Here, to begin with, * Romans xii. : 3. F 2 Cor. V. : 13. \ St. Mark v. : 15.
8 SERMON.
young men, see that ye heed the Apostle's exhorta- tion. As a general rule, it costs a great deal to be sober-minded and temperate ; it costs the effort of resistance ; it implies prescience of consequences ; it costs the courage to say, No. Sobriety of thought on the greatest of all subjects which concerns us, may be the result of a grand battle with influences which lead to mental and spiritual inebriation.... Re- sistance to tempters, forethought of danger, need we not these for the safety of the soul, as much as for the health of the body ? There are strange and wild ideas in the minds of men with whom you come in contact, about the origin and conditions of thought. Probably there has never been an age so generally intelligent and at the same time so superficial as our own ; and the result of a widespread but imperfect culture is before us, in certain large and attractive systems, which represent not the solid and well-di- gested learning, but the boldness and irresponsibility of their apostles.
