Holy Ghosl Br WltnoM A(alt Him, bat Christ Pl.ds Hit Cm mmd H l gv4. Brookltk, Doc. i9.-.Th Rer. T. DWitt lalmage, D. D., preached to-day in the Brooklyn Tabernacle on the subject: "On Trial," taking lor his text I John i, 2: "We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous," he said: Standing in a court room you say bo your self: "At this bar crime has often been ar raigned; at this witness stand the oath has often been taken ; at this jurors' bench the verdict has been rendered, at this judge's desk sentence has been pronounced." But I have to tell yon to-day of a trial higher than any oyer and terminer, or circuit, or supreme, or chancery. It is the trial of every Chris tian man for the life of his sou). This trial is different from any other in the fact that it is both civil and criminal. The issues at stake are tremendous, and I shall in my sermon show yii, first, what are the grounds of complaint; then who are the witnesses in the cause, and lastly, who are the advocates. When a trial is called on, the first thing is w nave me indictment read. Stand up, then, 0 Christian man, and hear the indictment of the court of high heaven against thy soul ! It is an indictment of ten counts, for thou hast directly or indirectly broken all the ten commandments. You know how it thun dered on Sinai, and when God came down how the mountain rocked, and the smoke as cended as from a smoldering furnace, and the darkness gathered thick, and the loud, deep trumpet uttered the words: "The soul that sinneth, it shall die!'' Are you guilty or not guilty ? Do not put in a negative plea too quick, for I have to announce that "all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Ihere is none that doeth good; no, not one. Whosoever shall keep the whole law yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." Do not, therefore, be too hasty in pronouncing yourself not guilty. This lawsuit before us also charges you with the breaking of a solemn contract Many a time did we promise to be the Lord's. We got down on our knees and said : "O Lord, I am Thine now and forever." Did you keep the promise? Have you stood up to th? contract? I go back to your first com munion. You remember it as well as if it were yesterday. You know how the vision of the cross rose before you. You remember how from the head, and the hands, and the side, and the feet, there came bleeding forth these two words: "Remember me!" You recall how the cup of communion trembled in your hand when you first took it; and as in a sea shell you may hear, or think you hear, the roaring of the surf even after the shell has been taken from the beach, so you lifted the cup of communion, and you heard in it the surging of the great ocean of a Saviour's agony; and you came forth from that communion service with face shining as though you had been on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the very air seemed tremulous with the love of Jesus, and the woods, and the leaves, and the grass, and the birds were brighter and sweeter voiced than ever before, and you said down in the very depths of your soul: "Lord, Thou knowest all things; Thou knowest that 1 love thee." Have you kept the bargain, O Christian man? Have you not sometimes faltered when you ought to have been true? Have you not been proud when you ought to have been humble? Have you not played the coward when you ought to have been the hero? I charge it upon vou and I chars: it upon myself we have broken the contract. Still further, this lawsuit claims damages at your hands. The greatest slander on the Christian religion is an inconsistent pro fessor. The Bible says religion is one thing; we by our inconsistency say religion is some other thing, and what is more deplorable about it is, that people can see faults in others while they cannot see any in themselves. If you shall at any time find some miserable old gossip, with imperfections from the crown of her head to the sole of her foot, a perfect blotch of sin herself, she will go tattling, tattling, tattling all the years of her life, about the inconsistencies of others, having no idea that she is inconsistent herself. God save the world from the gossip, female and male ! I think the males are the worst. Now the chariot of Christ's salvation goes on through the world, but it is our inconsisten cies, my brethren, that block up the wheels, while all along the line there ought to have been cast nothing but palm branches, and the shout should have been lifted, "Hosanna to the son of David." Now you have heard the indictment read. Are you ready to plead guilty or not guilty ? Perhaps you are not ready yet to plead. Then ; the trial will go on. The witnesses will be called, and we shall have the matter decided. In tho name of God I now make proclama tion: "OyezI oyez! oyez! Whosoever bath anything to offer in this trial, in which God is the plaintiff and the Christian soul the de fendant, let him now step forth and give tes timony in. l-his solemn trial." The first witness that I call upon the stand in behalf of the prosecution is the World all critical and observant of Christian character. You know that there are people around you who perpetually banquet on the frailties of God's children. You may know, if you have lived in the country, that a crow cares for nothing so much as carrion. There are those who imagine that out of the faults of Chris tians thov can make a bridge of boats across the stream of death, and they are going to try it; but, alas, for. the mistake! When they get amid stream away will go the bridge and down will go their soul to perdition. O, World of the greedy eye and the hard heart, come on the stand now and testify in behalf of tbe prose cution against this Christian soul on trial. What do you know about this Christian man? "Oh," says the World, "I know a great deal about him. He talks about putting his treasures in Heaven, but he is the sharpest man in a trade I ever knew. He seems to want us to believe that he is a child of God, but he is just full of imperfections. I do not know but I am a great deal better than he is now. Oftentimes he is very earthly, and he talks so little about Christ and so much about himself, I am very glad to testify that this is a bad man. " Stop, O World with the greedy eye and the hard heart. I fear you are too much in terested in this trial to give impartial evi dence. Let all those who hear the testimony of this witness know that there is an old family quarrel between these two parties. There always has been a variance between the World and the Church, and while the world on the witness stand to-day has told a great deal of. truth about this Christian man, you must take it all with some allowance, remembering that they still keep the old grudge good. O World of the greedy eye and the hard heart, that will do. You may sit down. The second witness I call in this case is Conscience. Wh6 art thou, Oh Conscience? What is your business? Where were yon born? What are you doing here? "Oh!" says Conscience, "I was born In heaven. I came down to befriend this man. I have lived with him. I have instructed him. I have warned him. I showed him the right and the wrong, advising him to take the one and eschew the other. I have kindled a great light in bis soul. With a whip of scorpions I have scourged his wickedness and I have tried to cheer him when doing right; and yet I am compelled to testify on the stand today that he has sometimes rejoctea my mission Oh. how many cups of life have I' pressed to his lips that he dashed down, and bow often has be stood with his hard heel on the bleeding heart of the Son oX God! It pain m ery- 1 bTa to GOLDSBORO, MESSENGER, MONDAY terory against this Christian nan, and yt I must, In -behalf of Him who will in no wis clear the guilty, say that this Christian man has done wrong. He has been worldly. He has been neglectful. He has done a thousand things he ought not to have done, and left radons a thousand things he ought to have done." That will do. Conscience. You can sit down. The third witness I call in the case, is an Angel of God. Bright and shining one, what doest thou hare! What hast thou to say against this man on trial! "Oh I" says the angel, "I have been a messenger to him. I have guarded him. I have watched him. With this wing I have defended him, and oftentimes when he knew it not I led him into the green pasture and beside the still waters. I snatched from him the .poisoned chalices. When Lad spirits came upon him to destroy him I fought them back with infinite fierceness; and yet I have to testify to-day that he has rejected my mis sion. He has not done as he ought to have done. Though I came from the kky he drove me back. Though with this wing I defended him, and though with this voice I wooed him, I have to announce his multiplied im perfections. I dare not keep back the testi mony, for then I should not dare to appear again amongst the sinless ones before the white throne." There is only one more witness to be called on behalf of the prosecution, and that is the great, the holy, the august, the omnipotent Spirit of God. We bow down before Him. Holy Spirit, knowest thou this man 1 "Oh, yes," says the holy one, "I know him. I have striven with him ten thousand times, and though sometimes he did seem to repent, he fell back again as often from his first estate. Ten thousand times ten thousand has he grieved Me, although the Bible warned him saying: 'Grieve not the Holy Ghost. Quench not the spirit.' Yes, he has driven Me back. Though I am the third person of the Trinity he has trampled on my mission, and the blood of the atonement that I brought with which to cleanse his soul, he sometimes despised. I came from the throne of God to convert, and comfort, and sanctify, and yet look at that man, and see what he is compared with what, unresisted, I would have made him." The evidence on the part of the prosecution has closed. Now let the defense bring on the rebuttal testimony. What have you, O Christian soul, to bring in reply to this evi dence of the World, of the Conscience, of the Angel and of the Holy Ghost? No evidence! Are all these things time? "Yes, unclean, un clean," says every Christian soul. What? Do you not begin to tremble at the thought of condemnation? We have come now to the most interesting part of this great trial. The evidence all in, the advocates speak. The profession of an advocate is full of responsibility. In England and the United States there have arisen men who in this calling have been honored by their race and thrown contempt upon those who in the profession have been guilty of a great many meannesses. That profession will Be honorable as long as it has attached to it such names as Mansfield, and Marshall, and Story, and Kent, and South ard and William Wirt. The court room has sometimes been the scene of very marvelous and thrilling things. Some of you remember the famous Girard will case, where one of our advocates pleaded the cause of the Bible and Christianity in masterly Anglo-Saxon, every paragraph a thunderbolt. Some of you have read of the famous trial in Westminster hall of Warren Hastings, the despoiler of India. That great man had con quered India by splendid talents, by courage, by bribes, by gigantic dishonesty. The whole world had rung with applause or condemna tion. Gathered in Westminster hall was one of the most famous audiences ever gathered. Foreign ministers and princes sat there. Peers marched in clad "in ermine and gold. Mighty men and women from all lands looked down upon the scene. Amid all that pomp and splendor, and amid an excitement such as has seldom been seen in any court room, xuimund Burke advanced, in a speech which will last as long as the English language, concluding with this burning charge, which made Warren Hast ings cringe and cower: "I impeach him in the name of the Commons house of parlia ment, whose trust he has betrayed. I im peach him in the name ef the English nation, whose ancient honor be has sullied. I im- peace him in the name of the people of India, whose rights he has trampled on, and whose country he has turned into a desert. And, lastly, in the name of human nature, in the name of both sexes, in the name of every age and rank, I impeach him as the common ene my and oppressor of all." But I turn from the recital of these mem orable occasions to a grander trial, and I have to tell you that in this trial of the Christian for the life of his soul the advo cates are mightier, wiser and more eloquent. The evidence all being in, Justice rises on behalf of the prosecution to make his plea. With the Bible open in his hand he reads the law, stern and inflexible, and the penalty : "The soul that sinneth it shall die." Then he says: "O thou, judge and lawgiver, this is thine own statute, and all the evi dence in earth and heaven agrees in stating that this man has sinned against all these en actments. Now let the sword leap from its scabbard. Shall a man go through the very flames of Sinai unsinged? Let the law be executed. Let judgment be pronounced. Let him die. I demand that he die." O Christian, does it not look very dark for thee? Who will plead on thy side in so for lorn a cause? Sometimes a man will be brought into a court of law, and he will have no friends and no money, and the judge will look over the bar and say: "Is there any one who will volunteer to take this man's case and defend him?" and some young man rises up and says: "I will be his counsel," perhaps starting on from that very point to a great and brilliant career. Now, in this; matter of the soul, as you have nothing to pay for counsel, do you think that any one will vol unteer? Yes, yes; I see one rising. He is a young man, only S3 years of age. j I see His countenance suffused with tears and covered with blood, and all the galleries of heaven are thrilled with the spectacle, j Thanks be unto God ! "We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.," O, Christian soul, your case begins to look better. I think, perhaps, after all you may not have to die. The best advocate in all the universe has taken your side. No one was ever so qualified to defend a man as this ad vocate is qualified to defend you. ; He knows all the law, all its demands, all its penalties. He is always ready. No new turn of the case can surprise Him, and He will plead for you for nothing as earnestly as though you brought a world of treasured to His feet Be- sides that he has undertaken the care of thousands who were as forlorn as you, and He has never lost a case. Courage O Chris tian soul! I think that after all there may be some chance for you, for the great advocate rises to make his plea. He says: j "I admit all that has been proved against my client I admit all these sins, aye, more; but look at that wounded hand of mine, and look at that other wounded hand, and at jmy right foot and at my left foot j But all these wounds I plead for ; his clear ance. Count all the drops! of my tears. Count all the drops of my blood.' By the humiliation of Bethlehem, by the sweat of Gethsemane, by the sufferings of the cross, I demand that he go free. On this arm he hath leaned; to this heart be bath flown; in my tears he hath washed; on my righteous ness he hath depended. Let him go free; I am the ransom Let bim escape the lash; I took the scourgings. Let the cup pass from him ; I drank it to the dregs. Put on him the crown of life, for I have worn the crown of thorns. Over against my cross of shame set his throne of triumph." i Well, the counsel on both sides have spoken, and there is only one more thing now remain ing, and that is the awarding of the judg ment If you have ever been in a court room you know the silence, and the solemnity, when the verdict is about to be rendered or the judgment about to be given. About this eoui on trial, shall It be eared or shall ft be lost! Attention! above, around, hanmirrt All the universe cries, "Heart Hear!" The judge rise and gives this decision, never to be changed, never to be revoked. "There is, theref ore,.now no cond emnatioa to uiem who are in Christ Jesua. "The soul that on Jeeus hath leaned for repoes, X will not, I will not, desert to His f oee; That eouL though aB hell should endeavor to shake, I'U never, no never, do never forsake. But, my friends, there is coming a day of trial in which not only the saint, but the sinner must appear. That day of trial will come very suddenly. The farmer will be at the plow, the merchant will be in the counting- room, sne woooman win oe ringing hia ax on ine mciconed, the weaver will have his foot on the treadle, the manufacturer will be waiting amid the buzz of looms and the clack of flying machinery, the counsel may be stand ing at the bar pleading the law, the minister may be in the pulpit pleading the gospel, the drunkard may be reeling amid his cups, and the blasphemer with the oath caught between his teeth. Lol The sun hides. Night comes down at mid-noon. A wave of darkness rolls over the earth. The stars appear at noonday. The earth shudders and throbs. There an earth quake opens and a city sinks as a crocodile would crunch a child. Mountains roll in their sockets and send down their granite cliffs in an avalanche of rock. Rivers pause in their chase for the sea, and ocean, uprear- lng, cries to flying Alps and Himalayas. T i i, . . M uvaavt ueuow ana moan, ana snurr up the darkness. Clouds fly like flocks of swift eagles. Great thunders beat and boom and burst. Stars shoot and fall. The Al mighty, rising on his throne, declares that time shall be no longer, and the archangel's trump repeats it till all the living hear, and the continents of dead spring to their feet, crying: "Time shall be no longer!" Oh, on that day, will you be ready! I have shown you how well the Christain wm get on in nis trial, w ui you get oil as well in your trial? Will Christ plead on your side or will he plead against you? Oh, what win you ao in the last great assise, u your conscience is against you, and the world is against you, and the angels of heaven are against you, and the Holv Spirit is against you, and the Lord God Almighty is against you? Better this day secure an advocate. A Warm Place to Sleep. Perhaps you never stopped to think that in a city like Chicago live a good many people of various sorts who are able to enjoy no greater comfort, no more delicious luxury, than a warm place to sleep. Thinking the matter over you will doubtless perceive that anything like happiness or contentment without a snug, warm place to sleep o' nights is impossible. Given fine raiment, rich food, good health, wealth and all of the pleasures, delicacies and luxuries which money can buy or youth and vigor can enjoy all would be a mockery without a warm place to sleep. The prisoner in solitary confinement, the con- J 9 1 1 aemnea man in nis ceu, me pauper in a charity bed, the hopeless invalid on a couch that is never to be left save in death, is favored by fortune compared with him who possesses no warm retreat at night, who has almost forgotten what it is to sleep without an accompanying nightmare made up of cramps, chills and icy specters. If any living mortal deserves the pity and charity of his fallows it is the one whom night makes home less, who has door after door shut in his face, wno is cast out irom tne naDitations or man to shift for himself like a wild beast All this is what a policeman meant to say when he thus chatted at the west end of Madison street bridge: "What are those chaps doing there on the sidewalk next the flour mill? Gittin' warm. Sonfs of em's tramps who haint got no money, some's newsboys and bootblacks who'd rather spend their money goin' to the theaytres than for lodgings, and some's fellers in tough luck. No matter who they be an' what brought 'em here, I haint got the heart to drive 'em away. You see, there's big steam boilers right under the sidewalk there, and those grates are reg'lar hot air registers. Go stand over there an see how warm it is. Some of 'em sleeps there all night, an' mighty glad of the chance, too. Them cold nights we had 'em piled up there two or three deep. When it's real cold a man cant warm but one side o' hisself at a time there, but the boys took turns actin as watchman', the watchman's duty bein' to turn t'other fellers over every fifteen minutes, sa'a to warm the cold side."
