EVENTS OF DAY IN
WEST SCRANTON
REV. S. F. MATTHEWS SPEAKS
ON "QOD IS LOVE."
Sermon Was Dollvored nt the Even
ing Service at the Welsh Baptist
Unurch A Saturday Uignt Club

President Severe Illness 01 llev.
J. B. Sweet Socials for Tonight.
James Dean Will Play Ball with

Ite-v. S. F. Matthews, of tlio First
JlnptlRt church, delivered an Interest
ing sermon In the Welsh Hnptlst church
Inst ovpnlnc from the text, "Ho that
Invetli not, hnowcth not Clod, for God
Is love," John lv:8.
The speaker compared life to the
mechnnlsm of a watch, and said that
na we enter life from childhood we are
dazzled by the Brace, beauty and lovc
llnes of the wonderful dream, but as
wo grow oliler we seek to find out the
cause for all this, which Is hidden.
It Is only when we trace wheel after
wheel of cnuso and effect that wo de
tect the principle that Is actuating It,
and as wo lirlnp; that principle into the
llKht of scrutiny and examine Its mar
velous characteristics, then only do wo
recognize It ns Love, and know that
the frreat thought that moves and cre
ates all things, Is Love.
To define love Is to define the bright
est principle of Intellectual energy that
can be known to creative or created
Intelligence. It Is the matchless secret
of our creation, the whole object and
aim of God In our welfare. I.ove Is an
attachment of the affections to nny ob
ject accompanied with an ardent de
sire to promote Its happiness.
There are not different kinds of love,
but different degrees of love. The love
of the father, mother, brother, sister,
of a true child: love between the sexes,
etc., and It must be evident that all of
these varied fcyms and expressions of
affection 'must flow frmn some source,
some higher foundation than mere cre
ated intelligent?.
God is love in our needs in that
divine charity of benevolence that
never fails. How often the child of
want knocks at our door. Wo give the
cold victuals that wo need not, and
think we have done a good thing, but
suppose we should take the stranger
in, prepare a warm meal, call him child
or brother, change his garments, wash
his feet, and give him the best couch
to rest on, what would you call that?
Is It not love of charity? And that Is
what God In his mighty love of charity
Is doing for us unceasingly.
