The Darkness of
“Man’s Day”
By REV. GEORGE E. GUILLE
Extension Department, Moody Bible
Institute. Chicago.
TEXT-But -vith me It is a very small
thing that I should be Judged of you, or
of man's day.—X Cor. 4:3, R- V.
“Man's Day.” Thus does the Spirit !
of Go«l designate this present age. lie I
lias designations, i
such as "Ill's j
d a r k n es s" and
“This present evil i
age.’’
Man's Day had
a definite morn
ing. As definite
an evening is now
rapidly drawing
near. We know
not at whir hour
by the > lock It
shah close, for
Scripture does
not tell us, but we Know that tor t le
church of God it shall end when that
next prophetic Day—the Day "
Christ—shall dawn.
Man’s Day, like the other days of
Scripture, has its own characteristics,
all set forth in the Word of God. 1 hr
Bible is as fully up to date as though
God had but this morning placed it
in our hands, and there is not a design
nor an achievement of man in world
affairs, in politics, in religion, not n
world-movement that has not been an
ticipated by Holy Scripture.
The most striking mark o. Man’s
Day is the silence of God. In the ages
before the cross God spoke by the
prophets, and in the last of those days
He spoke by His Son. Since that
blessed voice was stilled at Calvary
God bus remained silent and man has
been speaking and manifesting his
folly. ‘‘They speak every man vanity
with his neighbor.” “Professing them
selves to be wise, they became fools,
because "they' became vain in their
reasonings and their senseless heart
was darkened." All the powers of his
soul have been corrupted by sin, yet
he exalts human reason above all
things, criticizes God, contradicts His
Word, makes light of His wisdom, re
jects His Son and laughs at His pre
cious blood ns the divine remedy for
sin. He imagines that God endowed
him with reason to equip him as a
“critic” of His Word and His works
and His ways, instead of using this
power, along with the other powers
of his soul and spirit, for becoming ac
quainted with God and finding his
highest Joy In fellowship with Him.
He denies that he is a fallen, ruined
creature, without God and without
hope in the world, and prates of his
divinity, admitting that the Lord Jesus
is divine only as all men are divine.
He debases God with his pantheism
and speaks, with much show of learn
ing, of the divine immanence. With
resounding phruses be talks much of
the dignity and glory of manhood,
while he humanizes God or drags Him
from His throne. He proposes all
sorts of remedies for the evils which
lie would fain remove while he scoffs
at the one only remedy revealed In Holy
Scriptmv. And the evils increase and
men die in their '■•'nS. He talks of
sjcience and education hy which, he

the winchester store
proposes to lift up the masses, and of
reform and self-culture by which he
promises to empty jails and peniten
tiaries. Still the masses are down and
the penitentiaries are full. He boasts
of his science and his progress and j
calls his fellmvmen to Ids fairs that
they may behold the work of his
hands.
And God remains silent I “These
things hast thou done,” says lie, ‘‘and
I kept silence. Thou thoughtest that
I was altogether such an one as thy
self.”
T1 e reasons for God’s silence are
easy to discover.
1. !le has given to men His Word,
complete and final, and confirmed as j
to it - ruth and trustworthiness by a
thor-and infallible proofs. The climax |
of divine revelation lias been reached
and there is no reserve of mercy yet i
to be unfolded. Those who come to ;
that Word need no other voice, for the '
one voice that spoke it In the begin
ning speaketh in it still to all who
have ears to hear. “Oh, earth, earth,
earth, hear the word of Jehovah,” Is |
God’s challenge to all the world. ‘‘Let
God sp'-ak," cries the skeptic, “and I
will believe.” The answer is that
“God bath spoken” in His Word.
2. God's present silence proclaims
this as the accepted time and the day
of Ills grace. “The longsulfering of
our Lord is salvation” and “He en
dured with much longsuffering the
vessels of wrath fitted (by themselves)
to destruction." The Infinite sacrifice
by which His righteous claims have
been satisfied has been accepted, the
great amnesty has been declared, and
He keeps back the storm of Judgment
while He waits in grace and mercy to
save. I hear men speak of “golden
silence." How golden this silence of
God! How eloquent for sinners!
”, But God’s silence, though It has
continued long, Is at length to be
broken. When he speaks again it
shall be by that c ne In whom Lie
spoke Inst. A moment Is coming of
which It is written : “The mighty God
hath spoken and called the earth from
the rising of the sun unto the going
down thereof.” Yea, “our God shall
cone and shall not keep silence.”
"These things hast thou done und I
kept silence. But I will reprove
thee.”,
Man’s Day Is going out in awful
night. Oh soul, while God’s gracious
silence remains, be saved and escape
that night of doom. Accept the wait
ing Savior now and He will accept
thee. •
British Plan to Harness Winds.

make them produce electricity for
rural districts has been presented to
the British ministry of agriculture. The

These wings will he spun by the wind
horizontally Just ubove the ground.
Proponents of the plan assert that
unlimited amounts of electricity can be

the scheme, and If It proves feasible,
it is planned to build several of the
generating stations In out-of-the-way
districts.
