'l'howhole trouble is that we put off the
completion of the world's redemption to such
long and indefinite diltancis. The old pro

cannot get up much enthusiasm about lame-
thing five hundred years from now or a thou-

too long a range. That gun called the

the previous sentence which lays that one day
is with the Lord as a thousand years? That
is. he could do the work of ten centuriee in
twenty-four hour: The mightiest obstacle
to Chriltian work is the impression that the
world‘s erungclization is away off. And we
take the telescope and look on and on
through centuries until we see two
objects near each other, and we strain
our vision and guess what they are,
and we call great conventions to guess
what they are, and we get down our heaviest
theological works and balance our tclcscope
on the lid and look and look and finally con-
clude that they are two beasts that worse
and the one has hair and the other has wool,
and we guess it must be the lion and the
lamb lying down together. in that great
cradle of postponement and loumolcnco we
rock the church as though it were an impa-
tient child and say, “Bush, uiy dear. don’t
be impatient! Dou't get excited by revivals!
Don't cry! Your Father's coming: Don't
get uneasy! He will be herein two or three
orteu or twenty thousand years." And we
act as though We thought that when hia-
cauiay'l famous New Zealander iu the far
distant is heated on a broken arch of London
bridge sketching the ruinsof St. Paul‘s his
grandchild might break in and jolt his pencil
asking him if he thought the millennium ever

first, because God is ready. He needs no
long persuasion to do h’mwork, for If he is
not willing that any should perish, he is not
willing that any of the people of the next
decade shall perish; and the whole Bible is a
chime of bells ringing out "Conic, come,
come," and you need not go round the cunb
to find out how much he wants the world to
come. but jlhb't to walk around one stripped
and bare and leafless tree with two branches
not arched but horizontal. But be ilwait—
ing, as he said he would, for the cooperation
ofthechurch. When we are readyGod is
rudy. And he certainly has all the weap-
onry ready to capture this world for the
truth, all the weapons of kinan or devas-
