In our day the Inquiry Is,." Will it pay ?'• This inquiry ia made and an answer demanded at the very threshold of every department of business and relation of life. A satisfactory answer must be ibtaiued before we will eugage in the one or recog nise tho other. Our social intercourse and the courtesies of friend ship are regulated by this rule. Men decide now, Botonlv their business pursuits, but their friend ship and relations In life by it This la the grand principle that underlies the whole superstructure of >cieiy so called. The marital relation—the most sacred—has at Uit fallen under thia rule and both parties, male and female, demand to know and most be made to be lieve that it will pay before engaging in it Yus, my yv,ung i«dy friends, your fether’s tax in-t has been carefully examined and your probable share iu it duly estimated, before even your beauty, your ac quirements or your virtues were considered. It waa decided that it would pay before the suitor came. And young gentlemen let me warn yoa that the ladle© have-eome skill in mathematics too—aud be lieve toost firmly that • 'figures won't lie," aud rest assured that it is the favorable rej>oit of figurrt in your case that underlies snd explains those sweet smiles so lavishly W Mowed upon you. You now have an easy solution ol the lituation. You need not aak. Why you were not accepted ? Or why he did not propose ? It Just wouldn't pay, that's all. And so of th# friendship of this world. If it will pay to know yon, you shall ->o well known ; but If not you will be shaken off aa a useless thing. Msn must make a gain of everything. To meet tliia disposition of the human hi art the Godliness of our text ia >ffered. It promises a gain upon all things—all things that make uf> hurnau life. What ia Godliness! There are two views of thb that w* shall mention, and then give the true s;rip tural view : The find view makes Religion purely and entirely emotional. The second view makes it entirely reformatorj One is all feeling, the other ell works. Either i* perilous and both wrong. Rebglou is not all feel ing, nor to it work only. The first is a sort of spo radic religion, that scarcely survives the occaaiot that gave it birth. The second a stilted Phariseoism that ought to have died before it was born. Those have no promise of th* life that r of that which is in come. Godliness, as aught by Jesus, is like the leaven hid in three measures of meal until all was leavened. 'Tia the Grace of God in the hoart manifesting itself in the outward life. 'Tia the pure stream flowing /Tom a fountain made pure. ’Tia the good fruit from a tree made good. Tis Chrirst in you, the h pe of glory. True godliness works from within outward. 'Tia vain to make clean the eutelde of the cup, while within is full of extortion or excess. 'Tis Qod/iAv- ness or being like God. 'Tis rising above our fallen nature to a pure and holy life. The ‘tal things" at the text is the sum total of the human life. Do you desire health! The godliness that demands chastity to the strictest thought—to keep our bodies under subjection—to live soberly, righteously and godly-to make no provision for the flesh to fulfill the lust* thereof, will eeve us from all excess that engenders disorder aud disease. Do you desire length of days! It commands you to es chew evil and do good. Do you dealre Joy aud peace! This godliness consists not iu moats snd drinks, hut righteousness snd Joy and peace in the Holy Ghost. To sum It all up. In this world you shall have an hundred fold of Joy aud peace—and in the world to com*, life everlasting. What promise* eo much! What else will give a gain of one hundred fold! philosophy what it piomiaes when we come k> die. Aristotle said, " Of all things, th* most ter- libls is to dto—to cease to bs." Socrates, when he bid his friends farewell, said, "You go back to live ; I stay to die ; aud it remaius to be teen which Is the better fortune." Ask Infidelity, and her son, the famous Frenchman fi.au answar—when aboat to die he offered his Phys ic ton half hta fortune for six months of life. ^ hen told he could not live elx weeka, "then,” said he, " I go quick to hell and you come after me." Holb said, I have mistaken the wholo matter. Ask Pleasure and her fondest victim, the gey young Lord Alemout shall answer : "O thou blasphemed but indulgent Lord God. heU will be a refuge, U it hide me from thy face." How different the Godly. David said, " I shall be satisfied when I awake in thy Ukeneas.” I know that my Redeemer liveth and He stall stand on the earth at the last day—when I ■all see for myself.” Paul said, "lam ready to be offered up hence forth. There ia a crown of righteousness for ms.” John wss commanded to write—"Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.” Jesue says, ” Behold looms quickly, and my re word is with me.” Even so com* Lord Jesus.” ABMiinua waiotiT, pactob.

Paul by preach ng attempted to tear away the veil which intervened l*etwccu the wisdom of this world snd the powei of God iu the cross of Christ, not, by eriug the cavils of Jews or Greeks, but by showing in the preaching of the Cross : 1st. The power of God's integrity and the divine vindication of Justice. In the cross God manifested His disapproval of sin by not sparing His own son, but by yielding him up to death that tho law might be justified aud Christ lx> the justifler of the un godly. 2d. God's powor is shown in the cross by the harmony of Justice and grace. Justice demands the punishment of the sinner; grace carries to him forgiveness. Christ bore our sins upon tho accursed tree, bo nne our sUmemont, and we being justified by his blood shall be saved from wrath. :Jd. The cross la the power of God's love.
