THE CALL FROM
PAST 10 FUTURE
NEW YEAR'S SERMON PREACHED SUN
DAY AI -PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
BY DEV. GOOD
Text Matthew 8:22. But Jesus
salth unto him, Lord, suffer me first
to go and bury my father.
"On one of his Galilean tours, Jesu
came to Capurnium and a grent crow
of people followed him. They wore
eager to hear the word of life."
"Jesus talked to the people 011 the
shore. Matthew and Luke give us
an account of this. He says, "as
they went the way, a certain man
said unto him, I will follow thee
whithersoever thou goest. And Jesus
said unto him, 'The foxes have holes
and the birds of the heaven have
1 nests: but the Son of man hath no
where to lay his head. And lie said
unto another follow me. But he said.
Lord, suffer me first to go and bury
my father. But he said unto him;
leave the dead to bury their own
dead; but go thou and publish abroad
the kingdom of God: And another
also said, I will follow thee Lord;
but first suffer me to bid farewell to
them that are at my house: but
Jesus said unto him, 110 man 'having
put his hand tq the plow and looking
back is fit for the kingdom of God."
Let the Past Bury the Past.
"Now I know, that It may seem
hard to understand why Jesus did not
grant the request of these aspiring
disciples. One of them wanted to
perform the most sacred of all duties.
It does seem that Jesus would have
granted such a request; but lie did
not. ?? Jesus knew that his ministry
must necessarily be short. And if
that man had gone back to bury his
father, according to the Mosaic law
and the Jewish custom he would have
been defiled for many days. Out
there before him was a larger life,
and in order to possess that life the
the things of the past must be left
to the past.
"And this thought is suggestive to
us at the beginning of the year. At
this season we all become retrospec
tive and prospective. But most of us
can look farther into the past than
into the future. This year should be
the best year of our lives. If It
proves so we must obey the voice of
our Master. We must let the past
bury the past and follow the voice.
"Of the religions now existing in
the world. Buddhism is said to num
ber foflr hundred million and Moham
medanism one hundred and twenty
million votaries: yet were we to
strike the person of Saka Muni", the
founder of Buddhism, and that of
Mohamet the founder of Mohamme
danism out of these respective sys
tems, their religions would remain
intact. The same is true of Brahm
inlsm, Confuslanism and Zoroaster
iantsm and every other religion of
the past and present. But if we were
to remove every reference to Christ
in the New Testament, tile brief re
mainder would at once become a mas
of shapeless ruins. What does this
prove? It proves that Jesus Christ Is
a fact with which we have to deal.
He is the center and the soul and the
heart of the Gospel. and he still
lives.
"But we want some other proof of
Jesus Christ as a living Christ, ^cm
pare the civilization of the past with
the civilization of the present. You
will find that great progress has been
made, and that Christianity in her
efforts to ^abolish social evils has
mitigated those evils. Very well,
how are you going to account for the
Christian that has overcome? How
are you going to account for the
changed lives? How are you tfolug
to account for the growth in charac
ter? How are you going to account
for the approach to the heavenly lif?e
Many hearts of stone have been taken
away and hearts of flesh have been
given iu their stead.
"He calls us from the past. This
has a clear meaning to us as we look
forward Into tho now year. We must
boar In mind that we can never ellm
lnate tho past.
(Life Is Real.)
"We have no time for the past.
Front face and straight ahead for
what is to be. Spend no time in vain
1 egret. Lingering over the past in
wailing and tears belongs only to
those out of whom the light of hope
ha3 died. Life is too real for a heart
to give Itself to sadness. Let tho
tombstones cast their shadows over
tho new made mound. Let life's
shndows fall in blessing on living
men and women.
"Life is real: life is ear.vst.
And tho grave is not Its goal
Oust thou art, to dust re:urnost.
Was not spoken to the sju!."
"That Is the 'Psalm of Lit' Its
meaning is plain. There Is an Im
morality worth gaining. Be after it
in the full zeal of a strong heart.
There is no time for idling in a world
like ours. We should look back over
tho past Just for a moment, and then
turn to the present and future.
"It is'so In the spiritual life. If we
enter upon tho spiritual life we must
leave our haunts and our old asso
ciation. For Just as soon as we turn
to? those past things they will pull us
back. Those who have left the
haunts of sin should never go back
to p!?y their respect to those -places.
"Do we not now see why our Sav
ior did not want these people 10 go
back to thoir old associations?
"There is much good to accomplish,
and to accomplish this we must push
ahead.
"Our lives belongs to God and they
will only find their fullest develop
ment In him. The call is to realize
that fullest development, 'And today
if ye will hear Ills voice harden not
your hearts.' "
Tough on the Joker.
The Contributor wrote 11 Joko about
a plu rubor whose bills were always
normal. 'That," said the editor, re
jecting it, "Is not a Joke: It's simply a
He."
The contributor tried again with a
story of tlie plumber whose charges
left nothing to be desired on the score
of size. "That," said t lie editor, who
had suffered, "Is not a lie. Neither Is
It n Joke."? London Scraps.
The Koran.
Mohammed repeatedly reminded his
countrymen of the fact that the Koran
was written in the Arabic and not, like
other sacred books. In a strange lan
guage Intelligible only to the learned.
As to the matter of style, the Koran Is
a very uneven production. The greater
part of the work Is decidedly prosaic,
but the commonplace Is occasionally
relieved by flashes of sublimity.? Xew

"Somo four years ago I had 1 10 mis

doctors could not tell ino what It was.
1 used everything I could bear or think
?of but all to no avail. The feet wero
all cracked across the bottom as if you
liad taken a knife and cut them every
which way. They would peel up, ana,
oh, my I how they did hurt when I
would trv to walk ? which 1 was not
abio to do for a long time. One day
one of our neighbors came to our houso
and asked what was tho matter. I
showed him my feet and he said ho had
some Cuticura Ointment which would
heal them up. There was only enough
to apply once, but I found it helped
mo sew much that I sent for a 6et of
Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and
Cuticura Pills, costing ono dollar, and
to my great joy, my feet were cured
