And yet those who express themselves in this way exercise faith every day of their lives. Why, the world would be at a standstill if men had no faith in their fellows ; the merchant would not transact business if he had no faith in his customers; the workman would not strike a blow did he not believe that his wages would be'given him. Take away faith, and what a marvellous change would ensue in all departments of life. No longer would the great ships convey their immense cargoes of valuable merchandise from shore to shore ; and the hum and clatter of our great factories would give place to a death- like stillness. But the merchant can trust his customers; he sends goods of the value of many thousands of pounds to the order of a person, thousands of miles distant, whom he has never seen, but whose credit is reported to be good. He believes, he acts; and so with the busy masses of our population, they believe, and they toil on from early morning till evening closes round them. The pay- day and its hard earned wages give nerve to the arm and purpose to the mind. Faith 4s, therefore, that principle of confidence that we see manifested among men in all the affairs of life— the word, the promise, the agreement of man is believed, as a matter of course. Men can trust their property and reputation with their fellows, and yet many have no faith in the Word of God, " who cannot lie," whose statements, whether threats or promises, arc made in the most definite manner. Faith is the same principle, whether as to trusting man's word or God's word. His message is —" Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." Jesus says— ' Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation ; bat is passed from death unto life." Which is right?— God who says to- day ; Satan who says to morrow; you who say bye- and- bye- Are you certain of " to- morrow"? Will you ever have a " bye- and- bye' ? To- morrow never comes; it is always to- morrow, receding as you come to it. Be wise to- day. TADDVS HIGH- CLASS TOBACCOS.
