    IN HIS STEPS.
"What Would Jesus Do?"
By CHARLES M. SHELDON.
fOopyriRhtml and published In book form by
Vim Advanoe l'oIliUiug Co. of Uilaago.

'WUiit is the test of Chnstiaa diaci
pleeliip T Is it not the same as in Christ's
own lifotimof Have onr trarroti ridings
modified or changed the test? if Jesus
were here Unlay, would he not cull some
of the memliers of thiri very church to
do just what he commanded tha young
man and nek him to give up his wealth
and literally follow him? I believe he
would do that if he felt certain that
any church mcmler thought more of
his possessions than of his Saviour. The
test would lie the same today as then.
I believe Jesus would demand, he does
demand now, as close a following, as
much Buffering, as great 8eif denial, as
When he lived in person on the earth
and said. 'Except a man renonnceth all
that he hath, he cannot lie my disciple'
that is. unless he is willing to do it
for my sake he cannot he my disciple.
"Whjit would be the result if in this
city every church member should begin.
tO'io ..s Jesus wonld do? It is not easy
to go into details of MM result, but we
all know that certain things would be
impossible that are now practiced by
church members. What would Jesus do
in the matter of wealth ? How wonld
he spend it V What principle would reg
ulate his use of money 1 Would ho be
likely to live in great luxury and sjiend
ten times as much on personal adorn
ment and entertainment us he spent to
relieve the needs of suffering hnuianity V
How would Jesus be governed in the
making of money? Would he take rent
als from saloon and other disreputable
property or even from tenement prop
erty that was so constructed that the
inmates had no such thing as a home
and no such possibility as privacy or
cleanliness ?
"What would Jesus do about the
great army of unemployed and desper
ate who tramp the streets and curse
the church or are indifferent to it, lost
is the bitter struggle for the bread that
tastes hitter when it is earned, on ac
count of the desperate conflict to get it?
Would Jesus care nothing for them?
Would he go his way in comparative
ease and comfort? Wenjd he say it was
nflne of bis business? Wonld he excuse
himself from all responsibility to remove
the causes of such a condition T
"What would Jesus do in the center
of a civilization that hurries so fast
after money that the very girls em
ployed in great business houses are not
paid enough to keep soul and body to
gether without fearful temptations, so
great that score of them fall and are
i swept over the great, boiling abyss;
"where the demands of trade sacrifice
UUWUDUI IM IBHie IU m UHUUflB U1BI
nores all Christian duties toward them
in the way of education and moral
training and personal affection T Would
Jesus if he were here today, as a part
of onr age and commercial industry,
feel nothing, do nothing, say nothing,
in the face of these facts, which every
business man knows?
"What would Jesus do? Is not that
what the disciple ought to do? Is he
not commanded to follow in his steps?
How much is the Christianity of the
age suffering for him? Is it denying it
self at the cost of ease, comfort, luxury,
elegance of living? What doee the age
need more than personal sacrifice ? Does
the church do its duty in following
Jesus when it gives a little money to
establish missions or relieve extreme
oasee of want ? Is it any sacrifice for a
man who is worth $10,000,000 simply
to give $10,000 for some benevolent
work? Is he not giving something that
costs him practically nothing, so far as
any personal pain or suffering goes? Is
it true that the Christian disciples to
V. w1 1 A. . 1 l IL.t J
day in most of our churches are living
soft, easy, selfish lives, very far from
any sacrifice that can be called sacrifice ?
What would Jesus do?
"It is the personal element that
Christian discipleship needs to empha
sise. 'The gift without the giver ia
bare.' The Christianity that attempts
to suffer by proxy is not the Christian
ity of Christ Each individual Chris
tian, business man, citizen, needs to
follow in his steps along the path of
personal sacrifice for him. There is not
a different path today from that of
Jesus' own times. It is the same path.
The call of this dying century and of
the new one soon to be is called for a
new discipleship, a new fellowship of
Jesus, more like the early, simple, apos
tolic Christianity when the disciples
left all and literally followed the Mas
ter. Nothing but a discipleship of this
kind can face the destructive selfishness
of the age with any hope of overcoming
it. There is a great quantity of nom
inal Christianity today. There is need
of more of the real kind We need a
revival of the Christianity of Christ
We have, unconsciously, lazily, selfish
ly, formally, grown into a discipleship
that Jesus himself would not acknowl
edge. He would say to many of us
when we cry, 'Lord, Lord,' 'I never
knew you. ' Are we ready to take up
the cross? Is it possible for this church
to sing with exact truth :
"Jeeu,, I mjr croaa hare taken.
All to laa Tt aad follow thee?
"If we can sing that truly, then we
may claim discipleship, but if our defi
nition of being a Christian is simply to
enjoy the privileges of worship, be gen
erous at no expense to ourselves, have
a good, easy time, surrounded by pleas
ant friends and by comfortable things,
live respectably and at the same time
avoid the world's great stress of sin and
trouble because it ia too much pain to
hear it if this is our definition of
Christianity, surely we are a long way
from following the steps of him who
trod the way with groans and tears and
sobs of anguish for a lost humanity ;
who sweat, as it were, great drops of
blood : who cried out on the upreared
cross, 'My God. my God. why hast thou
forsaken me?"
"Are we ready to make and live a
new discipleship 1 Are we ready to re
consider our definition of a Christian?
What is it to be a Christian? It is to
imitate Jesus. It is to do as ho would
do. It is to waik in his stops. "
When Henry Maxwell finished his
sermon, he paused and looked at the
people with a look they never forgot
and at the moment did not understand.
Crowded into that fashionable hutch
that day were hundreds of men and
women who had for years lived the
easy, satisfied life of a nominal Chris
tianity. A great silence fell over the
congregation. Through the silence there
came to the consciousness of all the
sov.ls there present a knowledge, stran
ger to them now fo years, of a Divine
power. Everyone xpectod the preacher
to cull for volunteers who would do as
Jesus wonld do, but Henry Maxwell
had been led by the Spirit to deliver
his message this time and wait for re
sults to come.
lie closed the service with a tender
prayer that kept the Divine presence
lingering very near every bearer, and
the people slowly rose to go out.
Then followed a scene that would
have been Impossible if any mere man
had been alouo in his striving for re
sults. Men and women in great nnmbirs
jrowded around the platform to see
Henry Maxwell and to bring him the
promise of their consecration to the
pledge to do us Je.sus would do. It
wus a voluntary) spontaneous move
ment that broke upon Maxwell's soul
with a result he could not measure. Hut
had ho not been praying for this very
thing? It was an answer that more
than met his desires,
There followed this movement a
prayer service thai in its impressions
repeated the Raymond experience. In
the evening, to Maxwell s intense joy.
the Endeavor society, almost to a mem
ber, came forward, as so many of the
chnrch members had done in the morn
ing, and seriously, solemnly, tenderly,
took the pledge to do as Jesus would
do. A deep wave of spiritual baptism
broke over the meeting near its close
that was indescribable in its tender,
joyful, sympathetic results.
That was a remarkable day in the
history of that church, but even more
so in the history of Henry Maxwell. He
left the meeting very late. He went to
his room at the settlement, where he
was still stopping, and after an hour
with the bishop and Dr. Bruce, spent in
a joyful rehearsal of the wonderful
events of the day, he sat down to think
over again by himself all the experience
he was having as a Christian disciple.
He kneeled to pray, as he always did
now, before going to sleep, and it was
while he was on his knf.es this night
that ha had a waking vision of what
might be in the world when once the
new discipleship had made its way into
the conscience and consciousness of
Christendom. He was fully conscious of
being awake, but no less certainly did
it seem to him that he saw certain re
sults with great distinctness, partly as
realities of tho future, partly as great
longings that they might be realities,
and this is what Henry Maxwell saw in
this waking vision :
He saw himself first going back to th
First church in Raymond, living then
in u simpler, more self denying fashion
than he had yet been willing to observe,
because ho saw ways in which he could
help others who were really dependent
on him for help. He also saw more dim
ly that tho time would come when his
position as paster of the church would
cause him to suffer more, on acconnt of
growing opposition to his interpretation
of Jesus and his conduct, but this was
vaguely outlined. Through it all he
heard tho words. "My grace is suffi
cient for thee. "
Ho saw Rachel Winslow and Virginia
Page going on with their work of serv
ice at the Rectangle and reaching out
loving hands of helpfulness far beyond
the limits of Raymond. Rachel he saw
married to Rollin Page, both fully con
secrated to the Master's use, both fol
lowing in his steps with an eagerness
intensified and purified by their love
for each other, and Rachel's voice sang
on in the slams and dark places of de
spair and sin and drew lost souls back
to God and heaven once more.
He saw President Marsh of the col
lege using his great learning and his
great influence to purify the city, to
ennoble its patriotism, to inspire the
young men and women who loved as
well as admired him to live lives of
Christian service, always teaching them
that education means great responsibil
ity for the weak and the ignorant. He
saw Alexander Powers meeting with
sore trials in his family life, with a
constant sorrow in the estrangement of
wife and friends, but still going his
way in al honor, seeing and living in
all his strength the Master, whom he
had obeyed even unto loss of social dis
tinction and wealth.
He saw Milton Wright, the merchant,
meeting with great reverses, thrown
upon the future by a combination of
circumstances, with vast business in
terests involved in ruin, through no
fault of his own, but coming out of all
his reverses with clean Christian honor,
to begin and work up to a position
where he could again be to hundreds of
young men an example of what Jesus
would be in business.
He saw Edward Norman, editor of
The News, by means of the money giv
en by Virginia, creating a force in jour
nalism that in time came to be recog
nized as one of the real factors of the
nation, to mold its principles and actu
ally shape its policy, a daily illustra
tion of the might of a Christian press
and the first of a series of such papers
begun and carried on by other disciples
who had also taken the pledge.
He saw Jasper Chase, who had denied
hit Master, growing into a cold, cynical,

formal life, writing novels that were
social sneces-ics, but each one with a
iting in it, the reminder of his denial,
the bitter remorse that, do what he
wonld, ne social success could remove.
He saw Hose sterling, dependent for
Mime years upon her aunt and Felicia,
finally married to a man far older than
herself, accepting the burden of a rela
tion that bad no love in it on her part
because of her desire to be the wife of a
rich man and enjoy the physical lux
uries that were all of life to her. Over
this life also the vision cast certain
dark and awful shadows, but they were
not shown to him in detail.
He saw Felicia and Stephen Clyde
happily married, living a beautiful life
together, enthusiastic, joyful in suffer
ing, pouring out their great, strong,
fragrant service into the dijl. dark,
terrible places of the great city and re
deeming souls through the personal
touch of their home, dedicattsl to the
human homesickness all about them.
Ho saw Dr. Bruce and the bishop go
ing on with the settlement work. He
teemed to see the great blazing motto
over the door enlarged, "What Would
Jesus Do?" and the daily answer to
that question was redeeming the city
in its greatest need.
He saw Burns an J his companion
and a great company of men like them
redeemed and going in turn to others,
cononerinv their passions by the Divine
grace a. u proving by their daily jives
the reality of the new birth, even in the
lowest and most abandoned.
And now the vision was troubled It
seemed to him that as he kneeled he be
gan to pray, and the vision was more
of a longing for a future than a reality
in the future. The church of Jesus in
the city and throughout the country
would it follow Jesus 1 Was the move
ment begun in Raymond to spend itself
in a few churches like Nazareth Avenue
and the otio where he had preached to
day and then die away as a local move
ment, a stirring on tho surface, but not
to extend deep and far'? He felt with
agony after tho vision again. He
thought he saw the church of Jesus in
America open its heart to the moving
of the Spirit and rise to the sacrifice of
its ease and self satisfaction in the
name of Jesus. Ho thought he saw the
motto, "What Wonld Jesus Do?" in
scribed over every chnrch door and
written on every church member's
heart. Tho vision vanished. It came
back clearer than before, and he saw
the Endeavor societies all over the
world carrying in their great proces
sions at some mighty convention a ban
ner on which was inscribed, "What
Would Jeans Do?" and he thought in
the faces of the young men and women
he saw future joy of suffering, loss,
self denial, martyrdom, and when this
part of the vision slowly faded he saw
the figure of the Son of God beckoning
to him and to all the other actors in his
life history. An angel choir somewhere
was singing. There was a sound as of
many voices and a shout as of a great
victory, and tho figure of Jesus gTew
more and more splendid. He stood at
the end of a lpng flight of steps. "Yes I
Yes I O my Master, has not the time
come for this dawn of the millennium
of Christian history? Oh, break upon
the Christendom of this age with the
light and tho truth I Help us to follow
thee all the way I"
He rose at last with the awe of one
who has looked at heavenly things. He
felt the human forcee and the human
sins of tho world as never before, end,
with a hope that walks hand in hand
with faith and love, Henry Maxwell,
disciple of Jesus, laid him down to sleep
and dreamed of the regeneration of
Christendom and saw in his dream a
church of Jesus "without spot or wrin
kle or any such thing," following him
all the way, walking obediently in his
steps.

"This is the time of year when our
troubles begin and when we have to do
some hard thinking in order to lessen
them," remarked a young woman
stenographer in u large office, where
more than a dozen young women who
"play" the typewriter and draw "crow
tracks" in notebooks are employed.
She added:
"It is the hardest thing in the world
for us to flnd Substitutes to do our
work while we are on a vacation. It
isn't because there are not plenty of
women who ure willing and anxious
to relieve us. Why, a two-line 'ad.' in
any paper would bring applicants
enough to fill each of our places twice
over, but "
"Wouldn't they be likely to prove
satisfactory?" inquired a listener.
"Oh, yes," was the reply, "if they at
tended to business. If the 'sub' Is up
to the mark in skill and looks after her
duties, all goes well, but four times out
of five such is not the case. We select
our substitute and spend a couple of
days showing her how things should be
done, and then go away with a con
tented mind. Before the end of the
first week we hear all sorts of discour
aging reports from the office. The new
girl has been sick half of the time And
correspondence has had to lie over; or
the work has been harder than she ex
pected, and she has asked to be relieved
of part of it until she became acquaint
ed with the routine.
"If," continued the young woman,
"she is punctual and willing to work.
It is not unusual to find that her serv
ices are of little or no value. She per
sists in spelling words with one 1 when
two are needed, puts small letters
where there should be capitals, and
never makes more than one paragraph
to the page. Of course, this state of
things makes it bad for the regular op
erator indirectly. If, for example, the
operator that relieves mo for two or
three weeks this summer proves to be
a 'plug,' tbe chances are that next year
I shall have to spend half the summer
looking for a competent relief or else
be deprived of a holiday altogether."
