EDWARD NILES. \ Subject: Godliness Id Form* Brooklyn, N. Y.?The Rev. Edward Mies preached at the White Church Sunday evening from II Timothy iii:5: 'Holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof." He said: That "distance lends enchantment to the view" is true of time as well as space. The older we grow, fhe more immaculate appear the imagined [lays of youth. Christian believers are purer in our eyes in proportion to the number of centuries that intervene. Within the covers of every volume of sermons, whether written in one age or another, are the well-nigh certain jeremiads over "these time of extreme worldliness, unequaled love of money, peculiar indifference to spiritual things." followed by laudations of the apostolic age as the golden era of Christianity. ' . A reconstruction of conditions existing in those New Testament churches from materials afforded us in the epistles,- warrant no such assumption. Heresies then were rampant, inconsistent lives numerous, backsliders distressingly frequent. The things of Bense maoe cogent appeal. The husks of the gospel often satisfied to the disregard of its kernel. Paul's description of "the last days" was based upon facts about him. As he penned the sentence of ou? text, he probably had in mind fellow communicants who held the form of godliness, but denied the power thereof. .Since then outward changes have been many, kingdoms have come and gone, languages have -.lied and been born, church order and ritual been metamorphosed. Human nature is unnffected by time or clime. So the New Testament is not n graveyard, with epitaphs of only antiquarian interest, but is photographic of contemporary - _ v bean tnroos. In our Borough of Brooklyn are 156.B79 people holding to tbe Protestant form of godliness. While statistics are unable to figure out how many hold to the Protestant power thereof, If form and power were identical, not Dne of the buildings where divine worship is being held to-night would have a vacant seat and every theatre and hall would be utilized for overflow meetings. Tbe original of "deny" has as its root meaning "not to seek." "Holding a form of godliness, they have not sought for its power." Tbe world has much to say about hypocrites. I believe the outcry against them is out af all proportion to their numbers, rhe conscious hypocrite to-day is a rare bird. I have made frequent hunts or him. Despite the most diligent search, I have'seldom found him. The number of those called hypo jrites, wtio wouia rignuy ne cutuiogircu is formalists, is legion. They are Dot striving to deceive others. They succeed in their strivir to deceive themselves. Satisfied w.ih fbe appurtenances. the trappings of godliness, they inquire no further. Attendants npon the services of the church, members of it. supporters of its outward activities, they fancy themselves to be ?odly. Branded as Christians, they but feebly apprehend what disrepute they bring upon the name by their inferiority to the real article. Their gullibility is 'wrongly taken for hypocrisy. They submit to?the drudgery sf religion to pacify troublesome consciences and impose upon themselves. An important reason for so many lapses froln church membership is because so many become dissatisfied with a form, yet fail to seek the reality, so ?ive up all. Almost every one in this congregation has n form of godliness. vYou look ?ood. 11 find little to criticise in what you do. for there is so little you do on svhich to base a criticism. The trouble lies in what you do not. You may 1 11 _ -3 - V? n?A rM'A/T! rrt\ o f TTA11V Q&ve CillJtfU LU^ UCJ1C IV JVU. spiritual food, to relieve you from first-hand study of the Bifcte, to represent your church not only in elassls but in the tenement, to be your proxy in heart to heart work for souls, your substitute when the battle is on between good and evil, while you go pour business and household ways during the week and on Sunday enjoy pour cushioned pews, criticise the sermon and singing. The Lord never called me to any like task. If there has been any such tacit agreement I now repudiate it. I am called of God to point out the forms of godliness as means of obtaining its power. . The imperative needs of our inventive age have almost bodily transferred to our language the Greek here rendered "power," in the word dynamo. I believe in forms, just as the railroad engineer believes in the third rail, as be believes in the elevated structure on the Williamsburg Bridge. But the mass of iron is a senseless eyesore until it is connected with the main line. Even then it is useless until. related to the power house, until the power, the flre-fed dynamo, sends forth the electric current, enaDiing tne cars xo 'arry thousands of wage-earners to and from their places of everyday toil. What private- concern would be so inane as to sink for two years such a wealth of money in an enterprise for accumulating rust? The forms of religion are essential as preliminaries to the accessories of power. Churches, ministers. Bibles ivere instituted and have been perpetuated because divinely ordained and tiumanly tested to be good for making the kingdom of heaven "go" upon ?arth. ' In themselves, they have no ralue. The power of godliness generated in Christian lives must electrify them or tJiey are encumbrances. You are commissioned to lead others Jo Christ. Your commission gives you 'power to act." Are you availing yourself of that privilege? 1 find no verse ;n the Scripture which reads "Be good and you will be a Christian." I find eiterated, over and over. "Do g?od." Christianity is not colorlessivess. It Qas no minus sign.. It is ever positive. A. negative being is peculiarly abhorrent to Him whose biography' is epitomized by "He went about doing ?ood." "I would thou wert either .'old or hot" is His message to such torpid professors. "Because thou art til.-on>nrni T will SnPW tllPP flllt nf My mouth." Bettor the mistakes, better even the sins that come l'rom activity than the flabby absence of either ,'ood or bad. True religion consists jot iii'outward observances, but in intfard graces; not in semblance, but in eality. Because Gjd is a living God, He has no satisfaction in half-alive saints. We must not only serve Him in this life; we must also live in His jervice. The are lamp unconnected ivith the dynamo is in the way. Your aresence in the church is in the way >f others, unless the dynamo of power within you is at work and your light s shining. k man may cry "Church! Chbrch!" at everv wora ' *\ With no more piety than other people, A daw's not reckoned a religious bird Because it keeps a-cawing from a steeple. Forms are by do means confined to liturgical churches. A printed prayer is less formal than one which differs in phraseology each time it is uttered, if the first come from the heart and the latter from the head. Some one thus confesses and questions and deduces: I often say my prayers. But do I ever pray? And do the wishes of my heart Go with the words I say? WorcLs without the heart The Lord will never hear. Nor will He to those lips attend Whose prayers are not sincere. Spiritual forces are all about us, pervasive as the subtle element we call electricity. The power of godliness is the concentration of this energy within ourselves, so as to make it radiant for good to others. We are in good form. We have taken Christ to be our Prophet and listen to His teachings. We recognize Him as our priest, accepting the atonement He offers. Is He our King Whom we obey, in Whose strength we go out to fight fearlessly? Because hypocrites exist is no reason why you should be a coward. Let us not hesitate to say what we mean. Let us determine to mean what we say. A form of godliness may speak words of sympathy to mourners, of warning to evil doers, of hope to afflicted ones. But the power is not there. It is "voice, voice; nothing more." Although ministering to the self-complacency of the speaker, it ministers to no one else. The form of godliness lacks substance. The flimsiness is revealed when its wearer needs sustaining pow*r. It is no rod and staff to comfort when the valley of the shadow of death is to be trod. It has no light to shed when a man comes to the forks of the road and knows not which way to take. It may fool him for a while here. Its hollowness is apparent otfhis first arrival in the world that knows no shams. The power of godliness is profitable, both for the life that now is and for that which is to come. Its possessor has "the tongue of the taught that he may sustain with words him that is weary," may "reprove, rebuke, exhort, correct." A man Is behind the voice and Christ, is behind , the man. In times of trouble, it supports unfailingly. When the iouse is darkened and the friends make their pitiful attempts to condole, they are anticipated*^ the God of all comforts. He whose form of godliness is validated bv its Dower, with unblanched cheek, with firm confidence, faces each crisis of life, the supreme crisis of death, knowing Whom he has believed, persuaded that He is able to keep what is committed to Him throughout eternity. A Clear Call. "It is very noble and lovely of you, Elsie, to give so much of your time to that work among the tenementhouse children. I'm sure I admire you for it; but for my part, I never had any call to that kind of work." "Any call?" Elsie's eyes were gravely questioning. "Yes, of course. I suppose you fell called to go into it, didn'i you?" "I don't know. I don't think I ever ^ ** in +Y\ n-t TTTOT7 J CATC lliuuglil ui jl juol ui uiu?i nuj vm ?? the nped of something I had time and strength to do?that was all. Bui wouldn't that be call enough?" Would it not Indeed? What plainer call can there be than a need that we can meet? What more eloquent appeal than the cry of the hungry little ones around us for bread that we can give? There are not many loud and startling "calls" to any form of service, but God ha9 unmistakable ways ol | making His will known to every one I whose own will is to know it. We have but to keep our ears open to hear His voice, our eyes to see His beckoning. Every opportunity is a call; every outstretched hand that ours can meet helpfully is God's beckoning hand to us." To most of us no other call will ever come than that which comes through human lips, no other than (the revealing of a vacant place which we may fill, a need for work which we can do, If we wait in idleness for some other vocation than comes to us ic these ways, we are but losing time, and the world is losing our service, Let us instead find in "the duty thai lies neareist" our present, definite call, sure that when we are wanted for another Work that too will be shown us. Opportunity?that i9 God's cleai nni) +n nr.?Youner PeoDle. Kegt In Christ. Coming to Christ, wa enter into the rest of faith. The very .act of trust brings tranquillity, even when the person or thing trusted in is human or creatura], and therefore uncertain, For to roll the responsibility from myself, as it were, upon another brings repose; and they who lean upon Christ's strong arm do not need to fear, though their own arm be very weak. The rest of faith, when we cease from having to take care of ourselves, when we can cast all the gnawing cares and anxieties that perturb us upon Him, when we can say, "Thou dost undertake for me, and I leave myself in Thy hands," is tranquillity depeer and more real than afcy other that the heart of man ?in conceive. "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusteth in Thee."Cast yourself upon Christ, and live in that atmosphere of calm confidence; and though the surface may be tossed by many a storm, the depths will be "peace subsisting at the heart of endless agitation."?Alexander Maclaren. We Are Not Orphans. We are living out these lives of ours too much apart from God. We toil on dismally, as if the making or the marring of our destinies rested wholly with ourselves. It is not so. We are not the lonely orphaned creatures we let ourselves suppose ourselves1 to be. The earth, rolling on its way through space, does not go unattended. The Maker and Controller of it is with it, and around upon it. He is with us here and now. He knows us infinitely more thoroughly than we know ourselves. He loves us better than we have ever darod to believe could be possible.?William R. Huntington. ~~~ , Pleaiare and Pain.' *** "?1 - Viae Whatever auorus us iiieuomc i<?upower to give us pain.
