tCopyrlght, 19. by American Press Asso
ciation. Washington, April J). In the first
notice concerning Dr. Talmage that
Pastor Charles H. Spurgeon of London
wrote the great English minister said
he was glad to find a preacher that be
ttered something. This discourse of Dr.
Talmage is in that vein and urges close
adherence to the old gospel: text. II
Samnel xxiii. 10, "And his hand clave
unto the sword.'
What a glorionsthing to preach the
gospell Some suppose that because I
have resigned a fixed pastorate I will
cease to preach. No. no. I expect to
preach more than I ever have. If the
Lord will, four times as much, though
in manifold places. I would not dare
to halt with such opportunity to declare
the trnth through the ear -to audiences
and to the eye through the printing
press. And, here we hare a stirring
theme put before us by the prophet.
A great general of King David was
.Eleazar. the hero of the text The Phil
istines opened battle against him. and
his troops retreated. The cowards fled.
OTu. on1 three, nt Ms comrades went
4U4AC1 HMW - -
into the battle and swept the field, for
four men with God on their side are
stronger than a whole regiment with
Qod against them. "'"Fall back!" shout
ed the commander of the Philistine
army. The cry ran along the host,
"Full back!" Eleazar, having swept
to rest but the muscles and sinews of
his hand had been so long bent around
the hilt of his sword that the hilt was
imbedded in the flesh, and the gold
wire of the hilt had broken through the
skin of the palm of the hand, and he
could not drop this sword which he had
so gallantly wielded. "His hand clave
unto the sword. " That is what I call
magnificent fighting for the Lord God
of Israel. And we want more of it
Held InFIrm Grasp.
I propose to show you how Eleazar
took hold of the sword and how the
sword took hold of Eleazar. I look at
Eleazar' a hand, and I come to the con
clusion that he took the sword with a
very tight grip. The cowards who fled
had no trouble in dropping their swords.
As they fly over the rocks I hear their
swords clanging in every direction. It
is easy enough for them to drop their
swords, but- Eleazar's hand clave unto
the sword. In this Christian conflict we
want a tighter grip of the gospel weap
ons, a tighter grasp of the two edged
sword of the truth! It makes me sick to
see these Christian people who hold only
a Dart of the truth and let the rest of
tne trutn go, so that the rnilistines,
seeing the loosened grasp.! wrench the
whole sword away from them. The only
safe thing for us to do is to put our
sweep our hand around the book until
the New Testament comes into the palm
and keep on sweeping our hand around
the book until the tips of the fingers
clutch at the words "In, the beginning
God created the heavens and the earth. "
Hike an infidel a great deal better than
I do one of these naxnby pamby Chris
tians who bold a part of the truth and
let the rest go. By miracle God pre
served this Bible just as it is. and it is

factory is to wind the blade around a
gun barrel like a ribbon, and then when
the sword is let loose it flies back to its
own shape. So the sword of God's truth
has been fully tested, and it is bent this
way and that way and wound this way
and that way. but it always comes back
to its own shape. Think of it! A book
written near 10 centuries ago. and some
of it thousands of years ago. and yet in
our time the average sale of this book
is more than 20.000 .copies every week
and more than 1.000.000 copies a year!
I say now that a book which is divinely
inspired and divinely kept and divinely
scattered is a weapon worth holding a
tight grip of. Bishop Colenso will come

Friend, of All Good.
Do not be ashamed, young man. to
have the world know that you are a
friend of the Bible. This book is the
friend of all that is good, and it is the
sworn enemy of all that is bad. An elo-v
quent writer recently gives an incident
of a very bad man who stood in a cell
of a western prison This criminal had
gone through all styles of crime;- and
he was there waiting for the gallows.
The convict standing there at the win
dow of the cell, this writer says, look
ed out and declared. 1 am an infidel. 1
He said that to all the men and women
and children who happened to be gath
ered there, I am an infideL ' " And the
i " oa;s, aj ci jr man ana
woman there believed him. " AnoTthe
writer goes on to say. "If he had stood
there saying. '1 am a Christian, every
man and woman would have said. 4He
is a liar I " v
-.This Bible is the sworn enemy of all
that is wrong, and it is the friend of
nil that is good." .Oh. hold on it 1 Do
not take part of it and throw the rest
away. Hold on to all of it There are
so many people now who do not know.
You ask them if the soul is immortal,

this: "I believe in nothing, the maker

church and in the communion of saints
and' in the life everlasting. Amen! .
Oh. when I see Eleazar taking such a
stout grip of the sword in ' the battle
asrainst sin and for righteousness,
come' to the conclusion that we ought
to take a stouter grip of God's eternal
truth the sword of righteousness.
I ", . Foraret Self
As I look at Eleazar's hand I also
notice his' spirit of self forgetfulness.
He did not notice that the hilt of the
sword was eating through the palm of
his hand. He did not know it hurt him.
As he went out into the conflict he was
so anxious for the victory he forgot
himself, and that hilt might go never
so deeply into the palm of his hand, it
could not disturb him. "His hand clave
unto the sword." Oh, my brothers and
sisters, let us go into the Christian con
flict with the spirit of self abnegation.
Who cares whether the world praises
us or denounces us t What do we care
for misrepresentation or abuse or perse-
cution in a conflict , like this 7 - Let us
forget ourselves. That man who is
afraid of getting his hand hurt will
never kill a Philistine. Who cares
whether you get hurt or not if you get
the victory? Oh, how many Christiana
there are who are all the time worry
ing about the way the world treats
them ! They are so tired, and they are
so abused, and they are so tempted,
when Eleazar did not think whether he
had a hand or an arm or a foot All he
wanted was victory.
We see how men forget themselves in
worldly achievement We have often
seen men who, in order to achieve
worldly success, will forget all physical
fatigue and all annoyance and all ob-j
stacle. ' Just after the battle of York-
town in the American Revolution a
musician, wounded, was . told he must
have his limbs amputated, and they
were about i to fasten him to the sur
geon'8 table, for it was Jong before the
merciful discovery of anaesthetics. He
said: "No; don't fasten me to that ta
ble. Get me a violin.' A violin was
brought to him, and he said, "Now, go
to work as I begin to play, and for 40
minutes, during the awful pangs of
amputation,: he moved not a muscle
nor dropped a note, while he played
some sweet tune. Oh, is it not strange
that with the music of the gospel of
Jesus Christ and with this grand
march of the church militant -on- the
way to become the church triumphant,1
we cannot forget ourselves and forget
all pang and all sorrow and all perse
cution and all perturbation ?
Weak Christians.
We know what men accomplish un
der worldly opposition. Men do not
shrink back for antagonism or for hard
ship, j You have admired Prescott's
Conquest of Mexico." as brilliant and
.beautiful a history as was ever writ
ten, but some of you may not know un
der what disadvantages It was written
that VCohquest of Mexico" for
Prescott was totally blind, and he had
two pieces of wood parallel to each other
fastened, i and, totally blind, with his
pen between those pieces- of wood, he
wrote the stroke against one piece of
wood telling how far the pen must go
in ont way. the stroke against the other
piece of wood telling how far the pen
must go the other way. Oh, how much
men will endure for worldly knowledge
and for worldly success, and yet how lit
tle we endure for Jesus Christ 1 How
many Christians there are that go
around saying, "Oh. my hand; oh, my
hand, my ; hurt hand ! Don't you see
there is blood on the sword?" while
Eleazar. with the hilt imbedded in the
flesh of his right hand, does not know it I
Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others f ought to win the prize
Or sailed through bloody seas?
What have we suffered in comparison
with those who expired with suffoca
tion or were burnegl or were chopped to
pieces for the truth's sake? We talk of
the persecution of olden times. There
is just as much persecution going on
now in various ways. In 1849, in Mad
agascar, 18 men were put to death for
Christ's sake. They were to be hurled
aver the rocks, and before they were
hurled over the rocks, in order to make
their death the more dreadful in antici
pation, they were put in baskets and
swung to andj fro over the precipice
that they might see how many hundred
feet they would have to be dashed
down, and while they were swinging
in these ! baskets over the rocks they

men they were dashed down to

dured for Christ, and howOittle we en
dare for Christ! We want to ride to

feet on soft plush, the bed made up

' v Strike Ilard For Right.
As I look at Eleazar's hand I come to
the conclusion that he has done a great
deal of hard hitting. I am not surprised
when I see that these four men -Eleazar
and his'three companions drove back
the army of Philistines that Eleazar's
rwong clave to his hand, for every time
he struck an enemy with one end of the
sword the other end of the sword
wounded him.' When he took hold of
the sword, the sword took hold of him.
v: j Oh, we have found an enemy . who
cannot be conquered - by rosewater and
soft speeches. It must be sharp stroke
and straight thrust There is intemper
ance, and there' is fraud, and there is
gambling, and there is lust and there
are 10,000 battalions of iniquity, armed
Philistine iniquity. , How are they to be
captured and overthrown ? Soft sermons
in morocco cases . laid down in front of
an exquisite audience will net do it
You have got to call v things by their
right name, You have got to expel
from our churches Christians who eat
the sacrament on Sunday and devour
widows houses, all the week. We have
got to stop our indignation .against the
Hittites and the Jebusites and the Gir-
gashites and let those poor wretches go
and apply our indignation to the mod
ern transgressions which need to be
dragged out and slain. Ahabs here.

tell you, my friends, we want a . few
John Knoxea and John Wesleys in the
Christian church today. The whole
tendency is to refine on Christian work.
We keep on refining on it until we
send apologetic, word to iniquity we are
about to capture it And we must go
with sword silver chased and presented
by the ladies, and we must ride on
white palfrey under embroidered hous
ing, putting the spurs in only just
enough to make the charger dance
gracefully,' and then we must send
missive, delicate as a wedding card, to
ask the old black giant of sin if he will
not surrender. Women saved by the
grace of God and on glorious mission
sent, detained from Sabbath classes be
cause their new hat is not dona
Churches that shook our cities with
great revivals sending around to ask
some demonstrative worshiper if he
will not please to say "amen" and
"halleluiah" a little softer. It seems as
if in our churches we wanted a baptism
of cologne and balm of a thousand flow
ers when we actually need a baptism
of fire from the Lord God of Pentecost
But we are so afraid somebody will
criticise our sermons or criticise our
prayers or criticise our religious work
that our anxiety for the world's re
demption is lost in the fear we will get
our hand hurt, while Eleazar went into
the conflict, "and his hand clave unto
the swerd. " - - j
Stronc; to the End,
But I , see in the next place what a
hard thing it was for Eleazar-to get his
hand and his sword parted. The mus
cles and the sinews had been so long
grasped around the sword he could not
drop it when he proposed to drop it,
and his three comrades, I suppose, came
up and tried to help him, and they
bathed the back part of the band, hop
ing the sinews and muscles would re
lax. But no. "His hand clave unto the
sword." Then they tried to pull open
the fingers and to pull back the thumb,
but no sooner were, they pulled back
than they closed again, "and his hand
clave unto the sword." But after
awhile they were successful, and then
they noticed that the curve in the palm
of the hand corresponded exactly with
the curve of the hilt "His hand clave
unto the sword." r
You and I have seen it many a time.
There are in the United States today
many aged ministers of the gospel.
They are too feeble now to preach. In
the church records the word standing
opposite their name is "emeritus," or
the words are "a minister without
charge. ' ' They were a heroic race. They
had small salaries and but few books,
and they swam spring freshets to meet
their appointments, but they did in
their day a mighty work for God. They
took off more of the heads of Philistine
iniquity than - you - could count from
noon to sundown. You put that old
minister,. of the gospel now into a prayer
meeting or occasional pulpit or a sick
room where there is some one to be com
forted, and it is the same old ring to his
voico and the same old story of pardon
and peace and Christ. and heaven. His
band has so long clutched the sword in
Christian conflict he cannot drop it
"His hand clave unto the sword."
I had in my parish in Philadelphia a
very aged man who in his early life had
been the companion and adviser of the
early presidents, Madison and Monroe.
He had wielded vast J influence, but I
only knew him as a very aged man.
The most remarakble thing about him
was his ardor for Christ' When he
cculd not stand up in the meetings
without propping, he would throw his
arm around a pillar of the church, and.
though his mind was partially gone, his
love for Christ was so great that all
were in deep respect and profound ad
miration and were moved when he
spoke. I was called to eee him die. I
entered the room, and he. said, "Mr.
Talmage,1! cannot speak to you now."
He was in a very pleasant delirium, as
he imagined he had an audience before
him. He said. "I must tell these people
to come to Christ and prepare, for heav-
en. And tnen in tnis pleasant deliri
um, both arms lifted this octogenarian

of the world to come. There, lying on
his dying pillow, his dying hand clave

had a right to retire from the conflict

His dying hand clave unto the sword, j
There is the headless body of Paul on
the road to Oetea. His great brain and
his great heart have been severed. The
elmwood rods bad etnng him fearfully.
When the cornship broke np, he swam
ashore, coming np drenched with-the
brine. Every day since that day when
the horse reared under him in the sub
urbs of Damascus, as the supernatural
light fell, down to this day, when he is
cell of the Mamartine, he has been out
rageously treated, and he is waiting to
die. How does he spend his last hours?
Telling the world how badly he feels
and describing the rheumatism that he
got in prison, the rheumatism afflicting
his limbs of the neuralgia piercing his
temples or the thirst that fevers his
tongue t Oh. no ! His last words are the
battle shout for Christendom,1 'I am
now ready to be offered, and the time
of my departure is at hand ; I have
fought the good fight.' And so hia dy
ing hand clave unto the sword.
Itwa8 in the front room on the sec
ond floor that my father lay a-dyingj
It was Saturday morning, 4 o'clock.!
Just three years before that day my
mother had left him for the skies, and
he had been homesick to join her com
pany. He was 83 years of age 1 Minis
ters of the gospel came in to comfort
him, but ' he comforted them. How
wonderfully the words sounded out
from his dying pillow, "I have been
young and now am old, yet have; I
never seen the righteous forsaken of
his seed begging bread." They bathed
his brow and they bathed his hands and
they bathed his feet and they succeeded
in straightening out the feet, but they;
did not succeed in bathing open the
band so it would stay open. They
bathed the hand open, but it came shutj
They bathed it open again, but it came
shut What was the matter with the
thumb and the fingers of that old hand ?
Ah, it had so long touched the sword
of Christian conflict that "his hand
clave unto the sword."
The Grip of Truth. ;
I intend this sermon as a tonic. I
want yon to hold the truth with in
eradicable grip, and I want you to
strike bo hard for God that it will react
and while you take the sword the sword
will take you. You notice that the offi
cers ofJ the northern army every year
assemble, and you notice that the offl-i
cers of ; the southern army every year
assemble. Soldiers coming together are
very apt to recount their experiences
and to show their scars. Here is a sol
dier who pulls np his sleeve and says.
"There; I was wounded in that arm,'
and shows the scar. And another sol
dier pulls .down his collar and says,
There; I was wounded on the neck."
And another soldier eays. "I have had
ho use of that limb since the gunshot
fracture.." Oh, my friends, when the
battle of life is over and the resurrec
tion has come and our bodies rise from
the dead, will we have on us any scars
showing our bravery for God? Christ
will be there all covered with .scars.
Scars on the brow, scars on the hand.
scars on the feet, scars all over the heart
won in the battle of redemption. And
all heaven will sob aloud with emotion
as they look at those scars. Ignatius
will be there, and he will point out the
place where the tooth and paw of the
lion seized him in the Co&enxri. and

firmly and struck so hard that the
sword and the hand stuck together and
the hand clave to the sword. Oh, my
