Sermon by
CHARLES T.
RUSSELL,
Pastor Brooklyn
Tabernacle.
Cm i . i.m ... i i ii i i i i '.QOO
Sundny, Oct. 24. Pastor Russell of
the Brooklyn Tabcrnnclo prenched to
day from the text, "Grieve not tho
boly Spirit of God, by which you woro
scaled unto the day of deliverance-"
(Ephcslans Iv, SO). He said:
Most evidently our text Is not ad
dressed to the heathen, who know not
God, nor to tho masses of Christendom
oven, but merely to those who come to
an Intimate acquaintance with tho
Lord and who hnvo received his holy
Spirit ns a seal, mark, evidence, proof,
that they by and by will attain the
fruition of their hopes the completion
of their redemption, their absolute? de
liverance from sin and death' condi
tions. Most assuredly no ono could
grlcvo tho holy Spirit who had not re
ceived It I
c Tho expression, holy Spirit of God, Is
hero used exactly In the same sense as
If wo wcro speaking to n dear earthly
friend, whose 'sympathy, fellowship,
favor wo had learned to esteem very
highly. Of such wo might say In very
similar language, If you do so and so,
It would nssurodly wound nnd grlovo
tho spirit of your dearest friend. Tho
Intimation would be that you would no
longer have his esteem nnd favor ns
before; that the reprehended conduct
would cnuno more or less of a broach
between you nnd your friend. It would
not menu tlmt his acquaintance would
necessarily be cut forever, and that ho
would become your enemy. Instead of
your friend. It would mean, rnthor.
that having been your friend lie would
esteem you no longer worthy of tho
same degree of fellowship and confi
dence ns before. Ho would no longer
treat you as n dear and Intlmnto
friend, nnd cauimunlcnto to you his
plans nnd arrangements along various
linos. Hq might still speak ns bo
pnssed by, and treat you In every way
kindly, yet there would bo a difference,
n coolness, n separation, a cloud, be
tween. If you esteemed tho lovo of
your friend, his fellowship, his Inter
est In nil of your nffnlrs, you would
assuredly be continually on guard to
do nothing that might wound, offend,
grieve him and nllcnnto his sympathy
nnd fellowship especially If ho wcro
on n higher plane of wealth or honor
or Intelligence tlmn yourself, und one,
therefore, whoso patronage, advice and
counsel you needed nnd desired.
This, we take It, Is tho thought be
hind tho Apostlo's word "grlcvd' in
our text. It Is closely allied with tho
thought of offending our best friend,
our Creator, our Heavenly Father. Wo
nro not to get tho thought that tho
great Creator of the Universe could bo
actually caused sorrow, grief, repin
ing, imln, by nuy conduct of ours. Ho
is too great nnd wc aro too Insignia
cant. Yet our Heavenly Pother takes
note of us as a world of mankind. Ho
has provided for our relief from sin
and Its penalty, denth. Ho is specially
Interested In those who havo responded
to his gracious proffers. "Like as a fa
ther pltleth Ma children, so the Lord pit
Icth them that reverence him" (Psalm
clil, 13 1. Ilia pity extended beyond
this even to love, when wo heartily
accepted his favor and inndo full con
secration of our little nil to him. It
was then that he wuh pleased to seal
us, to give uh the murk or stamp of
Bonshlp, to evidence to us that we havo
been begotten ngnln to a New Nature,
to Immortality, to glory with himself
if so be that wc continue faithful to
our vow of consecration.
The Lord's Jewell.
As a father he watches over tho In
terests of tulti consecrated vlasw. Al
though, as the Sulpturos say, they nro
"few," he cstlutiites them very highly
nnd, amongst other precious names,
gives to til we Kuiirt of God the tltlo of
"Jewel." The experiences of tho pres
ent life are Intended to polish these
Jowels-to preMire them for u heavenly
setting lu the Itemirrcctlon Morning.
"They Mmll be mine, snltb the Lord of
bohtfi. In that day when 1 make up my
Jewels" (Maine hi ill. 17).
As (he lupldnry Hoc washes the dla
iiiQiid which hiiH Uveti picked from tho
miry clay; us he then critically exam
ines It to uoto Its very beat possibili
ties; as he then gives direction to the
workman respeetlug its cutting and
subsequently respecting Its polishing,
wo have the Dlvluo illustration of how
God's providence through the boly
Spirit, tho holy Power of God, over
rules nnd guides iu all the experiences
of this consecrated "Jewel" class. It is
required of them that they exerclso
faith nud lenru to rejolco In trlhula
tlons. as well as in more pleasurable
experiences, knowing that they are in
God'a band, and that, if tbey are sub
missive to blm. he will "work out for
them a far more exceeding nnd eter
nal weight of glory" through the dis
appointments, the frictious, the sor
rows, the tears, the anguish even, of
earthly experiences Jf these be en
dured for righteousness' sake.
Coming down to human comprehen
sion, the Lord represents himself as
pleased or displeased, rejoiced or griev
ed, nfter the manner of the most noble
of the human family. Hecause of bis
generosity, hlx benevolence, his desire
to do good unto all. nud especially to
the household of fnltb, nnd particular
lr to the fnlly consecrated, our Crea
tor takes pleasure In the working out of
a great Plan of Salvation for humanity.

Grieving the Spirit.
Text, "Grieve Not the Holy
Spirit of God, by Which You
Were Scaled Unto the Day of
Deliverance" (Ephcsians iv, 30).
ooO . i. iiH.i- .... . iQ
For six thousand yenrs our loving
Creator has permitted Adam's dlsobc
dlcnco to bring upon bis family n terri
ble rclgu of sin nud death. God sym
pathizes with tho "groaning creation"
and has promised assistance deliver
ance. But his Wisdom determines that
the lesson of the sinfulness of sin and
tho bitterness of its fruit must first bo
thoroughly learned. Then tho deliver
nnco to righteousness and llfo may be
tho better appreciated and all danger
of n reversion to sin be avoided, and
an eternity of righteousness and bless
ing result.
Preparation for this great program
ban not been swift, nor Is baste neces
sary. The lesson of sin nud its bitter
fruitage has conio to tho world during
six thousand years, though no single
member of the race needed or received
so prolonged a lesson. Tho first step
of recovery was accomplished by our
ncdccmcr's sacrifice of himself. Tho
second step has been In procccs since
Pentecost (tho calling nud ncceptlng
of tho nntltyplcnl Lovltes) specially
amongst these of tho nntltyplcnl priest
hood, who now rejoicingly suffer with
tho groat High Priest. They lay down
their lives In his service, under the
promise tlmt In the First Resurrection
they shall be with their Itcdccmor nnd
shnro his glory and, ns n "royal priest
hood" under him. rule. Instruct, nnd
ovcry way assist In uplifting tho
"groaning creation" during' tho Millen
nial Kingdom of the great Mediator,
whoso members they will be. This stop
in tho Divine Plan Is spoken of in tho
Scriptures ns "The Mystery of God;"
that tho Church now being selected nro
"members" of Tho Christ. As soon ns
this "mystery hidden from ages" shall
bo completed nnd the Church bo glori
fied, with her Lord, then our prayer
nnd the prayer of our Redeemer will
begin to have fulfillment "Thy King
dom come; thy will be dono on earth
as It Is done In henven.".
Not all who have nnmed tho nnmo of
Christ; not nit who hnvo turned nway
from sin; not all who havo mado full
consecration of themselves even will
attain to tho glorious "things which
God lint It In reservation for them that
lovo him." Only such of the conse
crated ns learn lu the School of Christ
tho great lesson of supremo lovo to
God nnd heart obedience to his will
(outward ohedleiico also to tho extent
of ability) only these will be nccouuted
worthy to share lu the Kingdom. It
Is these that are mentioned In our text
ns sealed by the holy Spirit of prom
ise nnd waiting for tho resurrection
morning, the deliverance dny, tho day
of attainment to the glorious things
which God has lt reservntlon for tho
faithful. As a loving parent watches
tho progress of his child lu school, so
the Heavenly Father Is Interested In
our progress, nud desirous tlint wo
shall make our calling and our election
suro to tho heavenly glories. Hence
ho pictures himself as pleased with our
progress and ns grieved when we fall to
learn tho necessary lessons. Ho Irns
promised us n place with our Lord In
his Millennial Kingdom Throne, but
tho promise Is n conditional one. Our
Redeemer expresses It thus: "To him
tlint ovcrcometh will I grant, to sit
with mo in my Throne." Thus wo got
n glimpse of God's special Interest In
each of his consecrated, spirit-begotten
children. They have his love and favor
and smile lu proportion ns they follow
tho Redeemer's footsteps. A fnlluio
to walk iu this way griovos tho Lord's
spirit or figuratively brings his frown
instead of his smile and tenda to scp
arato us from his love.
Tho child of God should seek to over
live In the sunshine of tho Heavenly
Father's favor. Whatever clouds orlso
between such nnd their very best
earthly friends will le light nllllctlons
Indeed. If they still nbldo in fellowship
with tho Heavenly Father nnd the Son.
through the holy Spirit the spirit of
love, the spirit of Truth, the spirit of
obedience, the spirit of solf sacrifice.
Indeed, If earthly friendships nnd
earthly loves be entirely severed
through faithfulness to the Lord, tho
loyal one may reach the place where
ho can "rejoice in tribulation also."
Sealed by the Holy Spirit.
A seal Is an nuthorltntlve mark.
With n signature a seal implies that
the contract of the document Is uo
longer open, uo longor n more pro
posal, but an accomplished, finished
agreement or bargain. In olden times,
seals were usually Impressed In wax
while It was yet seft: tho seal Itself
represented a coat of arms or some
thing representing the personality of
tho one who used It. Tho pressure
upon the soft wax was gradually In
Teased nnd then held firmly until the
wax had cooled, hardened, and permit
ted the removal of the seal, without
Injury to the impress which then was
clearly revealed. This is the mental
picture which our text brings before
our minds. God our Creator, our Fa
ther. Impresses upon our willing hearts
bv his holy Spirit his own character
likeness, which Is specially exemplified
for us In the words and doings of our
Redeemer and the apostles who walk
ed In his steps of devotion to God and
to righteousness and in self sacrifice In
the Interest of otfiers.

The Scallna Operation.
God's holy Spirit, lu effecting this
sealing of our hearts, lu making thin
impress of the Divine character upon
us as New Creatures, uses various
means. One of these is the Word of
God, Eomctlmes called "the sword of
the Spirit." Its Instructions, oneour
ngemeuts. warnings and promises con
stitute n power of God upon the hearts
of those who love righteousness nud
hate Iniquity nnd who nre striving to
serve the Lord with willing nnd self
sacrltlclng hearts. The Word of God
may reach others and Influence them
more or less this wny or that, but only
upon this one special class docs It exer
cise this scaling power. Another agen
cy for the Impressing of the Divine
will, "the mind of Christ," the holy
Splrlt, upon our henrts is God's Prov
idences. These, however, can be right
ly understood only by those enlighten
ed by tho Word, the Bible, nnd cnu be
rightly npplled only by tho meek, the
humble the trustful, who hnvo made
the consecration nnd nro seeking to
make their culling nnd election sure.
The holy Spirit uses these different
mentis of developing In the consecrated
ones tho mind of Christ, the spirit or
God. the holy Spirit; nnd the settling
thus effected mnrks each Individual us
one of the Lord's "Jewels." one or lite
Lord's "members." In preparation rr
n share with the Lord lu the heavenly
Kingdom. There Is n blessing experi
enced In conjunction with the sealing
Itself-a Joy. n pence, a rest of heart,
which the world can neither give nor
take away. However, these blessings
of the present time are merely n fore
tnste or "enrnost" of the grent Inherit
mice which U to be theirs with the
completion of their experiences In the
School of Christ. In the ond of tlilf
nge nil of these faithful onos. "imt

glorious likeness of the Redeemer
Tlmt wonderful moment will be In (he
enrly dawn or the Millennial Dm
which Is the Dny or Redemption, the
Day or Deliverance.
Deliverance For tho World.
But while tho Church will bo the
first to be hlewed In that doltvcrntu
day, tho Scripture assure us that nth
era also will bo dellvered-"lhe grn.ii)
lng creation." But tho Church will b
first every wny, nud then through It -tho
Body r Christ, tho blessings it
restitution opportunities will be extPti-'
ed to nil others. That will be earth
great Dollvorntno Dny or. an shown In
the Jewish typss, It will be the tin"
typical .lubllee Year, lu which the
world will be reloaded rrom Its bond
ago to sin nnd death. As St. .lames do
Clares (I. ISi the Church Is "a kind or
first-rrults unto God or His creatures."
But the first-rrults will have n great
pre-eminence. In that the First Resur
rection will bring them spiritual per
fection, ns well ns n shnro In the Mil
lennial Kingdom. Thelra will be an In
stantaneous rhnuge. while the oppor
tunities or the world will Ikj that or
gradual uplifting from sin nnd death
conditions to the perfection of man
hood, such as Adam enjisl before lie
sinned, nnd in a worldwide Kden
home.
The grieving of the holy Spirit, then,
would slgnir.v t hot l lie sonllng proe
cs6ch would discontinue; that tho work
would not be accomplished; that the
Word nnd Providences of God would
not prove effective in the heart which
had grieved the Spirit. In other word,
it Is required that this work of soallng
shall be fully with our consent (co
operation), else It ennnot proceed. The
Apo6tle Intimates that self-will on our
port, or n recurrence to tho spirit of
the world, would have this blighting
effect. This U pltown In tho context
preceding, which should bo fully stud
led.
it Is not our wish to dlscourngo nnv
body In any measure of well doing. On
tho contrary, we encourage nil with
the Scriptural ossnrutue that not n
single net of kindness done In one or
the least or the Lord's dlsclplos vHI
fall of Hh reward even n cup or cold
water. It Is our duty, however, to ea'l
attention, not only to the grandeur (
tho prlzo which the Lord has set le
fore bis Church, but also with equat
persistency to call attention to the
particular terms upon which It may be
secured. It is not In vain that the
Apostle wrote. "If ye do these things,
yo shall never fall, for so nn entninv
shall be ministered unto you nbun
dantly Into the everlasting Klncdntn
of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."
In the very same connection tbe Apos
tle calls our attention to some who
have grieved the boly Spirit where
with they were sealed unto the day of
deliverance, eaying: "But he that lack
ctb these things Is blind nnd cannot
sec afar off (has lost his spiritual slghd
and has forgotten that be was purged
from bis old Bins" (II Peter I. R Hi.
So, then, dear brethren, let us give the
more earnest heed to the Word of the
Lord, lest we should let tbe blessed
message and blefscd influence dip.
