t The Puiot A SERMON RA-VNDEIOiNJ Theme: The Call of God to the , Church of Christ. Brooklyn New York. Preaching at tho Irving Square Presbyterian '. Church. Hamburg avenue and Weir- field street, the Rev. Ira Wemmcll Henderson, pastor, took as his theme j "The Call of Hod to the Church of Christ." The tt was Phil. 1:27: "Stand faat In one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the Gospel; and In nothing terri fied by your adversaries." He said: Let us unfold the text and trans late It with care for the richness and exactness of meaning that It en closes, that the authorized version which we have read hardly sots forth. "Stand fast persistently In on spirit, with one mind striving together fot the faith of the Gospel: and In noth ing scared by your adversaries." The apostle admonishes the people nl ' God to sland fast step Illy not sno- . radically, to be of Singlet! SI ol mind and heart and soul In their devotion to the work of the living Christ, to Strive together with the best of team I play for the truth, to be unafraid ol their opponents. The figure Is that of a frightened horse. Be not scared like a runaway. This Is the word of Paul to the saints In Christ .Tesus which were at Phlllppl. It is the call of Him woo sltteth between the cherubim to His church to-day. This Is the summons of God to those who are His people ! In the bonds of Christ. He promul- ' gates the plan for Christian action. , He elevates an Ideal for service. He . asserts tho positive and negative du ties that relate themselves to Chris tlanlty. He stipulates what Is to be the aim and whnt Is the measure of the efficiency of the church of th? living Lord. The text affords as good a program for the guidance ol those who are banded In th" In terests of the proclamation and ad vancement of tho Kingdom of Cod as could well be devised. And we may safely assert that It Is because the church has too largely relinquished her grasp upon this pro gram; lost, too largely, her con sciousness of the mandatory respon sibilities that God has laid upon her, her vision of her dlvlnelv endowed Ideals, her unanimous fidelity to the plans and the purposes and inspired activities of Kmanuel, that she has to a lamentable decree ceased to command either the Influence, the respect or the love that, within the memory of many a man alive was hers. And I believe that the moral and spiritual unhealthlness that Is manifest in America is a direct re sult of the desultory and flaccid alle giance that tho church has granted to her God. We have been too much afraid of our enemies and too uncertain of ourselves. We have over-emphasized tho power of the forces of en trenched evil, and bv implication dis counted the capacity of the Deity successfully to energize His people and to realize His will In them. We have been silent, when we should have spoken fearlessly, and voluble when silence better would havo served the time and the King's busi ness. We have, especially In the Protestant Church, let Christian lib erty degenerate till in many quarters it has become synonvmous with irreligious license. We have ex changed prophecy for time-serving and truthfulness for popularity, to an extent that Is as disastrous as it Is dlsrenutable. Wo have lost the note of authority. And In our scramble to find the bait that will lure the world toward God and that will draw men so far tindT the In fluence of the church that, we shall be able to demonstrate the good heartedness of the Goapel and of the Christian life we have bacome such good fellows that we have lost our aim, missed the heart of Christian service and of Christian faith. The call of God to His church means little to multitudes of people who are on the roils of the church visible because they haven't listened long or intently enough to Him to know what Mo thinks or says or wants. It Is not strange that thev do not "Btand fast In one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the Gospel." How could It be otherwise? Faith Is simply a catchword with them; the meat of the Gospel Ls a mystery that they have taken little effort to master; a hard fight ls the last thing that they want; Balvr.tlon means about as much to them as changing their clothes. Dr. Newman Smyth ls not far wrong when he asserts that a new order of things will, in God's provi dence, supersede our present Chris tian religious systems. If we are to ,udge them by the fidelity of the majority of their members to the tact Gospel of God In Christ, the i.ooner the churches of Christ, as at present constituted, are superseded by a nobler order the better for tkf world. Primarily the church must de clare and elucidate the deepest spiri tual truths of the Klugdum of God without which there can be no found ed or balanced ethics. She must stand as the evangel of God speak ing with authority that truth in Christ, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, which Is supremely suffi cient for the salvation of the soull of men. She muBt deal first with the souls of men In their relationship with the father. Spirituality Ib her keynote. Tho revelation and expli cation of eternal spiritual mysteries ls her chief business. The call of God to the Church ol Christ to-day ls no different In es sence than It was to the men and women of the church at Phlllppl to whom Paul wrote. If It was essen tial for them to cut close to the pat tern supplied to them of God It is no ls necessary that we do the same. If they were called upon to " stand fast persistently and to a con clusion bo are we. If they had to use team p.'ay to accomplish the work of the kingdom how ran wo win suc cess by lesser methods and poorer fidelity But we have stood so fust, liter ally, that wo have almoin stood suil. We have striven together. But the striving has been of the wrong B,,r--We have stood fast In one spirit. Hut rery largely that spirit hat b9en that we have refused to lucouvenlence ourselves In the Interests of the king dom of God, for the goad of Ills chil dren and for the glory of the King Rut God commands something dif ferent. He summons us to another variety of living. His call Is that we shall be stead fast In our adherence to and advo cacy of those spiritual truths that constitute the -reason for and the richness of His church. Primarily the church ls not an inmltntka that exists to regulate morals, to supply a means for social Intercourse, to gather a crowd. That is In no sense to minimize the Importance, the place and the work of the church as a mentor and purifier of morals, a min ister to the social necessities of men. n gatherer of men for the purposo of supplying that verve that comes simply and sololv because we are a crowd filled with the same desires and adoring the same Lord. For we must direct conduct and meet the necdj of man as a social animal and recoznlic the value and the ir. fh:"nco of the crowd. But the call of God first to His church ls that she shall be experi enced In the knowledge of thev In effablo and spiritual truths oul of which spring the Impulses thr.t make for a godly ethics, a consecrated so ciety, a splrlt-movcd crowd. In ruch measure nnd manner that she i:all be able to declare, delineate nnd re veal to men with compelling power that wisdom of tho saving Father to know which nnd whom Is life eternal. That Is to say that the call of thr chi:rch first and all the time Ib to be n soirltr.nl evangel. Our duty ls to he trite to this rail. To live to this work To clenvc to this progrnm. To plan after this pat tern. To exalt this r.a our Ideal. Let t s stand fast perslst-ntly In and for this, rat'.'.er than pat rpon our past. Let ua strive together for this rather than nmong ourselves. Let us have the spirit of helpfulness rather than of lar.incss, and faith In God end in the power of His truth. Let ub be in nothing scared by our adversaries. Wo have heen, Sin makes a brave show. We have taken to our heelr. as It were, often at Its nppronch. We have had an unreas oning terror of Its power. And we have chronically overrated lis ability to bent us. But We have no more renon to be scared by pin than a child has-- to be frightened by Jack-in-the-box. The church can put sin to rout when It gets into right relationships with deity and Into the oropcr sort of fighting clothes, or else God, who (H not lie, prevaricates. He snys we can do It. He promises to enable us. He demonstrates the method, He pro vides th" stone and tho sllns. the helmet, the brenstnlatc. the nrmor. the two-edged flaming sword of Hl3 own consuming truth. Either we can or we cannot. If we can we ought. And we can if we will. For one, I believe that sin. unlike Achillea, '-3 vulnerable at every point. We have but to hit with the right weapons nnd hard to subdue It. For sin is a hulking, rotten mon ster to whom we need bo la bor Inge no longer than we desire thanks to the grace and the pOt"tiey of Col. And this is the call of God that we shall be true to the spiritual mis sion for which we are endowed nr.d that we shr.11 fight sin fearlessly to a finish. Kay we be true thereto. ! THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

It ls truly marvelous how the truth of the Word of Cod ls bMng vindi cated by modern discovery against the attacka made upon It by Interest ed critics. Few more exciting stories have eVer heen told than that which was narrated last week at the annual meeting of the Palestine. Exploration Fund. At the very time when the os.rl!or narts of the Old Te3tamr.t were be ing dismissed with contempt as "iin historic." the spades of excavators were busy disinterring long burled Canaanitish cities, with the result that "high places" of Idoltarv have been brought to light containing re mains of human sacrifices offered to heathen delti-s. Thus the bomina tlons of the Ammonite are actually exposed to our gaze. Even more interesting Is the dis covery of tho form of the ancient Philistine temples. Men who havo made sport of the story of Samson pulling down the nlllars of the tem ple upon the heads of hiB enemies, become, in t urn, the objects of de rision, as It Is now clearly shown what the "pillars" were, and how easily a strong man could have dis placed them to the undoing both of himself and of his fr.-a. In th light of thrsT erpert discoveries, believers have no need to apologize for their Bible; rather, they ought to expect an apology from those who have re lied upon Imagination rather than pound fact. London Christian. Gospel Truth the Instrument :f Re vival. The great historian Lecky har, In a noteworthy passage In his famous "History of England In the Eight eenth Century," declared that the secret of success of Methodism was merely that It satisfied some of tho strongest. and most enduring wants of our nature, which found no grati fication In the popular theologv: that It revived a large class of religious ('.:etr!nes which had long been al r.os? wholly neglected! The utter de pravity of humn nature, the lost c mdltion of everv man who is born Into tho world, the vicarious utonp ment of Christ, the necessity to sal vation of a new birth, of faith, of tho constant and sustaining action of the Divine Spirit upon the believer's soul, are doctrines which In the eyes of the modern evangelist constitute the most vital and the most Influ ential portions of Christianity, but tbey are doctrines which during the greater part of the elghteonth cen tury were seldom heard from a Church of England pulpit. Every student of the period knows that the wide and simple preaching of these doctrines of vital personal religion developed that nobler life which saved England from decay. London Christian.

Look nnd Live, 1 1. l.V Nirodemus was the tencher of Israel (v. 10, R. V.) and yet he did not know the fundamental truth taught In the Old Testament as well as the New, namely, the doctrine of the now birth. But do all the teach ers In the church know It even now? There wbb no speculation or guess work about Jesus' own teaching. He could any, "We sneak that we do know and bear witness of what we have seen" (v. 12, R. V.). Nlcodemus had asked Jesus, "How can these things be?" (v. 9). In the 14th and 15th verses Jesus answers Nlcodemus' question how. He pointed him to how Moses lifted up tile brazen ser pent, made In the llkenep3 of the fiery serpeni that had bitten the people, on the pole (Num. 21:6-9), Just so. Cod has lifted .Ie. us, made sin for us, on th" cross (Bom. ?:?,; 2 Cor. .1:21; Onl. o:1S; John 1S:S1, ?,2) . All the Israelite bitten by the fiery serpent had to do to find life was simply to believe In the power of the serpent on the pole to heal and to show his faith by Just looking. So nil we have to do Is slmplv to believe In the power of Jesus, made In the likeness of sin ful flesh and lifted oa the cross, to heal, and to show our faith by just looking. As soon as the Isrnellte looked he had life In his veins instead of dea'il. So we have death In us until we look, but the moment we really look to Jesus, believe on Him, then we have life coursing In our veins; life spiritual life takes tho place of death, wo are "born again." Cf. John 1:12, 13. The whole spcret of the new birth lies In these three WOrde, "Look and live." The monien we look, we are In Christ Jesuc, "Old things are passed away. Behold all thlncB are become new" (2 Cor.. t:17). There are two alternatives open to every man: Believe and have eternal life: doubt nnd neris's. Any on? tvliii believes will obtain eternal life. Anv one who dmbts will perish (c?. Hark l:16l John 8:88). II. Why Jeevs cetxtte, Vert 16 has probably been used to the sal vation of more rtfrons than any other verse In the Blb'.c. It contains the Co ,-d In a nutshell. (1) The need oi salvation "shall not perish." (2) The orlglr. of salvation God's love, (3) Tile ground of salvation the death o.' Christ (God gave Ills only begotten Son ) . (4) The condi tion of salvation "bellevei.li on Him." (5) The recipients of salva tion "Whosoever believeth." (B1 The results of salvation, (a) sSliall not perish, (b) Shall have eternal life. The verse also contains a mar velous revelation of Go l'l love. ( 1 ) The objects of God'3 love "the world." (2) The character of God'a love: (a) Great holding nothing back. (b) Self-sacrificing Iving His very bast, (c) Holv ror for giving sin without an adequate ex pression of His hatred of It. (.1) The manifestation of God's love, In the gift of His only begotten Son. (4) The purr.ose of God's love to save. (5) Tho result of God's love whosoever believes gets everlasting life. Verses 14 and 16 were spoken by Jesus Himself. He sneaks ol Himself, as He usually did, as the "Son of Man." Verse 1C is spoken by John, and ho speaks of Jesus as the "only begitten Son." It is com mon teaching nowadays that Jesus was the Son of God only In the sense that all men are sons of God, but the Bible clearly teaches thar He wa3 the Son of God in a sense that no other is the son of God. Jesus claims this for Himself (Mark 12 :C. R. V.; John 5:81, 22; 14:9). God sent His Son into the world to save It -not to con demn It (v. 17), but wnoever will not receive Jesus Is condemned, and con demned already. If we fall In with Cod's purposes, then we are saved. If we reject God's purposes of love, then He who came to save but brings the greater condemnation (cf. Heb. 10:2S, 29). The one who rejects .'esus 13 condemned ALREADY. It is not so much that the wrath of God Is coming upon those who reject Jesus Christ at some future time, the wrath of God, the Intense displeasure of God, already hangs over every one who rejects Jesus. If we continue to reject, the wrath of God will abide on us (v. 36). Tho moment we ac cept Jesus, wo step out from under neath the dark thunder cloud of. Cod's wrath Into the bright sunlight of God's favor. God aimed to save tho world. He made provision for the salvation of the world, but only those that accept the solvation are actually saved. Jesus ig in a sense the Saviour of all men (1 Tim. 4:10). By His death He made propitiation for the whole world (1 John 2:2, R. V.). Ho provided the ground upon which God could deal in mercy and does deal In mercy with every mem ber of the human race, but He ls es pecially the Saviour of those who be lieve. They alone appropriate to themselves and therefore enjoy In full the salvation which Jesus pur chased by His blood (Rom. 3:25, 26). The condemnation that comes on the one who does not believe ls just and inevitable. He has chosen darkness rather than light. The only begotteu Son came, the Incarnation of all the perfect attributes of God, and he would not have Him. What a man does with Jcbus shows what the man ls at heart. What a man chooses al ways shows .what a man ls. If we choose truth, then we are true. If wo choose falsehood, then we uru false. A CO." IB CONCERT.

Jesus came to be King, but he would not take the name of king from those who could see no further than the loaves and fishes. That would be to take pay for his llfework, when the one supreme teaching of his life was that kingship is In giving, not In getting. Ills humility was the genu ine humility of the royal soul. Title? did not attract him, because he came to give distinction, not to get It. Every servant of Jesus Christ has his triumphs In doing the Master's work. The kingdom comes, and some times we can see that we have helped It to come In our little circle But we shall spoil our joy In It If we take the triumph as personal. "I did It" ls a sure sign that the victory was not complete. Ba glad that the king dom compters, nnd be glad that yuu are helping, but be gladdest of all be cause you are In the kingdom; your name Is written In heaven. The psalmist Is going to be good. So he willsput away wicked things; he will have no dealings with the wicked In their weeks, ho will dls COtirage the slanderer, and he will re 1 uke the proud. Why? ilecause all these would spoil his purpose of good ness; the proud as surely as the otherwise wicked. Pride has many aspects; a high look, deceit, display, self-praise, exaggeration (not to say lying), and similar marks of wicked ness. For pride ls selfishness, and selfishness Is sin, and sin when It ls flr-Uhad brlngeth forth death. So ls there no tfeom for pride In tho heart that purposes to be good. Isn't II remarkable how much the Bble says about pride? Now, pride Is one of those forms of evil which lawmakers do not recotnlze. You may bo, as the saying goes, "as proud us I.tlclfer," and the law has nothing against you. But God has. Por irlde Is ono of the most effective weapons In the whole armory of sin. It defeats all the purposes of God. It takes his greatest gift, the gift of personality, nnd makes of It a god. And no Idola try Ig so demoralizing as self-worship Humility ls not degrading, but en nobling. It makes great service pos slble. He that humbleth himself shall be exalted. In that ho shall do work for God that shall make him great. Humility cannot be achieved by those who would use It as a stepping Btone to greatnesB. It must be a per manent uttltude of the soul. "If thou Won Mat find much favor and peace with God and man, be very low In thine own eyes: forgive thyself little, nnd others much." NAME3. Your child naturally remembers lis herltago from Adam, and loves 0 glvo names of It is own to the anl nals and oven to his comrades. There was a boy who used to go ast the Brier-Patch and who was nvarlably called Butts-up Ijy bis !ellows, because In making his dog touse ho nailed all his shingles butt mds up. That dog-house was a weird light, even to a rabbit, and it caught ivery drop of rain nnd lot in to fall n tho shivering brilte benaath. furiously enough, this name, given y somo true son of Adam, was more impropriate ftj all the boy's usual icflons than tho historic name hlu nother called him by. Thero is also 1 certain little girl who trips past ho Brier-Patch, nnd, whenever she isks for tho'namo of a thing, hor ather shako his head and lets her tame It herself. So she calls the wl Oo-hoo, and the young sparrows f'eep-peep, and tho rnoukoy Make a ace, and the water Lodle-odle, and ho waves Tlkoowuk, becausa that Is what the waves aro always saying to be rocks. In a few moro years, be ildes seeing and thinking for herself, iho will havo a vocabulary not only nore Interesting, but nearer to the .ruth of nature than all the Jargon )f your scientists and the adjectives )f your literary men.
