I bring in reply to this .yhat Christ said, and heOnght to know, “1,130 to prepare’ ’â€"not a theory not a principle, not a sentiment, but "I go to prepare a place for you.” The resurrected body implies this. If my foot is to be reformed from the dust, it must have something to tread upon. If my hand is to be recon- structed, it must have something to handle. If my eye, hnivng gone out in death, is to be rekindled, I must have something to gaze on. Your adverse theory seems to imply that the resurrected body is to be hung on nothing, or to ivslk on air, or to float amid the intangibles. ‘You may say if there be material organism then a soul in heaven will be cramped and hindered in its enjoyments, but 'I answer, Did not Adam and Eve have plenty of room in the gnrden of Eden?

Your ancestry, your temperament, your sur- roundings, will decide whether you go to this or that church and adopt this or that church polity. One church will best get one man to heaven and another church another man. I do not care which one of the gates you ‘go through if you go through one of the twelve gates that Jesus lifted. THE TWELF'I‘H GATE. Well, now I see all the redeemed of earth coming up toward heaven. Do you think they will all get in? Yes. Gate the first, Lthe Moravians come up; they believed in 1 the Lord Jesus: they pass through. Gate 1 the second, the Quakers come up; they have received the inward light; they have trust- ed in the Lord, they pass through. Gate the third, the Lutherans come up; they have the same grace that made Luther what he was, and they pass through. Gate the fourth. the Baptists pass through. Gate the fifth, the Free Will Baptists pass "hroug'n. Gate the sixth, the Reformed urch passes through. Gate the seVenth. e Congregationalism pass through. Gate the eight, the German Reformed church passes through. Gate the ninth, the Metho- dist pass through. U Lte the Tenth, the Sab- haturians pass thru-. In. Gate the eleventh, the church of the Disciples pass through. Gate the twelfth, the Presbyteriaus pass through. But there are a great part of other denominations who must come iu,and great multitudes whoconnectedthemselvesw ithno ,visihle church, but felt the power of godli- ness in their heart and showed it in their life. Where is their gate? Will you shut all the remaining boat out of the city? No. They may come in at our gate. Hosts of God, {if you cannot get admission through any'ogher entrance, come in at the twelfth gate. 'Now they mingle before the throne. . AL_ -_._ L..-J_._J __£l ‘-_A_. D Looking up at the one hundred and forty thousand, you cannot tell which gate they came in. One Lord. One faith.‘ One bap- tism. One glassy sea. One doxology. One triumph. One heaven ! In the third place, notice the points of ‘thmoompass toward which these gates look. v. ey are not on one side,or on two sides,or 0 three sides, but on four sides. This is I: fancy of mine, but a distinct announce- ment. On‘the north three gates, on the south three gates, on the east three gates, on the wait three gates. “What does that mean 2 Why, it means that all nationali- ties are included, and it does not make any dilferencefrom what quarter of the earth a man comes up.

Imperial parks and lordly manor-s are apt to have one ex- pensive gsteway, and the others are ordinary,but look around at these entrances to heaven and count them.

Against this gate, on the other side, beet the surges of eternal glory. 0hI the gate, the gate ! It strikes an infinite charm though every one that passes it. One step this side of the gate, and we are paupers. One step the other side of the gate, and we are kings.

I have come up to this place notbecense I deserved it, but because I have heard that there is at saving power in the blood of Jesus.” The gatekeeper says. - “That is the passwordâ€"‘Jesus! Jesus? ’ â€"-end they go in end eurround the throne, the cry is, “Worthy h the Once more I want to show you the gate- keepers. There is one angel at each one of those gates. You say that is right. Of course it is. You know that no earthly palace or castle or fortress would be safe without a sentry pacing:y up and down' by night and by day, and if there were no defenses before heaven, and the doors set Wide open with no one to guard them, all the vicious of earth would go up after awhile, and all the abandoned of hell would go up after awhile, and. heaven, instead of being a. world of light and joy and peace and blessedness, would he a world of dark- ness and horror. So I am glad to tell you that while these twelve gates stand open to lets great multitude in, there are twelve angels to keep some people out. Robes- pierre cannot go through there, nor Hilde- brand, nor Noro, nor any of the debauched of earth who have not repented of their ‘ wickedness. If one of those nefarious m an who despised God should come to the gate, ‘one of the keepers would put his hand on 1 his shoulder and push him into outer dark~ ness. There is no place in that land for thieves and liars and whoremongers and delrauders and all those who disgraced their race and fought against their God. if a miser should get in there, he would pull up the golden pavement. If a house burner should get in there, he would set lire to the mansion, _If a libertine should get in there, he would whisper his abomina- tions standing on the white coral of the sea beach. Only those who are blood washed and prayer lipped will get through. Oh, my brother, if you should at last come up to one of the gates and try to get through and you had not a pass written by the crushed hand of the Son of God, the gate- keeper would with one glance wither you forever. There will be a password at the gate of heaven. ‘Do you know what that password is '2 Here comes a crowd of souls up to the gate, and they say: “Let me in, let me in. I was very useful on earth. I endow~ ed colleges ; 1 built‘ churches and was famous for my charities, and having done so many wonderful things for the world now I come up to get my reward.” A voice from within says, “I never knew you.” Another great crowd comes up, and they try to get through. They say : “We were highly honorable on earth, and the world bowed very lowly before us. We were highly honorable on earth, and now, We come to get honors in heaven.” And a voice from within says, “I never knew you.” Another crowd advances and says : y “We were very moral people on earth,very ‘ moral indeed, and we come up to get appropriate recognition.” A voice answers, “1 never knew you." But I notice when John saw these gates they were openâ€"wide open. They will not always be so. After a while heaven will have gathered up all its intended population and the children of God will have come home. Every crown is taken. Every harp struck. Every throne mounted. All the glories of the universe harvested in the great garner. And, heaven being‘made up, of course the gates will be shut. Austria in, and the first gate shut. Russia in, and the second gate shuts Italy in,and the third gate shut. Spain in,and the fifth gate shut. France in, and the sixth gate shut. England in,and the seventh gate shut. Norway in, and the eighth gate shut. Switzerland in, and the ninth gate shut. Hindustan in, and the tenth gate shut. Siberia in, and the eleventh gate shut. All the gates are closed but one. Now, let America gel 11 with all the islands of the sea and all the other nations that havecalled on God. The captives all freed. The harvests all gathered. The nations all saved. The flashing splendor of this last pearl begins to move on its hinges. Let two mighty angels put their shoulders to the gate and heave it to with silvery clung. It is done. It thunders. The twelfth gate shut. clinic, and longed for it until they died. But the Swiss, coming to the high regidence of heaven, will not long any more for the Alps, standing amid the eternalhills. The Russians will not long any more for the luxuriant harvest field he left now that he hears the hum and the rustle of the bar- vests of everlastinglight. The royal ones from earth will no: long to go back again to the earthly court now that they stand in the palace of the sun. Those who once lived among the groves of spice and oranges will not long to return now that they stand under the trees of life that bear twelve manner of fruit. ‘ Oh, ye redeemed, banner lifted, rank after rank, saved battalion after saved battalion, until all the city of God shall bear the tramp, tramp! Crowd all the twelve gates. Room yet. Room or: the thrones. Room in the mansions. Room on the river banks. Let the trumpet of invitation be sounded until all earth’s mountains bear the shrill blast andglens echo it. Let missionaries tell it in pagoda and colporteurs sound it across the west- ern prairies. Shout it to the Lupiander on his swift sled, halloo it to the Bedouin careerina across the desert. News ! News ! A glorious heaven and twelve gates to get into it ! Hear it! Oh, you thin blooded nations of eternal winterâ€"on the north three gates. Hear it! Oh. you bronzed inhabitants panting under equatorial beats â€"on the south three gates. While I speak' an increasing throng is pouring through the gstes. They are go- ing up from Senegumbia, from Patagonia, trom Msdras. from Hongkong. “What,” you any, “do you introduce all the heathens into glory '!’ I tell you the fact is that smsjonty of the people in those climes die in infancy, and the infants all go straight into eternal life, and so the vast majority of those who die in China and India, the vast wiority of those who die in Afritm 50 :trs‘xght into the skiesâ€"- may die in infancy. One humlredland sixty generstions hsve been born since the world was created. and so I estimate that there must be l5,000,000,000 children in glory. If at a concert 2,000 children sing, your soul is ruptured within you.

Sir \Vm. Vernon Harcourt replied warml y, and when Mr. Balfour again arose to speak he was reoc-ived with loud cries of “spoken, spoken,” from the McCarthyites, led by Mr. Timothy M. Heniy, member for North Louth. Thus continued for several minutes, while Mr. Balfour stood unmoved at the table. Amid grant excitement the monlhorn vainly eudeivoured to induce Mr. Henly to desist. There were lond'and angry cries of "name," but the chair being vacant it was impossible to call him to order. Ultimately, however, Mr. Balfour was allowed to speak. In an editorial the Stendurd (Conserva- tive) claims that if the zConacrvatiVes in the next general election obtain control of the Government they will be justified i2 electing a. new Speaker of the, House of Commons.
