IN THE PRESBY1 .Dr. J. L. Martin Conducted R [Morning?A Sern Dr. J. Lovvrie Wilson, the pastor, I being absent, attending a funeral, l)r. J. L. Martin conducted service last Sunday morning in the Presbyterian church at this place. ml-- 1 :" ?!./. /.Ul.tK i. Ue ItAt >v?s i u mc tijjLim bua|>Ki I and twenty-eighth verse of the Epistle ' of Paul the Apostle to the Romans, namely: "For T am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, uorany other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." The preacher, as stated, took au extract from Saint Paul's writings as a , text. In lifce mauner, we Dope mat our friend will pardon us if we take the conduct of his service last Sunday morning as a text upon which a layman may write a sermon. Nothing herein is intended to be personal except in loving kindness, and all . of what we say will apply in a measure to nearly all the sermons that we have heard recently. Our long friendship for Dr. Marlin, and our perfect love for so good a man would preclude the possibility of intentional wrong to him. The love of God for us is,:wery assuring and very comforting to those of us who are ready to fold hands and go up, but what of our love of God and what of our love for the attributes of his holy Name? The speaker, to our mind, was not clear in what he said or meant in speaking about the "love of God." Whether it was God's love for us, or whether it was our love for God that he meant to enlarge upon we do not know. But we think the text speaks of God's love for us, and not our love for God. God's love for us is attested in everything, but where is the proof that we love God ? Do we keep his commandments? Do we serve him in mind and heart? Do we walk in the paths that lead to the better world ? Do we forgive our enemies? Do we lift up the fallen and tell them to be again children of the Heavenly Father? The preacher ia both his prayer and in his sermon followed the usual custom in omitting any mention or allusion to the fact that there might be iu the audience others than "God's people." He ignored the presence of that class who fell that they were scarcely worthy to enter the holy temple, and he seemed not to be aware of the fact that there were persuns present that had not by any means reached that degree of perfection or sanctification that would warrant them from being classed with the multitude that our Saviour came to save. We understand by "God's people," that they are an exclusive set that are better than the rest of us, and who may thank God that they are not as we are. We do not recollect that Dr. Martin, in either his prayer or in his sermon, had anything to say in behalf of the poor sinful creature whose soul may have been borne down by the weight of his iniquity, or whose heart may have been thirstinc and huneferiner for the bread of life. We heard much of the love of God for us, and very little of our love for God. If the preaeher had encouragement for the weak we do not remember it. If he, in either his sermon or in his prayer, recognized that cites of people for whom our Saviour died, it was not apparent. Our Saviour came to save sinners, and not to call the righteous to repentance. The sermon of itself was an able disquisition on speculative Theology, and appealed more to the mind than to the heart. Appeals to the mind are all well enough in their way, but the poor wretch who would, if he could, walk closer to God and serve him better, hopes for and looks for something of the tenderness and sweetness, the grace and the Roving kindness, which distinguished the earthly career of our Saviour. It all may be very well t<> divide people up into classes, namely : "God's people" and "sinners," but w^ submit that this is not the best way to bring a poor outcast to the foot of the Cross. It may be all right in our prayers to neglect the lowly, the downcast, and the weak, but if they are not remembered in the prayers, why should they go to church? If they are distinctly omitted from all benefits of the prayers, and if they, in the sermons, are disrespectfully referred to as "sinners" In contra distinction to :,God's people," is the church an inviting place for outcasts? The vilest wretch in the sound of the preacher's voice, loves to hear prayers in behalf of the class to which he belongs, and such prayers are always grateful to the veriest sinner. But for such people to listen to talk about "God's people," is about as interesting and as elevating to them as tearing the flesh from their bones. What was there in all of Dr. Martin's talk that was interesting or comforting to the man who may have been at the moment struggling to con-j quer his sinful nature, and who may in his feeble and imperfect efforts, have been trying to acquire strength to leave the devious ways that he might walk in the straight aud narnow path ? Last Sunday in listening to the ser. mon and to the prayers of so learned | and so able a man as Dr. Martin, we felt disposed to doubt our own ability to comprehend the Christian religion or to understand the object of the mis- j sion of our Saviour on earth. God w i * v. liRIAN CHURCH. I eligious Services Last Sunday ion on a Sermon. love, and our Saviour exemplified (bat quality iu all that he did. He appealed to the heart. lie would raise up the fallen. He would strengthen the weak. He would set our feet in the l better paths, and he would save us from condemnation. He would forgive our sins, and bid us to forget the past, and he would teach us henceforth tn linlipr and nurer lives. The only scathing tilings that he said were of or to those who thought they were too good for any purpose, except the Kingdom of Ijfeaven. To the erriug he spoke kindly, and in loving encouragemeut he spoke to the sinful. Even those who were, so to speak, * buried in sins, fouud in him a friend. He iguored none. It is just to say that Dr. Martin, while making many references to "God's people," spoke but once of that class at whom God's people are presumed to turu up their noses. Aside from the text : Sometimes Sj we have heard people lambasted be- P cause of their absence from religious (i worship, and the fact that many per- b sons seldom darken the door of a J1 nhnrch is not to be denied. There is ,, no result or effect without a cause. c Why are our peop'e not at church c more frequently? Is it iuate per- 0 versemeut of heart? Or, is it because (J the service does interest them? But q without attempting to decide thisques- ? tion one way or another, we suggest ' that if "sinners" were treated as cliildren of the heavenly father, and if r our preachers proclaimed the brother- 1 hood of man, and if such as are now c Q treated as outcasts aud unworthy of a respect, were remembered in the ap- j peals to the throne of Grace, that in a b short time, fewer pews would be empty on Sunday moruiug. If appeals to the head were aban- t doned we would have fewer agnostics u aud fewer unbelievers. . ^ The preacher who attempts to prove the correctness of his religion by the Book, and not by the lives of the faithful, is at once at a disadvantage. ? No preacher should attempt to argue with unbelievers. But every preacher that would bring'souls to our Saviour 1 should appeal to the heart?not to the ? head. ' * The reading of the Scriptures and c the prayers are the most important ? part of the service. The reading of ? the Scriptures should be without add- s ing to or taking from the holy word. * The lowliest, as well as the highest, ^ should be remembered in our prayers, i Disquisitions on theoretical tbeolo- j! gical hair splitting is unprofitable. 1 Talks about "God's people" and sneers at "sinners" are not very effective in s bringing people to church and in fill- 1( ing our souls wi th gratitude to God. c The preacher who would convince d his hearers of his piety, should not j speak of the Almighty as irrevently as c he would call the name of George v Washington, and that Name should 'j not be heard fifty times in thirty min- * utes. That Name should not be taken n upon our lips except in reverential 1 awe. The flippant and irreverent use of that Name, we believe, is almost 1 t universal among our preachers. The preacher who would use such expressions as "God's earth" should be required to answer before the church courts for his transgression, and for his | violation of one of the command- j menis he should be called to account, a a tm 8 DONALDS. \ * c c Donalds, S.
