A SERMON FOR SUNDAY AN ELOQUENT DISCCURSE ENTITLED "DOES COD CARE?" The T!ev. Uohert MacDonald Declares That the Greatest Discovery of the Twentieth Century "Will Be the Discovery of God. Brooklyn; N. Y. ? "Does God Care?" was the subject of the sermon Sunday morning by the Rev. Robert MacDonald, past?r of the Washington Avenue Baptist Ciiurrh. He took his text from I. Peter v:7: "Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for you.'' Mr. MacDonald said: "The greatest discovery of the twentieth century will be the discovery of God, and then it will be seen that God does not care." Such is the latest assumption of science, if a certain learned professor of one of our largest universities is deemed a trustworthy interpreter. He wisely drew the line between Christianity and infidelity as between believing that God cared for us and that He did not care, find stated that the leading scientists were infidels. Lest such statements upset or weaken the faith of some of us, let us see what the weight of probability is for the realizing of tliese presumptive prophecies. Let it at the very start be remembered that any more definite scientific discovery of God than we now have is unlikely. And this is said, not because we now possess so much, but that we are possessed of so little. Science will doubtless discover more about God. Shan\e upon our developing intelligence if it docs not. Every discovery is that. But that is a verv different thing from discovery of God. His handiwork will be more clearly traced, the working of His purposes more definitely * -L 4. iL. T~_ I realized; but i. tninic we can irusi. mc .infinite One to as successfully outwit the scientific inquisitiveness of the twentieth century as of any that has soul. I am confident that 1900 years hence the exclamation of the human mind will be about as it is now?''Who can by searching out find God!" One of infinite retreats is not going to be taken by surprise. The secret of His presence will ever elude the discoveries of man. The mystery of His person shall still remain inviolate. Why do I speak as though God were antagonistic to human discovery? Because, friends, this learned prophet whose statements we are considering sees the only lack to the discovery of God to be the present incompleteness of human knowledge and the present paucity of scientific means, both 01 which will be remedied, he is sure, before the present century closes. I speak as I do because I do not like to have Him whom we honor as Creator and Father stripped of His mystery and robbed of His volitional power and referred to as you would to an impersonal, objective fact, of creation. We discover stars and continents and seas and laws and a good many other things, but it does seem to me that God Himself will have something to say about the discovery of Himself. Moreover, I have no right to believe that God will ever be discovered by any man save by Him whom God has discovered. He only finds God whom God has found. I am striving to_ maintain the integrity of the divine revelation as over againsc mat of human investigation. We must take God ou His own terms, rather than on ours. Therefore, he only discovers God to whom God has revealed Himself, to whom God permits such discovery. We need nut fear that any future discovery of God will negative the revelation we now have through Jesus Christ. Science is mighty, but not almighty. Not mbre mighty than God. We welcome it in the realm of well defined data, in the realm of demonstration and proof. But its advocates need to learn that the Eternal transcends its scrutiny and the Supernatural bends not to its demands. Reassure your heart that if you are sp fortunate as to be a habitant of the realm bounded by the Christian religion the essence of your faith cannot be harmed. Faith's form, as also the form of revelation, will be scientifically questioned and repaired. Faith's content examined and modified perchance, but its essence, that spiritual thing we call the divine grace, that precious consciousness of His care for you, and that you are living in the light of His face is too sacred to ever bend to scientific formula, and too mystical to be expressed in the cold accuracy of scientific terms. We are told that when this improbable, to our thinking impossible, discovery occurs it will be found that God does not care. All present evidences of His care are ignored. Facts, upon which are stamped indelibly God's kindly imprint, are swept aside, facts as stubborn as the immovability of the mountains, and the existence ot the ocean ana ine snining iof the Bun. There is, for instance, that stubborn thing called conscience to be dealt with. That stands out as a very Gibraltar of protest against the assertion that God does not care. In all the history of mortals conscience has been regarded as God's handwriting on the wall, telling man he must do the right and must not do the wrong. True, it does not tell him what is right and what is wrong. That is a thing of fluctuating standard. Always difference of opinion about that, because dependent upon the man's intelligence that owns the conscience. And any certain type of intelligence depends upon the age and civilization in which he lives, circumstances, moral and religious ideals. Thus it is that the truest standard for the enlightenment of conscience is Christianity. .Christian ethics, springing from the Sermon on the Mount, is universally recognized man's truest and highest standard of enlightenment. But on what higher authority rests this sense of "oughtness^' as to the doing of right and wrong? God demands it, we say. The Creator has a right to impose terras upon Hi6 creation. We recognine our obligation to Him. Yes, but because tne moral sense rests upon an intuition oj God's perfect morality. We could not feel any obligation to God unless we felt Him worthy of that obligation. We believe Him to embody the ideal and perfect morality. His sense of obligation to us, then, is the sanction of our sense of obligation to 1 Him. It is precious to read that "we love Him because He first loved us." It is as true that we are under obligation to Him because He is under obligation to us. We never speak of it that way. We seldom, if ever, tnink of it that way. The more expressive side of the divine nature c?cupies our thought. God is so pleased to do for us, His blessings are so much more truly the manifestation of His love than of any other characteristic. But the divine rationality expresses itsei" in justice and I morality as truly as in love. We are con1 ecious ever of our demerit, insignificance, dependence, see all divine favor to be an [ emanation of His love. The Creator must make provision for His created. The necessity of His own nature demands it. The I divine Father, as well as the human father, i must support His child. Conscience in us I is evidence of God's care. And it is evi| dence that can never be explained away, j So long as humanity endures conscience I will advocate right and denounce wron", i and just so long must man believe in God's 1 care. Does Cod care? Our very constituj tion thunders Yes. No valid discovery oi ! God in the future can be expected to overthrow the_ overwhelming weight of this evidence. Verily, God hath not left Himself without a witness. We need not fear any future discovery, however supposedly sciena :_ a _ ili. i : j ~ nut, iu uu#t?u mis consuuiuunui enumc. | Wliatever the evidence that God does not I care we will match and outweigh it by this i nearer, dearer, stronger evidence that He i does care. We have a Roland for their Oliver. Then there are man's religious instincts to be accounted fops> These are not acquired. Neither civilization nor Christianity begot them. We are not arguing within a circle in referring to these. All races, white, yellow, red, brown, black, igj norant or enlightened, superstitious or sane, cruel or kind, instinctively feel that God cares. Mind you, it is not that He is propiti<i#s unto thein. Oftener that He is not. But the very fact of inventing all conceivable means to placate Him. some of them barbarous and revolting, indicates so strongly that it almost proves God's interest in mortals. ]t is an evidence so universal that it cannot easily be explained away. Every fundamental need in humanity Las its satisfaction existing somewhere. Hunger presupposes food. Tiiirs.t indicates the existence of water iov , / - ' ?? its quenching. Nakedness instincti' leads to the necessary coverings for protection, even though beasts are s! cotton, flax and wool grown to accom date it. So with all the hirers of rati' being, social, intellectual,floral. religi They all are evidence of reality sc where answering to them. None of t is more fundamental and imperative t the religious, that which demands G care. A most paihetic manifesting of lonping is idol worship. The neat God's ignorant children, like ours, dem nhipr-f. ipssnns thai ran .ie annrehendpc the senses. To make God in their in is the nearest they can get to the sub consciousness that they are made in Better, it seems to us, no God tha wooden one. A spirit of negation anc diTerence would save them so much less sacrifice and cruel practices and barous acts of superstition by way of posed atonement. But whether bette worse atheism is not a constituent ch< teristic of man. Strange, is it net, thi is never innate, but always an acqu.rec complishment, always the sad resul culture else of sin. By nature, and means by right, God is always the rigl occupant of the throne. But as our importance grows, as we become sciousiy great in thought and, achiever we become al.u great in arrogance, ? all science falsely so called, and the ] is asked to vacate the throne, and Gc not even bowed out of the universe, heartlessly banished. Oh. no, denial is better than affirmation of God. how superstitiously that affirmation exprei self. It is evidence of God's care e needed to offset a threatened evidence lie has not interest m tne numun i-ice Notice the two possible results to w these religious instincts lead. They the receptacle into which Christianity Without them the Gospel of Jesus ha appeal. They cry out for God. C [ tianity introduces God to them. ' want an assurance of God's care. C tianity assures them God cares for me the uttermost, even enough to die them. Creation thus prepares for re tion, and welcomes its beneficent apprt There is another result that shows helpfulness of the religious instinct un sal among men. It is the sorrow that sesses us when we are told it is all a i sion. The moment you convince man t is no God, or. if there is, that He is i ferent to man's welfare, that moment face loses its complacency, the heart it surance, the spirit its buoyancy, the i its sense of satisfaction. Doubt, d pointment, despair set in. Little to for, nothing to die for is the cry that not be comforted. A stolid indiffer results that crushes out the heart's m else wild despair that dethrones re and inflicts self injury. Let me ma prophecy more dismal in its outiook that one we are considering of a ft discovery that God does not care, a phecy that if ever that dark day d; poor humanity in despair will in an fall back from all hopefulness, aspira joyousness, and by one despairing pi reverse the life satisfactions of a thou years. Greatest of all these is the presence - - L? A wortn or unrisuanuy iu w attuumiu Christianity is a very unyielding fact has become too deeply rooted in the ? to be waived aside and crowded out by discovery' however authentic, that -w invalidate its claims. It has been fronted for centuries with conflictinj liefs and scientific evidence against it tegrity. The more it is opposed the i fearlessly it asserts itself, comforting heart, lighting the dark mind, insp and reinforcing the spirit. A fact so ful to humanity in every conceivable cessity when sinning and needing for ness, when weak and needing strei even when suffering martyrdom at stake, in the amphitheatre of wild be in heathen lands, midst persecutions numerous to be mentioned, but not many to be valiantly borne, must be fronted with stronger, surer proof thi at present conceivable th^t it relint its bold upon men's esteem. Yield it : if it were even proven God did not ( for Christianity was rooted in God'i teem before it found a place in m God not only cared, but so cared tha loved, else Christianity, that superb som and fruitage of Christ's life and t< __ -i u.j OT.;0f0/i p ing ana ue<iiu, imu uc?ci ^ tianity not only embodies God's car enshrines God's heart. And the si thing about it all is that we who yielded to God's word, caught the \ ings of the revelation through Jesus, all the evidence necessary for the re of God and His care. What value is j against God's interest in us, ho^\ scientific, to the man who has seen Lord, whose sins are forgiven, upon w God is each day lifting up the light oi face? When once the spiritual life ha tered the human heart, all cold, ext< evidence is ignored, and wisely. 1 again, the peace of mind that results belief that God cares for us enoug share His eternal home with us by an is evidence that will die hard, if it die at all, before any external evid that this world is all, and that our i storm-tossed existence is forever hush death's long sleep. A man said to me ing the week, "It pays to be religious, though it be discovered at the last there is no eternal life." The idea that present satisfactions are worth having, whatever the future may re When the divine spark that we call spiritual life once electrifies the h stimulating new loves, imparting ideals, revealing God's love and Ch: mastership, all of which produce bles of satisfaction and joy unspeakable external evidence to the contrary w little with that man's belief. And th exactly what Christianity does. It parts life. As Harnack puts it, "] eternal life in the midst of time, unde very eye, and in the very strengl God." As Jesus puts it, '"I am come ye might have life." I/i:e is a difi thing to argue against, and even to j I the fallacy of when men possess it an< i reaping manifold blessings from its ence each day. This is why we affirmed that God be discovered through internal revela rather than through external investiga The necessary approach, to be succei must come from Him to us, instea from us to Him. God must grapple and subdue man before man can re; ably expect to grapple with and cot God. Man's attitude is, Let me ui stand and I will reverence; let me i and I will love. God's attitude is, must reverence that you may underst you must love that you may know. ^ attitude is as yet in prospect, only rlim hnne of the scientific few. God' titude is daily being verified and prov< the world's sin sick, sorrow filled n tudes. All valid external discovery o: future will, I think, be along the lir and in harmony with revelation. ] now there are scientific evidences in direction. Immortality is being 9cie cally proven, not the fallacy of it. J verification of Christianity's content assertions may be expected from sciei research. God's universe is one. His tion unified and harmonious througl all true discovery must confirm this, consistency res' It. Apostolic testimoi good enough and preferable to all phetic scientific negation. We be i'eter knew whereof he spoke whei said "God cares." So much does He that you can well afford to cast all care upon Him, for He eareth for you. Dolnj; Duty Cheerfully. Ouf duty is to dc what God would us do, and to do it cheerfully becau should be done. God loves a checrful as well a. a cheerful giver. A child ir home, a man or a woman in his or place, gives added value to a right woi deed by being hearty and loving it speech or performance. We must say do lovingly what we should, whethei feel like it or not.
