were castle*, armed towers, Roman baths,
everything attractive and beautiful, all

in almost any space in all

It seemed as if the Lord had launched

Not a leaf winked in the air, not a ripple

nor clipper with valuable merchandise, nor
piratic vessels ready to destroy everything
they could sej/.e, hut a flotilla, hearing mes¬
senger* of Jjfe and light ami peace, Christ
is In the front of the boat. Ills disciples
arc in a smaller boat. Jesus, weary with
much somnolence speaking to large multitudes, is put
into by the rocking of the
waves, if there was any motion at all,
the ship was easily righted; if the wind
passed larboard from one side,, from t he starboard to
the «>r from the larboard to the
starboard, the boat would rock, and by the
gentleness of the motion putting the Mas¬
ter asleep, Ami they extemporized a pil¬
low made out of a fisherman's coat,
think no sooner Is Christ prostrate and Ills
head touching the pillow than He is sound
asleep, Thu breezes of the lake run their
Angers through tho looks of t he worn sleep¬
er, and the bout rises and falls ‘ike a sleep¬
ing child on the bosom of a sleeping moth-
m.
Calm night . starry night, beautiful
night. J Run up all the sails, ply all
the oars, and let the large boat and the
small boat glide over gentle Gennesaret.
But t he sailors say there Is going to be a
change of weather. And even the passen¬
gers can hear t he moaning of tho storm as
It e«»mcs on with long stride, with all the
terrors of hurricane ami dnrkue tin. The
large boat trembles like a deer at, bay
i remhling among the clangor of t he hounds;
g. »*at patches of foarn are flung into the
air; the sails of the vessels loosen, and the
sharp wind# crack like pistols; the smaller
Boats like petrels poise on the cliff of th*
waves and then plunge. Overboard go
cargo, tackling and masts, aud the
drenched disciples rush into the hack part
the boat ami lay hold of Christ and say
unto Him, "Master, rarest thou not that
we perish? ’ That great personage lifts
hi* head from tho pillow of the fisherman's
emit, walks to the front of the vessel and
look* out into the storm. All around him
ate the smaller boats, driven in tho temp¬
est and through It comes the cry of drown¬

Looking upward, lie cries, ••peace!" Rook¬
ing downward, lie says, "Be still! ’
Tho waves fall flat on their faces, the
foam melts, the extinguished stars relight,
their torches, the tempest falls dead, and
Christ stands with Ills foot on the neck of
the storm. And while the sailors are bail¬
ing out the boats und While they are trying
to untangle the cordage t he disciples stand
Hi amazement, now looking Into the calm
sea, then into the calm sky, then into tin
calm of the Saviour'* countenance, and
they cry out, "Wliat manner of man Is lids,
that even tlm winds aud tbescaohey Him?”
The with subject in the first place Impresses
me the fact that it is very important
to have Christ in the ship, for all those
Boats would have gone to the bottom of
Cemi<met il Christ had not been present.
Oh, wliat a lesson for you and for mo to
learn! Whatever voyage we undertake, in*
tu whatever enterprise we start, let us al¬
ways have Christ In the ship. Many of you
ill these days of revived commerce are
starting out lu new financial enterprises. I
bid vou good ‘beer. Ho all you '-an do.
l>o it on as high a plane as possible. You
have no right to be a stoker in the ship if
vou can be an admiral of the navy. You
have no right to he a colonel of a regiment
if you can command a brigade; you have
no right to be engineer of a boat on river
banks or near the coast if you can take the
ocean steamer from New' York to Liver¬
pool. All you can do with utmost, tension
of body, mind and soul, you arc bound to
do; but, oh, have Christ in the enterprise,
Christ in every voyage, Christ In every
shin!
There are men who ask God to help them
at the start of great enterprises, lit* has
been with them in the past. No trouble
can overthrow them. The storms might
tforoo d<»\vn from the top of Mount Hermon
und lush Gennesaret Into foam and into
agony, but it could not hurt them. But
here i* another man who start* out in
worldly enterprise, and he depends upon
the uncertainties of this lifo. He lias no
God to help him. Alter awhile the storm
comes and tosses off the masts of the ship.
He puts out his lifeboat. The sheriff and
the auctioneer try to help him off. They
can Christ t help him oft. Ho must go down no
in the ship. Here are voting men
just starting out in life. Your life will he

smoothly, hovers but after awhile, wheu sorrow
over the soul, when the waves ot
trial dash clear over the hurricane deck
and the bowsprit Is shivered and the hal¬
yards nre swept into the sea aud the gang¬
way is crowded with piratical disasters
oh. what would you then do without
Christ in the ship? Young man, take God
for your portion. help, God for your guide, God
for v.'ur then all is well all is well
for time, all shall Vie well forever. Blessed
Is that man who puts in the Lord his trust.
Ii*' shall never he confounded.
But my subject also impresses me with
the fact that when people start to follow
thrist they must not expect smooth sailing.
These disciples got into the small boats,
and 1 have no doubt they said "What a
beautiful day this is 1 What a smooth son!
What a bright sky this is! How delightful
is sailing in this boat: And as for the
waves under the keel of the boat, wiry,
they only make Ihe motion of our little
boat the more delightful. ltut when the
winds swept down aud the sea was tossed
into wrath, then they found that following

have found it; so 1 have found it. Did

that if overmen ought to have had a smooth

The question was risked, "Who arc those
nearest the throne?" and the answer came
hack, "These are they who crime up out of
great tribulation" "great flailing." as the
original has it; great (tailing, great pound¬

do not bo disheartened! O child of God
take courage! Yon are in glorious com¬
panionship. God will vou through all

My subject also impresses mu* with the
fact that good people sometimes get very
much frightened. In the tones of these
disciples bout an they find rushed hey into the frightened hack part al¬
of the I t are
most to death. They sav, ".Master, car *st
Thou not that we perish?" They had no
reason to he frightened, for Christ was in
the boat. I suppose if wc had been th'*re
we would have been just as much affright¬
ed. Perhaps more.
In all ages very gool people get very
much affrighted, h is often so in our
day, and men say: "Why. look at the bad
lector's: look at the spiritualistic socie¬
ties; look at the various errors going over
the church of Go I. We are going to foun¬
der; the church Is going to perish; she is
going down.” Oh, how many goo I people
are affrighted by triumphant iniquity in
our day and think the church of Jesus
Christ and tlio cause of righteousness are
going to he overthrown and are just, as
much affrighted a* the disciples of mv text
were affrighte 1. Don't worry, don’t fret,
as though iniquity were going to triumph
over righteousness.
A lion goes into a cavern to sleep. He
lies down, with Ills shaggy mane covering
the paws. Meanwhile the spiders spin a
web across the mouth of the cavern and
say, "We have captured him." Gossamer
Hire,ad after gossamer t hread is spun until
the whole front of the cavern is covered
with t lie spiders’web and the spiders say,
"The Hon is done; the lion is fast." After
awhile the lion has got through sleeping,
lie rouses himself, he shakes Ids mane, lie
walks out into the sunlight, he does not
even know the spiders’ web is spun, and
with his voice he shakes the mountain.
Ho men come, spinning their sophistries
and skepticism about Jesus Christ. He
seems to lie sleeping. They say: "Wc have
captured the Lord. Ho will never come
forth again upon the nation. Christ is cap¬
tured, and captured forever. His religion
will never make any conquest, among men’."
Rut after awhile the "lion of the tribe of
Judah" will rouse himself and oomo forth
to shake mightily the nations. What is a
spider’s web to the aroused lion? Give
truth and error a fair grapple, and truth
will come off victor.
But there are a great many good people
who get affrighted in other respects. They
urn affrighted in our day about revival*.
They sav. "Oh, this is a strong religions
gab*! We nre afraid the church of God is
going to upset, and there are going to be a
great many people brought Into the church
that are going to he of no use to it." And
they are affrighted whenever they see a re¬
vival taking hold of the churches.
A* though ashlp captain with 5000 bush¬
els of wheat, for a cargo should say some
day. coming upon deck, " Throw overboard
all the cargo,”and the sailors should say,
" Why. captain, tho what do you mean? Throw
over all cargo?” "Oh," says the cap¬
tain, "we have a peek of chaff’that has got
into this 5000 bushels of wheat, and the
only wav to get rid of the chaff is to throw
all the wheat overboard." Now, that is a
great deal wiser than the talk of a great
many Christians who want to throw over-
hoard all the thousands ami tens of thou-
sands of souls who have been brought, in
through great awakenings. Throw all
overboard because there is u peck of chaff,
a quart of chaff, a pint of chaff! I say, let
them stay until tin* last day. The Lord
will divide the chaff from the wheat.
Oh. that these gales from heaven might
sweep through all our churches! Oh. for
such days as Richard Baxter saw in Lug-
hind and Robert Mct'hevnc saw in Dundee!
Oh, f.*r such days as Jouathun Edwards
saw I,. \oHlmm,.t.u,! I have often h.ar.l
my father tell of the fact that in the early
part, of thi* century a revival broke out in
Somerville, N. J.. and some people were
very much agitated about it. They said,
"Oh, you arts going to bring too many
people into the church at once!" and
iImv sent down to New Hrunswiek i" K"t
Johu l.lvIngHtoi. to slop ttm n-sIval WsIi,
there was no better soul in all the
world than John Livingston, lie went
up; In* looked at the revival. They
wanted him to stop it. He stood in the
pulpit on the Sabbath and looked over
the solemn auditory, and he said: "This,
brethren, is tu reality the work ot God.
Beware how you try to stop it, Aud he
was an old man, leaning heavily ou his
staff a very old man. And ho lifted that
staff and took hold of the small end of the
staff and began to let it fall very slowly
through between the linger and tho thumb,
aud he said, "Oh, thou impenitent, thou
art falling now falling from life, falling
away from peace aud heaven, falling as
certainly as that cane is falling
through my hand falling certainly, slowly!”
And though perhaps falling very through
the cane kept on falling
John Livingston's hand. The religious
emotion lu the audience was overpow¬
ering. und men saw a type of their doom
nsthc * anc kept falling and fulling until
the knob of the cane struck Mr. Living¬
stons hand, aud he clasped It stoutly aud
sold: "But the grace of God oau stop you,
as t stopped that eaue," and then there
was gladness all through the house at the
fact, of pardon and peace and salvation.
"Well." said the people after the service,
"l guess you had better scud Livingston
home. He is making the revival worse."
Oh, for the gales of heaven; aud of‘the Christ on
hoard the ship! The danger church
of God is not in revivals.
Again, my subject impresses me with the
fact that Jesus was God and man lu the
same being, lit-re he 1~ in the back part
of tile boat. Oh, bow tired ho looks, what
sad dreams he must have! Look at his
countenance. He must he thinking of the
cross to come. Look at him. Ho is a man
bone ot our bone, flesh of our flesh.
Tired, he lulls asleep; ho is a man. But
then 1 find Christ at the prow of the boat.
V bear Yiim sav. "Pea’e. be still!” And 1
see the storm kneeling at His fee; ami the
tempests folding their wings in His pres¬
ence. He is a God.
If 1 have sorrow aud trouble and want
sympathy, 1 go and kneel down at the back
part of the bo at and sav. "O Christ, wear*
one of Gennesaret, sympathize with all my
sorrows, man of Nazareth, man of the
or,.-- \ a.an. a man. But if 1 want t
conouer mv spiritual foes, tt I want to get

to the of the boat and i kneel down,
and! say "O Lord Jesus Christ. Thou who
dost hush the tempest, hush all my grief,

Christ can hush a temp'-st. ns

There is one storm Into which we will all

that soul Is not troubled, there is no

weeps no tears; calm, satisfied, peaceful,

We’re home at last, home at last.
Glory to God, all our dangers are o'er.
We stand secure on the glorified shore.
Glory to God, we will shout evermore.
We’re home at last, home at last.

41 T encountere l the strangest man I
ever saw while I was doing some gov
eminent work in Missouri," said the
railroad contractor, “He was smart
enough—so jolly that every one liked
him, and apparently in the best of
health. But he made a few bail deals

erty, and seemed to throw tip his

to be his own man, and would driit
dong till he found out what the world

“ lie never tried to dispose of any
of his possessions by auction or pri¬
vate sale, but nearly every day held a
raffle at which the chief attractions
were his jokes and odd sayings. All
this time be whs not trying to earn n
dollar, and in a year or so it was
thought that he had gone to the end
of his string.
“When he disposed of tho family

left, he coolly announced the next
day he would raffle himself. He
didn't kuou whether the boys would
care to buy chances, but he meant
business and would w ork faithfully
for the man who drew him. Tickets
sold for good figures, but there were
two left, and he laughingly said that
he would take a couple of shots at
himself. When the drawing came off
he held the lucky number. loose
