INRITUAL DISCERSMEST. Et9raal Truth and Etorual Future Clear Oaly in Christ. TU Eternal Future tu rl Man Canuitt Ulsoover Spiritual Truth Eternal Truth Not I embed by Ueartay We are PiumUed a Perfect Jlanlfi- tatlon. At the Congregational church yester day morning Rev. Dr.

Askin preached from the subject, "Eternal truth and eternal future clear only in ClirU." L. I. 1 no iuok ior ma texts trie iollowing verses "But the natural man receiveth not the thiturs of the spirit of God, for they are foolish unto him, neither can he know them, because they are ally discerned." 1 2:11. And it doth not yet appear what shall be, but we know that when he shall appear we shall he like him, tor we hhull see him as he is." 1 John, II '1. The preaching of the Apostle Paul was- rejected by lurg" numbers in the cultivated city of Corinth.

It was not wise enough, nnr elnqiient cnotii'h, nor sustained by miracles. The Jew missed the signs and wonders which he looked for in a new dispensation, and the philosopher D'ijvd the convincing arguments of the MMe. To all of tlu-! the Apostle was content to reply that the were in competent to try the question. The prin ces of this world might jude of politics the leaders in the world of literature were qualified to pronounce on a point of taste, it in matters spiritual they ere as unfit t) judge as a man who is deaf is unlit to decide respecting harmony. For every kind of truth a sp cial capacity or pa- ration is necessary.

For a revelation of spiritual lacts there must be a livine truth. Iu this second passage the Apostle John, while agreeing to Paul's statement admits that there is obscurity hanging over much of our etern future. It doth not appear, it is not clear, hat we shall be. The tirststepof the soiri into an 0 her state of being is a mystery. The ex-istenceof the boiiI sepaiatefrom the body is incomprehe tsii I The place of our future life is also obscure.

How there can be relation to place without a body we do not know, and when the body is restored we cannot tell the location of the resurrection world. The outward form of that future life it also mysterious. That it will be blessed and glorious we may well believe, although the modes of thought and feeling in that life to come perplex us. Hut the great laws of mind and spirit must remain the same, because in them we are formed after the image of God. Notice in the first place, friends, that the natural man cannot discover spiritual truth.

Now when I speak ot the natural man, I mean the lower faculties of a rfiah. There is a life of mere Fcnsation, that which pleases the eye and ear, and the Corinthians appreciated this. Theirs was the land of the beautiful, ttieirs, the worship of the beautiful, but the eye can only see the Unite beautiful; it cannot see the land that is alar oil'. It is the soul, not the eye, that knows God. Scientific analysis can never discover God or heaven.

Science giyes us no meaning of that term. Science says "I must feel, I must jee, I must hear," it can go no higher man that. And don't you know, friends, that some of the greatest scientists we have ever had in this world, men who have made their names immortal, have never felt that this was a universe controlled by the infinite intelligence of almighty God Darwin and Huxley had no idea of this immortality. Hume, the great historian, had no regard for virtue and certainly no regard for God. The natural man tan not discover these things.

It must be through his soul. Eternal truth not reached by hearsay. Suppose I have a revelation and try to give it to you. Through what channel shall I give it? Words. Hut words do not always express the ideas for which they stand.

Suppose you 8eak of ice to an individual who has always lived in the torrid zone and never seen it, never felt it, he cannot have the same concep- tion of ice that the Greenlander has. When we talk aboi.t justice to an unjust man or purity to a sensualist he does not understand it, it is only his idea, and so each man has his own conception, iU own nmiou Of Ood. Uut a hearsay religion does noUave, We must know It by experience. Truth is not discoverable by the heart, It must enter into it. The power of the imagination is distinct from true reasoning.

Imagination is intuitive, inspiring, and you feel it. When your house has been quiet and you have tried to keep Company with your soul, there have been moments of reflection concerning God, and some great truth has Hashed upon your mind and vou have risen to a new VWureJtion. Weat wa ii? It was the tower of imagination, but this realm of the natural man can never picture what flod has treasured up for them that love Now then, love. There is nothing else in the natural man equal to it. When spirit blends with spirit this is the purest joy of the merely human.

It is this earthly affection that binds the mother to the child, the husband to the wife and the wife to the husband, but no earthly affection is to be compared to the love of God for every child of his, for "God so loved Ibe world that He gave His only Wotten Son, that whosoever beheveth iiim mlirht not perish but have ever- lasting life. Now, then, wo are promised a perfect manifestation of truth and of' ter.ial future in Christ, for when he shall apiwar we shall see him as he is. Christ, in his twofold nature is a revelation or the eternal future, The first thought of the Apostle's was of the human nature of Christ's reapiearing. He says "ye men of Gftl 1 8t 'N'1 'e heaven, that same Jcus which ye have geVnifrt up into heaven shall, in like nSnner.wmeaKain. There will be a Seat difference in many th.ngs, but these Jake no difference in his true human nature- That marred visage that tender voire, shall appear as never before.

There will ba a difference in th appear- anceof Jtus Christ, but he win pe knoVn. The life of the soul will ke Ae jlaeeof the mere material but we know each other there, and then we Sal be the manifestation of the D.v.ne character which will eclipse anything the Apostles saw in their lifetime, THE DAILY HUli: KEAltSTEY, NE1J HON DAY EVKNIXG, 1893. Then, there is in the third place, a fuli vision promised. Me ill himself and we shall have a f'll'l, liCll islotl of the Christ. "We su-ill sec hiin as lie i-," and this implies a very preut change in Some people think that when h-ae this tenement of cl.iy and no into the eternal mm-dons thtr we will bloom into a perfect being, but that is nut so.

There will be a going to hool thera as there has been here, and 1 believe that our soul's eyes looking tit him ill be like a summer's dawn, but wv shall have plenty of time to take in tlie matchless glories of the Son of God. One vision ill not be suflicient, but we ill follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeih. Thehu man spirit through all of the countless cycles of eternity shall be still going on in the wonderful similitude of God. An there is a reason for this. "We shall lie like him for we shall see him as he is." Don't you know th; looking on one we love makes a striking similarity.

It is said that Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone look more like brother and hir-ler now than husband and wife because they have lived so long und lovinglv together. Is it 1 don't think it is. Now in the last place there are some reasons why God has chosen such a ay to lead us on to the future world.

It is a -st to see whether we seek him for wiiat is or what he can give. Moses wanted go over the Jordan but in God's wisdom he as not permitted to go, but God heard the wish of Moses and sent him in company with F.lijah and showed him scenes fin beyond what he could have seen be fore and the work that had been accomp lished. God grant that we may loon upon this matter as being important to us ami effecting our etenial.destiny. (irrat Kxcitement at Callaway. The quiet town of Callaway, up at the other end of the H.

has been in a great st ite of excitement for a few days over a sudden and unexpecte 1 incrense the census that haw given the town a big bulge toward the fulfillment of the ambition to lie the metropolis of Custer county. It all coin -s about naturally enough, and is in a large part due to the itiring efforts of Goo. 15. Mair, postmaster, publisher of (he Courier, and le.iding citizen on several points. The direct cause of the excitement was a larsje intlux if new babii-s, not the lea-t of which lias already commenced to lick those nio new Columbian stamps at the happ home of Mr.

Serlmin Accident. About 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon a team belonging to John? Thornton, of fhornton township, became frightened ar the railroad crossing on Central i venue and commenced run. Mr.
