Olia neen.t Yoht Race Importance of
the Lifeboats One That Can Lire In
Any Sea A Sure, Kefuge In the Storm
or Lire.
Bhooklyn, Oct. 22. After preaehiittr
on nearly 4X000 different subjects anil
being closoly follQwod by tho printing
press ifcr about 423 years Rev. Dr. Tal.
ma'e still seems to find new subjects
that liavo.nevec been.preached on. This
forenoon he chose ifor his subject "Un
safe Lifeboats," tho text being Acts
xjcvii, 82, "Then tho soldiers cut off the
ropes or tho boat and let her fall off."
While your faces are yet somowhat
bronzed by attendance on tho Interna
tion: I boat contest between the Vigilant
and ho Valkyrie I address you. Good
things when thero is no betting or dissi
pation, thoso outdoor sports. We want
more fresh air and breezines3 in our
temperaments and our religion. A stale
,arul lpwond lugubrious, religion may
.fr.tyej.lono for other timesf yet twill not
dp for these. But my text calls our at
tention to a boat of a different Bort, and
Instead of the Atlantic It is tho Mediter
ranean, and instead of not wind enough,
-ahe-crcwe-ofthe Vigilant-andValky-rio
tho otherday complained, there is
too much wind and tho swoop of a Eu
roalydon. I am not calling your attention so
much to tho famous ship on which Paul
was tho distinguished passenger, but to
'the lifeboat of 'that ship which no one
seems to notice. For a fortnight the
main vessel had been tossed and driven.
For that two weeks, the account says,
tho passengers had "continued fasting."
I suppose the salt water, dashing over,
had sp6iletl tho sea biscuit, and the pas
sengers were seasick anyhow.
Tho sailors said, "It is no use; this ship
must go down," and they proposed
among themselves to lower the lifeboat
anil get into it and take tho chances for
reaching Bhore, although they pretended
they were going to get over the sides of
the big ship and down into tho lifeboat;
only to do sailors' duty. That was not
nallorlike, for the sailors that I have
known were all intreDid fellows and
would rather go down with the ship I
than do such n mean thing as thoso Jack I
Tars or my text attempted.
When on the Mediterranean last June
the Victoria sank under the ram of the
Camperdown, the most majestio thing
about that awfnl scene was that all the
sailors staid at their posts doing their
duty. As a class all over the world sail
ors are valorous, but these sailors of the
text were exceptional and pretended to
do duty while they were really preparing
for flight in the lifeboat. But these ' 'ma
rines" on board sea soldiers had in es
pecial charge a little, missionary who
was turning the world upside down, and
when these marines saw tho trick the
sailors were about to play they lifted the
cutlasses from tho girdle and chopl chqpl
went those cutlasses into the ropes that
held the lifeboat, and splashl it dropped
into the sea.
My text describes it, "Tho soldiers cut
off the ropes of the boat and let her fall
off." As that empty lifeboat dropped
and was capsized on a sea where for .two
weeks winds and billows had been iin
battle I think that many on board the
main vessel felt their last hope of ever
reaching home had vanished. In that
tempestuous sea, a, small boat could not
have lived fire minutes.
My subject is "Unsafe Lifeboats."
We cannot exaggerate the importance of
tho lifeboat. All honor to the memory
of Lionel Lukin, the coach builder of
Lpng Acre, London, Tvho invented tho
first lifeboat, and I do pot blame him for
ordering put upon his tombstone in Kent
the Inscription that you may still read
there:
"This Lionel Lukin was the first who
built a lifeboat and was the original in
ventor of that principle of safety by
which many lives and much property
have been preserved from shipwreck,
and he obtained for it the king's patent
In tiio-year 178(5."
A WORD OF CAUTION.
All honor to tho memory of Sir Wil
liam Hillary, who, living in tho islo of
Man. and after assisting with his own
hand in tho rescue of C05 lives of the
shipwrecked, stirred tthe English parlia
ment to quick action in the construction
of lifeboats. Thanks to God for the
sublime and pathetic and divine mission
of the lifeboat. No ono will doubt its
important mission who has read of tho
wreck of the Amazon in the bay of Bis
cay, of the Tweed running on the reefs
of tho gulf of Mexico,, or of the Ocean
Monarch on tho jcoaat of Wales, or of tho
Birkenhead on 'the Cape of Good Hope,
or of the Royal Charter on the coast of
Anglesea, or of tho Exmouth on the
Scotch breakers, or of the Cambria on
the Irish coast, or of tho Atlantic on the
rocks of Nova Scotia, or of tho Loxing
ton on Long Island sound.
To add still further to the Importance of
the lifeboat, remember there ore at least
8,000,000 men following tho sea, to say
nothing of the uncounted millions this
moment ocean passengers. Wo "land
lubbers," as sailors call us. may not
know tho difference between a marlino
pike and a ringbolt, or anythinabout
heaving a loir, or rigging out a flying
ibboom, or fnrllng a topsail, but wo all
realize to greater or less extent the im
portance of a lifeboat la every marine
equipment.
But do wo feel tho importance of a
lifeboat In tho matter of tho soul's rescue?
"There are times when we all feel that wo
are out at sea, and as many disturbing
and anxious questions strike ua as waves
'truck that vessel against the sides of
which tho lifeboat of my text dangled.
iuestion about tho church. Questions
About the world. Questions about Gdd.
Questions about our eternal destiny.
Every thinking man and woman has
these questions, and 1b proportion as
they are thinking peoplo do theso que

on thinking, ho would not havo built
under this wheelhonso of tho skull this
thinking machine, which halts not m its
revolutions from cradle to grave. Even
the midnight does not stop the thinking
machine, for when wo are in dreams wo
are tmnmng, although we do not think
as well. All of us who are. accustomed
to thinking want to reach some solid
shore of safety and satisfaction, and if
any one has a good lifeboat that wo may
honorably take I wish he would un
swing it from the davits and let us get
into it and put for shore.
But I give you fair notice I must first
examine the lifeboat before I risk my
buui .u or aavise you to risk your 6oul
in it. All the splendid Ramsgate life
boats, and Margate lifeboats, and. South
Shields lifeboats, and American lifeboats
wore tested before beinir nnt intn nw.
ticalmsoastothelr buoyancy and speed
and stowage and self righting capacity.
And when you offer my soul a lifeboat I
must first test it.
THE THKOSOPHIC LIFEBOAT.
Hero is a splendid new lifeboat called
Theosophy. It has only a littlo while
been launched, although some of the
planks are really several thousand years
old, and.Jrom a worm eaten ship, but
they are- painted over and look new.
They are really fatalism and pantheism
of ,olden time. But we must fonret that
"and call them theosophy. Tho Grace
uarung of this lifeboat was an oars
woman by the name of Mme. Blavat
Bky, but. the oarswoman now is Annie
Besant. So many .are getting aboard
the boat it is worthy of examination,
both because of the safety of those who
havo entered it-anaVbeoause we ourselves
are Invited to get in.
Its theory is that everything is God.
Horse and star and tree and man are
parts of God. We havo three souls an
animal soul, a human soul, a spiritual
soul. The animal soul becomes, after
awhile, a wandering thing, trying to ex
press itself through mediums. It enters
beasts or enters a human being, and
when you find an effeminate man it is
because a woman's soul has got into the
man, and when you find a masculine
woman it is because a man's soul has
taken possession of a woman's body.
If you find a woman has become a
platform speaker and likes politics, sho
is -possessed by a dead politician, who
40 years ago made the platform
quake. The soul keeps wandering on
and on, and may have 50 or innumer
able different forms, auJ fLially is
absorbed In God. It was God at (he
start and will be God at the last. But
who gives tho authority for the truth of
such a religion? Some beings living in a
cave in central Asia. They are invisible
to tho naked eye, but they cross conti
nents and seas in a flash.
My Baptist brother Dr. Haldeman says
that a theosophist in New York was vis
ited by one of these mysterious beings
from central Asia. The gentleman knew
it from tho fact that the mysterious be
ing left his pocket handkerchief, em
broidered with his name and Asiatio res
idence. Tho most wonderful achieve
ment of tho thonrophists Is that they
keep out of the insane asylum. They
prove the truth of the statement that no
religion ever announced was so absurd
but it gained disciples.
Societies in tho United States and Eng
land and other lands have been estab
lished for the promulgation of theosophy.
Instead of needing the revelation of a
Bible you can havo these spirits from a
cavo in central Asia to tell you all you
ought to know, and after you leave this
life you may become a prima donna, or
arobin, or a gazelle, or a sot, or a prize
fighter, oi a Hero4, or a Jezebel, and bo
be enabled to have great variety of
experience, rotating through the uni
verse, now rising, now falling, now
shot out in a straight line and now de
scribing a parabola, and on and on, and
up and up, and down and down, and
round and round. Don't you see? Now,
that theosophic lifeboat has been
launched. It proposes to tako you off
tho rough sea of doubt into everlasting
quietude. How do you like tho lifeboat?
My opinion Is you had better imitate
the mariners of my text and cut off the
ropes of that boat and let her fall off.
A BOAT THAT LEAKS.
Another lifeboat tempting us to enter
Is made up of many planks of good
works. It Is really a beautiful boat
almsgiving, practical sympathies for
human suffering, righteous words and
righteous deeds. I must admit I like the
looks of the prow, and of the rowlocks
and of the paddles, and of tho steering
gear, and of many who are thinking to
trust themselves on her benches. But
the trouble about that lifeboat is it leaks.
I never knew a man yet good enough to
earn heaven by his virtues or generosl-
If thero bo ono person hero present
,on this blessed Sabbath all of whoso
thoughts have been always right, all of
whose actions have always been right.and
oil of whoso words havo always been
right.lethlm stand up, or If already stand
ing let him lift his hand, and I will know
that ho lies. P.vul liad it about right
when he said. "By tho deeds of the law
shall no flesh living bo justified." David
had It about right when ho said, "Thero
la nono that doeth good, no not one."
The old book bad it about right when
It said, "All havo finned and come short
of tho glory of God." Let a man get off
that little steamer called The Maid of
the Mist, which sails up to the foot of
Niagara falls, and then climb to the top
of the falls oa the descending floods, for
ho can do It easier than any man over
will bo able to climb to heaven by lot
eood works.
If your thoughts havo always been ex
actly right, and your words exacUy
right, and your deeds always exactly
right you can go up to the gate of beav
fn and you need not even knock for ad
mlttance, but open it yourself and posh
Seansels oat of your way and go up and
Skoono of tho front seat But you

trusting In is handsomer than nny yawl
or pinnace or yacht or cutter that over
sped out of a boathouso or hoisted Bail
foraraco. But she leaks. Trust your
soul In that, and you will jro to to the
bottom. She leaks. So I" Imitate the
manners of the text, and with a cutlass
Btrike the ropes of the boat and let her
fall off.
Another lifeboat is Christian Incon
sistencies. Tho planks of this boat aro
composed of the split planks f ship
wrecks. That prow is made out of liy-,
pocrisy from tho life of a man who pro-'
fe&sed one thing and really was another.
One oar of this lifeboat was the false
hood of a church member, and the other
oar was the wickedness of some minister
of the gospel, whose iniquities were not
tor a long while found out Not one
plank from tho oak of God's eternal
truth In all that lifeboat. All tho planks,
by universal admission, are decayed nnd
crumbling and .fallen apart andaotten
and ready to sink.
"Well, well," you say, "no ono will
want to got into that lifeboat." Oh, my
friend, you are mistaken. That Is tho
most popular lifeboat ever constructed.
That is tho most popular lifeboat ;ever
launched. Millions of peoplo want to
get into It They jostle each other to
get tho best Beat in the boat. You could
not keep them back though you stood at
the gunwales with a club, as on ourshlp
Greece in a hurricane, ond tho steerage
passengers were determined to come up
on deck, where they would have been
washed off, and the officers stood at tho
top of the stairs clubbing them back.
Even by such violence as that you could
not keep people from jumping into tho
most popular lifeboat, mado of 'church
member inconsistencies.
In times of revival when sinners flock
into tho inquiry room the most of them
are kept from deciding aright becauso
they know so many Christians who aro
bad. Tho inquiry room becomes a
world's fair for exhibition of all the
frailties of church members, so that if
you believe all Is thero told you you
would be afraid to enter a church lest
you get -your pockets picked or get
knocked down.
This is the way they talk; "I was
cheated out of $500 by a leader of a
Bible class." "A Sunday school teacher
gossiped about me and did her best to
destroy my good name." "I had a part
ner in business who swamped our busi
ness concern by his trickery and then
rolled up his eyes in Friday night prayer
meeting, as though ho were looking for
Elijah's chariot to make a second trip
and tako up another passenger."
But what a cracked and water logged
and gaping Beamed lifeboat the incon
sistencies of others! Put me on a shingle
mid-Atlantic and leave me thero rather
than in such a yawl of spiritual confi
dence. God forbid that I should get
aboard it, and lept some of you make the
mistake of getting into it I do as the
mariners did on that Mediterranean ship
when tho sailors were about to get into
the unsafe lifeboat of tho text and lose
their lives in that way. "Then the sol
diers cut off the ropes of tho boat and
let her fall off."
NOT LEFT TO CHANCE.
"Well," says some one, "this subject
is very discouraging, for wo must have
a lifeboat if wo are ever to get ashore,
and you have already condemned three."
Ah, it is becauso I want to persuade you
to tako tho only safe lifeboat. I will not
allow you tb be deceived and get on to
tho wild waves and then capsizo or sink.
Thank God, there is a lifeboat that will
take you ashore in safety, as sure as God
la God and heavon Is heaven. Tho keel
and ribs of this boat are made out of a
treo that was sot up on a bluff backiof
Jerusalem a good many years ago. Both
of the oars are made out of the same
tree. The rowlocks ore mado out of the
same tree. Tho steering gear Is mode
out of the same tree. The planks of It
were hammered together by the ham
mers of executioners who thought they
wero only killing a Christ, but wore
really pounding together an escape for
all imperiled souls of all ages.
It Is an old boat, but good as now,
though It has been carrying passengers
from sinking ships to firm shore forages
and has never lost a passenger, These
old Christians begin to smile because it
is dawning upon them what I mean.
The fact is that in this way years ago
they got off a wreck themselves, and I
do not wonder they smile. It Is not a
senseless giggle that means frivolity,
but it Is a smile like that on the faco of
Christians the moment thoy leave earth
for heaven yea, liko tho smile of God
himself when he had completed tho plan
for Baving tho world.
Right after that big tumble of the At
lantic ocean six or seven weeks ago on
tho beach at East Hampton I met the
captain of the life saving station and
said, "Captain, do you think a lifeboat
could livo in a sea liko that?" Although
the worst of it was over, tho captain re
plied, "No, I do pot think it could." But
this lifeboat of which I speak can live
In any sea and defies all breakors, and
all cyclones, and all equinoxes, and all
earth, and all tall. In 20 years tho life
saving apparatus along our Atlantic
coast saved the lives of over 43,000 of
the shipwrecked, but this lifeboat that I
commend has saved in.20 ytarsbundreds
of millions of the shipwrecked. Like
thoso newly Invented English lifeboats,
it is insubmergible, self righting and

A BTANCH CRAFT.
But whllo in my text we stand watch
ing tho marines with their cutlasses .pre
paring to sever tho ropes of tho lifeboat
and let her fall off, notice the poor equip
ment Only ono lifeboat Two hundred
and seventy-six passengers, as Paul
counted them, and only one lifeboat.
My text uses the singular and not tho
plural, "Qut off the ropes of tho boat"
I do not suppose it would havo held
moro than 80 peoplo, though loaded to
tho water's edgo.
I think by marine law all our modern
vessels have enough lifeboats to hold all
tho crew and all tho passengers in case
of emergency, but the marines of my
text wero standing by tho only boat, and
that n small boat, and yet 276 passengers.
But what thrills me through and through
is tho fact that though we aro wrecked
by sin and troublo and thero is only ono.
lifeboat, that boat Is largo enough to
hold all who aro willing to get into it.
Tho gospel hymn expresses it:
All may como, whoever will;
This Man receives poor sinners (till.
But I must haul In that statement a
little. Room for all In that lifeboat,
with just ono excoption. Not yon I do
not mean you, but thero Is one excop
tion. Thero have been coses where ships
wero in trouble, and tho captain got all
the passengors and crow into tho life
boats, but there was not room for tho
captain. He, through tho sea trumpet,
sheuted: "Shovo off now and pull 'for
the beach. Good by 1" And then the
captain, with pathetic and sublime solf
sacrifice, went down with tho Bhip. So
tho Captain of our salvation, Christ the
Lord, launches tho gospel lifeboat and
tells us all to get in, but ho perishes.
"It behooved Christ to suffer." Was
it not bo, ye who witnessed his agonizing
expiration? Si mon of Cyreno, was it not
so? Cavalry troops, whose horses pawsd
tho dust at tho crucifixion, was It not so?
Yo Marys who swooued away with the
sun of tho midday heavons, was it not
so? "By his stripes we aro healed." By
his death wo livo. By his sinking In tho
deep sea of suffering wo get off in a safe
lifeboat. Yes, wo must put into this
story a littlo of our own personality.
Wo had a ride in thatyery lifoboat from
foundered craft to solid shore.
Once on the rating ee&a I rowed,
Tho storm nas loud; the nljkt was dark.
The ocean yawned nnd rudely blow'd
Tho wind that tosstd my foundering bark.
But I got iuto the gospel lifeboat, and 1
got ashoro. No religious speculation for
mo. These higher criticism fellows do
not bother mo a bit. You may aBk me
60 questions about the sea, and about the
land, and about the lifeboat that I can
not answer, but one thing I know, I am
ashore, and I am going to stay ashoro, if
tho Lord by his grace will holp mo. 1
feel under me something so firm that I
try it with my right foot, and try It with
my left foot, and thon I try it with both
feot, and it Is so solid that I think It
must bo what tho old folks used to call
the Rode of Ages.
And be my remaining days on earth
many or fow I am going to spend my
timo in recommending tho lifeboat which
fetched mo here, a poor sinner saved by
grace, and in swinging the cutlasses
to sevor the ropes of any unsafe lifeboat
and let her fall off. My hearer, without
asking any questions, get into the gospel
lifeboat. Room I and yet thero Is room!
The biggest boat on earth is the gospel
lifeboat. You must remember tho pro
portion of things, and that the ship
wrecked craft is the wholo earth, and the
lifeboat must bo in proportion.
You talk about your Campanias, and
your Lucunias, and your Majesties, and
your City of New Yorks, but all of
them put together aro smallor than au
Indian's canoe on Schroon lake com
pared with this gospel lifeboat that is
largo enough to tako in all nations.
Room for ono and room for all. Get
lnl "How? How?" you ask.
Well, I know how you feel, for sum
mer before last on tho sea of Finland I
had tho same experience. Tho ship in
which we sailed could not venture near
er than a mile from shore, where stood
tho Russian palace of Peterhof, and we
bod to get iuto a small boat and be
rowed ashore. The water was rough,
and as we went down tho ladder at tho
sldo of tho ship wo hold firmly on to tho
railing, but In order to get into tho boat
we hod at last to let go.
How did I know that tho boat was
good and that tho oarswou wero suffi
cient? How did I know thut the Finland
sea would not swallow us with ono open
ing of JU crystal jaws? Wo had to trust,
and we did trust, aud our trust was well
rewarded. In the tamo way get Into this
gospel lifeboat Lei go! As long as you
hold on to any otUr hopo yon are im
periled, and you get wo advantago from
tho lifeboat, Let go! Does some one
.here aay, "I guess I will hold on a little
to my good works, or to n pious parent
age, or to something I can do in the way
of achieving my own balv-lion." No,
no, let gol Trust tho Captain, who
would not put you into n rickety or un
certain craft.
