the WORLD'S TRUE LIGHT. REV. S. W. ROGERS’ SERMON AT SEVENTH STREET CHURCH. 1 Large Congregation Listened to the Kloqnent Diponrr-**ChrUt the True Light Which Lighteth Every Man That Cometh Into the World/’ the Preacher** Teil-The Meaning of the Apostle John Ex plained. Rev. 6. W. Rogers of Columbus preach ed at the Seventh 8 reet Methodist Church last night before a large congre gation. Dr. Rogers is a preacher of ab.l ity and his sermon held the closest in terest of his congregation. His subject was “The True Light.” from the text, “That was the true Light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.” “What does the apostle mean?” asked Dr. Rogers. “Is he indulging in wild hy perbole. or is he speaking the words of truth and soberness? At the wilting of the text St. John, though a poet of the first water, had passe i the heyday of youth, when hyperbole is the favorite figure, and was in extreme old age. His gospel was wrPten A. D. 97, even after Revelation, which succeeded all hi- other hocks. The figure in the text may be metaphor, but certainly not hyperbole. Det us trace the mean ng of his meta phor. “The Gospel according to S . John commences with a spiritual para phrase on the first chapter of Genesis. Let us compare the two para graphs. Moses says, 'ln the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.’ John pays, ‘ln the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.’ The same was in the beginning with God. “Moses says, ‘And the earth was a waste and a desolation; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, i>et there be light.” and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good.’ Note this: that it was good.’ ‘And God divided the light from the darkness.’ A scientific re mark just here. The sun was the source of that light just mentioned and was cre ated on the first day. but was appointed for erlgmtand seasons on the fourth day. Bear this statement in mind when con sidering our proposition concerning the sun. Now. let us see how John gives a spiritual signification to the foregoing words in Genesis. He says. ‘All thing* were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in dark ness; and the darkness comprehended it not.’ “I will now read the sixth, seventh and eighth verses, closing with the ninth \erse, from which my text is taken. “ ‘There was a man sent from God whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that light, but was sent to bear witness of that light. That was the true light, which liteth every man that cometh into the world.’ Having exam ined John’s spiritualized version and par aphrase of the creation, we are now ready for our first proposition. As the sun lighteth every material substance in the world, so Christ, the Sun of righteousness, lighteth every man that cometh into the world. “From the sun we receive light, heat, life, and from its actinic rays, chemical force. The sun on the surface of the earth has imprisoned its light in every ob ject as insec is are imprisoned in amber, and lander its magic stroke each object be comes ‘a thing of beauty and a joy for ever.' It is the great source of vegetable and animal life. From its iridescent paint-box of violet, indigo blue, green, yellow, orange, and red, a world formless and void has blushed Into the roseate hues of Eden. Ii paints the flowers, land scapes. and fruits. It colors the ceiling of the firmament with cerulean blue and carj>ets the earth with living beryl. It literally gives us bread from heaven; for the food which we eat is only transmuted sunshine. The ruddy cheeks of adolescent beauty are but sun spots—except when ar tificial. “Men and women are but animated sun beams. Lot us hope that this literal statement may be true in a figurative sense of all around us—that they may be sunbeams of love, scattering their rays of kindness and cheerfulness on all whom they meet. But the sun is also beneath the surface of the earth. The philosopher who puts more coal on his empty grate, know’s that those lumps of coal are but blocks of sunlight. Fire light, candle light, gas light, and electric lights are only borrowed solar rays. Prometheus-like we have stolen fire from heaven and. witfc that celestial fire have lighted our house hold altars and marts of commerce. The sun is the source of the earth’s internal heat. In the dim cycles of the past, caught by some nebular tempest from the parent lumina ry, those solar flames which erstwhile en veloped a wor’.d, were whirled into their Plutonic abodes, and now light their ta pers on voicanlc peaks, and impress their warm kisses on scoriae and lava. “All thrs forces of nature come from the sun. By the conservation of energy, heat and electricity may be changed into light, and that light comes from the sun. A cyclone is light changed into solar fire and that lire in its turn transformed into motion. Thus the sun originates evil as well as good; but the contradistinction to its light, let us place Christ, the true Light. Everything good in the word comes from Christ; everything evil from the non-Christ. Do not misunderstand this statement; for what feeble human in tellect sometimes calls good is not really good. According to etymology, god and good were originally the same word. Under the hand of Providence, what we consider evil may bo turned Into gpod, things work together for good to them’ that love God.’ “That was the true Light, which light eth every man that cometh into the world.” “What does the text imply? It implies the following corollary to our first proposi tion : “God has made provision for the salva tion of every man, woman and ‘child In the world. ‘‘lt Is not necessary to enter into an elaborate discussion of this theorem, but merely to hinge the assertion on a few scriptural proofs. In Hebrews we are told that Christ tasted death for every man. I. John, chapter ii. verse 2. says, 'And he is the propitiation four our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.’ Paul tells us that In due time Christ died for the ungodly. Christ Is called In Holy Writ the Savior of the World. With these pas ayes ringing In my ears I dare not preach a restrlcte 1 or limited atonement; for It is unwarranted by the word of God. and a slur on the character of God. It is not my province In this discourse to inquire why men are lost, buts mply t< stick to the text. “leojl* of this day,” said Dr. Rogers, “are asking for a broad gospel.

The Egyptian ß , C-nvanites Baby lonians, Chaldeans as well as the He brews, had a ccn e;t on of right and worng. Abraham voiced this universal sentiment when he ehailerged Jehovah Himself in his query, ‘Shall not the judge of all th? earth do right?’ It is not our p ace In this sermon to discus con cience; for true consci nee involves the i e:i of a Divine reve atfen.

It streamed from the soul r.f Lady Macbeth who. walking in her sleep the gloomy watches of the night, said of her hand, ‘The smell of blood is on it, and all the perfumes of Araby will not sweeten tWs Utile hand.’ Sec ond, how his Christ lighted the nations. In their system of sacrifices. A system of blood sacrifices was early manifested among the nations. The Hit tites, Hivites, Jebusites. and other na tions driven from Canaan by the Israelites —all offered their sacrifices with blood, and so with all the othe } r nations of an tiquity. The Hindoos, North American Indians, and other peoples widely removed from each other by climate and location verify the giand scriptural truth, ‘With out shedding of blood is no remission.’ There is a growing disposition in the pul pits of to-day to minify the atonement and stress only the life of Christ. Prag matical pulpiteers! These theological chameleons, like the Athenians of old, are continually waiting for some new leaf or flower of doctrine to be blown their way. Let them rave over the ‘aesthetics and harmonics' discovered in the life of Christ, but as for me. give me the blood. I preach the gospel of blood. Eliminate the blood from the life of Christ and that life becomes a dismal farce. Christianity degenerating into mere hero-worship. “Let us now consider the true Light un der two phases: Chrlet ns a principle, and Christ as a personality. “This principle embodied in Christianity reveals itself in thought, word and deed. Dr Rogors then dealt with these points. Dr Rogers dealt eloquently with the per sonality of Christ and nis career on earth. “The body of Christ is in heaven.” he said, “but his omnipresent personality continue* in spirit to light humanity. See Christ lighting the Roman Empire. The light burned through Judea, Samaria and Galilee. It burned In the Roman prov inces around Paiestine. It burned in Route itself, until the disciples of the humble Galilean could be found in the palaces of the Caesar*. “It seized on peasants end princes; the rich, the poor; the learned, the un learned. It burned Its way to different countries of the Roman Empire, until Spain. France. Italy, Greece, Asia Minor and North Africa teemed with Christians. “It burned on until Constantine sow in the burnished clouds a crimson cross and surrendered to that God. whose blood-red letter* said .‘By tnls sign you conquer.’ It found its way to the Anglo-Saxon heptarchy of Britain, being introduced into the kingdom of Kent, through the in fluence of Pertha. a Christian lady, who had married Ethelbert the King. Soon it had possession of England, being carried there by missionaries from Rome. it seems strange that any one should oppose foreign missions, when we recollect that, but for the faithful missionaries who brought the gospel to our ancestors we ourselves would be to-day In the depth of heathenism. The true Light soon burned into every nation of Europe; it blazed in the deserts and on the coasts of Africa; it shone on Asia; and when America was discovered it lighted these distant shores. Ii is shining to-day on almost every nation. The morning light of the millennium is breaking, when China, Japan, and the Philippines will hail Jesus as the Kng of Peace, and crown him Lord of all; when Europe, Asia', Africa. America, and the isles of the sea will be christianized, and when every Christian will let his light shine for Jesus. ” ‘That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.’ Let th- false lights of atheism, agnosticism, deism, higher criticism, and every other sort of ism delude their fol lowers. but Christ stands as a Pharos to overpower their feeble rays and lighten a world. Christianity is the power of the ages. It is the dynamics of the universe. It is dynamite and can overturn the loft iest mountains of sin and ignorance. It has planted schools and colleges In the waste places, and the desert has be.n made to blossom as the rose. “Ah! how much the church of God needs that power to-day. Wo speak of getting religion as if we were getting a hat or shawl. What we want Is to get Christ. Get Him. Let Him take |ossession of your heart; and then ihe woes, the heart aches. that secret sorrow which none but God has seen. the bitterness and the fret ful fever of life, under His benign light will sparkle lik- the gems of Golcondi.

I , that Sister Cecilia, a cloistered nun of the Academy of Mount St. Ursula, Bedford Park, who kft (he convent a week or two asro for the iirst time in forty-five years, has teen summari y ordered back to her cell. Sister Cecilia's appearance in Ihe streets of Babylon created a great deal of inter est ar.d curiorl y on the part of the pub lic. as she was loooked upon almost as me risen from the grave. It had been taken for granted for more than a gen eration that she was entombed for life behind the bars cf her clcister. Before this wonder over her avatar in the oally walks of life has ceased Baby ion is again stirred by the rumor that her superior, the Rev. Mother Dominic Weiss, has ordered her back to her bars and her asceticism. Sister Cecilia was the daughter of the late Bryan Lawrence cf tMs city, a finan cier and pt.llanthrop'st Sie entered the Ursuline Convent when she was seven teen years old. and, living in strict com pliance with the rigid regvla'lons of the order, had not wandered beyond the bars of her cloister for forty-five years. It is reported that when show n th • newspapfr publications about her reap peatance in everyday life the Sister be came so enraged that she was made 111 for two days, from nervous shock. Father Daly, of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, said lost night that Archbishop Corrigan is at the retreat at St Joseph s Seminary Dunwoody, near Tonkers, and that h> is certain the Arcthishep has not ex press and any opinion as to the Sleter Ce c las departure from the convent ‘‘As to the ordering of (he Sister back to her ce l.'' said Father Daly, ' that can hnrdly be correct, as the Sisters of the Uisullne order go Into their convents for life. When they come on this side of the 1 ars of their cell It is for good and all. Thfre Is no such thing as a vacation, or a recess, or a tempoiary leave of ab sence Their vows compel them to stay within (he clcister for the remainder of their live s. ‘‘This is not so great a hardshirt as It sounds. It is not impossible, it It not even difficult, to retire from th- convent, if the Sist r sa desirts.

How Splendidly Her Troop* Have Horne Tliem*elve In f hlnn. From the New York Tribune. Some surprise Is reported (o be ex pressed in Europe, even in England, at the conduct of the Japanese in the opt r aelons leading to the relief of the lega tions at Pekin. II Is observed with as tonishment that their commanders show ed great skill In nil the ways and mean* of the most highly civilized warfare, and that their soidlers showed the most ap proved valor nisi discipline. Moreover, they were temperate and humane and, CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought in brief, hey compared well with any ; o:her troops in the world. Our own surprise in the case is more at this surprise than at the cause of It. We had supposed that the war between China and Japan had given the nations of Europe a Just idea of the quality of i ihe Japanese in welfare, and that the : marvelous development and progress of I that country in the arts and sciences and | in the humanities had shown sufficiently : the character of Japanese civilization. j True, people have been saying 4hat Ja- , panese civilization is only skin deep, a mere varnish over ineradicable barbar ism. If so, the varnish seems to be un commonly durable. It is weather-proof. It does not wear off. You cannot, as a rule, scratch a Jap and find a Tartar. The prejudice ©gainst the Japanese and this incredulity concerning their real civ ilization must be regarded, it seems to i us, as a survival of the aneienr race and creed hatreds of the dark ages. There is an old, old lesson which the world has not fully learned. Richard might have learned it from Snladln, and Bonaparte from Toussiant and Kruger from Khama. It is to be hoped that one of these days it w’ill be realized, and that we may all come to realize ihat—pace the German Emperor—men may be good soldiers, even be humane in spite of having yellow-’ skins and diagonally set eyes. No doubt we of the Caucausian race are the people. But we are not sure that quite all of chivalry and virtue will perish with us. orrici tL. NOTICE. City of Savannah. Office C’crk of Counc 1, Aug.
