If it is ever done at all, my friends, it 'will be by having the disposition of Jeans Christ set down in the midst of our nature. I shall this morning discourse to yon about the disposition of the Lord In the first place the spirit of Jesns ss a spirit of gentleness. I know that sometimes He made wrathful ut terances against the hypocritie and the Pharisee; but for tha. most part His words and His demeanor were gentle, and laving, and kind, and patient, and inoffensive, and pleasant. When yon consider the fact that He hkd an omnip- potenco with which He might have of His alking and adding to yonrs. It was a lga£ journey to save you (i gue. It is lifting a heavy weight ordfi that yon might not be put to the iu. It is the substance of mv Juiusperity that there may l hum to yonr case and prosperity.
