Toledo, O., April 13. Pastor Rus sell, widely known through bis pub lished sermons, is here todny address ing Bible Students, and also-as usual, tbe public. Crowds seem anxious al ways to heur him. We report one of his discourses, from tbe text: "Humble your PASTOR. KUSSnU' selves therefore under the mighty hand of God, tbnt He may exult you In due time." 1 Peter 5:0. The Pastor declured that the Bible everywhere holds up the Lord Jesus Christ as the glorious Fattern of what Is most pleasing to, the Heavenly Fa ther, a Pattern therefore to he copied by all who would abide In God's favor. He reminded bis hearers that there are certain steps necessary before any can come into the favor of God, and properly be called His children, or said to be under His supervision and care, or be permitted to address nim In prayer, or to consider themselves heirs of His favors and blessings. This la made very clear by the Apostles and also by Jesus Himself, said the Pastor. The Apostles declare the necessity of nn Advocate with the Father before any can npproach Him, come Into Ills presence or receive any favor .from Him. Jesus .expired this same thought, saying, "No man comet U unto the Father, lint by Me." As a matter of fact, ' therefore, a comparatively small proportion of hu manity have uny of God's favors at the present-time, said tho Pastor. But wo rejoice In the breadth of tho Mes sage, which assures us that In God's "duo time" ull shull be brought to a knowledge of Messiah, uud privileged through Him to enjoy the gift of God everlasting life. But what is coming and what Is here now are two differ ent matters. No one has authority to make the Narrow Way a Broad Way, nor to say that many will find It when the Scriptures declare, "Few there bo that find It." Our consolation Is thut this Narrow Way leads to special glory, honor, Immortality and the DI yino Nature, and will develop a spe cial, elect class. Then subsequently, this select class will be used of tho Lord In blessing the non-elect many with n great, but Inferior lilesslng. The Pastor demonstrated that his text relates not to the world In gen eral, but merely to the consecrated few who during this Age hear the In vitation, accept It, and become foot step followers of Jesus. These bnvo their sins forgiven as a result of faith In tho precious blood of Christ and of consecration to do tho will of God. These then have the Redeemer ns their Advocate wllh the Futher, and nre ac cepted In the Relnved as His brethren. Theso nre the prospective members of tho Brldo of Christ, who by the Lord's1 grace may now suffer with their Redeemer in cross-bearing, and by and by share with Illin His glori ous Kingdom. Theso are begotten of the Father through the Holy Spirit, and thus become New Creatures In Christ. No longer are they to be classed as members of the human family, but ns spiritual sons of God, of n new order, higher than tbe angels, but not yet perfected. Their perfect ing cannot take place until their pro bationary trial shall have ended, and It will not end until death. In the glorious First Resurrection, therefore, these will bo perfect, as sons of God on the Divine plane, associates and Jolnt belrs with their Lord and Redeemer. To Those Our Text Applies. These are exhorted to come 'with boldness to the Throne of Heavenly Grace, to obtain mercy, and Dnd grace to help In every time of need. These, and only these, may know that their prayers are always heard. As Jesus said, "Their messengers do always have access to My Father's presence." (Mat thew 18:10.) The exhortations of the Apostle are to these alone not to the World. In our context the Apostle holds lip the Lord Jesus as the greut Pattern of humility, the example for nil of Ills followers, admonishing that they should walk In Ills steps, If they would have the Divine favor that He enjoys and attain with Him to Jolnt-helrshlp in His glorious Kingdom. Ho was rich, yet In obedience to the Father's will He laid aside the riches of Ills Heavenly estate, and became poor not merely appeared poor, Tie laid aside, or divested Himself of nil spirit con rv dition and glory, and took Instead hu man conditions. From being above the angels, He of His own volition took a nature and place "a little lower than the angels." And He did this, knowing It was only a preliminary step. He knew that the particular steps of self-denial and suf fering were to follow. He humbled Himself to become a man, because a man Adam had sinned, and through him a race bad come under sentence of death, and could not extricate Itself. Only an uncondemned man could re deem the condemned one. For this purpose Jesus left His glory, and "was found in fashion as a man." The Logos did not become a sinful man, a blemished or imperfect man. On the contrary, He was "holy, harm less, undeSled and separate from sin ners." Otherwise, He could not have been the Redeemer. Being sinless, bow ever, this perfect One would suffer all the more from the shame and Igno miny connected with the mission He undertook. . As It was not a babe, but a man, that had sinned and was to be redeem ed, therefore Jesus needed to wait un til He reached manhood's estate thirty years before He could begin His min istry. Promptly at thirty He made His consecration, and symbolized it by water Immersion at Jordan. Then He went forth, declaring tbe Message which He knew would be misunder stoodthe Message of God's Love, tbe Message that there must be a sacrifice for sin, the Message that He was the Sln-Offerlng, the Message that as a re sult of that Sin-Offering, blessed fruit age afterward would come, In the Mil lennial Kingdom, which would bless all the families of the earth. As He foreknew, mankind, even the best prepared the Jewish people were not ready for the Message. Thus, as He foresaw and as tho Scriptures foretold, they crucified Him Ignorant ly for as St. Paul declares: "Had they known It they would not have crucified the Lord of glory." (1 Corinthians 2:8.) St. Paul reminds us that we should consider Christ's undeservedness of persecution, lest we should be "weary and faint in our minds." ' Similar ex periences must to some extent come upon us. And If He who was perfect endured patiently, we who are Imper fect may well exercise great patience. And so in our text the exhortation is that we perceive how Jesus humbled Himself, and that we should think it a great privilege and pleasure similarly to experience humiliations. ThoiRewards of Humility and Loyalty. No doubt the Logos, "the Beginning of the Creation of God," the "First born of every creuture," the one by whom nil things were made, bad such loyalty to the Father thnt He would have been obedient, oven had no re ward been attuched to tho Invitation given Him. But, on the other hand, it would not have been consistent with kindness, love or Justice for the Father to demand of His Son such a sncrlllee. Justice can mnke no such demand. And If Lovo makes such a suggestion, it should properly back up the sugges tion with some promise of special favor or blessing. According to the Apostle, God did Just this. Ho In formed Ills Son that Ho would appre ciate such a sacrifice, and set before nim a Joy, a hope. Tho Apostle does not explain the de tails of that hope, but we niay Infer them: (1) The Joy of the Father's blessing in a superlative sense. (2) The Joy of bringing many sons of God to the plane of glory as Ills Itrldo class. (3 The Joy of rescuing tho world of mankind from sin, sickness, sorrow, pain, death, and of uplifting, or resurrecting all the willing and obe dient of the race to humnn.perfectlon, and ull that was lost by Adam, (4) An exaltation to a still higher station tint n that which Ho hail left. Iln would lie mude partaker of tho Divine nature, far above angels, principalities and powers, and above Mis own previ ous high station us tho Only Begotten of tho Fnthcr, the Logos the Word. -John 1:1-3. Here we nrb, dear brethren, with the Apostle's words and the full scope of his Inspired testimony before us, Ho tells us thut if we desire to bo of the glorious Class of more thun conquer ors, who will be honored by tho Re deemer, we must humble ourselves to tho doing of tho Divine will to tho best of our ability, as our Redeemer humbled Himself to do the Father's will perfectly. Not that the Futher will accept anything less than perfec tion, but thnt our Redeemer will make up to us by the Imputation of Ills righteousness for all that which we lack through our sharo In Adam's full and its consequence. In other words, If we have the same loyalty of henrt that tho Master hud, we will, do what we can, and so doing shall be accepta ble" to the Father, through tho Hon. 8stan's Course In Contrast. Notice, now, the coirtrust between Satan's course and that of the Lord Jesus. Satan took the opposito course from that which the Redeemer took. Instead of bumbling himself, willing to do everything that would bo pleas ing to the Father, be was proud, haughty, and sought to exult himself. Lucifer was rich beforo his rebellion, before he became Satan, tho advorsary of God. Yet he was not ho rich, had not so high a station, as tho Ixgos, who was the very chief of all of God'a creation, through whom the Divine energy operated In tho creation of all things that were made. Mark well the course of pride, that led to Satan's sin, and will ultimately lend to his degradation and destruc tion. Mark well also tho cotirso of Jesus, as It led Illm through obedience to humiliation, and then to the highest glory. Which example shall wo fol low? Which fate w'lll be ours? Shall we In humility walk In tbo footsteps of our Redeemer, and becomt His Joint-heirs in His glory, honor and Im mortality? or shall we take the other course of pride, and thus become disci ples of the Adversary, and learn of him, and reach his doom destruction in the Second Death? The Apostle Intimates that God tests us upon certain general lines, general principles operating His Government "He that humbleth himself shall be exalted, and be that exalteth himself shall be abased." Beloved bearers, It seems to me that, with these Illustra tions before us, it would be folly for us to permit the seeds of pride or per sonal ambition to take root in our hearts. Let us be diligently on the outlook to erndlcate everything of the kind, and be close students of our Mas ter, copying nis course. There Is a reason behind every Di vine command and regulation. Men may mnke arbitrary rules and condi tions without Justifiable cause, but we mny be sure thnt the grent Creator has a good reason for His every act and re quirement In the present case, we can readily discern the necessity for the Divine requirement of humility. The Lord Jesus and His Church nre in vited by the great Jehovah to the very highest position in the universe, next to nimself. Such an exaltation would be dangerous to any one possessed of a spirit of pride or selfish ambition. Who can tell at what time the smoldering fire might break Into a blaze and cause confusion and disorder? Consider Satan's case. What might have been the result had he been en trusted with so high a position as that now occupied by the glorified Jesus? There would have been genuine re bellion In Heaven of the kind Milton so foolishly Imagined. How we can see the wisdom of the Almighty in testing those whom He would exalt to His own Divine nature! Even His well-beloved Son was required to dem onstrate His faithfulness and loyalty nnto denth "even tho Ignominious denth of the cross." So the Apostle snys thnt it beenme God, 'In bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Captain oif their salvation perfect through sufferings" to prove Him per fect by the things which He suffered to demonstrate that the things which He had always professed and had al ways done, expressed the sentiment of His heart in the fullest and most nbso lute sense. Thus again we read. "Though ne were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered." (Hebrews 5:8.) Again we read that it was because of His faithfulness thnt God highly exnlted Him and gave Him a name above every name. If this was nccpssnry In the ease of our Re deemer, before tho Fnthcr could prop erly so highly exnlt Him, whnt shall we sny of Ills followers? Surely we must agree to the necessity for most thor ough tenting, proving, demonstrating, tho loyalty of the Church bofore they could be made partukers of the Divine nature and sharers of that neavenly glory. 2 Peter 1:4. . This is tho Import of our text: Re member tho heights, the glories Of the Heavenly culling which you have re ceived of God through Christ! Re member that you were by nature a child of wrath, even as others! Re member that once you were alienated from God through wicked works! Re member thnt God Is working in you to will and to do His good pleasure, to develop In you the character pleasing to Himself! Remember that unless this work of grace go on in your beurt dny bv day, It will not bo accomplish ed! Remember thnt unless It bo ac complished, you will not bo tit for a place in tjo Kingdom! Remember thut God bus predestinated that only such as demonstrate that nt henrt they nre copies of His Son can ever bo His Joint heirs In the Kingdom; mid remember that In all this wo see tho force of tbe text: "llumblo yourselves therefore under tho mighty bund of God, thut He may exult you In duo time." Our trials nnd difficulties, our stum blings and repentances, our vows to the Lord, nnd our endeavor to keep these, lire purls of tho grent humbling process necessary to our exultation. Trials and Temptations Neoessary, When wo get the proper focus on this subject of tho culling nnd election of tho Church, It clarifies everything. We see now that If we could eseapo trials and dilllcultles and testings, we would escape tlio necessary schooling experi ences, and lie unfit for our graduation, unfit for a sharo In tho First Resur rection. 'It takes us soma time to get this proper view of mutters, even ns when we wero school children, It re quired some time for us to learn the lesson that to be helped with uu an swer or to be excused from n lesson or to have a holiday were nil dlsudvnn tnges. A stilllclent number of such failures to learn our lessons properly would mean unpreparcdness for exam ination day. We have entered (lod'i grent training Rchool. Its great Teach er Is our dear Redeemer, to whom we are betrothed, Kvery lesson in the course Is necessary for our polishing and preparation for theglorles to follow. In this School everything depends upon ourselvcH. Tho arrangements nre nil of God and therefore perfect. The greut Tencber will not full In Ills duty townrd us. Tho results, therefore, nre with ourselves, If wo lenrn the les ions, we shull surely bo graduated, and be presented beforo our llenvcnly Fa ther and the holy nugels with honor nnd glory. Hut If we full to lenrn the lessons necessary, wo shull have only ourselves to blnrne. Indeed, from the viewpoint which wo sjinll hnvo beyond the veil, we surely would not want a place for which wo wero not prepared, nnd God would not give It to us. In this entire matter, therefore, wo see that God Is operating His elections, se lections, Instructions nnd final approv als along the lines of absolute Justice, fulrncss, principle not favoritism.
