"Aai aiid, I heard Maxwell preneb. At bia rarnrst request I had  pnarhed fbr blm the  Bnnday before, nnd   tbis waa the flrst time I hnd hcnrd him sinen the aasnoiation fr.nr yenra ago.

And It was a most nn- i ¦anally impreasivo nppcul tn the Chris- Maaa of Raymond to obey .lesns' tench- j Ings and follow lu his htops, regnrdlesH | of what iitben niijht d.i.  I cuniu.t Kive j ytm even tho plan  uf t!i.. seriii.in.   It i woald take too lorg.  At tlm iliiso of tho { aerrice them was tho mnnl nfter meet- , lag that has  beroiiio a  regular feature of the First cbureb.   Int.. tbia iiicting { bare como all   tbosn  who nindi-   the ! |dedge to do as J. sns w.mld d«, nnd Iho | time ia spent in nintnnl fellowship, e..n- ! faaaion,   qnestionn   as   In   what  .lesus wonld do iJf  sprcbil  crtiiott and prnyer tbat tho one great  gnldo of  every dis¬ ciple's crndnct may Ih< the Holy Hpirit.
'I'liitxwell asked mo tociimo into this meeting. Nothing in all my uiinisterinl Ute, Caxton, bas so moved mo as tliut meeting. I never felt tbo Spirit's pres- •aoe ao poworf nlly. It whs a ineoting of reniniscvncca and of tho mixt hiving teUowahlp. I waa irresistibly driven in tboogfat back to the first years of Chris¬ tianity. Thnro was somethingalsint nil this that was apcwti.lic in Its simplicity and Christ imitation.
"I asked (|nei.ti..na. One thnt s<H<ine.l to aronae morn interest than any other was la regard to tbs extent of tbn Owistian dlsciplee" sacTiflc(» uf personnl property. Henry Maxwell tells nio tbat so far no ono haa interpreted the spirit o( Jeena ia sneh a way ns to nlund.m bis earthly pusaeesions, givo awny ull bia wealth or in nny literal way imitnto tbe Christians of the order, for cxiim- ple, ot 81 Francis of Asaisi. It was tho ¦aaaimnns omsent, however, thst if aay disciple shonld feel thnt Jesns In bia own particniar case w.mld dn thnt ! there eonld be only ono answ.'r' to the flMatioa, Maxwell frankly admitt^'d that be was atill. to a certain degree, ¦¦certain as to Jesns' jmihablo action when it came to the details of b..n8tH boM Uving. the tsMsemi.iu ..f wealth. the holding of certain In.viiri.'H. It is, however, eviiient Ibat very many i.f ths as diaciplea have repeatedly carriisl their obedience tn Je*ns t« the extr.'Uie Unit, regardless ..f ilnanciul Inss. There la ko lack irf oonrage or cnnsisteucy at thla puint. It is also Ime tbat snin'e nf the basiness men who took the pl.ilge have kail great anins of money in this imitation of Jesns, nnd very mnny have, like Alexander Powers, l.wt valn- abls pnaitioBa owing to tbe iniiKiwihility of doing wbat they had been atvns- to do and at tbe snme time doing they felt Jesns wonld do in the place. In cunnctinn with th.se it ia pleasant to ren.rd the fai-t that many who have snffeted in Mils way bave nl once hern helped tinancial- if by thoee who still have ui(«na In ttla reapei-t 1 think it is trne that thi«e dtectple* havo all tbinge in cmmnn.

40. "Said unto Hlin." It is senrcely to bo doubted that Simon expresse.I his dls. plensur.i by looks, gestures ou.t murmurs. "S.imewbiil losiy," Those whom Christ batli soniewlint against.
