tr. Talmago I'renches n Kiuiter Sermon
from tlio Text, "Surely the Bitterness
of Death Is Paul" All Our Troubles
End with Mfo.
Brooklyn, April 17- Being Easter
morning tlio Brooklyn Tabernacle con
fTojfrtion bad been invited to bring
(lowers tlie night before, and a bank of
Ihem was on tho front of the pulpit and
wreaths of them over tho pulpit. Tin'
word "Resurrection" was spelled ont in
letters of white lilies. Especial music
was added to tho great congregational
Billing. Tost, I Samuel xv. 82, "Surely
the bitterness of death is past."
So cried Agag, aud tho only objection
I kavo to this toxt is that a bad man ut
tered it. Nevertheless, it it truo, and in
a higher and better seuso than that in
which it was originally uttered. Years
ago a legend somothing liko this was
told me: In a hut lived n very poor
Woman by the name of Misery. In front
of her door was a pear tree, which was
her Only reeourco for a living. Christ
tho Lord, in poor garb was walking
through tho earth and no ono would en
tortain him. In vain ho knocked at tho
door of palaces and of humble dwell
ings. Cold and hungry and insufficient
ly clad, aa ho was, nono received him.
But coming ono day to tho hut of this
woman, whoso name was Misery, she
received him and offorcd him a fow
crusts and asked him to warm himself
at the handful of coals, and sho sat up
.;i light that tho wayfarer mighthavoa
pillow 10 rest on.
In tho morning this divino being asked
Ivor nd ho dopartod what Bho would have
hitn do in tho way of roward, and told
her that ho owned tho unlvorso ami
Would give her what sho asked. All sho
asked was that her pear treo might be
protected, and that tlip boyB who stole
hor fruit, ouco climbing tho treo, might
not be ablo to get down without hor con
ecnt. So it was granted, and all who
climbod tho treo wero compelled to stay
there. After a whilo Death came along
and told tho poor woman sho must go
with him. But sho did not want to go,
for, however poor one's lot Is, no ono
wants to go with Death. Then sho said
to Death, "I will go with you if you will
first climb up into my pear treo aud
bring mo down a fow pears boforo 1
start." This ho consented to do, but
having climbed into tho treo ho could
not again como down.
Then tho troubles of tho world began,
for Death did not come. Tho physicians
had no patients, tho undertakers no bus
iness, lawyers no wills to mako, tho poo
plo who waited for inheritances could
not got them, tho old mon staid in all
tho professions and occupations, so that
thoro was no room for tho young who
were coming on, and tho earth got over
crowded, and from all tho earth tho cry
went up: "Oh, for DeathI Whore is
Death?" Then tho 'people camo to tho
poor woman and begged hor to let Doath
descend from tho treo. In sympathy for
tho world sho cousontod to lot Death
como down on ono condition, and that
was that ho should nover molost or tako
hor away, and on that condition Death
was allowed to como down, and ho kept
his word and novor romovod hor, and
for that reason wo always havo Misery
with us.
the MiaimrsT mkiioy.
In that allegory somo ono has sot forth
tho truth that I mean to prosent on this
Easter morning, which celebrates tlio
resurrection of Christ and our coming
resurrection that ono of tho grandest
and mightiest mercies of tho earth ia
our divino jiortnisston to quit it. Sixty
four persons ovcry minuto step off this
planet. Thirty million pcoplo ovory
year board this planet. As a steamor
must mload beforo it takes anothor
cargo, aud as tho passengers of a rail
train must leavo it in ordor to havo an
other company of paBSongorB enter it, bo
with tliis world.
"What would happen to an ocean
steamer if a man, taking a stateroom,
should stay in it forever? What would
happen to a rail train if ono who pur
chases a ticket should always occupy tho
seat assigned him? And what would
liappeu to this world if all who came
into It nover departed from it? Tho
grave ia as much a bonodiotion as tho
oradlo. What sunk that ship in tho
Black sea a fow days ago? Too many
passengers. What waa tlio matter with
lliat steamer on tho Thames which, a
fow yoarB ago, went down with 000

world is only a ship, which was launched
somo six thousand years ago. It is sail

an hour. It is froightod with mountains
and cities, and has in its staterooms aud
steerage about sixteen hundred million
paasongora. So many are coming aboard,

would thoro bo for tho rising genera

when tlio world started would keep tho
modem pcoplo back and down, saying:
"We uro Bix thousand yeara old. Bow

ttw human raco was death. Within a

cupancy? What a mercy that thero is a
limitation to earthly environments.
OUR POOR, WKATC BODIES.
Death also makes room for improved
physical machinory. Our bodies havo
wondrous powors, but they aro very lim
ited. Thero aro beasts that can 0.1 It in
us, outlift us, outcarry us. Tlio birds
have both tlio earth and air for travel,
yet wo must stick to tho ono. In this
world, which tho human raco tak&i for
Its own, thero aro creatures of God that
can far surpas3us in somo things. Poath
removes this slower and less adroit ma
chinery and makes room for somothing
better.
Theso eyes that can seo half a milo
will bo removed for thoso that can beo
from world to world. Theso ears, v. hich
can hear a sound a few feet off, witl be
romoved for ears that can hear from
zono to zono. Theso feet will bo rem jved
for powers of locomotion swiftor than
tho reindeer's hoof or eagle's plunio or
lightning's Hash. Then wo havo only
live souses and to theso wo aro shut up.
Why only flvo senses? Why not fifty,
why not ono hundred, why not a thou
sand? Wo can havo and wo will have
them, but not until tills present physical
maohlnory is put out of tho way.
Do not think that this body is tho best
that God can do for us. God did not
half try when he contrived your bodily
mechanism. Mind yon, I boliovo with
all anatomists and all physiologists and
with all scientists and with tho psalmist
that "wo aro fearfully and wonderfully
tnado." But I believe and I know that
God can and will got us bettor physical
equipment. Is it poasiblo for man to
make improvement in almost anything
and God not bo ablo to mako impiovo-
monts iu mans physical machmory?
Shall canal boat givo way to limited ex
press train? Shall slow letter glvo placo

and Now York within a minuto of com

God, who mado tho man who docs these
things, not bo ablo to improvo tho man
himself with infinito velocities and in
finite mnltipllcation? Beneficent Death
comes in and makes tho necessary re
moval to mako way for theso supernat
ural improvements.
So also our slow process of getting in
formation must havo a substitute.
Through prolonged study wo learned tho
alphabet, and then wo learned to spell,

You aeo God has only just begun to
build you. Tho palaco of your nature
has only tho foundation laid, and part
of tho lower story, and only part of ono
window, but tho Great Architect has
mado his draft of what you will bo when
tho Alhambra ia completed. .Tohn was
right when ho said, "It doth not yet ap
Iioar what wo shall bo." Blessed bo
death! for it removes all tho hindrances.
And who has not all his lifo run against
hindrances? Wo cannot go far up nor
far down. If wo go far up wo get dizzy,
and if wo go far down wo getauffocated.
If mon would go high up they asoend
tho Mattorhoru or Mont Blano or Hima
laya, but what disasters havo boon re
ported as they camo tumbling down.
Or if thoy weut down too far, hark to
tho explosion of tho firedamps and boo
tlio disfigured bodies of tho ioor minora
at tho bottom of tho coal shaft.
Thon thero aro tho cllmatologlcal hin
drances. "Wo run against unpropltlous
weather of all sorts. Wtntor blizzard
and summer bcorch, aud each season
seems to hatch a broood of iU own dis
orders. Tlio summer spreads ltswluga
and hatches out fevers and sunstrokos,
and spring aud autumn spread their

wo get being compelled to chooso be
tween invitations, between weddings,
botwecn friendly groups, between three
or four places wo would liko to bo in
tho same morning, or tho Bamo noon, or
tho samo evening. Whilo death may
not open opportunity to bo in many
places at tho samo timo, eo easy and o
quick and bo inctantancous will bo tho
Iransferenco tliat it will amount to
tbout tho samo thing. Quicker than I
tan speak this sentence you will bo
among your glorified kindred, atnong
tho martyrs, among tho apostles, in the
gato, on tho battlements, at tho temple,
and now from world to world as soon
as a robin hops from ono treo branch to
another tree branch. Distance no hin
drance. Immensity easily compassed.
Scmiomnlpresencel "But," says some
ono, "1 cannot seo how God ia going to
reconstruct my body in tho resurrec
tion." Oh, that will bo very easy as compared
with what ho has already dono with
your Ixrly four or six or ten times. All
scientists tell us that tho human body
changes entirely ouco in seven years, so
that if you aro twenty-eight years of ago
you h..vo now your fourth body. If you
aro forty-two years of ago you have had
bIx bodies. If you aro seventy years of
aged you havo had ten bodies. Do you
not, my unbelieving friend, think if God
could build for you four or flvo or ten
bodies ho could really build for you ono
moro to bo called tho resurection body?
Ayol to mako that resurection body
will not requiro half as much ingenuity
and power as those other bodies you
have had.
Is it not easier for a sculptor to mako
a statuo out of Bilont clay than it would
be to makp a statuo out of somo mate
rial that is alive and moving, and run
ning hither and thither? Will it not bo
easier for God to make tho resurrection
body out of the silent dust of the crum
bled body than it was to mako your body
over five or six or eight times whilo it
was in motion walking, climbing, fall
ing or rising? God has already on your
four or five bodies bestowed ten times
moro oinnipotenco than he will put upon
tho resurrection body. Yea, wo have
the foundation of the resurrection body
in us now. Surgeons and physiologists
say thero aro parts of tho human body tho
uses of which they caunot understand.
They aro scaiching what theso parts
wero mado for, but havo not found out.
I can tell them. Thoy aro tho prelim
inaries of tho resurrection body. God
does not mako anything for nothing.
Tho uses of thoso now surplus parts of
tho body will bo demonstr tied when tho
glorified form ia constructed.
DEATH 18 KO nOBQOBLIN.
Now, if Death clears tho way for all
this, why paint him n3 a hobgoblin?
Why call him tho King of Terrors? Why
think of him as a great spook? Why
sketch him with skeleton and arrows, and
standing on a bank of dark waters?
Why havo children bo frightened at his
name that theydaro not go to bed alone,
and old men havo their teeth chatter lest
somo shortness of breath hand them over
to tho monster? All tho ages havo been
busy in maligning Death, hurling repnl
sivo motaphors at Death, slandering
Death. Oh, for tho sweet breath of
Easter to como down on tho earth.
Bight after tho vernal equinox, and
when tho flowers aro beginning to
bloom, well may all nations with song
and congratulation and garlands cele
brate tho resurrection of Christ nnd our
own resurrection whon tho timo is gom
by, nnd tho trumpota pour through the
flying clouds tho harmonies that shall
wako tho dead. By tho empty niche of
Joseph's mausoleum, by tho rocks that
parted to let tho Lord como through, lot
our ideas of changing worlds bo forever
revolutionized.
If what I havo been saying is true
how differently wo ought to think uf
our friends departed. Tlio lxdy they
havo put off li only as when ontering a
hall lighted nnd resounding with musi
cal bands, you leavo your hat and cloak

onr departed ones liave been introduced
to all tno celobriticB of heaven.
Somo ono has said to them: "Let me

Wero your departed ones fond of mu

What Raphaels pointing out skies with
all colors wrought into chariot wheels',

Wero they fond of poetry? What eter

looking np at them sailing on over calm
seas, undor skies that nover frowned

Further, if what I havo been saying is
true, we should trust tho Loid and bo
thrilled with tho fact that our own day
of escape cometh. If our lived wero go

want to tako ten million years of lifo

Christian friends, wo cannot afford al
ways to stay down in tho cellar of our
Father's houso. Wo cannot nlways bo

nlways bo tuning our violins for tho

not afford always to stand out hero in

OPEN THE OATKS OF HEAVEN.
Ushers of heaven! Open tho gates!
Swing them clear back on their pearly
hinges! Let the celestial lmric rain on

dens of the king breathe on ua their aro
matics ! Let our redeemed ones just look
out and give us ono glanco of their glo
rified faces! Yea, there they aro now!
I Eeo them. But I cannot stand tho
vision. Close tho gato, or our oyes will
be quonched with tho overpowering
brightness. Hold back tho song, or our
ears will nover again caro for earthly
anthem. Withdraw the perfumo, or we
shall swoon in tho fragrance that human
nostril was never made to breathe.
All theso thoughts aro suggested as we
stand this Easter morn amid the broken
rocks of tho Savionr's tomb. Indeed, 1
know that tomb has not been rebuilt,
for I stood in December of 1889 amid
tho ruins of that tho most famous sepul
cher of all time. Thero aro thousands
of tombs in our Greenwood and Laurel
nill and Mount Auburn with more pol
ished stono and moro elaborate masonry
and moro foliaged surroundings, but as
I went down tho steps of the supposed
tomb of Christ on my return from Mount
Calvary I said to myself: "This ia tho
tomb of all tombs. Around this stand
moro stupendous incidents than abound
any gravo of all tho woiM sinco death
entered It."
THE SEPULCHEll OP CHRIST.
1 could not breathe easily for over
mastering emotion as I walked down
tho four crumbling steps till wo camo
abreast of tho nicho in which I think
Christ was buried. I mcj'ured tho
sepulcher and fouud it fourteen and 11
half feot long, eight feet high, nine feet
wide. It is a family tomb and seema to
havo been built to hold flvo bodies. But
I rejoico to say that tho tombvras empty
and tho door of the rock was gone aud
tho sunlight streamed in. Tlio day that
Christ roso and camo forth tho sc pulchor
was demolished lore ver and intiowel of
earthly masonry can over lcbuild it.
