Ijtik helonJrV untrammeled, unpurchasabfe ' throne in the world The preacher, if ha be a real preacher, is God-called, God- -filled, divinely fitted., and annernatur - and message, are are of supernatur al origin. Therefore, he is decreed to be a leader. If h meets these re quirements he is an expert in his exalted 'position. - When ever.a min ister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ andliis vicarious death, steps out of this exalted place and fails to per form his duty as a courageous lead er and. fearless defender of the faith delivered at once tor all to the saints lie becomes quilty and. must be held responsible for all the ills that re sult from his failure.. -: There are ministers "who have no doubt, stepped from this high re sponsible place and they are threfore guilty of all the evils of the coun try that hav come as a direct re sult of their actions. Such ministers - ar chargeable with the following de fects: . Hirst: Laziness. They do not work, not even half time. Their sermons show it Their fences are down. Thir churches are unorgan ized, They donoty take any part in th ecivic life of their community. Second: They are cowards. They are afraid to speak plainly, pointed ly, and persistently' against the sins of their members. They are far from being like John the Baptist Thy do not demand respect and at tention from men because they do not meet men and challenge thm in thir evil doings. They do not stind like brave men should stand face to face with a guilty brother and ac cuse him. Third: Busy idlene'ss: They are engaged in attending pink teas, and foolish female functions, whereas I wM thy should be in the marts of trade on the floors of assemblies and lod ges, business and political' meetings, ana social gatherings where men H and where they could stind noors of such meetings, expose evil, defend virtue, and advocate righteous ness. ; . ; , . . .. ,,, rourth: , Jnfidelity. . 'They have yielded to the Goddess of Heresv.. and have made a direct attack upon the infallible Word of God and the blood atonement of Jesus Christ. Such men are undermining the faith of the young and unsophisticated saints and are1 sending ' thousands a anit into skepticism and sin. Such men are parasites. Thev are draw- ing salaries fraudently because they contracted to preach the infallible Word of .God and the vicarious at- onment of Jusus Christ' They are preaching something else. Therefore such conduct. is dishonest : Such men ate largely responsible for the rise of the infamous cults and the spread of irreverence, frivolity, im propriety, domestic infidelity, reli gious infidelity, apostasy, and gener al social criminality. If the preachers were preaching faithfully, fearlessly, courageously the whole gospel of Jesus Christ, and were exposing crime, dmanding con- fssion, and bringinr men face to face with the judgment of their deeds, the crime wave of this country would subside at once, and a great revival of religion would begin.
