1H) TH YSELFNO H ABM SUICIDE THE SUBJECT OF SEV. OR. TALMAQeS SERMO*. Declares That a Sana Man Who Takes His Own Use Is a Traitor to God— lafidoUty a Canoe of Self Bl»u*hter-Enter Ktor nity Thronch Oars OomnSMC fCopyrtarht, 1898, b j r at '^JJ’j rlcan PreM A ’*°* WASHINGTON, Joly 10.—This sermon of when bo many are leaving by <«t a* XVI 28 “Do thyself-’noharm.’’ 11 ere is a would tw suicide arrested in his deadly attempt. He was a,sheriff, and, according to tie Roman law, a t»Hlff hlrafelf must suffer the punishment due an escaped prisoner, and if the prisoner breaking jail was sentenced to be endun geoned for three or four years then the sheriff must be endungeoned for three or four years, and if the prisoner breaking jail was to have suffered capital punish ment- then the sheriff must staffer capital ■ punishment. The sheriff had received: especial charge to keeps sharp lookout for Paul and Silas. The government h*d DO* much confidence in bolts and bars to keep safe these twa clergymen, about whom there seemed to be something strange and supernatural. Sure enough, by yniraou lous.power, they are free, and faehherlff, waking out of a sound sleep and auppos ing these ministers have run away and knowing that they were to die for preach ing. Christ and realising that he must therefore die, rathep than go Under the executioner’s ax on the morrow and staffer public disgrace resolves to precipitate his ( own decease. But before the sharp, keen, glittering dagger of the sheriff could strike his heart one of the unloosened pris oners arrests the blade by the command, “Do thy self no harm.” Suicide Among the Ancients. In olden times and where Christianity had not interfered with it suicide was con sidered hpnorable and a sign of courage. Demosthenes poisoned himself when told ‘ that Alexander’s embassador had demand ed the surrender of the Athenian orators. Isocrates killed himself rather than sur render to Philip of Macedon. Cato, rather than submit to Julius Csesar, took his own life, and three times after his wounds had been dressed tore them open and per ished. Mithridates killed himself rather than submit to Pompey, the conqueror. Hannibal destroyed his life by poison from his ring, considering life unbearable. Ly curgus a suicide, Brutus a suioide. After the disaster of Moscow Napoleon always carried with him a preparation of poison, undone night his servant heard the ex emperor arise, put something in a glass and drink It, and soon after the groans aroused all the attendants, and it wail only through utmost medical skill that he was resuscitated. Times have changed, and yet the American coasciaMie need* to be toned up on the subject of suicid*. Have you seen a paper in the lart month that did not announce the passage oat'of life by one’s own behest? Defaulter*, alarmed at the idea of exposure, qult ilfe precipitately. Men losing large fortunes go out of the world because they cannot endure earthly existence. Frustrated af fection, domestic infelicity, dyspeptic im patience, anger, remorse, envy, jealousy, destitution, misanthropy, are considered sufficient causes for absconding from this fe by parts green, by laudanum, by IjM donna, by Othello’s dagger, by halter, leap from the abutment of a bridge, by earms. More cases of felo de se in the; st two years than any two years of the world’s existence, and more in the last month than in any 12 months. The evil is more and more spreading. A pulpit not long ago expressed some doubt as to whether there was really any thing wrong about quitting this life when it became disagreeable, and there an found in respectable circles people apologetic for the crime which Paul in the text arrested. I shall show you before I get through that suicide is the worst of all crimes, and I shall lift a warning unmistakable. But in the early part of this sermon I wish tc admit that some of the best Christians th*t have ever lived have committed self destruction, but always in dementia and not responsible. I have no more doubt about their eternal felicity than I have of the Christian who dies in his bed 'la fffa delirium of typhoid fever. While the shock of the catastrophe is very great, I charge all these who have had Christian friends under eerebral aberration step off the boundaries of this life to have no doubt about their happiness. The dear Lord took them right out of their dazed and frenzied state into perfect safety. How Christ feels toward the insane you may know from the way he treated the de moniac of Gadara and the child lunatic, ftnd the potency with which he hushed tempests either of sea or brain. Merciful Allowance. Scotland, the land prolific of intellectual giants, had none grander than Hugh Mil ler, great for science and great for God. He was an elder in St John’s Presbyte rian church. He came of the best highland blood and was a descendant of Donald Boy, a man emfppnt far piety and the rare gift of second sight His attainments, climbing up as he did from the quarry and the wall of the stonemason, drew forth the astonished admiration of Buck land and Murchison, the scientists, and - Dr. Chalmers, the theologian, and held universities spellbound while he told them the story of what he had seen of God in “TheOld Red Sandstone.” That man did more than any other being that ever lived to show that the God of tha httls fil th* God of the Bible, and he struek. his. tuning fork on the rocks of Cromarty until he brought geology and theology accordant in divine worship. His two books, enti tled “Footprints of the Creator” and “The Testimony of the Rocks,” proclaim - ed the banns, of an eveslastlng marriage between genuine scianca arid wmljfon On this latter book he tailed day and night, through lode of nature and love of God, until he could not. stew had hi* brain gave way, and be was found dead with a revolver by his side, the cruel In strument having had two bul)<B—one ter him and the other for the gunsmith whe j at the coroner’s inquest was examining it. and fell dead. Have you any doubt of the beatification of Hugh Miller after his. het brain had ceased throbbing that winter night in his study at Portobello? Among the mightiest of earth, among the mighti est of heaven. No one doubted the piety of William Cowper, the author of those three great ‘22.

While we make this merciful and right eous allowance in regard to those who were plunged into mental incoherence I declare that the man who in the use of his reason, by his own act, snaps the bond be tween hie. body and his soul, goes straight late perdition. Shall I prove it? Revela tion xxi, 8, “Murderers shall have their part In the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone.’’ Revelation xxii, 10, '‘Without ate dogs and sorcerers and whoremongers and murderers.” You do not belipve the New Testament? Then perhaps you believe the Ten Command ments, “Thou shalt not kin.” Do you w that all these passages refer to the tak ing of the life of others? Then I ask you if you are not as responsible tor your own life as for the Use of others? God. gave you a special trust in life and made you the custodian of your life, and he made you the custodian of no other life. He fenqrt wo arms to strike pack assailants, two eyes to watoh tin invasion, and a nat . fatal Idvb of Use whiah ought ever to be on tire alert. Assassination pt others is a mild.erima compared with the assassina tion of yourself, because In the latter case it is treachery to an especial trust. It is -the stranger of a castle you were especial ly appointed to keep. It is treason to a natural law, and it is treason to God added to ordinary murder. To show how God in the Bible looked Unoptiiftsmrime I point you to the rogues’ picture galjery in some parts of the Bible, 'She pictures Of-the people who have com mitted this unnatural crime. Here is the headless trunk of Saul on the walls of Bathshan. Here is a man who chased little David —10 feet in stature chasing 4. Here is the man who consulted a clairvoy ant, witch of finder. Here is a man who, whipped in battle, instead of surrendering his sword with dignity, as many a man has done, asks his servant to slay him, and when that servant declined, then the giant plants the hilt of his sword in the earth, the sharp point sticking upward, and he throws his body on it and expires—the coward, the suicide! Here is Ahltophel, the Machiavelli of olden times, betraying his bwt friend, David, in order that he may become prime minister of Absalom, ana joining that fellow In his attempt at pasriclde. Not getting what ha wanted by change of yefatis* he take* a ghort sfit fMt tat A disgnMeful life into the suicide’s eternity. There he is, the ingrate! ’’Hero is Abimelech, practically a suicide. He is with an army, bombarding a tower, when a woman in the tower takes a grind stone from it* place end drops it upon his head, and with what life he has left in his cracked skull he commands his armor bearer, “Draw thy sword and slay me, lest men say a woman dew me.” There is his post mortem photograph in the book of Samuel. But the hero of this group is Judas Is cariot. Dr. Donne say* he was a martyr, and we have in our day apologists for him. And what wonder, In this day when we have a book revealing Aaron Burr as a pattern of virtue, and this day when we uncover a statue of George Sand as the benefactress of literature, and fa tills day when there are betrayals of Christ on the part of some of his pretended apostles—a betrayal so black it makes the infamy of Judas Iscariot white! Yet this man by his own hand hung up for the execration of all ages, Judas Iscariot. Increase of Self Murder. All the good men and women of the Bi ble left to God the decision of their earthly terminus, and they could have said with Job, who had a right to commit suicide if smxT ipgufferuble carbuncles and everything people pelting him with comfortless talk while hp fits on aheap of ashes scratching hie amhawitha'yltae es broken pottery, yet crying out in triumph, “All the days of my appointed time will I wait till my change comes.” Notwithstanding the Bible is against this evil and the aversion which it creates by the loathsome and ghastly spectacle of those who have hurled themselves-out of lite, and notwithstanding Christianity is against it and arguments and the use ful lives and tire 111ustrieps deaths of its disciples, it U • fact alarmingly patent thatjsnleidata oa the increase. What is the cause? I Charge upon "infidelity and agnosticism tfas whole thing. If there be no hereafter, or if that hereafter be bliss fiil Without reference to how we live and how we di >vhy not move back the fold tag doors between this world and the next? ARff when our existence here be oonres troublesome why not pass right over into elysium? Put this down among your most solemn reflections. There has never been a case of suicide where the operator was not either demented and therefore irresponsible or an infideL I challenge all the ages and I challenge the universe. There never has been a case of self destraction while in full appreciation •. rs hisfajjjnortality and iff fae fact that that ImmortaUty <<»>d be glorious or wretched according as he accepted Jesus Christ or rejected him. You say it is a business trouble or you Say It is electrical currents or it is this or it Is that or it is the other thing. Why not go clear back, my frienp, and acknowledge that fa every case it 1* the abdication of reason or the teaching of InfHpMty, which practically says, “If you don’t like this life, get out of it, and you will land either in annihilation, where there are. no notes to pay, no persecutions to suffer, no gout to tiprment, or you will land where there will be eveiytklng glorious and nothing to pay tor it?’ Infidelity has always beefi apologetic fcnmett Immolation. After Tom Paine’* “Art,* Reason” was published «®d was a marked in- H«H« «< UadtotiaC. Ama in London heard Mr. Owen de liver hl* infidel lecture socialism and want home, sat drtwt and wrote these words, “Jesus Christ is one of the weakest characters fa history, and the Bible is the greatest possible deception,” and then shot himself. David Hume wrote these words: “It would be no crime for me to divert the Nile or the Danube from its natural bed. Where, then, can be the crime in my diverting a few drops of blood froffi their ordinary otefifeif ’ And, haf* lug written the essay, ho loaned it to a friend, the friend rend it, wrote a letter at thanks and admiration and nhot himself. Appendix to the same book. Rousseau, Voltaire, Gibbon, Montaigne, were apologetic for self Immolation. In fidelity puts up no bar to people rushing out from this world Into the next. They teach us it does not make any difference how you live here or go out of thia world. You will land either In an oblivious no where or a glorious somewhere. And In fidelity holds the upper end of the repe for the suicide and alms the pistol with which a man blows his brains out and mixes the strychnine for the last swallow. If Infidel ity could carry the day and persuade the majority of people fa this country that it docs not make any difference how you go out of this world you will land safely, the Potomac would be se full of corpses the boats would bo impeded In their progress, and the crack of the suicide's pUtol would be ne more alarming than the rumble of a street car. I have sometimes heard it discussed whether the groat dramatist was a Chris tian or not. He was a Christian. In his last will and testament he commends his soul to God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I know that he considered appre ciation of a future existence the mightiest hindrance to self destruction: For who would bear the whips and acerns of time, The appresser’s wrong, the proud man’s con tumely, The pang* of despised love, the law’s delay, The insolence of office and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin ? Who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death 1 — The undiscovered country from whose bourne No traveler returns—puzzles the will? Would God that the coroners would be brave fa rendering the right verdict, and when in a case of irresponsibility they, say, “While this man was demented he took kis life," in the other case say, “Hav ing.read Infidel books and attended, infidel lectures, which obliterated from this man’s mind all appreciation of future retribution, he committed self slaughter. ” Religion’* Bright Light. Have nothing to do with an infidelity so cruel, so debasing. Come out of that bad company Into the company of those who believe the Bibl& Benjamin Franklin wrote, “Os this Jesus of Nazareth I have to say that the system of morals he left and the religion he has given us are the best things the world has ever seen or is likely to see. ” Patrick Henry, the electric champion of liberty, says, “The book worth all other books nut together is the Bible.” Benjamin Rush, the leading physiologist and anatomist of kis day, the great medical scientist—what did he say? “The only true and perfect religion is Christianity.” Isaac Newton, the leading philosopher of his time—what did he say? “The sublimest philosophy on earth is the philosophy of the gospel.” David Brew ster, at the pronunciation of whose name every scientist the world over bows his head—David Brewster saying, “Oh, this roligien ha* bean a great figfeb to ms, a very great light all my days.' ’ Piwment Thiers, the great French statesman, ac knowledging that he prayed when he sold, “I invoke the Lord God, in whom lam glad to believe.” David Livingstone, able to conquer the Hon, able to conquer the panther, able to conqfler the savage, yet conquered by this religion, so when they find him dead they find him on his knees. Salmon P. Chase, chief justice of the supreme court of the United States, ap pointed by President Lincoln, will take the witness stand. “Chief Justice Chase, please to state what you have to say about the book commonly called the Bible.” The witness replies: “There camo a time fa my life when I doubted the divinity of the Scriptures, and I resolved as a lawyer and judge I would try the book as I would try anything fa the courtroom, taking evi dence for and against. It was a long and serious and profound study, and, using the same principles of evidence fa this reli gious matter as I always do In secular mat ters, I have come to the decision that the Bible Is a supernatural book, that It has come from God, and that the only safety for the human race is to follow its teach ings.” “Judge, that will do. Go back again to your pillow of dust on the banks of the Ohio.” Next I put upon the wit ness stand a president of the United States—John Quincy Adams. “President Adams, what have you to say about the Bible and Christianity?” The president replies: “I have for many years made it a practice to read through the Bible once a year. My custom is to read four or five chapters every morning immediately after rising from my bed. It employs about an hour of my time and seems tomathemost suitable manner of beginning the day. In what light soever we regard the Bible, whether with reference to revelation, to history or to morality, it is an invaluable and inexhaustible mine of knowledge and virtue.” “Chancellor Kent, what do you think of the Bible?” Answer: “No other book ever addressed Itself so authorita tively and so pathetically to the judgment and moral sense of mankind.” “Edmund Burke, what do you think of the Bible?” Answer: “I have read the Bible, morn ing, noon and night and have ever since been the happier and the better man for such reading. ” Sentence of Infidelity, Young men of America, come out of the circle of infidels—mostly made up of cranks and Imbeciles—into the company of intellectual giants and turn your back on an infidelity which destroy* body and soul. Ah, infidelity, stand up and take thy sentence! In the presence of God, angels and men, stand up, thou monster! Thy Up blasted with blasphemy, thy cheek scarred with uncleanness, thy breath foul with the corruption of the ages! Stand up, satyr, filthy goat, buzzard of the na tions, leper of the centuries! Standup, thou monster, infidelity! Part man, part panther, part reptile, part dragon, stand up and take thy sentence! Thy hands red with the blood in which thou hart washed, thy feet crimson with the human gore through which thou hast waded, stand up and take thy sentence! Down with thee to the pit and sup on the sobs and groans of those thou hast destroyed and let thy music be the everlasting miserere of these whom thou hart ifanned! I bzand the forehead of Infidelity with all the crimes of self Immolation for the last century on the part of those who had their reason. My friends, if ever your life, through Its abrasions and its molestations, should seem to be unbearable, and you are tempt ed to quit it by your own behest, do not consider yourself as worse than others. Christ himself was tempted to cast him self from the roof of the temple, but as he resisted so resist ye. Christ came to medi cine all wounds. In your trouble I pre scribe life instead of death.
