" THE G-EEAT BUILDER AN INVISIBLE CHRIST IS STILL BUILDING HIS CHURCH. Sermon by Rev. Dr. A. C. Dixon, of Brooklyn, N. Y. A Continuation of a Theme of Glowing Interest How Christ Completes the Whole Temple. Text: "The Lord added to them day by day those that were being saved," Acts 2: 47. In the sermon last Sunday morning we learned that the invisible Christ Is building His Church through in spired men and women preaching the Inspired word, by revealing Himself In His humanity, His suffering on the cross, His resurrection and exaltation. . "We continue the same subject this morning by saying that the invisible Christ is still building His church with regenerate material. Every stone is a living stone, and the whole temple is a spiritual house. There are three expressions in this second chapter of the Acts which define salvation. The first is: repentance. When the people ask, "What shall we do?" the ringing reply was, "Repent." And when men have turned from sin unto the Saviour they are saved for both worlds. The second- definition is separation, as seen in the words, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation." Salva tion is not adaptation to. the spirit of the times, but " separation unto God from the crookedness of the times. It Is not drifting with the "current, but stemming the current Like the kite, the church rises against the wind of earthly sentiments. - The third . definition of salvation Is foun in the words, "They that glad ly receive His word were baptized." They had first received the word with sorrow; they . were pierced in the heart; the Spirit convicted them of sin; conscience lashed; tears of peni tence fell. And there must be this re- - ception. of the word with sorrow be fore there can be the reception with joy. Sinai with its clouds and thun derbolts comes before Calvary with its whispering of love, and the man who does not pass by Sinai with sorrow will not come to Cavalry with joy. It is upon this black cloud of conviction from which tears of penitence fall that God throws the bow of promise. Sinai shoots arrows into the soul; Calvary with gentle hand plucks them out and heals the wound. Sinai reveals our moral and spiritual sickness; Calvary heals the disease. ., Sinais the dark ness tha? covers our sky; Calvary Xs tne star that shines through the darkness and giv?; us"h6be: The piercing of the soul diseased with sin is the surgical operation which the Great Physician uses' to prepare it for the healing. balm. After the word.of truth has been received with 'sorrow of conviction, the word of salvation will be received with joy. ' And this is the kind of conversion that lasts. A conversion based upon . the emotion of a moment wilt.soon fade away, but the soul that has re ceived the word of God has a sph'ere u wui vii to worn ana an atmospnere in which to work in safety A philoso x j?her in Japan has built a house which he says is microbe-proof. All the air that ehtei'3 it is sterilized: the walls - of the house are made of glass, so that every part of it is filled by the sunlight. and microbes cannot live in the sun light There is now a sort of microbe craze.' Little communion cups have been invented to protect us from mi crobes in the cup, and the time may not be far distant when we shall have ' -micrbbe-proot churches, each family having its own little stall so arranged , that it can hreath its own fresh air. -'There is doubtless some reason for this microbe If ear, for the little death dealing animals float in liquid and in r air. But We need-4x "be more careful ' about .xthe microbes of sin which fill " the moral atmosphere about us. And . if we live: la an atmosphere of. truth and light we-heed hot fear them; we ,aie then; more than a match hot only . for microbes but for the devil himself.

Such a searchlight is the word of God.: vJ3atan himself will be revealed in his ap proaches, and he cannot -attack: us in the blaze of the light of truth. '. Note the use of the "word "soul" in this chapter. "Three thousand - souls were added." God counts souls. -Managers of industries sometimes speak of so many "hands" in their factories; the individual for them is a head for thinking and planning. But God es teems the soul with its infinite cap ac-J ity for development and withering; for happiness and sorrow. The gymna sium can develop a-body i the univers ity can give you a head; and some-: times a big head, but it takes Jesus Christ to make a soul what it' ought to "be. . I saw on the streets of New York the other day a man on all fours. He had lost his feet and was walking up on his hands and knees. 1 noticed that he had gloves of leather with soles like shoes. At a distance he looked like a beast, but . on nearer ap proach I noticed that he had articles for sale and, as I purchasedone form him, I looked into a face that really charmed me. His eyes were bright; his features were manly and clean, and I said to myself, here is a body on all fours with a soul erect. He has suffered a great misfortune in losing his feet, and he reminds you of the beast as he walks, but it is evident that the beast has been eliminated, from his soul. It is better to be like the beast in body and to be erect in soul, than to be erect in body with soul on all fours. Again the Invisible Christ Is still building his Church by means of the continual unity of the disciples. There are three, words which express this unity: they were "all together," "of one accord," anf had "a singleness of heart." It does not mean that they all lived in ' the same apartments, though they were much of the time together in the same assembly.' It does not mean that there were no dif ferences of opinion on many subjects. Every individual of them was in many respects different from every other in dividual, but in their loyalty to Christ they were one. On the day of the t- , 7 v 'v""Ior( Vrth V ft crowd and'felt a llttfiTsorry for those who shivered in their seats apart from the people. I love folks, all kinds of folks. When in Europe, I spent more time looking at people than at pic tures, or statuary, or cathedrals. After all, it is more to be a man than I a hero. It is more to be Dewey than to be conqueror at Manila. The vic tory is simply an appendix to the volume of manhood that was there before the victory. The crowd about me was of all nationalities, sexes and colors, but, whether they spoke Ger man, French, Italian, or Dutch, I could recognize the word Dewey. They were together, of one accord, of single ness of heart in their estimation of that magic name. And so, as we mingle with the multitude of real Christians, We see differences in lan guages in occupations, in views of Church polity, in a hundred things re lating to the externals, but they are one in their love and loyalty to Christ. The Invisible Christ continued also to build his Church by means of power. "Many wonders and signs were done by the Apostles." Not by their influence, for they were a dis pised sect. Not by their education, their money, their , social position, or their eloquence, but . by the power of the Holy Spirit. Wonders did not cease with Pentecost, but continued every day. Some of us "look back to the great revivals of the past. The old men talk of 1837. Our Methodist brethren speak with gratitude of the times of Wesley and Whitfield, and ! with some I fear power is in the past tense. Pentecost was but is not. The showers of refreshing came once, but the skies have been brass ever since. They try to slake their thirst with the water that fell then, but it has lost its freshness. If we have the same gos pel and the same God, why not have the same power to-day as then? Dewey at Manila did not conquer in his own strength. . There were doubt less men among the. Spaniards as strong physically and intellectually as he but the resources of the United! States were at Dewey's side, and he i was linked with them. All the science of war and the wealth of the nation were concentrated in the make of his warships and their grins; he simply turned the power of the United States upon the Spanish fleet and demolished it. Now we are not left to go to war at our own charges nor do we depend upon our own resources. The re - J sources of heaven are at the disposal of our faith. We conquer because we link ourselves with Omnipotence and turn all the guns of heaven's artillery upon, the enemy. For Dewey to have separated himself from the United States Government and fought Spain in his own strength would have been to court shameful defeat, and for ds to have separated ourselves by unbe lief or disobedience from God, and fight life's battle In our own strength, is to be more shamefully defeated. In the strength of God Almighty, let us march to every battle and victory will be ours. We are told that fear came upon every sOul. Upon the' unbeliever, it was the fear that. weakens; upon the believer, it waa the fear that strength ens. The mam who fears God -with the consciousness that he is against God Is a weakling; the man who fears God with the consciousness that God is on his side is a giant. The wicked trem bled as they feared;, the righteous ex ulted as they feared. . May such a fear of God come Upon us that we shall walk softly, speaking in whispers and looking up reverently, into His face. It was fear that moved Noah to build the ark, the fear born of faith In the threatenings as. well as the -promises of God . The man who fears God Je- .

In the next place, the invisible Christ is still building His church by means of the liberality of His disci ples. "They had all things common, and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all as every man had need." The clause, "as every man had need," modifies "sold" as' well as "parted." They sold their pos sessions and parted them as every man had need; that is to say, they did not sell all their possessions at at once, or part with their price at once but, as the need arose, they sold their possessions and wisely distrib uted the proceeds. In the word "pos sessions" and "goods" there are the ideas of real estate and movable prop erty. Their lands- were not considered too sacred to sell, in order that the emergency might be met. Many of these young converts were away from home and needed support while they remained to be instructed. Many of tyem, doubtless, lost their po sitions as servants and salesmen as soon as they confessed Christ, and were thrown upon the church for tem porary support. The Church was at that time the only insurance society. There is nothing in the records that implies there was an equal division of property. The socialist anarchist finds no comfort here. Their motto is, "All thine is mine." The motto of those, early Christians was "All mine is thine," and between these two mot toes there is the distance between grasping selfishness and loving sacri fice. It is certain therewa no aban donment of property jrights cor we find afterwards that the 'disciples owned property. In the 4th chapter of the Acts we are told that, some of them sold lands, which grere evidently not sold at this time. Ananias and Sa phira owned property, and Peter In sisted that they jwned the money even after the pros 2rty was sold and could do with it as hey pleased. Their sin was in lying about it. In the 12th chapter of the Actj we see that the mother of, John Mjk owned ahouse ! in which a prayer jieeting was held, and the disciples, e very man accord ing to his ability, dstermined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judea. These vords proved that there was a differea.ee in ability, be cause there was a difference in wealth. They were commanded to Jay aside on the first day of the week as God had prospered thew, and in another place they are exhorted to labor that they may have to gsve unto those that need. The loud-mouthe demagogues who clamor for the equal division of prop erty, have no suppyt for their claim In this record.
