AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY
^ DR. CURTIS LEE LAWS.
?
Theme: Backsliding.
^ Brooklyn, N. Y.?In tho Greene
Avenue Baptist Church, Sunday, the
L pastor, the r.ev. Dr. Curtis Lee Laws,
preached a strong sermon on "Backsliding.
" The text was from Proverbs
14:14: MThp ha?lr?HHop in hoorf I
< led with hla own ways."

B. 'i ecame more beautiful and
heart yearned over your
' enemies as never before?
on old man converted to
vn In Washington some
He was a rugged old fellow,
nis esthetic nature had not been
much cultivated, and he did not have
an artist's eye. The morring after
his conversion, when his wife came
down to breakfast, he was standing
at the dining room window looking
out at the desolate winter scenery.
He turned and said: "Wife, come
here and look, come here and look;
the very trees are clapping their
hands in praise to God!" Ah, in the
days gone by there has been many an
echo of those words in many a heart
U
uere.
To me after I found God, the whole
world was more beautiful; the sky
was bluer, the grass was greener, the
breezes were softer, the sun was
warmer and all mankind were dearer
to me.
What is the meaning of all this?
It means that I had found that which
was the complement of my whole being.
As Augustine said: "O Lord,
Thou hast made us for Thyself, and
we are restless till we rest in Thee."
It means that in God I had f jund the
satisfaction which this world had
never afTorded me, for as the ocean
only can fill the ocean's bed, so God
alone can satisfy the mind of man.
Blessed is the man who has been reconciled
to his heavenly Father, who
has returned like the prodigal to his
Father's love.
I turn now to the dark side of the
picture. How few of us have kept
this early joy, and have continued in
this blessed peace? Of course you
know the story of the lost chord? A
woman, in the shadows of the twilight,
when her heart was sad, gently
touched the keys of a glorious organ.
Bhe did not know or care what she
Was playing; her fingers lingered idly
but caressingly upon the keys. Suddenly
she struck a chord, and its v. ondrous
melody as it filled the room
was upuuing ana transforming and
Heavenly.
* It flooded the crimson twilight.
Like the close of an angel's psalm,
And it lay on her fevered spirit
With the touch of infinite calm.
It quieted pain and sorrow.
Like love overcoming strife:
It seemed the harmonious echo
From our discordant life.
It linked all perplexed meanings
Into one perfect peace.
And trembled away in silence,
As if it were loih to cease.
Something disturbed this woman
and called "ner from the organ. As
soon as possible she hurried back and
began to play, but this divine chord
was gone, and though she kept on
playing she could uot bring It back
again.
How similar to our experience as
the children of God and yet how opposite!
Many of us have lost our
peace, our joy, our rapture, but bless
God, we can all have this heavenly
music in our souls again, if we are
willing, for God Is willing to heal our
backsliding. Backsliding is so common
among Christians as to be almost
universal. Of course, there are different
degrees of backsliding. Some
have gone only a little way, while
others have gone so far that the return
will be difficult, but thank God,
not Impossible.
First of all, let us consider how
men become backsliders. The word
Itself Is significant. To go forward
requires effort, to go backward requires
no effort at all. In the Christian
life, if you cease to go forward
you will inevitably go backward.
This backsliding always begins in the
heart. We may go on for a time in
the outward performance of duty, in
the ceaseless round of Christian activities,
while in our hearts these
things are growing more and more
distasteful. The heart ma* therefore
be In wrong relation to a given thing,
while our actions may be perfectly exemplary.
B?t God knows that that
man Is a backslider, and he knows it
himself. Whether others know It
matters very little. But after a time
all men will know it, for the backslider
In heart generally becomes the
backslider In life. It is very hard for
nien to continue long in hypocrisy.
Ordinarily a man's outward life is the
expression of his inner life. A man's
character may be better than his reputation,
or a man's reputation may be
better than his character, but ordinarily
reputation and character agree.
. ill the uncouth and uncivil "dial.
. in the rough."
V i- constantly say of the man who
sl i /Ith his tongue, "Well, you
kr>< he is veryhastyand impetuous,
k an ' ten says things which he does
P r not. mean." But God says these
f ' things have their origin In the heart.
attrt . rom the heart flow outward.
W er> our conduct becomes bad. it is
bri 11 e we have already been backKliUv.
in our hearts. Then bad leads
to worse. Like Peter, we begin "to
10 now the Lord afar off," and this inevitably
leads to the uenlal of our
Master. You remember thai when
the Master was taken captive He was
Immediately forsaken by His apostles.
Then began the procession from Gethsemane
to the judgment hall. The
Master walked alone His weary way.
He trod the wine-press alone. The
shadow of the cross had already
fallen athwart His pathway. But
after a little while two of the apostles
summon up courage and follow the
company. One of these was John,
and be walked as close to Jesus as he
possibly could. But Peter did not
bets the courage to do that, so he
l^Ll J.
lagged behind, or, as the record says,
"he followed afar off." When the
company reached the judgment hall,
John went in with Jesus, but Peter,
straggling in late, dared not go there,
but with shamefacedness sat out in
the court and warmed himself by the (
Are. Step by step he had led to his
own undoing. The servants jeered
him and taunted him, until he grew
profane and blasphemous, and declared
that he never knew Jesus of |
Nazareth. Had he followed close to j
the Master, the presence of Jesus i
would have sustained and strength- I
ened him, in the companionship of
John he would have found courage,
and he would have been saved from
the influence of the evil company
which proved his ruin. Is not this
the proper diagnosis of many sin-sick
souls among us? Is not this the
exact history of your backsliding?
You began by sheer neglect. You did
not commit outward positive sins,
but you neglected the means of grace.
You were startled when you recognized
the growing indifference in your
heart. Bible reading became irksome,
and you no longer delighted in
private prayer. In the meantime
your devotion to business or pleasure
caused you to give up the prayer
meeting. Then you became irregular
on Sunday evenings, and gradually
you dropped out of all church attendance.
In the meantime you were
not sustained and cheered by the
conscious presence of your Lord nor
strengthened by the companionship of
your fellow Christians. Then you
drifted out among unbelievers, and
perhaps they have taunted you into
denying your Master in ways which
ten years ago you would not have |
dreamed of! Of course you did not
start out to make shipwreck of your
faith. You were hoodwinked by the
devil. Even a fool would shun the
first steps toward evil if he could
see the end from the beginning. In
our city there are tens of thousands
of men and women who have drifted
into sin and drifted out of the
church. My heart yearns over these
people, for they belong to God. They
have been redeemed by the blood of
God's Son. They ought to be eating
at their Father's table, but instead of
this they are spending their all in
riotous living, or it may be that the
devil has already put them to feeding
swine.
Now let us consider the result of
this backsliding. I do not mean the
influence of backsliding upon others,
though this is far-reaching and baneful,
but the curse of backsliding to
the backslider himself. My text says
that the "backslider in heart shall be
filled with his own ways." "Whatsoever
a man soweth that shall he
also reap." The law of the harvest
is a universal and unalterable law,
but a considerable time generally
elapses before a man eAts the bread
of his own sowing. I do not envy the
backslider. Ey experience I know
something of the bitterness of the
agony which he now suffers or which
the future holds in store for him.
Now let us consider God's attitude
to the backslider. He yearns over
His wayward and w.inHorinp phiidron
and longs for their return. The picture
of the father in the parable of
the prodigal son is the best description
of God in the whole Bible. And
is not the picture of the prodigal son
the best description of the backslider
that you know of? In the heart of
God there is an abundant welcome for
every returning backslider, and the
church of God ought not to be less
hospitable than the heart of God.
If again I may use the Apostle
Peter as an illustration, we may surely
learn from his restoration that
unworthy Christians may become
worthy Christians, that weak Christians
may become strong Christians,
and that our very failings may become
stepping stones to success.
After his experience, Peter was too
humble a man to praise himself; but
ali of us know that the Master took
him back to His heart and immediately
intrusted him with the interests
of His Kingdom. This weak and
halting and backsliding man was destined
to become the leader of the
apostles in devotion and suffering and
success. It thrills my heart to watch
the humble and chastened and restored
backslider. I am glad it was
Peter who preached the wonderful
sermon at. Pentecost, for it proves to
me that God can take the weakest of
us and make us strong and powerful,
if we will only give ourselves to Him.
I close with these words of invitation
from my Master. My first word
is to the Christians within the
church who have grown cold and
neglectful: Our Master is anxious to
forgive us and to have us start afresh.
Let us be done with indolence and
indifference, and serve the Lord with
joy and and enthusiasm. My second
word is to the Christians who have
fallen into sin and drifted out of ths
church: Your Lord stands with open
arms and pleads with you to come
back to Him, and the church wants
you back. If you will forsake your
sins, no one will remember them
against you. Come, and you shall
"%ave the gold ring and the best robe,
and we will kill the fatted calf in our
rejoicing, and in most of our churches
there will not be a single Pharisaical
elder brother to begrudge you the
welcome you are receiving.
My last word is to the men and
women who have never yielded their
hearts to the love of God, nor surrendered
their wills to the will of
God: The Father has a royal welcome
for you. It was for your sake
that God sent His Son into the world.
John 3:16 is the Master's message)
to you. If you do not remember
the beautiful words, hunt them up in
your long-neglected Bibles, and then
come, come, come.
Joyful Service.
Blessed is the Christian who workst
cheered by the sure hope of his Master's
final victory. He cares little
for the tears now, for he can look
forward to the hour when he shall
come to the harvest home, bringing
his sheaves with him. He bears easily
the noise and the wounding of the
battle, for he hears prophetically tht
music- of victory, and knows that he
follows a Captain who has nevei
known defeat, and that the joy of victory,
like the joy of harvest, shall
more than compensate for all life'i
weary toil and all earth's strife an/
conflict.

"HATS OFF IN CHURCH."
Abnormal Creations The Car.se of
The Present Movemont.
New York. Special.?"Hats off in
church" promises to be the cry to
women in the near future, and Rev.
Charles R. Jefferson, pastor of the
Broadway Tabernacle, has sounded
the first note of warning in a little
publication issued under church
auspices.
In this he says:
"The present bonnet or lint is abnormally
immense, and the discomfiture
of worshipers whose vision is
impeded is correspondingly irreat.
What to do with the women has been
a problem in churches throughout
the country.
"In theatrical and operatic circles
it is counted bad form for a woman
to sit with her hat on. It does not require
the gift of prophecy to say that
the time will eome when Christian
women in the church will he equally
considerate."
Dr. .Teffctson remarked that he
was prepared to join anv concerted
effort among clergymen which might
result in removing their hats in
church.?Baltimore Sun.
Whether the Biblical requirement
that a woman have "her head covered"
refers to her hair or her hat,
may be a question for tlie exeuete.
But on the size of the "covering"
any old layman may freely express
his opinion. If a woman's hat is so
big that it eclipses the preacher and
tlie whole front of the church, it is
time for a mere man to register a
kick. We are not quite ready to advocate
the excommunication of the
woman with the big bat. but our
minds are made up on the bat itself.
If some way is not found to reduce
the size of women's bats, the magazines
will soon have a new answer
to the question, "Why men do not go
to church."
If a woman must have a hat on at
church, why should she not have a
"church hat." that will admit of an
occasional glimpse of the pulpit at
least by the man or woman who sits
behind her? If her "street hat"
should cover all-out-of-doors, it would
be practically harmless, but she ought
to keep it out of doors. We believe
we speak for the suffering "brotherhood
of man," when we say that the
men stand ready to put up the
"dough" far an additional hat to be
known as the "church hat." The investment
will pay large dividends.
No More Smoke.
The Pennsyllvania Hail road has hegun
a campaign of education with its
enginemen and firemen. Any competent
fireman ' knows that bituminous
coal will burn without smoke if the
fire is kept bright and level over the
whole grate by the addition of small
quantities at regular intervals. By
this method less coal is needed to
keep up steam pressure. The foul
gases are burned, the passengers are
pleased, money is saved, and the company
can afford to develop intelligent
supervising officers in order to
reach the men. A spirit will thus be
fostered among employers that will
make the present improvement and
reckless firing seem almost criminal.
Of course, electric motive power,
were it not still in the costly experimental
stage, would at once dispose
of the smoke question. The electric
locomotives have not yet demonstrated
qualities of stability iu long-distance
transportation, and the freight
business must for some time to come
be handled by steam locomotives.
Meanwhile the present example of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, since it
will he observed by other rnilrond
and manufacturing companies, will
work mightily for the clarity of the
nation's skies.?New York Times.
Before marriage a man will go
through all sorts of contortions rather
than let his sweetheart stoop over
to pick up her own handkerchief;
after marriage he'll sit clamly in an
armchair and watch her move the
piano about the room.?Detroit Free
Press.
01CK DOCTOR
Proper Food Put Him Right.
The food experience of a physician
In his own case when worn and weak
from sickness and when needing
nourishment the worst way is valuable:
"An attack of grip, so severe It
came near making an end of me, left
my stomach in such condition I eould
not retain any ordinary food. I knew
of course that I must have food nourishment
or I could never recover.
"I began to take four teaspoonfuls
of Orape-Nuts and cream three times
a day and for 2 weeks this was almost
my only food; It tasted so delicious
that I enjoyed It immensely
and my stomach handled it perfectly
from the first mouthful. It was so
nourishing I was quickly built back
to normal health and strength.
"Grape-Nuts Is of great valuo as
food to sustain llfo during serious
attacks In which the stomach Is so deranged
It cannot digest and assimilate
other foods.
"I am convinced that were Grape
Nuts more widely used by physicians,
it would save many lives that are
otherwise lost from lack of nourishment."
Absolutely the most perfect food
in the world. Trial of Grape-Nats 10
days proves. "There's a Reason."
