, and thus elevate and bless the world, have formed the organization called the Odd- fellows, A common brotherhood, universal friendship, love and truth, are the foundation stones of the structure. Help and sympathy for the needy every where. Our aim is to in- spire to high and noble moral character. Brothers, our principles are Eternal, our cause a noble one. Let us by noble character and liues do them credit. Let all we do flow from love to Him, who, in His whole life exempli- fied the text. Then if we are not recognized by the world in our work aad labor of love,we will be by the Father who seeth in secret and who will reward the faithful servant. May God bless the Brotherhood. Coal Shipments. A Toronto Mail correspondent, who is now in Manitoba, writes that the future coal shipments from Northwest Canada into the United States promise to become very large. The coal of the Banff mine having been adjudged Canadian anthracite, is ad- mitted to the United States free of duty. It has already attained a reputation in some localfties in the United States, and is being shipped in large quantities even to Cali- fcrnia. Since last October, 5,000 tons have been exported to the Spreckles sugar re- finery at San Francisco, and the corres pon- dent if informed that the same establish- ment is only awaiting the perfect develop- ment of the mines to order 100 tons a. day. Large quantities of the same coal have been used in Winnipeg this winter. The agents claim that when rid of slate and well clean- ed it will displace the Pennsylvania coal entirely. <> «ie Apvice to Morurers.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth.
