Phone 690, 120 Eighth Ave, PEOPLE S gt; Btockholm, Aug..25, Pastor Russell ot London Tabernacle arrived from Finland this morning, He, addressed two large Swedish tions here and Icayes to-night for Copenhagen, Kiel, Brussels and London. We re- port one of his addresses, trom I. imothy ii, 6, 6: There is one God, and one Medistor between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a Ransom for all, to be testi. fied in due time. He said: w did His death influence God to the forgiveness of human sin? And why was the better sacrifice. of Jesus typified by the sacrifice of bulls and goats under tho Jewish Law Covenant? A right understanding, a correot und of these mat- ters is the very essence of true theo. logy, snd most helpful to us all. ie ine arrangement proposes that everything in accord with God must -be absolutely perfect. Both angels and men were created perfect, in God's image. And the Diving Law, in the interest of all, cuts off from fellowship and blessings all who deliberately go into sin, and fellow- ships only such as are perfect. Hence the sentence upon Father Adam for hhis disobedience cut him. off from Divine fellowship and favor under the sentence, Dying, thou shalt di (Genesis fi, 17) not, Going to eter- nal torment, thou shalt roast. True, Adam s children were never thus condemned, but born in sin and ghapen in iniquity (Psalm ii, 5), under the laws of heredi* they never were perfect, never were fully in the image of God, never wer , therefore, in harmony with God. but always shared Father-Adam s alienation and condenination. They were children of wrath (Ephesians -i -3) justly sharing their Father Adam s penalty of death, because imperfect not worthy of life under the Divine ar- Tangement. Whoever sees clearly these facts of Scripture must perceive that human- ity would have no hope of everlasting life except through Divine mercy forciveness. But some one will say, Why should there be ary necessity for the Logos to leave heavenly glory and be made flesh and then to die, the Just for the unjust, to make ossible our return to Divine favor? Vhy should not. God forgive the sins of Adam and his race even as we are directed to forgive those who trespass against us? God's attitude towards sin. ve properly. is different. His work erfect. (Deuteronomy xxxii, 4.) fe created Adam in His own imag We sinners are not God's creation dizect, but have merely come into exisince under laws of heredity. Justice is All rights: Father Adam were forf a been abrogated. From the Divine standpoint of justice, our race is a dead one. More than this the great Supreme Ruler and Judge of the Uni- verse, having condemned us as unfit for eternal life and fellowship with Himself, could not justly set aside His own decree. God could not, therefore, justly, righteously, change His verdict, for that would imply that our sentence was an unjust one. The, Divine. Government refuses to be thus compromised, but instead has provided a salvation for humanity through Jesus death. The method adopted maintains the dignjty of the Divine Law to the full, and at the game time reveals the fact that our Creator is the very embodiment of sympathy and love qualities of His which never would have been 0 fully. appreciated by either angels or men unless God had permitted human sin. hhad provided the ity He did, and then provided the Redemption through the Logos Jesus. A mediator is one who stands be- tween two parties who are st vari- ance, for the purpose of bringing about reconciliation. The two parties mentioned in our text are not God and the Church, but God and the world mankind in general, Man sinned. God justly condemned. the inner. The Meiator s first work in reconciliation must be to offer,a sub- stitute to Justice for Adam's sin, Our ext tells us that the Man Christ Jesus did this very thing He gave Himeelf to be a Ransom-price for all mankind. He did this when He reached perfect manhood, at thirty of ge, when He consecrated ife to God even life to unto death. He finished this giving of Himself on Galyary when He cried, It is finish- ed. ohn xix, 90.) The perfect. spotless, unsontaminated lite of the fan Obrist Jesus, thus laid down a voluntary sacrifice, constitutes a Ransom-price for Adam and his race.

PULPIT. THE WORLD'S NEED OF A MEDIATOR Why Savior and Redemp- tive Work Are Necessary for Salvation. the Bride of Christ and His Joint- heir in His Messianic Kingdom is a Mystery appreciated by few. The Mystery is that in the Great Jehovah's Plan this Elect Church, now in pro- cess of selection, is to constitute with Jesus her Redeemer the great Mediu. tor who, during the Millehnium, will mediate the New Covenant between and m in general. The foundation for all that Mediatorial work the all-essential basis of it Was effected by our Lord Jesus alove when He, as the Man Christ Jesus, favo Himself a Ransom-price tor all. fut the great work of reconciliation belongs to the future. and is to be shared in by the Bride class. Well did John the Baptist Jesus and say, Behold, the God which taketh away the sin of the world. (John i, 29,36.) In Jesus resided the Ransom-price, and not in His Church; in Jesus work, and not in our work; in Jesus sacrifice, and not in our sacrifice, was the potency for the cleansing away of Adam's sin and the setting aside of his death Penalty. Whatever share the Church Was granted in the great work of the world s reconciliation was by grace and not b sacrifice. Z The Redeemer has not yet. begun His work of Mediation between and men. He merely provided. the basis of that reconciliation in His death at Calvary. The merit of His sacrifice is in Jehovah's handi is not yet appropriated for the sins of the world. The world s sins are not yet forgiven. Hence God still treats the world. as sinners, aliens, foreign- rs, enemies through evil works. Everything is in readiness for the forgiveness of the sjns of the world; but the Redeemer waits until He shall have accomplished another feature of the Divine Program, name- ly, the selection of the Church to be is Bride; or under another figure Y our merit, not by our of the Body of the Mediator, under the Redeemer's Headship. For Moses veril; said unto the fathers, A Prophet shall the Lord your, God raise up unto you from amongst your brethren like unto me Moses ; Him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever He shall say unto you. And the per- son that will not obey that Prophet that Teacher , shall be destroyed from amongst the people. Acts iti, (22, 23. This antitypical Moses, Head and members, has been in process of de- velopment, or raising up, for now nearly nineteen centuries. God Taised up Jesus the very first, and is since raising up us also by Jesus. And through the First Resurrection shortly the entire Body, the Messiah of glory, will be changed, made partakers of the divine nature. Revelation xx, 6; II. Peter i The antitypical Moses will inaugu- rate the New Covenant with Israel arid the world, even as the typical Moses inaugurated the old Law Cove. nant with typical Israel at Mt. Sinai As the oli Covenant had sacrifices of bulls and goats and was inaugurated first by a sprinkling of the tables of the , representing a satisfaction e Justice, and secondly the sprinkling of all the people, repre- senting their reconciliation through the same sacrifice, so the antitypical Moses, the Mediator of the New or antitypical Covenant, must first pro- duce better sacrifices, the antitypi- eal, and then with the merit of these make satisfaction to Divine Justice and reconcile the people all who are willing of the whole world. When Moses slew the animals whose blood made effective: the typical Covenant which he mediated, that sacrificing was merely a preparatory work. The Law Covenant was not mediated in any sense of the word until the ani- mals were all slain and the blood wes sprinkled on the tables of the Law. in the antitype, Jesus, the Mediator of the New Covenant, must first, after the pattern of Moses, com- plete all His sacrificing before He begins the work of Mediation. First of all, as we have seen, He offered up Himself without. spot unto God, finishing that work at Calvary. Since then He has been accepting and offer- ing up as a part of His own sacrifice the members of the Church, as they come unto the Father through Him, pregenting their bodies to be living sacrifices, holy and acceptable unto God.

The grand finale will be attained when every upplica- th: the pre- Fe to creature in heaven and in the earth nd under the enrth shall be heard praigo to Him that sitteth hrone, and unto the Lamb forever.

From the foregoing it will be seen that the world s salvation is to be a Restitution to human perfection an earthl Adam's disobedience tieed also that the Church has no part with the world in that Restitu- tion, nor in that Mediation for a thousand years. The Church. will be members of the Mediator who will confer the Restitution blessings and privileges on the non-elect. But the fact that the Church will not be numib red with mankind in the human Mediation which will take place during the Millennium, does not mean that the Church now has no sins, nor that those sins do not need tobe covered and cancelled. dos mean that the Church is not to get back the buman life and earthly. rights forfeited by restored under the Mediator's King- dom.
