'ICO
At this glorious Eastertide, when the aboi nding love of
God for man triumphs over death and sin throi'-rh the resur
rection of His Son, it is meet that we should dv -.11 with more
than wonted fervor on the ruling spirit of the universe Love.
Turning to the fifteenth chapter of Corinthians, the 26th
verse, we find these words: "The last enemy; that shall be
destroyed is death." " .
Again, in the fifty-sixth verse, we find, "The sting of
death is sin." ,
Death and sin are the twin vampires that fasten them
selves at the throat of humanity. Time was when they were
not, and time is to come when they shall not be. . The history
of man reveals to us that they appeared together, and to
gether they shall disappear. The sting of death, came only
when sin came into the world, and ever since, 'the human
race has been in the toils of a relentless, undying toe and the
battle always seems to end in defeat. It was that that des
troyed the several 'splendid systems of philosophy! developed
by the early philosophers. Yet Plato stood ; vVry high, and
almost pierced this cloud that overshadowed the jearth. He
did not, however, because he failed in the sublime conception
of a great eternal world beyond, where everlasting life awaits
all who merit it. , I
Some students of nature have come to the conclusion that
she is red in tooth and claw, and that she doel not care
whether the blood stains are of the guilty orj innocent.
Huxley, one of the greatest exponents of this phase of nature
Lhas stated his conclusion in somewvhat this form: "I see no
reason why things may not go on eternally as they are, and I
often hope, for the coming of a great comet that' will ex
tinguish life on this sphere." I '
There are other students of ftature who have! observed
this same phenomena that Huxley has palled at ind have
come to the same conclusion. They find nature ret ; in tooth
arid claw. They note the evidences of the strugglt "for life.
But they have looked, too, beyond, and discoverec another
struggle just as powerful, if not so evident. ' Son i-one has
expressed it as "the struggle for the life of others."
Every plant that spreads its leayes beneath
rays of the sun, every flower that in beauty divii
fragrance to the kisses of passing.zephyr, pp ' -
its life by seeds, and in the fulfills '
Every bird thaLXu'.U.-. a ,v
for its eggs, and in brooding tenderly over tu .. . iving
up' its hope of another summer that the birdlings j..ay go
out into the sunshine and sing their songs to Nature's God-- .;
-The savage gorilla sits beneath the tree whose branches
shield his mate and their young and listens for the dreaded
cry of the prowling enemy of the jungle in search of food,
and it knows if danger comes its life must be given in combat
to save its little ones. Here is the struggle for the'life of
others. . - -
The savage goes out and .seeks for game, and, hungry as
he may be, touches it not, until he hafc brought it back to the
child and mother waiting in his wigwam.
Love began when the first human child was born, when
thought and care for the child took precedence in the
mother's heart, when selfishness gave way to self-sacrifice.
This love is the deadly enemy of sin, and as love's kingdom
waxes strong the reign of sin is weakened.
All real advance in civilization is an advance in self-
sacrifice. It has long been a debated question as to whether
we are really very much beyond the civilization of the Greeks
and Romans. It is discussed today in the school-room and
n the public forum, and we may even hear a hearty defender
of our times, expressing his opinion of our civilization,'hold-
ng up our Schools and Colleges, our well-paved streets and
ailways, telegraphs and telephones. But these are not the
measures of our actual advance. We have made great strides
beyond the culture of the Greeks and Romans; we have and
still are advancing in the breaking away of classes, In the
putting of all men on an equal footing as children of a com
mon Almighty Father; in beneficence, kindliness and self
sacrifice in a word, in placing altruism where selfishness
once held sway, ine strusrirle for seli-liie crivinir wav to the
struggle for the life of others.
It is by belief in the power of love that sin will be'eon-
luered. St. Paul tells us to "overcome evil by good," because
he knows this is the only way to root out evil and place the
standard of right securely in our hearts. It is this hope in
the final triumph of good that, after all, makes this universe
seem worth while. Talk of its vastness, and this brings no
relief. Tell us of its grandeur, and there is still an unsatisfied
desire for something that rises above it.
But when we realize that this earth, just as we find it,
the best battlefield for the growth of character, and that
beyond and above it, stand justice and truth, hidden only
for a time, but surely coming forth greater and grander than
all el.-e besides, then will fresh hope pierce the darkest
cloud that ever sheltered the earth athwart, and the triumph
of love over sin be accomplished. Then will we fill our
appointed place in bringing forward the great Judgment
day, when all our efforts will be measured in the light of
self-sacrifice and love, and our reward will be to see our
Pilot face to face, wno after His great sacrifice of love on
Calvary's crest, rose from the grave on Easter morn and pro
claimed, "I am the resurrection and the life."
Go to church tomorrow and seek to become fervent fol
lowers of the risen Christ. - ;
