Church Loses Power Unless ! t Christians Bear The?Cross A pontic* Hadn't Enough Social Standing to keep Out of Jail but They Had Power Because They Were Not Ashamed of a Gospel that Was Foolish to Wise "The Apostles hadn't enough i social standing to keep out of Jail l>ut they had power??power to turn the world upside down. "Today the church has plenty of. social standing, plenty ol wealth, but mighty little power. "The Apostles preached Jesus Christ and Him crucified and were not ashamed of a gospe* ..tat was foolishness to the worldly wise. "Many of our modern preaeh era are afraid to prench such a gospel lest it be said of them that ,hey are not seholarly. "Science may tell us that only j le flt survive, but I tell you that ?us carac to make the unfit flt to survive. The reason whv you! Methodists got somewhere In your Wealeyan revival is that you went' after tinners?not the society crowd. Now you have got the so ciety crowd and the Methodists are getting as cold and as Indif ferent as some of these orthodox hide-bound Baptlats or these cold etorage bottled-in-bond Presbyte rians. "I tell yon God Is sick and tired of this foolishness. He put us here to save ihe lost and we ar* doing everything else under the aun except what he commissioned us to do." This was the burden of Evan gelist Ham's message Tuesday night In his sermon on ''The Cross in the Christian's Experience" and la no previous service has the evangelist held lil? congregation so Completely In the hollow of his haid and carried it to such heights of feeling. In way of Ulustration the evan gelist recited a number of thril ling experiences through which he had passed in his evangelistic work, when he waa offered per sonal violence or when his very life was threatened by angry mobs; and his hearers followed him in almost breathless sllcnce ttirotfthont the raeftal A number of buslneaa houses were added to the llat of thoae that are closing during the morn ing service at the tabernacle, tn tjdln* C. H. Robinson Company. ? Stevens Jobbing Company, d Brock & Scott. A number of ma were also mentioned as hav ing been Inadvertantly left out of the half page advertisement giv ing a list of the firma closing in Monday's Issue of thia newspaper, notably the firm of MeCabe & Orice. which has been closing for soma time. M'^lng Attendance Incre**?-? ?ae morning attendance is steadily increasing and it is the general verdict of those who are attending both services at the tab ernacle that the morning talks are equally as helpful, if not more so. i ban the night meetings. The tabernacle chorus, now ?ure of Itself and thoroughly re sponsive- to Its director, is render ing Inspiring music at every ser vice. The musical program Tues day night wss featured again by an appropriately Interpolated duct "Why Not Trust Him for All," j sung by Messrs. Ramsay and Rog [era at the close of Mr. Ham's ser mon. Mr. Ramsay highly entertained the sudlence with chsractorlstlc comment and anecdote during the taking of the collection. "You j ^shers there." he erled as they were Just on the point of begin ning passing around the collection plates, "drop In something your selves for a nest egg If you want the folks to lay to It." It was announced that the Red Men of the city will attend the service in a body Thursday night and occupy a speelal section which will be reserved for them. They areaxpectcd (o come several hun M strong for this service. "It s^Mood thing nobody is countlnx gML men Iti this congregation an tiro n this plstform." said Chor ister Ranmay In making the fore going announcement. ? Wtien the evangelist took the platform he began his service, an Is his almost Invariable custom with prayer, and made specific mention of special cases In which the prsyers of the congregation have been requested. Tt?c t'nfll *?> (VdM iVuiltur The M.'MOa last night foi'. ?? "If any man would follow me let bim take up his cross dally and follow me." "If any man is ashamed of mo or of my words, ths same Is not my disciple, and of Him will I be ashamed before ray father which la In .Heaven." The Bible does not Indulge In repetition and whtn Christ spoke of bring "ashamed of me or of my tordi" he was not repeating himself nor referring to things which could be construed to mesn the ?sme thing .T*su* left earth 1,000 years sgo and went to heav en wher* Me Is today. To be sure fhsre fellowship with him thru > Holy flplrlt, which dwells In but Christ Himself Is abwenr wevfr. we have Hla words here and He tells us that If we are aahamed of them we tre not His disciples. Now In this word which he has left ?? we learn that we mast take up ft CTtflfc It is this C roes that ?very Christian must and does bear that we want to study tonight. - ? The cross of tho Christian like _thc Cross of Christ has two bides, the appealing, popular side whUh at'racts the admiration :?url ;ip plause of the world ami the otlu?r side which pr sent? a bloc'i pic ture which is moat offeneivo to mankind. The Uiblo often refers to the "offense of the cross." There Is the side of the croM that displays Christ's great love for man. hl? ?:cr*?ic death. hla~ sacri ficial suffering; thf ? excite:; tlie adzniraiou and syn athy of- the world. It Inspires the world. It shows Christ as hero and the world applauds. . During the war th?' soldiers were urged to emulate the example of Christ an i .3 their lives for the betterment of mau, but I say to you there was no similarity be tween t?e death of Christ on the cross and the death of the huT dler on the battlefield. Jesus came to earth for one purpose and mat vai to dkv fl'wili! i\ .< c - rlfl**e for man. The soldier went to the battlefield to kill. Thire Is a great difference. Hut that side of tho cross which is offen sive is that which icve.ils the de pravity of man. that shows to the j world th<; depths to* which the creature had sunk. Think of It! The creature taking It.-? own crea tor and murdering Him. Thlnl: of It! Man became so depraved, so wretchca so blind that ha took God. tUtough whom he was made and adjudged Him guilty ard worthy of the meat ignominious death. The "OrfciW of i lir < roM When the apostles speak of the If "offense of tiif i ros.s" it is to this aido thut tb^y ?"for?the ?Ido that ?hows the ho?d!njsnes?. the j wretchedness, the itupravtlv of mau. Here was Jesus, tbo p?*r? foct man, the Hinl is* mau, whoso i career <rn *art?r:Ml^ ?.iirenc ol resplendent benefit -:r. s. in whom wan no fault. w.ii.?-r .very act was one of unselfish service to others, and yet those w!p in he had come to save a*:J whom he had served turned on him, false* ly accused - Him uud cruc ified Hint. Ta refer T rtlrlr? r-lite .tt the~ 'cross of Christ Is offensive to i man. He hates to be culled de praved and yet he stand* c >n demned by the cross of Christ. Likewise, the Christian, the fol lower of Christ beura a cross mid it too has its offensive side. The apor.tlea prayed for courage to bear the cross and to preaeh the gospel. What Ik i bar crosi and what is there about it that is of fensive and requires murage? First, the Christian is not ashamed of ths words of Christ and this is a cross. Be not de ceived, tho..?? of you who an* ashamed of Jesus words will not bear a cross, but thowe who stand and trstlfy to their belief in t&e words of Jesus will hoar a cross. If they preach tho words of Jos us they must preach that which shows up proud, haughty, arro gant man in his true light You go out from this tabernacle and tell one of the good, moral, char itable. liberal men that his lib erality is of no avail, that his mo rality, his goodness, his chari tableness is all In the fleah and Is already condemned und see If you don't offend him. You are* preach-' ing the "offense of the cross." Jesus offended proud old Xlcode muM because he told him that his. aristorrstlc^birth was of no value and thn' he^must he born again, itna <ame and did a^ay with ev*iy Ivp<; of sai-rifleo and ordi nance; he fulfilled every cove nant and by his act in dying on the cross made belief on Himself the sole method of salvation That I* where Jeans got In trouble with the Jews. They were still holding on to thHr ol(1 lype* and i ituals and sacrifices.and re fused to accept Christ as the ful fillment of them, and Christ taught that nothing they could do would avail exept that they be lleve on Him as their It'de mer and Messiah. Thnt was offensive to the Jew Paul preached that no man was good, that jI! nvere condemned and miserable ?? n ners. That wa-< offensive to hi' hearers and Paul suffered perse cution. Po'wlll you If you curry thla message to this old. blind world. The One Wa> of Saltation By th* cross Ood says to this world: I have sent My son In ful fillment of ?%'ery covenant and sacrifice, in atonement for every ?In of man From now on belief on Him and acceptance of his death on the Cross as the atone ment for every sin la the sole way of I/1fe and ssl?Mon. in other words. It la no lw..;er the "aln question," but tho "son ques tion " It Isn't a qoefltlon of hnw good you are- the heat of you are miserable sinners lost and damned If you do not believe on Christ unto salvation.

It contrauicm that which appears reasonable and right to the world and it will bring duwn the cen sure and ^ridicule of the worldly wise? I'aul went to Ath ens and Bpoke before the great philosophers of that great city "and Bald in cffoct "1 am deter mined not to tickle your ear.* with the vain philosophies of man. but I am speaking simply, In the lan guage of babes, that I might preach unto you Christ as the wisdom of God." In Roma he preached to that great throng of thirsters after power and wor-1 shippers of physical strength, but li< preached unto thPYh Christ as the power of Ood and strength In weakness. Many of our preach ers today are afraid to preach the words of Christ ibecause it will endangc.- th?lr standing as "schol ars." That is tho reason our re ligious conventions today will not sound tint against the rationalis tic tendencies which are sweep ing our churches away from God. Tli y aro afraid of the opinions of their college professors and so called scholars. Thoy Bnlff at the simple gospel preaching. It is not scholarly, it is not reason able; It Is foolish- It Is a cross to be called a fool by the schol arship of the world, but thfr Christian must bear It. Jenus didn't have the approval of the wise men and scholars of His day Neither did the disciples nor the apostles. "Where is your wis dom?" asked tho apostle." The world through wisdom didn't find out (Jod." The Pool Inline** of rrMwhlnK Then a?aln, any who preach grace instead of work* will bear a cross.

He not deceived. The preaching of the croas Is nn offense to man. This man said my statement sounded "foolish." Certainly It did. Qod paid it would. "The preaching of the gospel Is foolishness to them th" pe.rlih." Brother we may Jiiivo our degrees and stratas and -1 f society, 'but not so with Ood.
