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¬ ing t men. ho calm Ily |hrow thn flush of ’Christ of the lightning l see as the spray dropped from His beard, 11 n has one word tor* tho sky und another word for the waves. 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 made up of sunshine and shadow. There may he In it arctic blasts or tropical tonnt- does l know not what is before vou, but 1 b« know well. if you have Christ with you* all shall Y ou may seem to get along without the religion of Ohrisl while everything goes 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 < hrist was not smooth -'ailing. So you have found it; so 1 have found it. Did you ever mgi >■ the end of the life of the apostles ct Jesus Christ - You would say that if overmen ought to have had a smooth life, a smooth departure, then those men the disciples d Jesus Christ, ought to have had such a departure and such it life.

If you do not find It in one way, you will get it ia another wav. 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¬ ing "and had their robes washed and made white in the blood of the Lamb.*’ Oh, do not bo disheartened! O child of God take courage! Yon are in glorious com¬ panionship. God will vou through all them* trials, and Ho will deliver you. 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 the victory iroiit oversiu. death and hell. 1 come to the of the boat and i kneel down, and! say "O Lord Jesus Christ.

Or, your property gone, yoit said, “I have so much banksto- L. ( have so many government securities. J. have so many houses, I have so many farms’’ all gone, all gone. Why, all the storms that over trampled you have not been completely overthrown, Why? Christ hushed the tempest. Your little one was taken away. Christ says: “I have that little one. I can take care of him us well us you cun, Letter Ifusiiing than you <'an, oh, bereaved mother!” the tempest! God When’your property went away, said, “There are treasures in heaven, in hanks that never break.” There is one storm Into which we will all have to run the moment when wc Jet go of tills life und try to take hold of tho next, when we will want all the grace we can have—we will want it all. Yonder I see a Christian soul rocking on the surges of death. All tho powers of darkness seem let out agulnst that soul the swirling wave, the thunder of the sky, the scream- ing wind, all seem to unite together-hut that soul Is not troubled, there is no sighing, there are no tears; plenty of tears lu the room at the departure, but he weeps no tears; calm, satisfied, peaceful, all is well. Jesus huBhing the tem-pest! By the flush of the storm you sec the harbor just ahead, und you arc making for that harbor. Strike eight hells. All is well. Into the harbor of heaven now we glide; We re home at last, home at last. Softly we drift on its bright, silv ry tide. 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.
