DR. M’LAI’GHLIN SPEAKS ,1 (
AT BROTHERHOOD MEETING |
“A Man’s Job" Subject of Address De- \
livered in St. James Lutheran Church i
Here Last Night.
The men present on Wednesday eve-; (
niilg at the meeting of the Lutheran/
Brotherhood at St. .lames Lutheran ]
Church, received a sylendid treat in the i
address delivered by Rev. Chas. P. Mac-
Langhlin. I). D., of Atlanta, former pas-j
tor of St. .Tames Church in this city.
v Dr. MacT.aughlin took as his subject 1
“A Man’s Job," stressing the point that I \
the work of the ehurch_is primarily the i
work of the men, and not of the women, '
Jesus Christ, who founded the church,
was himself a man, and He chose as
his disciples none but men. When He j
wanted an apostle to the great heathen, i
Gentile world, he chose a real man, Saul i
of Tarsus, and all his big leaders in
the wprk of, his church have been men.
The greatest'job for a man, is in be
ing a real mall. .AH the familiar at
tributes of a real man- were familiar to
everyone, he declared, but there is one
thing without which no one is a real
man. . That is Christianity or religion,
declared the speaker. No matter how
great a reputation a man may have in
his community, without religion he is
not a real man.
The work of real mien is the extension
of Christ's kingdom, continued Dr. Mac r
Laughlin, and the call is issued kv Christ
I Himself when He says/‘Go ye into all the
world.” But before going, one'-should
tarty until he receives the spirit of pow
er. as did the apostles when they tarried
in Jerusalem for ten days before they
were endued with power. The way to
obtain this power is to ask for it, in
real, .strong, earnest prayer.
That the job will be sucessful is as
sured. if a man enters it in the right
spirit, for Christ himself has promised
: that He will be with those who go in the
| right spirit, for he says “Lo, I am with
you unto the consummation of the age."
The work is ip reality God's work, and
iHe is inviting ns to join in the work
\ with Him—to be a partner with God.
