In this discourse Dr. T&iomge describes
tit* Gospel net, and how it is to
be repaired after being damaged;
Sect, Matthew 4:21, "James, tLe sou of
Zebedee, and John, hie brother, in a
j^P ehlp with ifiebedee, their father, tueudlng
their net*."
"I go a-?ehing!" cried Simon Peter
to hi* uentradee, and the most of the
gpoatlea had hands hard from iishiug
H & ' tackle. Tho fisheries of the world have
It Always attracts*! attention. In the
third oenfury the queen of Egypt had
for pin money $470,000, received from
th? fisheries of Lake Moeria. And, If
ths tlms should e*et coius when the
Immensity of the world's population
could not be fed by ths vegetables and
msats of ths land, tho see liaa an
amount of animal life that would feed
all the population of the earth and fatl
ten them with u food that by Its phosphorus
would make a generation
HP brainy and Intellectual beyond anything
that the world has evar imagined.
My text takes us among the Gall\
lean flahermen. One day Walter Scott.
while hunting in an old drawer, found
Among some old fishing tackle tba
manuscript of his immortal book.
^ "Wavarley," which he had put away
there as of no worth, and who knows
v but that to-day we may find some unknown
wealth of thought while looktog
At the fishing tackle in the text.
It it not a good day for fishing, and
Q V. three men are in the boat repairing
B \ the broken fishing nets. If you are
\ Ashing with a hook aud linn, and the
Nx Ash will not bite, it is u good time to
put the angler's apparatus into better
condition. Terhaps the last fish you
heuled in was so large that (something
mapped, or, if you were fishing with a
net, there was a mighty flounderi z'S
of the scales or an exposed nail cn the
elde of tho boat which broke some of
the threads aud let part or all of ths
captives of tho deep escape Into their
natural element. And hardly any'
thing Is more provoking than to nearl}land
a score or a hundred trophies
from tho deep, and when you are iu the
full glee of hauling in the ^potted
treasures, through some imperfection
f the net they splash back inio tho
' wava. That is too much of a trial of
/ patience for most fishermen to endure,
/ And many a man ordinarily correct of
speech in such circumstances comes to
P it> atensity of utterance unjustifiable.
^ TlBerefor? no good fishern^u o\
ere the time wasted that is st>eut in
I mending his net. Now, the Bible again
and again represents Christian woikers
as fishers of men. aud we ate ull
sweeping through the sea of humanity
some kind of a net. Indeed there have
been enougu nets out and enough fishermen
busy to have landed the whole
human race in the kingdom of (iod
long before this. What is the matter?
The Oospel is all right, and it has been
a good time for catching souls for thousands
cf years. Why, thru, the failures^
The trouble is with the nets,
r. #oost of them need to be mended. I
propose to show you what is the matter
"With most of the nets and how to
r And his two boys. James and John,
| were doing a good thing when they sat
In the boat mending their nets.
The trouble with manv 01 our net*
la that the meshes are too large. If
a flab oan get his gills unci half his
body through the network, lie tears
and rends and works Ms way out, und
Leaves the place through which ho
squirmed a tangle of broker threads.
In our desire to make everything so
aasy we relax, we loosen, wo wideo.
iWa 1st men after they are once in
the Gospel net escape into the world,
and go into Indulgences and swim all
around Galileo, from north side to
aouth aide, and from east, de to west
aide, expeoting that they will come
beck again. We ought to make it easy
for them to get into tlia Kingdom of
God cad, as far u? we can, make it
. Impossible for them to get out. The
poos* advice nowadays to many is:
"'Go and do Just as you did before ;
HB vi ere oaptured- for God and Heave n.
The net was not iniended to be .?. ..v
BO restraint or any hindrance. What you
did before you were n Christian do
now. Go to all styles of amusement,
read all the etylea of book*, engage
In all styles of behavior nc before y ou
ware converted.'- And eo, thr* ti
those meshes of permission and laxity,
SB they wriggle out ; . gh this open- I
B tng and that opening the net
as they go, and soon all tl
* we expected to land in Heaven, before
we know it, are Lack in the deep
aea of the world. Oh, when we go
a-Gospe! Ashing, let us melee it as easy
as possible for souls to get In and as
hard ns possible to get out.
Is the Bible language an uumeunln;
verbiage when it talks about Kclf-rleyilal,
and keeping the bodv . n?!.>. ... '
about walking the narrow wuj and
antering the strait gate and about
carrying the cross? Is there to be no
away of telling whether a man is a
Christian except by his taking -?)io
communion chalice on sacramental
day? May a man be as reek! ss about
iila thoughts, about hia words,, about
lila temper, about bis amusements
alter conversion aa before? Alus, the
words of Christ are ao little heeded
when He aaid: "Whosoever dotli not
tiear his orosa and couie rfier int cannot
be my diaciple." The church io
I fart becoming as bad as tiia world,
and when It gets a a bad as the world
It will be worse than the worid by ao
