Cheatliam' Cnritma Bi courMft Ural Wltli it Universality ALL Pinehurst turned out for Christmas ser vices iu the Chapel; the subject of Kev. T. A. Cheatham's discourse "The Universality of the Christian rivilege,, and the text St.Luke II, 10: "Behold I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to aU people."' He said in part; "We are told that a mile out of Bethle hem,on the road going toward Jerusalem, may still be seen the ruins of the walls of the Chapel of Herald Angel. It was built in the very field and on the tradi tional site, where so long ago on the most memorable night in the history of the world "there were shepherds abiding in the fields keeping watch over their flocks." God had spoken to men before, f'at sundry times and in diverse manners He had spoken unto the fathers by the prophets." He had not only given man a religious instinct, "a restlessness that could only find rest in Him" as St. Au gustine put it, but He had chosen a people through whom after long centu ries of teaching and training He could reveal Himself to man ; (and one of the most interesting studies upon which we could engage would be to follow the de velopment of that people,) then in the "fullness of time" the Son of God came, someone has called it "the Supreme mo ment of divine opportunity and of hu man need." When He came there were three na tions whose influence determine the world's life, they were the Hebrews, the Romans and the Greeks. Each of these nations stood ready with its special con tribution to the futherance of the gos pel. The Hebrews were in the midst of expectations, looking for the coming of the Messiah. The Romans had made intercourse possible by their great roads and won derful organization so that a cosmopoli tan spirit was possible. The world was more ready than it had ever been before for the preaching of a religion that was intended, not for a tribe, not for a pro vince, not even for an empire, but for the universal world. Then there was a language in which the missionaries of the new gospel could speak their message and be generally understood. Educated people were ac quainted with Greek and it was a lan guage peculiarly fitted for the expres sion of the most delicate differences of thought. In this way was the world prepared for the most stupendous mes sage it had ever received. 31 in had longed for God, he had been si eking and groping and One was to come who was to reveal God to man. This revelation could only be made by a God-man. If we cut out the deity from Jesus Christ If we cut out Hi humanity of toil and tears and tenderness and s nipatliy for human pain mid loss we take aw.ty his kinship wii h u. God Is now no longer an a dread ful Being to frighten us, but lb; i our Tather, men have sen Mid haiidhd tid given themelv( s to His Sou in human form and so God has become a reality. Today we t ome to 'ejniee in that life, to rejoice in the power of a living Clnit. Frequently weliavea dead Chrit preach ed to us lo the exclusion of His birth and life and ascension. lathe scheme the Incarnation is only made necessary by the Atonement and the Atonement called for 1 y t lie fall. Without diminishing aught from ih doctrine of the Atonement we believe that the Incarnation was a part of the eternal plan. 3Ian could never know God until lie saw God in human, form, our thoughts about Him irust be subjpct to human limitations certainly Jet-us Christ came lo die for us but He primar ily came to live for us and to Fhow us how to live, death reignfd only three short days and nights the rest was all life, a lite of three and thirty years on earth and a life of ages upon ages in the glory which the Christ had with the Father before the worlds were. That hrist is a living, active person ality in the world today, His teaching is recognized, His power is felt-, His princi ples are exemplified, His life is lived. He js the factor in the world's test life. I'cnn say without fear of contradiction that He is the moving power in the world's moral and spiritual elevation. The living'Christ takes hold of these sordid, frivolous, careless lives of curs and makes them strong and unselfish and noble. We catch his spirit when we build hospitals and reformatories, when weministor to the rcor and sick and sad, when we get out of ourselves and our own interests and try to raise the world to purer living and higher think ing. We come today to do honor to the be ginuing of this life of God in our world, we want to rejoice together in the biith of Christ, we want to visit Bethlehem with the shepherds and gaze with them in adoration at the blessed Christ child and try to understand more fully the meaning of his birth and its message to the world, not only to view that birth in the sweet simplicity of infant innocence but also to view it with the added ad vantage of living so long after and un derstanding more of its richness and meaning from having seen its power worked out in countless lives. ' Alter all these years of Christian light and privilege we can surely feel the truth of the Angelic message. "Glory to God in the highest and on Earth peace, good will to men." On Christmas day Jesus Christ was bom, what for? Why did He come? He came that He might live our life and show us how to live. He came also t w we take Him down from His high pedes- j lje miSt manifest the Eternal God, so W. D. Ntisbit in Chicago Post, tal of homage and adoration.
