8 VOICES OF THE PULPIT CR. WENDTE RETURNS TO UNITY CHURCH THE SCIENCE OF SALVATION Burt Estes Howard Gives Sound Ad vice to Soul-Doctors —The Letter and the Spirit Rev. Cbas. W. Wendte, pastor of the Church of the Unity, preached yesterday for the first time since his recent long and serious Illness. He was greeted by a large congregation and warmly welcomed back by his parishioners. Mr. Wendte's discourse was on St. Paul's Injunction: "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." There are two ways of treating the evil In man's breast. We can either grapple In turn with each particular sin, and tear It out, root and branch, or we can strength en the general moral nature and enable 1: of Itself to eliminate all special forms of personal delinquency. Which of these two methods approves it self as the best? Do we strengthen virtue most by fighting sin, or do we light sin most effectively by increasing virtue? Shall cur main endeavor in the moral life be to antagonize the evil in ourselves and the world, or shall we strive first and chiefly to foster the good? St. Paul advises us to the latter effort. He says: "Overcome evil with good." But the Christian church has usually, and most mistakenly, held to the contrary. The piety of former days—too often of our own day—has been so absorbed with the problem of evil that it has taken little thought of the more important and endur ing Interests of the good. Based on the mistaken notion of tho total depravity of human nature, it has despised and de nounced itself; it has mortified the flesh: It has pied penance on penance; It has lived under the supposed wrath of God, and shrunk in terror at thought of his judg ments. Tet it did not make the progress it desired in virtue, and was morally in ferior to the noblest types of piety in our own more liberal age. Above all. It never arrived at a Just conception of tho good ness and love which are the pillars of our universe and the essential traits in Its divine Creator. i If liberal Christianity had done nothing else than to deliver man from this terrible nightmare of the supremacy of evil in the world, It would deserve the lasting grati tude of the human race. It teaches us that man Is not, as the old theology declared, a child of the devil whom God Is trying to steal, but a child of God who ought to defy and overcome the devil. Not to drive hell out of a man, but to breathe heaven Into him Is the true purpose of the Chrisian religion, the true method of religious cul ture. Evil Is negative, self-limited, self destructive. God Is positive, constructive. and of the nature of the Eternal. There fore let your main endeavor be to strength en the good in yourself and others. Raise the general level of your soul life to kind lier purpose and holier thought and will. Overcome the evil in you by forestalling It with good. Build up the good also In general society by strengthening men, the measures and the Institutions that repre sent the advancement of truth and right eousness in the world. Labor to Increase honest business, pure politics, clean news papers, efficient schools and earnest churches in the community. Every happy smile on a child's face which you have elicited, every throb of joy in your neigh bor's breast of which you are the cause, every kind speech or generous deed that flows from you widens the circle of light and Increases the power of the good. It helps to stifle error, to dethrone unreason and destroy unrighteousness. You are at one with tho divine purpose of the crea tion, which is nothing less than tho ever increasing victory of truth over error, of right over wrong, of good over evil, and of God over all. POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST Key. L. M. Hartley Fills His Pulpit in Simpson Tabernacle Rev. L. M. Hartley has so far recovered from his recent illness that he was able to fill his pulpit yesterday morning In Simpson tabernacle. He took his text from Aetß 1:8: "Ye shall receive power after the Holy Ghost comes upon you, and ye shall be witnesses of me in Jerusalem and in Judea, and to all nations." Thirty-throe years before the event of my text, interest of all classes centered in the Redeemer of Mankind—the castle of the king as well as in the cottage of his humblest servant. His miraculous power exercised as he progressed in his work and mission from the manger to the cross on Calvary, and culminated in the forty days he was with his disciples after the resur rection until now. He was present with them for the last time, and the great teacher was impressing upon his loyal dis ciples that his departure was at hand. His last message of the Divine Master was that of the text. The central thought in this text is, ye shall witness for me In Jerusalem and in Samaria. Ye shall take my teachings and sow them in human hearts. You shall take what I have given the only hope for a lost world—salvation for a sin ful race. This is also true that the great Bavlor of Mankind, in his work of saving man, has associated human beings with him to carry out the great plan of salva tion. As jurisprudence depends on testi tnoney, so does tho kingdom of Jesus Christ depend on testimony. David said: "I have not restrained my lips—l have not hid thy truths in my heart, but I have de clared them in righteousness. So today it Is necessary to declare the salvation we profess in righteous lives in good works and good words. The Christian is a wit ness for Jesus Christ, in that he is the representative In all things—tempted and tried like he was. He is to live the Christ life; he is to suffer as Christ suf fered. These things are possible; they are actual. To represent the Chrlstlife when endowed with this power given by the Holy Ghost and this power has multi plied a thousand times the power of nat ural laws, until we witness on every hand developments more miraculous if pos sible than a perfect Christ life in a human life inspired and impelled by the power of the Holy Ghost. LETTER AND SPIRIT Rev. David Walk at the Church of Christ David Walk, In the Church of Christ on Eighth street, near Central avenue, read a portion of I. Corinthians, 15th chap ter, and directed attention to the Iffy-eighth verse. The main theme of this wonderful chapter Is the doc trine of the resurrection, which the apostle turns to this practical account. He Indi cates the use we should make of this joyful conviction. He is not contented with col lecting material, but ho builds; It is not enough to plow and sow, be reaps and gathers Into barns. He cannot dismiss the subject until he has clinched it with the confident and logical "therefore." In view of the certainty of the resurrection, be steadfast and unmovable; let nothing shake your faith; cling to this blessed hope of the Gospel. Such a course of conduct is to know the power of the resurrection. We must not conclude that we understand any doctrine till we have seen its bearing and influence upon our lives. To live in con formity with the teaching is the attestation of our faith In it. To know the character, something Is requisite in addition to the recognition of the physical features. An acquaintance with the letter is of small avail; the essential thing Is to feel its in fluence and know Its tendency in our lives If we really believe the truth we will prac tice the holiness which It Imposes. We must not only be steadfast and unmovable, but we must be always abounding In the work of the Lord. I Two things are requisite In a soldier steadiness under Are and enthusiasm in a charge. Dashing courage which carries a position by storm is something grand; but the long march, nights In the trenches, be ginning of battle, critical points during the campaign, these are essential virtues. It requires more courage to stand still in obe dience to orders than to fight. This Is the crucial test. It is required that we be steadfast In the doctrine of Christ, for the admonition cov ers tho whole area of Christian life. Be assured of what you know and cling to it. A Christian believes something. There is something more in his creed than nega tions. If I did not believe that Jesus Christ arose from the dead and that all who sleep in Him are destined to an immortality of bliss, I would never preach another sermon, offer another prayer, sing another hymn, visit the graves of my dead, or speak a word to the bereaved—for I would have no word to speak! Finally, It is essential that we be stead fast in character building. Faith controls conduct. If there is no future we may as well eat, drink and be merry; but inas much as we already have the earnest of Immortality in the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit, we must persevere in holy liv ing, which is the fruit of such persuasion. CHRISTIANS AND ARISTOCRATS Rev. Rice Draws a Few Pertinent Comparisons At the Universalist church the subject considered by the pastor, Rev. A. A. Rice, was "Christianity and Aristocracy," text. Coi., 111:14, "Where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumclsion, barbarian, Scythian, bondman, freeman." An abstract Is as follows: "We long for that condition of affairs where the non-es sential differences between men are un recognized and class distinctions are oblit erated, where the term aristocracy is un known and there cannot be Greek and Jew. . . . bondman, freeman. This longing for the superior. Christian condition is In tensified because of the absence of such condition. A great portion of ills fall to the lot of man because everywhere men observe minor existing differences and be come puffed up by lewering the standard of self-Judgment from that which God has set in each soul to that of the failure of others. Aristocracy holds the germs of disintegration. The tendency to become self-satisfied because we have attained to more of wealth or culture or position than others Is the greatest foe of Christianity and has no part with it. "A common aristocracy is that of intel lect. We are familiar with the egotism and the boasting of the many who believe in their own superior enllghtt nment. But Christianity makes more of the original endowment or capacity of mind than of its stage of development. The founder of our great religion exhibited no lack of wisdom when he selected the uncultured, Illiterate and even Ignorant to promulgate the all important gospel. If he recognized and gave such prominence to natural, Intellect ual endowment, why should we Ignore it when we contemplate our own slight facility of mind? The breadth of Christi anity leaves little ground for our boasted learning. "There Is also the aristocracy of ethics. The 'I am better than thou - is everywhere prevalent. Here again Christ holds up the true standard by which we should judgf ourselves. When confronted by self righteous men, bearing a guilty woman In their midst, he pointed to God's standard of right when he said: 'He who Is without sin among you let him first cast the stone at her.' He also gave expression to the words: 'When ye shall have done all the things that are commanded you, say, we are unprofitable servants.' In this he rec ognized man's Inherent moral nature as vastly more Important than grades In moral advancement. For that organized Pnarasale aristocracy of his day he had only words of denunciation and warning. 'Woe unto you! Ye enter not in yourselves, neither suffer them that are entering In to enter.' His whole noble life was given to establish that kingdom 'where there can not be Greek and Jew.' " FIRST PRESBYTERIAN Burt Estes Howeard on the Way of Salvation "Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for il Is God that worketh In you, both to will and to work, for his good pleasure," Phil. xl:12-18, was the text announced by Rev. B. E. Howard at the First Presbyterian church. "To Paul the universe is not a haphazard jumble of con vulsive forces by whose insane clutch mat ter is tortured into fantastic forms that have no meaning. Taul has considerable to say about the divine purposes and he does speak about predestination and elec tion. But the main point is not what he said, but what he meant. Paul is simply ap plying principles which we all freely admit in the physical world. Predestination and election are nothing but the theological way of stating the scientific principles of the survival of the fittest and natural se lection: survival of the fittest, predestina tion, election, all are visions of the same great eternal purpose refracted through various types of mind. We have made a mistake In our concep tion of this law. viewed theologically, be cause we have regarded it as a blind thrust ing in of tho divine hand to ele>ct haphazard some individual to glory In the future life with no reference to personal illness, an ar bitrary, willful, unreasoning choice. The s.implo fact is that God finds a thing or a man that is meet to be used In his process of creation, he takes it and uses it. God's purposes roll on in sublime majesty of omnipotence and none can stay them In their course until they are accomplished. But the Inexorablencss of the onward trend of events docs not blot out the freedom of the man. He may defeat himself but he cannot defeat tire Almighty. He stands in the presence of a conscious choice. He may obey the laws of Clod and become even now a part of the dMvilne temple or he may make himself useless and rend.lt. LOS ANGELES HERALD* MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 21, 1898 So salvation Is a matter of fitness to en ter Into the realization of God's Ideal both for the world and for man. It refers whol ly to a man's or a nation's approximation to the Ideal set forth by God to their ca pacity to be used) and absorbed fflto the eternal structure which God Is rearing. Paul Is constantly Insisting on this Idea of divine purpose. Salvation, then, isthedt velopment of holy character and the en tering Into the eternal structure of God. It Is measured In terms of divine manhood and divine usefulness. What are our reason and spiritual Intuition but the capaoity to enter Into fellowship with God in car rying forward his eternal process of ere-1 arion? INDWELLING CHRIST Gospel Service at the Young Women's Christian Association The gospel service at the Young Women's Christian association yesterday afternoon was In charge of Mrs. D. W. Lewis of the First Baptist church. Her subject was "The Indwelling Christ," taken from the text (Gal. HI til): "The Christian Is given the elements that make up Christian character and by the aid of the Holy Spirit they must be nurtured that he may become strong and useful. Faith Is the foundation; to this must be added virtue or nobility of character and knowl edge of the only true God and Jesus Christ whom he hath sent. This-knowledge Is to be obtained by reading God's word. There must also be patience, godliness and broth erly kindness, and, most important of all. love; love not alone for friends and com panions but for the fallen and theunlovely. This must finish andi beautify Christian character. Universal Brotherhood At the Universal Brotherhood meeting, 525 West Fifth street. Miss Wheeler spoke on "The Triple Unity" of the International Brotherhood League, the Theosophical So ciety In America and the Universal Broth erhood. "These three." she said, "formed a strong, harmonious and effective organi zation for human service. The Interna tional Brotherhood league is organized to bring truth, light and liberation to dis couraged humanity, to educate children, to ameliorate the condition of unfortunate women and assist them to a higher life, and to extend comfort and to relieve suffering throughout the world. "The Theosophlcal society becomes the literary and academic department of the great movement where self-knowledge and a knowledge of the laws of nature which govern man can be obtained. Universal brotherhood is an endeavor to bring into practical daily life the spirit of brotherly love and enlist in one grand cause all who love and strive for the brotherhood of man. Y. M. C. A. The sixth entertainment of the course will be given tonight at the Young Men's Christian association hall, and it promises to be one of the best. The woman's orches tra under the leadership of Harley Hamil ton, will give an instrumental concert. These ladles have been organized as an or chestra for five years, and while they have done some excellent work in the past, they are doing better than ever now. There is a rich treat in store for all who hear them.
