DR. CHAPMAN’S SEtiMUN
A SUNDAY DISCOURSE BY THE NOTED
PASTOR.EVANGELIST.
tabiect: From Bel he! to Bethel—Thirty
Years of Tim© Between the Two—Var
ied Experience? o* Jacob—Where Waj
Your Bethel?—Pray as You Used T.
Niw York Citt.—The Rev. Dr. ,T. Wil
bur Chapman, the popular pastor-evangel
ist, who is now preaching to overflowing
congregations in this city, has furnished
the following eloquent sermon to the
press. It. was preached from the text
"Let us arise and go up to Bethel.” Gene
sis 35: 3.
I doubt not you have frequently seen the
kv when throughout, a long day it ha
been overcast with clouds, only new and
then the sun would break forth hut for a
moment and then the curtain would he
drawn together once more and only the
clouds were to he seen. To me thv. is an
illustration of the life of Jacob. The sun
breaks through at Bethel, and while this
seems to be a mixing of figures, for the
hour of the \ Lion was in the night, yet the
glory of heaven was upon him brighter
than the shining of the sun. Tv pushes
its way through at Peuiel. once more
appears in his pathetic love for Joseph,
and later in his dignified appearance in the
presence of Pharaoh, but for the most
part his was a life with a cloudy sky. and
yet there are few stories more interesting.
What Peter is to the New Testament
Jacob is to the Old. The P.ible would
hardly be complete without the accounts
of these two remarkable men. When we
read of the "Saviour of Peter” we are
'•mnforted, for we find ourselves saving.
"If Jesus can save such a man as Peter,
transforming him from the fisherman to
tlie preacher, from the profane man to the
writer of Kpjstles, there is hope for every
one ®f us.” We read about the “God of
Jacob” and are inspired, for there arc few
of us to-day whose lives are so deceitful,
whose characters are so questionable as
Jacob’s, and yet he became Israel the
Prince. Is anything too hard for the
Lord ?
Prom Bethel la Bethel is a good subject
growing out of such a text. Thirty years
x of time stretch out between the two ex
/ perierices, and vet in these thirty years
Jacob passes through much that is beyond
'lnordinary interest, as, for example, his ex-
Jpaerienoes with T.aban, when he toiled four
teen years for his belayed Rachel, the pros
perity which came to him both by fair
means and foul. Lis struggling with the
angel at Jabbok’s Ford, and his tarrying
at Shechem contrary to the command of
God. for in it all lie was never satisfied,
for T hold it true that if one has once been
to Bethel nothing else can satisfy, and if
we have ever had a vision of heaven the
I earth ever afterward seems dull and unin
-8 terest ing.
-After all this varied experience Jacob is
"at Bethel onee again. It is not much in
’itself, just a long range of hills running
north and south, the eastern slope de
§ scending to the Jordan and the western
•f slope stretching away toward the more
thickly populated part if the country.
Through the valley befc e us illustrous
travelers in all the history of the Holy
Land have made their journey, and up the
rough mountain road people.have climbed
with great delight. There is no house is
sight and no animals are to be seen ex
cepting now and then an eagle or a wild
mountain goat, hut to Jacob it. was a sa
cred place. There the ‘first night of his
flight from Esau he saw the ladder which
linked earth U heaven, the ladder which
was thronged with angels performing their
heavenly ministry, and he heard the voice
•Y Ged. There are some words we cannot
snemk withoui\aronsing the tenderest emo
tions and the Hfolie.it; memories. Mother
'- such mi one. I well remember preach
ing 1 o n crowd of rough miners in the
mountains, holding their interest passably
well until I spoke this matchless name,
when all faces were softened and tears
were seen in many eyes. Home is another
such word. You doubtless remember the 1
soldiers at Sebastopol, brave men wjio
were ready to die, many of whom did die.'
bursting into tears ns they heard the
band of musicians playing “Home, Sweet
Home,” and bethel was such a word to
•Jacob. Jt stirred the best that was in him.
and was the summons of God bidding his
better nature to arouse itself.
We have all of us had our Bethels. Some
cf ns are separated from them by the
dreary lapse of time, and between those
happy days and our present unsatisfactory
experience days, weeks, months and even
years stretch out, we say it to our shame.
For some of us an active business life has
separated us from Bethel, and vet this is
positively unnecessary. “Not slothful in
business, fervent in spirit, serving the
Lord,” and if there is anything in your
business that dampens your spiritual ar
dor, er blinds your vision of Christ, either
your business is wrong or you are wrong
yourself.
With some a foreign residence lies be
tween us and Bethel. Back in the old
country we were most faithful and devoted
to Christ and constantly serving the
church, but in this free land we have for
gotten our vows, we have made the fata!
mistake of leaving God out of our calcula
tions, and somehow seem to forget the
words of the Psalmist, “If I take the wings
•f the morning and dwell in the uttermost
parts of the earth and the sea Thou art
there.” We might have been in fellowship
with God all these days if we would.
With some of us it is worldliness that
has dimmed our vision and robbed us of
power, and that is the sad part of the
story. Obligations once taken upon us
hare been overlaid and buried with the
lapse of years, and I would like if 1 might
to touch the harp of memory and bring
back those happy days once more when
eur vision of Christ was unclouded, our
appropriation of the spirit of God com
plete and our joy inexpressible, so there
fore- 1 say. “Let us arise and go to Bethel.”
I would like to carry*you back perhaps a
quarter of a century when you left your
home like Jacob and you said, “If God
will I will.” All these years He has hern
near to you pouring out upon you His best
blessings. I ask you, have you kept your
vow? Many Christians suffer from spirit
ual declension; they scarcely realize it. the
stupor has come on so gradually, and it is
only on a day like this when they compare
what they are with what they since were
that they realize their dangerous position.
We do not come to be like Judas in a day
or even like Peter, but we leave our Lord
by inches, some little sin creeps in at
which we smile to-day, but which defeats
us to-morrow, and we are out of tune, we
haTe lost our power, we are not what we i
want to be ourselves, and if our heart con-1
demn us God is greater than our heart i
and knoweth all things. We need, there- !
fare, to go back to Bethel.
Where was your Bathe!? Perhaps in ;
tome little church where on a certain oc- ]
casion you fofgot the minister and the one 1
sitting by yout side and had a vision of j
glory, or in some home where poverty,
abounded, but you were utterly unmindful
•f it. The house was filled with heaver. I
Mid down to every pillow was sent the lad- |
Per up and down which angels of God |
■sade their wav. Or it may have been in j
ictie other ’and where you had a vision j
.-f God, and while we may not make the !
jaurney back to these places in the fie=h
ire can go back in thought and meet Him.
Sfcall we not do so? As many ns God
loves He reminds constantly of neglected
duties, sometimes using conscience, some
times His providences; to-day in the loss of
property He speaks, to-morrow in the de
parture of health, again in the death of a
friend. 'lt would be a good thing if wo
should stop and listen to His warning and ,
mAb arise and go to Bethel.
I.
Some preliminary steps Before we may
ever expect to go back to the place of
b.easing it will be necessary for us to ob
serve the instructions which Jacob gave
to his household.
first. "Put away the strange gods," thst
is. literally, “the God of the strangers.”
lhev have been living with the enemies of
God’s people, and little by little the gods
of these people had gotten possession of
them. They were taken into their tents
and then into their hearts, and they were
out of fellowship with God. Wherever
there is a fungus growth in the forests
there is corruption and decay, wherever
there is an idol :u the heart there is a
fresh indication of weakness, and we can
not hide our idols; they refuse to he hid
den. When we least expect it there is a
. resurrection.
j IVhat is an idol? It may he a very little
! thing. That which tends to usurp an un-
I due place in our affections, which gives us
more pleasure than the thought of God. is
lan idol. The thing in our life which makes
us sacrifice nearness to God, which may
not necessarily be sinful, only questionable,
is an idol. That which make us indiffer
ent to spiritual advantages and indifferent
to Bethel is an idol. Your reputation,
your fortune, that unworthy friend upon
whom you lavish your affection, these may
he idols, for "no man can serve two mas
i lets, for either he will hate the one and
love the other, or will cleave to the one
and depart from the other.” Therefore
put away the strange gods, and if we really
want to he near to God how' easy it will
be to find out the thing that hinders us.
and yet as a matter of fact who can put
away his idols? I cannot, f am sure, but
there is a deliverance. Do you remember
the story of David and Nathan, when-Da
vid forgets that he is a king and a father
and sins, and Nathan is tlie messenger of
God who comes to rebuke him with the
touching story of the ewe lamb. When
David acknowledges his sin Nathan imme
diately responds, "The Lord also hath put
v away th.v sin.” and there is in this expres
sion a reference to the scapegoat of the
Old Testament on the day of Atonement,
when the priest confessed the sins of the
people, and the goat was represented as
staggering away under the load of Israel's
sins, down through the valley, up the
mountain yonder until he is lost to sight,
and then finally, according to tradition is
pushed over into the abyss where no man
is. He can out away our sins on whom
the Lord hath laid our iniquity.
Second, be clean. This refers to inner
cleanness, which is only brought about bv
the indwelling of Christ. God puts away
our sins, it is true, when He forgives us,
but it is one thing to be set right concern
ing the guilt of sin and ouite another tiling
to be set free from the pollution of sin. This
second privilege is ours when Christ comes
in to dwell with ns. We are very much
afraid of the word “holiness,” in preach
ing and teaching, yet wo have as much of
holiness as we have of Christ, no more or
no loss. J>et us be clean in heart. This is
possible by the word of God which is
cleansing in its very touch. Let us be
clean in what we sav. making a covenant
with Christ to guard our Jips. asking Him
to keep our eyes. Let us not do the things
that will grieve the spirit, remembering
that God can onlv use that which is clean.
Third, let us change our garments. This
must refer to the outward practices of our
life; in other words, our habits. What is
the garment we are wearing to-day? With
some of us it is a robe of our own weaving,
the robe of selfishness and pride, and mark
you this, where self comes into a life Christ
passes out. There is another robe which
we may wear to-day woven in the loom of
heaven bearing the red mark of the blood
of Christ.
I traveled the other day with a mission
ary from Wisconsin, who told me how he
had teacbed a drunken man in the woods
of Wisconsin, told hirt the story of Christ
and won him. and lAfrir had the joy of re
pjei' itir-4he man ati* He six members of
his household into i.’ih' fellowship of the
church. When Noah entered the ark his
family went with him. Let os arise and
go up to Bethel.
11.
Result?. In the Mil verse we read tfi'.i
the people were afraid of Jacob and his
company, for the terror of the Lord was
upon them. Matthew Henry has said that
when sin was in Jacob’s house he was
afraid of his neighbors, but when the
idols were put away his neighbors were
afraid of him. When shall we learn the
lesson that we haVe power over men by
the way of God. The world does not fear
a worldly Christian, nor does the devil,
and we need expect no triumph over men
until we have prevailed with God first.
Second. God appeared and talked with
Jacob. This we read in verses nine and
ten. Of course no man can see God as He
is and live. Moses asked this of God and
lie said. “I will put thee in the cleft of
the rock and cover thee with My hand
while I pass by.” and lie saw the glory of
the garments of God and His face did
shine, but we can see Christ, and when we
behold Him in His tenderness with little
children and His ministering to the sick
and suffering everywhere we hear Him
say. ‘He that hath seen Me hath seen My
Father also.” God still speaks to us; if
we did but have our ears open we should
find Him speaking in nature. I can remem
ber as a boy out in the country putting
my cars up against the telegraph pole and
listening to what I was told was the
whirr of the messages flashiinr from city to
city, and I used to wonder if it might be
possible for some one to hear what might,
even then be passing through the air. and
now to-day we have accomplished this in
the wireless telegraphy, and if we did hut
have our ears open I am sure that with
every rising sun, with every running
stream, with every singing bird, with every
thing in nature we should hear God speak.
And He speaks to us in the Bible, but the
difficulty with us is that we have not
faith. It has long been my desire to own
one of the large old-fashioned clocks used
by our forefathers, and recently it became
possible for me to gain possession of one.
The works are . perfect, the pendulum is
perfect, and the whole clock is a thing of
beauty, and I started it, but the pendulum
would swing for a moment and then stop,
and I thought I had made a poor bargain
in the purchase of my clock, but at last I
discovered there was a little catch by
means of which the pendulum was united
to the works, and I started the clock once
more, and it is keeping perfect time. Here
is this Old Book truer than ever, if that
were possib’e. certainly more precious than
ever. We have called it uninteresting: we
have let it alone when we might have been
listening to its heaven born messages, none
other than the voice of God, if we had but
had faith. God said to Jacob, "I am God
Almighty.” and that was enough for Him
to sav. “I will walk with thee.” “If God
he for us who can he against us?”
Third, in this ff-Mb chapter of Genesis are
four burials. There i.s the burial of the
idols, the burial of Deborah, the burial of
Rachel and the burial of Isaac. Tt is a
r-haoter of sorrow, but what a difference
Bethel must have made in tho wav that
sorrow was endimed. I stood not long
ago in the home of a man whose chib] was
dead, and I heard him say. although he
had opoe been a Christian, that he all but
hated God. and I rerail another experience
where a woman with a breaking heart aid
with the tegrs flowing down her face that
was shinint’. “The Lord gave and He hath
taken away.” and she was dwelling at
Bethel. It is a beadtifu! thing to know
that over the bodv of Isaac. Esau and
Jacob c’asped hands and were united once
mere. If we did hut live at Bethel old dif
ferences wonM be put away, trying expe
riences would be easily met. Come, let us
arise and go to Bethel. \Ve have all of us
had Bethel expediences, so let us go back
and prav as we used to pray, work as we
used to work and preach as we used to
preach, and the heavens will be opened
above us.

BLACK WALNUT.
Wood That Has Become To Valuable
to be Used, as Once, for Fence Rails.
The best black walnut in the United
States is found in Indiana. Forty
years ago there could be found in this
State, a crop of black walnut unequal
led in quantity and quality. Today it
is not to bo found in such immense
trees. Neither is the number of trees
Iby any means so numerous. Years
| ago the largest and best trees were
j used for fence mils and such common
j purposes. At that time it had no par
ticular commercial value. Before wal
nut came into general use, the most
of domestic furniture was of cherry.
Walnut has now entirely superseded
this and all other woods. Fence rails
can be found today through Indiana
that were split more than half a cen
tury age, amt they are as sound now
as then, save the wear and tear. Of
all hard woods the walnut is most dur
able, save red cedar, and possibly in
the ground, black locust would equal
it.
Our walnut is comparatively gone.
In isolated parts of the country, where
this timber grows, t-here is yet some
of inferior quality, but to a limited ex
tent. But the general black walnut
growing in the deep fqrest, in the rieh
lowlands, in it-s primitive nature, is a
thing of the past. The general sup
ply must now be gathered from the
four quarters of the earth to supply a
demand that requires a century for its
culmination witnesses the astounding
spectacle of the almost entire extinc
tion of the valuable material,
Kentucky has quite a good stock of
black walnut, and much that is very in
ferior on account of its grey color and
tough, hard texture. Missouri also
has some of rather an inferior quality.
Western Ohio and West Virginia is
poor in quality.
Tile whole stock of the states is not
equal to a full demand for ten years
to come. Furniture manufacturers
do not now use it as lavishly as they
did five years ago. Other woods are
substituted when possible, and 1,000
feet of walnut are to go as fkr
again as it did a few years ago.
Chicago uses annually in her differ
ent branches of manufacture, such as
house, school and office furniture, also
in finishing material, doors, mouldings,
counters. &c., 14.500.000 feet. Prob
ably about half of this is bought at
the mills, and does not go into the ac
count of the dealers at all. Many of
the largest manufacturers direct, or
have mills or an interest in, mills in
the walnut district. —Terre Haute
Gazette.
