Thl is to first resurrection, niessea ana aviy im lie that hath part in the first resurrection. rXlHE Tcsurrection of the just pre- I cedes the resurrection of the tin just- Such Is the plain teaching f the text to which you have listened, Blessed and holy are they who have cart In this first resurrection. On them tha second death shall never ex erclse Its awful power. But they shall live and reign with Jesus Christ dur ing the thousand years that intervenes between the coming of the Lord for his people to the coming of the Lord, witn Ilia neonle. Some have tried to show that this first resurrection is not a resurrection of people, but rather a resurrection of dead principles. cur. Aiiora in uis new Greek Testament says if this passage does not refer to a literal res urrection of literal people, then there Is an end of definite meaning in plain words, and the Apocalypse or any other book may mean anything we please. And I remember how Mr. Hpurceon once said. "I do not hesitate to affirm that the resurrection of principles or doctrines does not give the fair mean ing of these words. This is the res urrection of men, for is it not written The rest of the dead lived not' It is a literal resurrection of the saints of God and not of principles nor of doc trines." Resurrection Seen aa by Reclmrnt. Breckenridge has told us how it is clear that the righteous dead are res urrected at the beginning of the mil lennium and then the thousand years wears Itself away, when the rest of the dead are raised who lived not again until the thousand years are finished. And in that marvelous resurrection chapter in Corinthians we are clearly taught that there is a resurrection that concerns the righteous and the right eous alone. "Every man in his own or der; Christ the first fruits: afterward they that are Christ's at his coining." No mention of any impenitent dead! indeed no mention of the resurrection of any who are not in Christ and of Christ! First to be resurrected. Jesus, who is the first fruits: afterward and 200 years have been swallowed up in that afterward afterward they who are Christ's at his coming. And Jamie son, Fausset and Brown, in their com mentary have told up how that lan guage pertains to the Greek imagery of varying troops and regiments In an army, who are marching in proper mil itary order. And Jesus first comes forth In res- Sunday Church Services CHURCH KOTICES DUE THURS DAY, Church notices for The Sunday Oregonlan should be In this of fice by Thursday at G P. M.

Afterward, the end, the resurrection of the rest of the dead. And harking back to the same chapter from which I have Quoted, faul says "As in Adam, all died, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Victory of Righteous Pictured, A sentence that 'clearly concerns only the righteous dead. Else you must have the restoration of all men, if all are then raised and all thus raised are the subjects of this resurrection. "Or the other horn of the dilemma presents itself and you must have the annihila tion of the wicked, unless there be, as Holy Scripture teaches, the second res urrection. Hear the Apostle as he says: "The righteous dead shall come forth incorruptible; and then we shall all be changed." No mention of the im penitent again. Not a passing refer ence to those who have died in wick edness and sin. But the plain declara tion that when Christ calls for his own, all the sleeping believers, and they alone, will respond to the call. The faithful who are alive upon the earth shall be transformed by his appearing, so that from the grave the corruptible shall put on Interruption and we who are awe shall be clothed with Immor tality, and thus we shall all be changed. And you remember how in that sam chapter the Apostle goes on to say, when the righteous dead are awakened by the voice of Jesus, and when the liv ing righteous are, transformed by the glory of his appearing, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written. "Death is swallowed up in victory." And the Jubilant rising believers shall say, urave, you nave lost your vic tory, for even our bodies have been resurrected." And the living redeemed ones shall say, "Death, you have lost your sting, for we have escaped death through the appearing of our adorable Lord." Epistle of Paul Is Cited. And as though that were not enough. just recall how Paul, writing to the Thessalonians, is so explicitly clear on the fact that there is a resurrection for the righteous and for them alone: The dead In Christ shall rise first. Priority over the general dead who fell asleep in their Impiety and in their sin. And all these who are thus resur rected in Paul's Epistle to the Thessa lonians, rise up to meet Christ in the air, and are forever wjth the Lord. A statement manifestly untrue, if that Apostle be referring to the general res urrection. But a statement that is abundantly and gloriously true, if he is talking of the first resurrection; the resurrection of those who are holy and blessed, and therefore have part in the first resurrection. And as though that were not enough, in that same letter the apostle says: The Christ whocame for his people and caught them up to be with him in the clouds, is the Christ who will af terward come with his people In flam ing fire that shall levour all his ad versaries. The con: .ng with his saints, following the coming for his saints." The apostle understood this, else In writing to the Philippians why should he pray that he might have such fa vor with Almighty God as to attain unto the resurrection from the dead. For there is no need of finding favor in God in order to rise. Have we not been teaching all these centuries that immortality reposes in the spirit ot man, and he cannot help but rise and eet his god at last?

And as Mr. Spurgeon further says. TOur apostle Is evidently speaking of a first resurrection, for it could not be a general resurrection, for ne wouio. attain unto that, live as he list. It must have been some superior resur rection in which only those shall be partakers who have known Christ and the power of .his resurrection. You cannot interpret this passage without admitting that thero is a prior resur rection of the Just before tne resurrec tion of the unjust, because he is not talking about a general resurrection." Therefore, Paul says, may tnere oe mnarted unto me such spirituality, as shall qualify mo for having a part in that resurrection, that is prior to the general resurrection of all the sleeping dead. But you have not merely to read the Epistles, In order to come to a realiza tion of the two resurrections. Our Lord himself referred to them most distinct ly. "Thou shalt be recompensed," Rays Christ, "at the resurrection of the just." Why did not Jesus say, "Ye shall be compensated in the resurrection?" Why say the resurrection of the Just, if there be not a resurrection of the unjust also? And if referring to the resurrection of the Just and the unjust together, why not have said, "Ye shall be recompensed in the general resurrection?"

And as Spurgeon again remarks, "The Lord might as well have said, 'Thou shalt be compensated In the general resurrection," if the two resurrections, namely that of the just and that of the .unjust, are to happen at the same time. To them that are accounted worthy of the resurrection, says Jesus, there are certain rewards and felicities assured. What does it mean to be worthy of the resurrection, when, according to the doctrine of the church for 2000 years, a ne;e.ary im mortality is the possession of every man." Worthy of the resurrection! No mat ter how little worthiness I possess, or how much unworthiness I possess, I have got to rise. No matter though In me all worthiness has been burned out by sin, I cannot escape the resurrec tion. For "It is appointed unto man to die. After that the Judgment." And there can be no judgment without a resurrection. nd yet our Lord says, "There is a life to be lived; and a work to be wrought, that shall make a man worthy of the resurrection." To what can he be referring, except to the resurrection In which he alone has part who is holy and blessed? And does he not say in the gospel by John, that if I do his will, and live and serve him, he will raise me up at the last jar.

No matter wheth er I have served the King or been in rebellion against him, I shall rise again. Disciple Teacb Despite Me. Yet Jesus says as a special privilege, as a high honor, and as a reward for service, if you live the life I command, I will raise you up. It is the lot of all to rise, and "yet we have here a priv ilege for the elect." says Mr. Spurgeon. You remember how the apostles in the Acts were said to be preaching the res urrection from the dead. And it stirred the Ire of the Sadducees, who believed neither in the resurrectio of the dead; nor in the resurrection from the dead. But the apostles went forth with their doctrine, and in addition to preaching the resurrection of the dead, the resur rection that is common to man, they also preached the resurrection from the dead, which is the privilege of a certain favored class alone. The resurrection the Apostle Paul speaks of at-such length in Thessalon ians, when the righteous dead are raised first; the resurrection of Cor inthians, when "Every man in h.a own shall rise, Christ the first fruits then those who are Christ's at his coming." "Marvel not at this," says Jesus, "for the hour is coming when they who are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they shall come forth, some to the resurrection of glory, and some to the resurrection of gloom." Yet people have said because that mentions an hour, it is a plain proof there cannot be the two resurrections. When just before that he said: "Marvel not at this, for the hour com eth and now is when the dead in trespasses and sin, who then stood around him, shall hear the voice of the Son of Man." And that heur has lasted two thousand years already! So Surely the hour that concerns the re surrection of the body might easily be spread over the period of a thousand years. Matthew declares that Jesus once said the angels would come and gather from the four winds of Heaven the elect of God. Time to Be Triumph for Some. Illustrative surely of the fact that Paul affirms and reaffirms; and that is taught in our text; that there 1b to be a special resurrection of the elect. "Worthy of a better resurrection," says the Apostle to the Hebrews. Wliat does he mean, If there Is only one res urrection? ' "For how could it be a better resurrection unless there be some distinction between the resurrection of the saints, and the resurrection of the sinner," again asks Mr. Spurgeon. My brethren, we may well pray that we may be worthy of that better resur rection; even of tho resurrection of those who come forth xat the call of Jesus Christ, who are the righteous, and the expectant; and who precedo the resurrection of the impenitent by a long millennium spent in triumph with the glorified King. A brother preacher suggested the other day that this pre-mlllennialism is so modern that it cannot yet be trusted. Modern! Why in the early history of the chufch they knew noth ing but the pre-millennial .view. Modern! Let me cite you the state ment of a scholar, deeply versed in gospel lore, who says: "It cannot be denied that for three centuries the church held the dortrine of the pre-millennial doctrine of Christ. I have gone through all the writings of the fathers for three centuries care fully, and I do not find one exception, save Origin."

"Why Do W three hundred years after Jesus went to Heaven, the church believed the pre mlllennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ." Skeptic Asserts Same Truth. And Dr. Brooks has assured us that It would have been deemed a depurture from tho Christian faith in those early centuries for men to have looked for aught except the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ prior to the resurrection of the wicked; coming in His saving power to gather His children home to reign with Him during the long period elapsing between the first and the second resurrections. I see some preach ers in the house. These preachers will understand even better than you who have had no spe cial study in church history, how strong an authority is Moshelm, tho church historian. And he declares the prevail ing opinion that Christ was to come and reign "a thousand years among men before the final dissolution of the world has met with no opposition pre vious to the time of Orlgen." And Gibbon the skeptic, but a great historian asserts the same truth, when affirming this belief to have been tho reigning belief of orthodox be lievers. Papias, who, If not a disciple of the" Apostle John, at least received his doctrines from the immediate fol lowers of the Apostle, is by some writ ers termed the father of millcnarian Ism; while Dr. Whitly, who is also spoken of as the father of modern post millennial teaching, admits that dur ing the first two or three centuries the pre-millennial view was held by all or thodox Christians. A recent critic has affirmed that be lievers In this pre-mlllenninl coming of Jesus Christ are people with a theo logical squint; whose minds are ab normal and closed against the truth. But I hardly think that. Because as I have already shown you. this was the faith of the early Christians, and of many who sincerely have sought walk in the Light of Life. Heroes) of Faith Are Many. Heroes of the faith were many to of them, such as Calvin, and Luther, and Knox, the Wesleys, Ridley. Guthrie. Hali. Chalmers, Spurgeon. Moody and Gordon, and a multitude of others that I cannot stop even to mention. But all that is not to the point. What do the oracles, what does the Book, teach? To the law and to the testimony. "The rest of the dead lived not for a thou sand years. This is the first resurrec tion." Uut the coming of the Lord precedes the first resurrection. Never a body shall come out of the grave till the Lord shall come. His voice shall go ringing over the earth, and the sleep ing dual of his redeemed shall hear It: and the dead in Christ snail rine I-:' .. ...j .v.....
