O I' ` E5 ` In St James Church last evening Dr Fullerton preached the fourth and last of his series of sermons on Death, Judgment, Heaven and Heli. There was a large congregation, and the musical portion of the service was excellent, Mrs Hare contributing a very fine solo. Considerable interest has been evidenced in these sermons, and last evening’s was particularly good. The text was taken from' the Gospel of St Matthew xxili. 33: " Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? " This, said the preacher, was the stern uticr- ance of Jesus Christ, not against the outcast of sociei.y nor thc ostracised of the Church; not against the drunk- nrd, the sensualist. but sternly and directly against the members of the Church of God, who were ellhcr living a 'double _life or unconsciously injuring others and thereby injuring i-lis Kingdom. Ile calls them, in no un- measured language, a generation of vlpers, and tells them there is nothing for them but the damnation of hell. A' few years ago it was customary for the great Spurgeon to advise his students in their teaching, always to shake their bearers well over the pit before they concluded s sermon. “That is the custom of a few to-day who have not grasped the higher revelation and broader vision that has come to our age through the teaching of. Jesus Christ. Where you have preaching combined with ignorance you may have fire and enthusiasm. but you always have a materialism that the preacher himself does not understand and that can never do either good or injury to his bearers. It is true that twenty-five or thirty years ago we heard more of hell and heaven in preaching than we do to- day. But we have changed; we no longer emphasise what lies beyond the-grgve.~._~,We are placing the accent on” i’l'e present life. We are not dreamers about something that will drop from the clouds and regenerate humanity. We are ideallsts working for the dawn of a new heaven, and s new earth, that day that will declare humani z' as a whole to be the temple of the ving God. And for this out- look o life, on death, on eternity, we gre hot indebted to the preachers of t e Christian Church. we are not indebted to the great theologians; we are indebted to the poets of the Vic- torian ern., to some of the brilliant intellects oi' New England. They have given till that vision of God that en- ables ill to sing that “ the love of God is broader than the measure of nmn's mind. and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind." But this change does not only- apply to the One hundred years ago Lord Chan- preaching in the Christian Church. (!€ll0l' Ailellllllry (?) opposed u bill that sought to declare that the theft of five shillings was not a capital offence. He insisted that if they ceased hanging then for stealing a dollar and a quarter property would not be safe, and every bishop in the House of Lords stood up by him in his opposition to that reform. To-day the temper of jurisprudence is so im- proved that the idea of vengeful pun- ishment cannot be endorsed anywhere. The penalties enacted by law are either for tho benefit oi’ society or for the good of tho individual criminal. Why should we not carry that same advance of thought, that same nobler conception oi' God into our teaching. into our ideas oi' the unseen and eternal. On one occasion the grcut Ilisniarck was shot ai. and during tho following meal he discussed it with his wife; ami she sold. 'If.I sow the assassin in such a position in heaven that l could push him down into hell I would gladly do li.” And the iron Bismarck sold, ‘You could not be in heaven und have that feeling in your mind.’ lt is incompatible with the presence of God in life, ami yet how much we Christians nurse the idea of vengeance. A man known to me, a preacher, says that in the city of London not very long ago a preacher depicting' the last judgment said. ‘ Young man, when you are sent to hell at the judgment day you will hear someone chime in Amen, and you will turn and see that it is your mother. Young woman. you will go through the same experience and it will be your father) It is impossible to believe in such extravaganza of barbaric hate. We have not so learned the Christ. The revelation of God has taught us some things higher and better, and we cannot believe in the idea that our Almighty God, who gave us the Christ, is a lorturer. Surely that is~ a de- graded phantom that should pass away and never reappear. The brilliant but lurid imagination of Dante is not in keeping with the light of the Cross of Jesus Christ. Let us abolish these thoughts for ever. They are a slander on the God who did not demand from us a sacrifice because we have sin, but who gave the' sacrifice and gave the highest and best that he had. And yet, in the light of Christian revela- iion, ihcre is a heaven, there is a hell. These are tremendous realities. They meet us here; they meet us hereafter. Death does not put an abrupt end to the continuity and unbroken develop- ment of character. We take our char- acters with us, and each one of ns goes to his own place. The great question. when we speak of hell and heaven, is, how are we going to enter '_(Continued _on_Page _ 'l’hree.)_° ` .Y_v__._. ,.__v-___»_A_?_-,-_-,-_- -_-A - -_-_-_-_-.-_-_-;.-.-_-_-_-_-_-_-: GONDENSED ADS.

March 28.-The funeral of the late Dr. McLellan which took place to-day from St. Paul s Church was the largest cver witness- ed in Summersidd. Two special trains, from Souris and Tignish, arrived in the afternoon with about 400 of the friends of the de- ceased. The train from the East brought a large delegation of the Knights of Columbus, of which order deceased was a member. These. and the members of ihc C. M. B. A. attend- ed the funeral in a body. Long before the service the church was lied to its utmost capacity. the centre pews having been reserved for the visiting brethren. Rev. Dr. McDonald, of Kinkora, preached the funeral sermon, taking his text from Romans 5 : 12. He re- ferred to the high esteem in which the D McLellan was held as was late. r. shown by the- very large attendsilcti. at his funeral and the manl’ SXDFBI' sions of sympathy heard on the an- nouncement of his death. He also re- ferred to the public spirit which he had displayed in the community, and very feeiingly referred to the loss his family had sustained in his sudden and tragic death. The polbbearers were Hon. J.A. Mo- Neill. A. A. McDonald, Ki C.. Chab lottetown; Alex. McNeill, M. D.; May- or A. C. Saunders, Hugh Mclnnis ond' William Stewart. Among those from outside points who attended the funeral were Pro- mier Mathielon. Hon. Charles Dalton.
