THE OPEN DOOR.
Subject of Dr. Talmage’s Ser
mon Yesterday.
The Brooklyn Divine Telis of the
Wonderful Receptive Power
of Heaven—The Pcor, the
Rich and the Well.
Brooklyn, July 20.—“ The Wide
O[>eii Door” was the subject of Dr. Tai
! mage's sermon today, the text being
Rev. iv, 1 : "And, behold, a door was
| opened in heaven.”
John hail been the pastor of achureh
I in Ephesus. He hud been driven from
his position in that city by an indig
nant populace. The preaching of a
pure and earnest gospel had made an
excitement dangerous to every form of
iniquity. This will often be the result
of pointed preaching. Men will flinch
under the sword strokes of truth. You
ought not to be surprised that the
blind man makes an outcry of pain
when tho surgeon removes the cataract
from his eye.
It is a good sign when you see men
uneasy in the church pew and exhibit
ing impatience at some plain utterance
of truth which smites a pet sin that
they are hugging to their hearts. After '
the [sitient has been so low that for*
weeks he said nothing anil noticed
• nothing it is thought to be a good sign
when he begins to be a little cross.
And so I notice that spiritual invalids
are in a fairway for recovery when
they biK'ome somewhat irascible and
choleric under the treatment of the
truth. But John had so mightily in
culpated public iniquity that he had
been banished from his church and
sent to Patinos, a desolate island, only
a mile in breadth, against’Whose rocky.
coasts the sea rose and mingled its voice
with the prayers and hymnings of the
heroic exile.
You cannot but contrast*the condi
tion of this banished apostle with that
of another famous exile. Look at the
apostle on Patmos and the great
Frenchman on St. Helena. Both were
suffering among desolation and bar
renness because of offenses committed.
Both had passed through lives event
ful and thrilling. Both had been hon
ored and despised. Both were impe
rial natures. Both had been turned
oif to die. Yet mark the infinite dif
ference: one had fought for the perish
able crown of worldly authority, the
other for one eternally lustrous. The
one had marked his path with the
bleached skulls of his followers, the
other lutd introduced peace and good
will among men. The one had lived
chiefly for self aggrandizement and the
other for the glory of Christ. The suc
cess.; of the one were achieved amid
the breaking of thousands of hearts
am! the acute, heaven rending cry of
orp'.i.-riage and widowhood, while the
triumphs of tile other made joy in
heaven among the angels of God.
nr.sPAin—noi'K.
The In art of one exile was tilled
with remorse and despair, while the
other was lighted up with thanksgiv
ing and inextinguishable hope. Over
St. Helena gather'd the blackness of
darkness, clouds lighted up by no sun
rising, but rent and fringed and hcav
. in ; with the lightnings of a wrathful
God, and the spray flung over the
rocks seemed to hiss with the eondeiu
nation: ' I'he way of the ungodly
shall perish." But over Patmos the
iirnvens were opened, and the stormy !
<c i beneath was forgotten in the roll
and gleam of waters from under the
throne like crystal, and the barren ;
uess of the ground under the apostle
was forgotten as above him lie saw the |
trees of life all bending under the rich j
glow of heavenly fruitage, while the j
hoarse blast of contending elements :
around his suffering bo.dy wastlrowned
in t‘i “ trumpeting of trumpets and the
harping of harps, the victorious cry of j
multitudes like the voice of many ■
waters ami the hosanna of hosts in
number like the stars.
Wbutadull spot upon which to stand !
and have such a glorious vision Had
Patmos been some tropical island nr
bored with the luxuriance of perpetual
siminier, and drowsy with breath of
cinnamon and cassia, ami tessellate 1 '
with long aisle., of geranium and cac
tils, we would not have b■ • I -|-p.-ised 1
at tiie spl.'mbir of the vision i, ,t tin- J
I last p!a -> vo:i wouid go to if •. , t .. ..ited I
to fi:i I beautiful visions worn' I be the |
isian lof Pal.ti >s. Yet it isar >'in 1 such '
gio >::r. sp its that God makes ; lie mo.-t .

tlirougli tiie awful shadows of a prison
that Joiin Bunyan saw 'lie g::t ■ of the :
j celestial city. God there divi i• I the '
■ light from the darkness. In that ic.o-.m 1
: abode, on scrapsof old paper p! -I up i
übmit l:i< room, tin* great dream v.ir
written. i
It was while John Calvin was ; I
refugee from bloody persecution an I
was hid in a house at Angouleme the
he conceived the idea of writing hi I
immortal ‘‘lnstitutes.” Jacob ha 11
many a time seen the sun breakin 1
through the mists and kindling then <
into shafts and pillars of fiery splendo- '
that might well have been a ladder so
the angels to tread on, but the famou
ladder which he saw soared through .
gloomy night over tho wilderness. Tin |
night of trial and desolation is tic (
scene of Ihe grandest heavenly revela
tioris. From the barren, surf beaten
rock of Patmos John looked up am]
saw that a door was opened in heaven. ,
UOD SEES EVKRYTHJNG.
Again, the announcement of such an
opened entrance suggests the truth |
that God is looking down upon the (
earth and observant of all occurrences, j
I f we would gain a wide prospective
climb up into a tower or mountain, j
The higher up wo are the broader the <
lundseapo we behold. Yet our most I
comprehensive view is liiultod to only i
a few leagues -hero a river and there a i
l ike and yonder a mountain peak. |
put .what must bo tiie glory of tho
v.i»th i i the eyo of him* who, from tho
door of h'stveti, Is'bolds at one glance
> til| inou:.t.iilis and ari l prairies
i
GOe-amr; ranos oespangiea wun j
tropical gorgoousness and arctic re;dons
white with everlasting snows; Ixrbanon
majestic with cedars and American
wilds solemn with unbroken forests of i
1 [lino; African deserts of glistening sand
ami wildernesses of water unbroken by
ship's keel; continents covered with
harvests of wheat and rice and maize;
the glory of every zone, the whole
world of mountains and seas ami for
ests and islands taken in in a single
glance of their great Creator.
As we take our stand upon some
high point single objects dwindle into
such insignificance that wo cease to see
them in tho minutiffi, and wo behold
only the grand points of tho scenery. ! 11
But not so with God. Although stand- 1
ing far up in tho very tower of heaven, *'
nothing by reason of its smallness es-1 '
capes his vision. Every lily of the ‘‘
Held, every violet under the grass, the ;
tiniest heliotrope, aster and gentian are
as plainly seen by him as the proudest h
magnolia, and not one vein of color in
their leaf deepens or fades without his v,
notice. From this door in heaven God
sefes all human conduct and tho world's o
moral changes. Not one tear of sor- I
row falls in hospital or workshop or h
dungeon but he sees it, and in high h
heaven makes record of its fall. v
The world's iniquities in all their b
ghastliness glower under liis vision, v
Wars and tumults and tho desolations o
of famine and earthquake, whirlwind o
and shipwreck spread out before him. s!
If there were n» being in all the uni- t<
verse but God he could be happy with o
such an outlook as the door of heaven. ! h
But there he stands, no more disturbed ; o
by the fall of a kingdom than the drop- \
ping of a leaf; no more excited by the ! I;
rising of a throne than the bursting of ■ e
a bud, the falling of a deluge than the | tl
trickling of a raindrop. Earthly roy- f<
alty dutches nervously its scepter and \ V
waits in suspense the will of inflamed e
subjects, and the crown is tossed from ii
one family to another. But above all: p
earthly vicissitude and the assault of v,
human passions in unshaken security fi
stands tho King of kings, watching ail h
the affairs of his empire, from the in- \ tl
troduction of an era to the counting of
the hairs of your head. ! [j
A WAY OK ENTRANCE FOR PRAYERS. it
Again, I learn from IP.n fact that a ’>
door in heaven is opened that there is "
away of entrnnoe for our prayer* and si
of egress for divine blessings. It does si
not seem that our weak voice lias <
strength enough to climb up to God’s ri
ear. Shall not our prayers bo lost in ’ s ’
the cloudsf Have words wings? Th ■ y
truth is plain Heaven's door is wide h
op in to receive every prayer. Must it s<
not be loud? Ought it not to ring up g
with the strength of stout lungs? Must 1'
it not boa loud call, such as drowning h
men utter, or like the siiout of some ti
chieftain in the battle? No: a wltisper fi
is as good as a shout, and the mere (I
wish of the soul in profound silence is f<
as good as a whisper. It rises just as o
high and accomplishes ju tas much. Is:
But ought not prayer to be made up i>
of golden words if it is to enter such a I
splendid door and live beside seraphim
and archangel ? Ought not every. ’ s <
phrase be rounded into perfection, i
ought not the language be musical and i b
classic and poetic and rhetorical? No; ' H
the most illiterate outcry, the unjointed , F
petition, the clumsy phrase, the sen- i P
fence breaking into grammatical blun-, •>
ders, an unwoyded groan, is just as es- h
fectual if it be the utterance of the d
soul's want. A heart all covered up h
with garlands of thought would be no v
attraction to God, but a heart broken
and contrite—that is the acceptable sac- u
riflee. “I know that-my Redeemer si
livetli,” rising up in tho mighty bar- n
mony of a musical academy, may over- i k
[lower our ear and heart, but it will i I
not reach the ear of God like the ti
broken voiced hymn of some sufferer oi
amid rags and desolation looking up f*
trustfully to a Saviour's compassion, t!
singing amid tears and pangs, ‘‘l know i
that my Redeemer livetli.” x
1 suppose that there was more rhet
oric and classic eleganco in the prayers
of the Pharisee than of the publican, tl
but you know which was successful, tl
You may kneel with complete elegance ('
on some soft cushion at an altar of ala- ie
blister and utter a prayer of Miltonic ni
sublimity, but neither your graceful h
[losture nor the roll of your blank verse w
will attract heavenly attention, while a>
over some dark cellar in which a Chris- m
tian pauper is prostrate in the straw di
angels bend from their thrones and cry h(
one to another, ‘‘Behold, ho prays!” is
Through this open door of heaven I
what a long procession of prayers is al
continually passing! What thanksgiv tl
lugs! What confessions! What inter ,b<
cessions! What beseeehingsl “And ; w
behold, a door was opened in heaven.” : io
IT IS OPEN THAT WK MAY LOOK IN. j ,li
Again, the door of heaven is opened , .
to allow us the opportunity of look ir
ing in. Christ when lie came from i
Bethlehem left it open, and no one !
since has dared to shut it. Matthew | J(
threw it still wider open when he came I j n
to write, and Paul pushed the door 1
further back when he spoke of the
glory to be revealed, and John in Rev
'III
elation actually points us to the harpe, ,
and the waters, and the crowns, and '
the thrones. There are profound mys- 1
teries about that blessed place that we .
cannot solve. But look through this . ‘
wide open door of heaven and see
what you can sec. God ni'-ans us to ”
look and catch up now something of o
the rapture, and attune our hearts to c
its worship. a
It is wide open enough to see Christ.
Behold him, the chief among ten thou
sand, nil tho bannered pomp of heaven
at ills feet. With your enkindled faith a
look on aloiigthe.se ranks of glory. Watch c
how their [labus wave and hear how p
their voices ring. Floods clapping their b
hands, streets gleaming with gold, un ii
counted multitudes ever accumulating tl
in number Mid over rising up into glad- ti
der hosanna'L If you cannot stand to J
ltx>k upon that joy for at least one li
hour, how could you endure to dwell y
among it forever? You would wish s
yourself out of it in tlireo days and 1
choose the earth again or any other a
place where it wus not always Buuduy. u

Again, the door of heaven stands
ij):”.! forth » Christian's final entrance.
Death t<> the righteous is not climbing
high walis or fording deep rivers, but it
is entering ;;-i open door. If you ever
vi it the old homestead wiiero you were
bora, and while father and inothcr are
yet alive, as you go up the lane in front
of the farm house, and put your hand
;>n the door and lift the latch, do you
h.iudder with fear? No. you are*glad
to enter. So your last sickness will be
inly the lane in front of your Father's
liouse, from which you hear the voice
if singing before you reach the door.
Aud death, that is tho lifting of the
latch before you enter, the greetings and
mibraces of the innumerable family of
the righteous. Nay, there is no latch,
For John says the door is already open.
What a company of spirits have already
Mitered those portals, bright and shin
,ng. Souls release 1 from the earthly
orison house, how they shouted as they
went through! Spirits that sped up
from the Hames of martyrdom, making
lieaven richer as they went in. pouring
their notes into tiie celestial harmony.
And that door lias not begun to shut.
If redeemed by ■ -.e all sfiall enter

dek with weariness, but on (he other
