DR. TALMAGE’S FIRMFAITH. ANGEL GUARDIA .CL Washington, Oct. 29.-â€"-The bril- liant beings supposed by some to be imaginary are by Dr. ’lalmage in his sermon shown to be real and to have much to do with our everyday life. The text. is Judges xiii, 19, "And the angel did wondrously.” - “f.‘ n An A‘ .swit‘ G115»). “ax; .- V...... v ' hire built on a rock. Manoah and his wife had there kindled the flames for sacrifice in praise of. God and in' honor of a guesr, whom they sup- posed to be a man. But as the flame rose higher and higher their stranger guest stepped into the flame and by one red leap ascended into the skies. Then they knew that was an angel of the Lord. “The angel did Wonâ€" drously.” TWo hundred and fortyâ€"eight times does the Bible refer to the angels, yet I never heard or read a sermon on angelology. The whole subject is relegated to the realm mythical, Weird, spectral and unknown. Such ,adjourmnent is tinâ€"Scriptural and wicked. fit their life, their characâ€" ter. their habits, their actions, their velocities, ' the Bible gives us full length portraits, and Why this proâ€" longed and absolute silence concern- ing them? Angelology is my theme. There are two nations of angels, and they are hostile to each otherâ€" , thenation of good angels and the na- "tion of bad angels. 0f: the former I chiefly speak toâ€"day. Their capital, their headquarters, their grand ren- davous, is heaven, but their empire is the universe. They are a distinct race of creatures. No human being can ever join their confraternity. The little child who in the Sabbath school sings, “I want to be an an- gel." will never have her wish gratiâ€" fied. They are superhuman, but they are of diflerent grades and ranks, not all on the same level or the same" height. They have their superiors and inferiors and equals. I propose no guessing on this subject, but take the Bible for my own authority. Plato, the philosopher, 81108931 and divided angels into superc'elestial. ce- lestial and subcelestial. Dionvsius. the Areopugite, guessed and divided them into three classes, the-supreme, the middle and the last, and each of these into three other classes. mak- ing nine in all. Philo said that, an- gels Were related to God, as the rays to the sun. Fulgentius said that they were composed of body and spirit. (‘lement said they Were in- eorporeal. Augustine said that they had been in danger of falling. but‘ now are beyond being tempted. But the only authority on this subject that I respect says they are divided into cherubim, seraphim, thrones, dominations, principalities, powers. Their cominander-in-chief is Michael. Daniel called him Michael. St. John called him Michael. These supernal beings are more thoroughly organ- ized than any army that ever march- ed. They are swifter than any .(‘yâ€" clone that ever Stx'ept the sea. They are more radiant than any itzorning that ever came down the sky. They Their Being. \‘chu ox the Ne“ Jesus.

There is only one. thing that puts then} to their wits' end. and the Bible says they have to study that. They have been studying it all through the ages, and yet I warrant they have. not fully grasped itâ€"the wonders of redemption. These wonâ€" ders are so high, so deep. so proud. Sn stupendous. so magnificent. that «Won the intelligence of nne‘elhoml is (-onfoumh-(l before it. The. apostle says. “Which things the angels tlv- sim- to look into." That is a sub- iject that excites inquisitivvness on. ‘-their part. That is a, theme that strains their faculties to the utmost. That is higher than they can climb. deeper than they can dive. They have a desire for something too big for their comprehension. "Which things the angels desire to look in- to.” But that does not discredit‘ their intelligence. No one but. God himself can fully understand the won. ders of redeniption. If all ' heaven should study it for 50 centuries. they would get no further than the A B C Jof that inexhaustible subject. But nearly all other realms of knowledge they have ransacked and explored and compassed. No one but God can tell them anything they do not know. They have read to the. last word of {1;3.‘lagglinc of the last page of the last volume' of investigation, and what delights me most is that all unit intelligence 13 to b. u. out dia- Irmwm Om. 4Im Ummj2< Omu 4.1m...

They (19min): 3w uni- posul, and; coming into their pres- once, they will tell us in five minutes more than we can learn. by 100 yeam' of earthly surmising. v. V“. v--â€" A further characteristic of these immortals is their velocity. This the Bible puts sometimes under the fig- ure of a. no“ mg garment, sometimes under the figure of naked feet. As these superhumans are without bod- ies, these expressions are of course figuratixo and mean swiftnness The Bible tells us that Daniel was prayâ€" mg and Gabriel flew from heaven and touched him before he got up from his knees. How far, then, did the angel Gabriel have to fly in those moments of Daniel‘s prayer? Heaven is thought to be the center of the universe. Our sun and its planets Only the rim of the wheel of worlds. In a moment the angel Gabriel flew from that center to this periphery. Jesus told Peter he could instantly have 60,000 angels present if he callâ€"- ed for them. What foot of antelope or Wing of albatross could equal that velocity? Law of gravitation, which grips all things else, has no influence upon angelic momentum. Immensi- ties before them open and shut. like a fan. That they are here is no reason. why they should not he quintillion of miles hence the nextrminutc. Our bodies hinder us, but our minds can circle the earth in a. minute. Angelic beings are bodiless and have no limiâ€" tation. God may with his finger point down to some world in trouble on the outmost limits of creation, and instantly an angelic cohort is there to help it, or some celestial may be standing at the farthermost outpost of immensity, and- God may say “Come!” and instantly it is in his bosom. Another remark I have to make concerning these illustrious immorâ€" tals is that they are multitudinous. Their census‘ has never been taken and no one but God. knows how many they are, but all the Bible ac- counts suggest their immense num- bersâ€"â€"companies .of them, regiments of them. armies of them, mountain tops haloed by them, skies populous with them. John speaks of angels and other beings round the throne as ten thousand times ten thousand. Now, according to my calculation, ten thousand times ten thousand are, 100,000,000. But these are only the ,angels in one place. David counted .20000 of them rolling down the sky in chariots. When God came away from the riven rocks of Mount Sinai. the Bible says he had the compan- ionship of 10,000 angels. I think they are in every battle, in every exiâ€" gency, at every birth, at eyery pilâ€" low, at every hour, at eVery moment, the earth full of them. They out.- nuinher the liuamn race in this world. They outnumber ransomed spirits in glory. When Abraham had his knife uplifted to slay Isaac, it. was an anâ€" gel who arrested the stroke, crying. “Abraham, Abraham!" It was a stairway of angels that Jaeoh saw while pillowed in the wilderness. We are told an angel led the hosts of Israelites out of Egyptian serfdotn. It was an angel that showed Hagar the fountain where she tilled the Lot- tie for the lad. It was an angel that took Lot out of doomed Sodom. It Was an angel that shut up the mouth of the hungry monsters when Daniel was throwminto the caverns. It Was an angel that fed Elijah under the juniper tree. It was an angel that announced to Mary the approaching nativity. They Were angels that, chanted when Christ was born. It was an angel that strengthened our - Saviour in his agony. It Was an an- gel that encouraged Paul in the ' Mediterranean shipwreck. It was an t' angel that burst: open the prison. .' gate after gate, until Peter was 1“)â€" - erated. It Was an angel that stirred t f the. pool of'b‘iloam, where the sit-l. l 1 were healed. It. was an angel that F John saw tlying through the midst 0 of heaven, and an angel with foot, - planted on the sea, and an angel that 1‘ opened the hook, and an angel that sounded the trumpet. and an angel that thrust in the sickle, and an an- gel that poured out the vials. and an angel standing in the sun. It will he an angel with uplifted hand. swear- it ing that time shall he no longer. In “‘- the great final harvest of the World [0 the reapers are the angels.

Men and women of a“ --_- stances, only partly appreciated or not appreciated at all, never feel lonely again or umregarded again!- Angels all around; angels to approve, 1 angels to help, angels to remember. Yea, while all the good angels are friends of the good, there is one special angel your bodyguard. This idea until this present study of an- gelogy I supposed to be fanciful, but I find it clearly stated in the Bible. When the disciples were praying for l’eter’s deliverance from prison and he appeared at the door of the pray- er meeting, they could not believe it Was Peter. They said, “It is an anâ€" gel.” So these disciples, in special nearness to Christ, evidently believed that every worthy soul has an angel. Jesus said of his followers, “Their angels behold the face of my Fa- ther.” Elsewhere it is said, “He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.” “LA/l nun, IJk'hUfi nun“ V- angels behol the face of my Fa- ther.” Elsewhere it is said, “He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways." Angel shielded, angel protected, an- gel guarded, angel canopicd, art thou! No wonder that Charles Wes- ley hymncd these Words: Which of the petty (Tan boast a guar: Enuirclod from our With all the head \‘zilerius and Ruflnus were put to death. for (‘hrist’s sake in the year 287, and after the day when their bodies had been whipped and poundâ€" ed into a jelly, in the night in prison and before the next day when they wm-v to he executed, they both thought they saw angels standing with two glittering crowns, saying “Be 01‘ good cheer, valiant soldiers of Jesus Christ! A little more of battle, and then these crowns are yours." And I am glad to know that before many of those who have passed through great sufferings in this life some angel of God has held a blazing coronet of eternal reward. Yea. we are to have such a guardian angel to take us upward when our work is done. You know. We are told an angel conducted Lazarus to hut-‘u -.... Abraham's bosom. Tha-t shows that none shall be so poor in dying he cannot afford angelic escort. It wmnld ho a, long way to go alone, and up paths we have never trod, and amid blazing Worlds swinging in unimaginable momentum, out and on ”trough such distances and across such infinitudos of spaoé we should shudder at the thought of going alone. “-‘r - But the angelic escort will come to your languishing pillow or the place nf vnnr fatal accident and Say: of your fatal accident and say: "Hail. immortal one!
