hills of sobriety disappear the
waves of destruction begin to break
over him. The whistling .blasts ot
poverty make awful music in his
ears. The ragings of the storm dis
tract his dreams of pleusure and be
fore a great while he is being
tossed to and fro. An unmanageable
wreck upon this storm tossed sea ot
ruin. To sight unwary youth to the
j dangev of the sea of intemperance is
| the object of this lesson. As we en
ter into this discussion may we ask
that you give it your serious and
undividd attention. We need not stop
to pro-ve that our young men need
caution upon this subject. It is a
fact that temperance reformation
has laid its heavy blo-ws upon the
sides of the dominion of King Alco
hol. His dark infernal empire still
stands. His throne has not been
| toppled. The frowning fortress from
which he hurls firebrands, arrow*
and death still lifts its front in the
communion can be had from -the di-
vine,kindness means the “soft ans
wer.” Then came goodness. It is
hard to distinguish between goodness
and kindness. We wight state tho
that goodness means active, visible
manifestations ami exercise of the
virtue of kindness. Faithfulness. It
i very esscnitial. This means fidelity
to a trust tliat has been given you
on one hand, and on the othei hand
an- exercise of faith in others One is
the outgrowth of the other.
Let any person cultavate one good
trait and we will be surprised at
how .many other good ones will spring
from it.
Our Duty
While we denounce the vice of in
temperance lets endeavor to do some
thing for the victims. While w-e re

A Christian's Duty to Be Separated
From the iWorks /of Darkness
We read in Romans 13-12, “The

Christ's first advent into the world,
when the ignorance and heathenism

closed in our face. Unrighteousness
is the summing up of all vices.
In the following verses of Paul he
warn® the Corinthians that those
who are guilty of such sins cannot
inheirt a home in God’s kingdom.
“Be not deceived neither fornicators
nor idolaters, nor effeminate, nor
abusers of themselves with men nor
thieves nor coveteous, nor drunkards
nor revelers, nor extortioners, shall
inherit the kingdom of God. We also
notice in these verses that the state
ment is positive that the drunkard
shall not inherit the kingdom of
heaven. Paul here just enumerated
the sins as they appeared to him in
the city of Corinth.
Penalties
We must be perfectly frank to ad
mit that sins and vice® that we in
dulged in before we were converted
do not drop out of olr life, blit must
be deliberately put away. This may
not mean a great struggle and again
it may, but it does mean recognition
of being no longer allowable in tne
life of the redeemed. But ye were
sanctified, but yo were justified.
What do we .mean by being sancti
fied? We would be correct most
likely to say that sanettned means

which we turn a deaf ear to the call
of the flesh but that we shall not be
slaves to the leadership of the flesh.
We are not to carry this leadership
to the exitreme. Make our lives con
form to he dictates of the Holy |
S|/>irit, and not to the desires of the j
the outer mam.
We .might make the following ]
classification of the vices mentioned i
I. Sensual vices; 2. Religious viceB
connected with heathenism; 3. .male
volent vices; 4. vices of excess of
intemperance. The one we are today
especially interested im. We are
plainly assured that if we engage in
intemperance we can not inherit the
kingdom of God. Mam’s mission in
this wtorld' if he makes a successful
advent and desires and living in the
world. If we engage in intemperance
we have marie a failure according to
the scriptures of our sojourn in this
world. These other enumerated sins
wil also keep us from inheriting the
kingdom of God. Then answer this
question dear reader: Why will a
saved human 1 being squander an
eternal inheritance in God's king
dom for a day’s pleasure in this
world? While one can be far hap
pier by heeding the call of the Holy
Spirit than by heeding the call of the
flesh which in the end will lead us
not only to death but to eternal
ruin.
Some /of the Tests of Divine
Leadership
Love stands first. It is permanently
the root of all other grace®. Love
for God and love for our fellowman.
This is opposed to all sorrow caused
by the works of the flesh. This is
the spring of misery. It is joy in
the Ho-ly Spirit where we cam hold
communication with the Heavenly
Father. Peacq, This ds first peace
with God which was the Saviour's
gift to us. This peace ieade us to a
perfect tranquility in the heart, be
cause the whole life is under tho di
