CSCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON BY
THE REV. 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

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

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

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.

of our noble President, but none more
at beautiful than this: On the day of the
of funeral of Secretary rfay, the Presiif
dent's train left Cleveland shortly after
st noon. In the hurry there was no time
)d for lunch. At Wbeelock's Switch the
er train had to lay over for a little and
ni the President asked that the lunch be
;n spread on a beautiful plot of grass
'd close by the train. When all /were
u- seated around the cloth, the President
u- arose to his knees and asketl the blessing
of God on the simple repast thus
?i- prepared. In this quiet, out-of-the-way.
e- place, the President of the United
er States, leadinir his Cabinet Ministers

jo grass by the wayside, is a scene worthy
jy of the painter, and brings him nearer
to the hearts of the people than many
a of the scenes heralded and applauded
id the world over.?Nashville Lutheran.
