Text—''Except a man be born anew
he can not see the kingdom of God.”
John v:2l,
Regeneration and conversion are
fundamentals of salvation. Conversioh
is the human side or a man’s part, re
generation is the divine side or God's
part. In the one instance man does
the changing, in the other it is God who
does the work. If people to-day were
not so much like those of the long ago,
who were referred to by the Lord as
people who did not know and would not
consider, and later as those who con
tinually sought to hear some new thing,
they would be able to understand &
great many things that they now see
through the glass darkly, would be
seen clearly. Pity it is that a great
many of our theological teachers and
leaders, as well as many preachers, are
muddying the waters of theol.?'y and
making the tmnfs that God made clear
as foggy as possible. The Lord gave us
minds with which to think—heads to
use in some other way than as mere
hatracks. Alas! that so many people
are void of thought! The spirit ig in
the world to lead us into all truth,
Jesus Himself said: “When the
spirit of truth is come he will lead you
unto all truth.” And if we were only as
teachable and as leadable as we should
be, long ago we would have been led
unto truth.
Change of Motives of Life.
“Either make the tree good and its
fruit good, or make the tree corrugt and
its fruit corrupt, for the tree is known
by its fruit; the good man out of his
good treasure bringeth forth good
things; the evil man out of his evil
treasure bringeth forth evil things.”
Matt. xii:33-85. Out of the heart proceed
the issues of life, and if the heart be
bad all life must be bad; if the heart
bleghrtlght, all the acts of life must be
T .
A man in one of our Southern States
was an enthusiastic hunter. One day
he ran across the nest of a wild turkey.
Hunter as he was, he was thoroughly
familiar with the habits, customs, life
of the turkey, and so he decided that
he would take the eggs, set them under
a chicken hen and produce a good va
riety of turkeys that were domestic and
tame In their tendencies. The days
passed and the time for hatching ar
rived. With anxiety the hunter watched
the results. The patient hen had per
formed her duty. He noticed that the
first little turkey that was hatched out
jumped from the mest and started to
run. Others followed. He was surprised
that these tiny birds literally hit the
ground running, but he need not have
been, for they were simply true to their
true nature. So with the unregenerate
human heart.
It can do no goo?'thing until changed.
The wild turkey Is true to its nature.
'The bird was so born. Man that is born
in sin and brought forth in iniquity, the
‘lnspiratlons of whose heart is evil con
‘unuflly can not until his life motives
has been changed be and do what he
shouid be and do.
~ God the Producer.
This change can not occur until man
is in subjection and obedience to the
Lord of Glory. John i:l3 reads: “Which
were born, not of biood nor of the will
of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but
of God.” Again in 1 Cor. iii:6-7, Paul
says: ‘I planted, Apollos watered; but
God gave the increase.” What has man
ever produced? What has man ever
created? David cried out in the agony
of his sins, ‘‘Create a clean heart with
in me, O, Lord!” Man can take some
thing already created and invent some
thing out of it; change its form, but not
alter its value. God omnipotent alone
can create and make new things. Man
yields, God does the work. All changes
of heart are brought about solely
through the power of God. Some will
say that the doctrine of total depravity
is not true, but Christ says, ‘““Ye must
be born again,” even to Nicodemus,
high born, and a ruler of the Jews.
The man who doesn't believe in the
doctrine of depravity and sin centers
authority in self. Let man have ability
to change himself and that power makes
him wonderful. Recently Collier's
Weekly carried the followinijn its edi
torials, a quotation from the ‘‘Ladies’
Repository of 1853,” in regard to Emer

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW YORK, June 30.--Coton ruled
very dull to-day with nobody desirous
of making new commitments, pending
the Government condition flgures to
morrow. The early rally on The Jour
nal of Commerce report and cables did
not hold and the market acted a trifle
heavy at times, but was supported by
the *leading longs. X
Predictions for showers in Georgia
and the Carolinas and late easiness in
Liverpool probably had most to do with
the seaback.
sense of propriety. When, however, we
came to re&t ¥hnt this man, accord
ing to his own theory, is God, ‘A mani=
festation of the infinite infinite forms,’
our wonder ceased. Why should not a
man who congelves himself to be a part
of God be oracular? This modern divin
ity, however, does not ‘s’r.pur to have
many features of resemblance to Jesus
Christ.”
Man Is a sinner, Christ is Saviour.
Man can only be saved by grace
through faith in Christ. Salvation is
a gift of God. No wealth, power, abil
ity on the part of man can bring about
regeneration. Jesus says, “l am the
way.” No man cometh to the Father
but by Me. In so speaking He gives
utterance to the words of one who has
authority.
A Secret Change.
In this world of telephones, tele
graphs, dictagraphs, phonographs, news
papers, cables, gossips, etc., it is hard
to keep a secret, but regeneration at
first is known only by the one who ex
gerlences the change, and by Geod, who
flng the chancos'e about. Jesus, in
<a?el ng to Nicodemus about the new
birth, says: “The wind bloweth where
ft listeth, and thou hearest the voice
thereof, but knowest not whence it
cometh nor whither it goeth; so is every
one that is born of the Spirit.” You
see the results of the wind. Evidences
are plentiful of the storm, In its wake
you see trees twisted from their stumps
and limbs hurled in every direction.
You see houses blown over. You hear
the sound thereof, but you know not
when it came, nor whither it goes.
Thus with the Spirit of God. The
work is done by a song, a prayer,
a word, a sermon directed by the Spirit
and the life of a man is made new;
the things that he once loved he now
hates; the thlngia that he once hated
he now loves. All things have changed.
Old things. are become new--desires,
will, loves, ambitions, hopes—all are
new wills and intentions because life
has been changed by the power of God.
Direct Ageney of Holy Ghost.
Look out there in the field as you
e:ss along. There is a man hoeing.
ith smooth, even strokes he cuts the
sprigs of grass and the bushes that
threaten to seriously injure the growing
plants, and at the same time he draws
the fertile, loamy soil up to the plants,
A beautiful work it is. You go home
and tell your wife about the perfectly
wonderful Scoville hoe. Its sharpness
and effectiveness is commented on; its
thin, shiny steel blade is praised, and
at length the wife, patiently listening,
says, ‘But, after all, the work was
done by the man and the hoe was
merely the instrument.” God's word is
the instrument. The Holy Spirit the
direct cause.
Lydia, that remarkable dealer in pur
ples, anl also in divine love, was glo
riously saved. Read Acts xvi:l4, “Whose
heart the Lord opened to give heed unto
the things which were spoken by Paul.”
There we see God working upon the
heart of Lydia. Also accompanying the
words of the great ngostle to the Gen
tiles. It is God who works in and
through us to do His good will. He is
the regeneration, we simply the instru
‘ments in his hand. He ls the motive
power, we the lines of connection.
| instantaneous.
~ Sanctification is a gradual work, a
\cotmnual growth. Regeneration is in
stantanevus. A child is born a perfect
‘child, but all the same it is a child. Not
\a. man, mind you, but a child. Sanc
tification is the development of life
commenced in regeneration. At once
'the work of regeneration is done. Peter,
on the day of Pentecost, preached to a
crowd of people designated as ones who
‘put to death the Lord of Glory. They
were sinners at the beginning of that
'day. They were saved at f{ts close.
Under the words of Peter, accompanied
by the Holy S{)lrh's power, they were
convicted of sin, confessed Christ as
their Saviour, were baptized into the
church, and instantaneously the work
was done. Read the Book of A¢ts and
you will see how these babes in Christ
grew into ‘stalwart men and women,
who, scattered abroad by persecution,
went everywhere preaching tne word,
and how, as they grew daily in the
grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Christ, they continued to bring others
to Him. After birth comes growth, and
finally, following growth, comes frui
tion. Lord make us all Thy children and
then make us faithful soul winners and
enable us to grow and work and de
velop until we shall awake in Thy like
ness.
