Thoughts on the Controversial Era.
The religious controversies of the day
testify to the statement that we are
living in the grandest hour of advanced
advancing civilization. It is our inher
itance to enjoy the possession ot the
glorious eivdenoes of twenty oenturies
of human development and human
achievement.
Controversies in all ages soientifio,
governmental, commercial, social and
religious are the outgrowth of man's
inquisitive nature. Dr. Talmage says
the present religious controversy is
aitanio. The result of wickedness !
It is my humble conviction that it is
better to think for self than let some
body else do the thinking. Man ought
to look at the lights of this era of analy
tic thought and though given the right
to think for himself had better take
care how he thinks 1
On almost every page of history you
read of minds masterful, as well as
humble, burning with intensity and
doubt regarding things visible and
invisible. The human mind has ever
sought to know something of invisible
things; to find out the factors neceisary
to solve the eternal problem of success
and happiness in life. Such desires are
plausible. They have a rightful claim
upon the nobleBt energies of mankind.
If there was no solution to these ques
tions then life might be termed a farce
and delusion. Christianity is the an
swer. It comprehends the whole of
human nature and the ultimate destiny
of the human race. Without the GoBpel
of Christ I had rather never been born !
The universe and mankind's immor
tality would seem like a tremendous
snare. Keview the past struggles and
sufferings and despair of humanity.
Speculation and the uncertainty of
hope demand an acceptance of the re
cords of Genesia or plunge ua into a
bottomless abyss of unsatisfactory
existanoe.
God oan do more
Than man oan understand.
God will allow a holy and a humble
search into the truth,
searching spirit over ready to be
taught."
The acceptance of tho theory of the
creation ia no enslavement of man's
free-will. Suppose man had not been
given a free-will what would be our
condition r 1 answer: a mere human
machine a mysterious composition of
something and nothing unqualified to
put on immortality and be olothed with
an incorruptible livery. The doctrines
of the Nazarene oarpenter concern
man. They have vitalized the con
science of humanity and inspired hope
in multitudinous hearts. The syetem
of morale of the Galilean peasant mUat
ever oontinue to reconstruct the world,
Life ia poisoned with suspicion and sen
sationalism. We ought to hate sensa-
tional preaching and teaching ! No
brilliant phiiosopheio speculations will
ever reconstruct the laws of Sinai. No
new interpretations of biblical theology
or church-creeds will overthrow the
faith of souls whe believe that tie
llteraiist destroys the internal beauties
of the Scriptures and that beoauae
ohuroh-creeds are human institutions
they are liable to error. Is it probable
that there is any divine inspiration
about them ? What is a church creed ?
It is the written expression of the oon'
struotion of the Scriptures by a certain
number of people as viewed through
the medium of personal experience and
intellectual enlightenment. Church
oreeds can't save souls I They are con
aervatora. Freedom of being (apart
from dependence upon Uod) laargu
ment sufficient that man can go to hell
or hope for heaven. Salvation is surely
matter of self-interest f God has
decreed the plan. There ia no higher
power no appellate court. Right
thinking, right feeling, right doing ia
the beat theology of earth. Man knows
the right and, I believe, man loves the
right. "We have left undone those
things whioh we ought to have done
and we have done those things which
weo lugnt not to nave done. "
There is a difference between person'
al religion and creed religion. It is
evident that men are born and reared
to a ohurch religion, so also they formu
late and cultivate personal religion as
they understand Theism and Christian
ity. The former is a collocation of facts
embraced in the experience of every
day life, while the latter is an inherit
ance or the result of ciroumstance
Conscience voices man's principles- How
many people understand the essential
doctrines of their church-creed? "My
cburon is rie ciurci, says some one.
because I have been reared with suoh
a belief."
Study the indifference of the times
and one oan see the greatness of the
subjsot of religion. All people in every
age and in every dime have had some
kind of a religion. The heathen re
ligions are conceptions of man's own
wants. Religion has ever exeroised
the human soul. The Christian religion
is the greatest subject that occupies the
attention of the world the heart of
shipwrecked character and the search'
lag intellect of soholars. Scholarship
and new understanding of things will
never reverse the laws of right and
equity whioh the human conscience
pronounces. There are certain land'
marks of truth from which man cannot
depart. The fiat of conscience condemns
men and not the transcendent truths of
divine revelation.
Take all the oreeds and all the per'
sonal religions and all speculations
about biblioal interpretation and you
reaoh a conclusion something like this
There is a great First Cause omnia
oient, omnipotent, and merciful and
that beoause man is a sinqer he needs a
mediator.
Dr. Brigga new understanding of
the Soriptures and Professor Totten's
Millenium Theory undermine the re'
ligious thought of some people. These
msn are open erratio teachers. Think of
man pretending co-equality with God
by theorizing respecting an event of
which no man knoweth I Here is a
nutshell: Fear God, do .right, and
hope. Ia fearing let us believe that
God knows mora than we do. Poor
man who dares characterize the merov
of hit Creator I It ia a common ex
perience that oonduot and speech today
affect the happiness ahd prosperity of
tomorrow or work the righteousness of
God. I had rather hope in a character
that ia above every other character than
not hope at all. Pity the soul without
a hope! Jon Siahly Thomas.
