Bishop John C Kilgo, assisted by
Presiding Elder P.T. Durham, has
been conducting a wonderful revival of
religion in Charlotte, at Trinity Meth
odist church, for the past three weeks.
The following report "of his sermon
last Monday night is' taken from the
Charlotte Observer:

DR. J. D. M'MILLAN & SON
there shall be no flesh justified; for
by the law is knowledge of sin;'
"But now the righteousness of God
without the law is manifested, being
witnessed by the law and prophets;
"Even the righteousness of God,
which is by faith of Jesus Christ,
unto all and upon all them that be
lieve: for there is no difference."
There is something awfully wrong
in this world said Bishop Kilgo. . A
man -does not need any great amount
of knowledge or any special training
to know that this world is in a dread
ful condition, that it is. full -of grief,
heartaches, crimes, wickedness, collis
ions from every source and of every
kind, and that no one is escap
ing it. The little baby in the cradle
is assaulted by disease and is swept
out of its mother's arms into the
tomb. The strong man is swept out
by his passion for drink, or lusts or
appetites of other kinds, and the
downfall of one man spreads on and
out by widening circles and shocks
the whole social system. . The terrible
disarrangement of things was never
so sensibly recognized as now. You
can't pick up a paper without seeting
evidences of it. You can't attend a
political speaking without being told
that things -are out of fix the cur
rency, taxation, the tariff."" You can't
go into a college classroom without
ration. Law will never make any
great people. You can't construct
them on the basis of legislation."
There has been an effort to make
religion a legalism. . It started out
that way, but in spite of the mandates
given to Moses the people continue to
sin and the system degenerated into
a Pharasaism and bigotry that wreck
ed that peoples -... .
Decency No Defense,
"A lot of people are expecting to
be saved because of their -decency. I
wish I could get this age to realize
that decency doesn't go in God's
court. -There are many people . who
believe that God won't have the heart
to send them to perdition with all
the talcum powder on their faces and
all of the sweet smelling stuff they
bring out of their wardrobes.' I wan't

The Real Trouble.
What's the secret of it? What's
the origin of it?. What's the matter
with God's world? There's nothing
the matter with its resources. There's
nothing the matter with its processes.
There's nothing the matter with God's
world except the awful clash of men
with God, and it is worse than the
dashing of world's together. There
is nothing on God's earth that is not
doing His way except men. There
is not a rock that does not stay where
God put it. There Is not a wave
that doesn't stop where God tells it
to stop. But, when you strike man
you strike trouble; you hear the
groans of agony, we see the flashes
of temper, we see the storms of pas
sions, the mighty rush of unsatisfied
if it is a problem
I think it is more of a dreadful re.
suit. You can philophize about it. You
can't write poetry about what a beau
tiful world this is. You can go and
paint flowers and then go and walk
down the street. In the wealthiest
places you will find more jealousy,
more blacksliding, more, downright
meanness in the souls of men than
anywhere else.
l.aw and Grace.
Various means have been tried said
Bishop Kilgobut in reality there are
only two propositions that have ever
been set up against this situation. One
is to redeem it by the law a process
of legalization. The other is to redeem
it by atonement that is by grace.
Everything that has been done,
or attempted or even thought of
groups itself under one or the other
of these heads. Paul says you can't
settle it by laws for "by the deeds of
the law there shall no flesh be
justified.
Some have tried to use the process
of education. A college president not
long ago spoke one the subject, "Edu
cation, the Cure for Poverty, Discon
tent and Sin." "Culture has never
handled sin," declared Bishop Kilgo.
Others have tried to conduct a sys
tem of morality and have invoked the
moral law. This is another from of
legalism. Trying to lead a moral life
as a solution of this situation is not
worth a frizzle. It may improve your
business efficiency and help your
standing in the community, but that
is all. .
We are now in the midst of a uni
que period of legalism, said the speak
er when it is sought to remedy every
ill by law "I would not be a Con
gressman or anything for I would
never get a vacation. I am glad I
didn't go to school to President Wil
son for he would never have had a
recess." Former laws were made to
prevent murder and thievry, but now
we have laws directed at millionaires,
for bankers, for "women, for children.
We have laws to protect health, we
have laws to protect beauty, we have
laws to protect nearly everything. We
are building a 'wall of law across
God's earth to dam back the awful
current of sin and death. .What is
the result? We have more laws piled
up on our statute books and are send
ing some more people to the peniten
tiary. . We have so many laws on so
many subjects that I suspect that
are all criminals and that if we sent
everybody to the penitentiary that
violates them, I don't know who would
stay at home, to make bread for the
bunch. We are wading n law a mile
deep, it looks like, and are we get
ting any better?
"Law will never perfect anyivili-
iudgements of God.'
The. function of the law, said the
bishop, is to reveal sin, to make it
clear. The law is discovering the
evils of this age but it is not curing
it. 'And it can't cure it and had not
ought to be expected to. cure it. .
