SPIRIT OF CREED
Dr. Talmsge Telia of Its Blighting
Effect on Mank'nd.
STRONG DENUNCIATION
Of Tho*e Who Worship the Qolden
Calf of Modern Idolatry and
Sacrifice Themselves
on Its Altar.
In this discourse Dr. Talraago shows
how tho spirit of grood dostroys when
it takos possession of a man and that
money got in wrong ways is a ourso.
Text: ttxoduB, xxxii, 20, And ho took
tho calf which thoy had mado and burnt
it in tho tiro, and ground it to powder,
and strowed it upon tho water, and mado
tho ohildren of Israel drink of it."
Pooplo will havo a god of soino kind,
and thoy prefer ono of thoir own making.
Hero oomo tho Israelites, breaking
eff their goldon earrings, tho men
as well as tho women, in thoso times
thoro was masculino as well as fominino
deooration. Where did they got thoso
beautiful gold earrings, ooming up as
thoy did from tho desort? Oh, thoy
borrowed them of tho Egyptians whon
thoy loft Egypt. Thoso oarrings aro
piled up into a pyarmid of glittering
beauty. "Any moro oarnugs to bring?"
says Aaron. None. Eiro is kindled,
tho earrings aro melted and pourod into
a mold, not of an eagle or a waroharger,
but of a Billy oalf. Tho gold oools down
tho mold is taken away, and tho idol is
sot up on its four legs. An altar is
built in front of tho shining oalf. Thoti
tho pooplo throw up thoir arms and
gyrato and shriek and danoo vigorously
and worship.
Mosos has boon six weeks on Mount
Sinai, and ho oomcs back and hoars tho
howling and sees tho danoing of thoso
goldon oalf fanatics, and ho loses his paticnoo,
and ho takes tho two platos of
stono on whioh were written tho Ten
Commandments and flings thorn so hard
against a rook that they split all to
pioocs. Whon a man gets angry, ho is
apt to break all tho Ton Commandinonts!
Mosos rushes in, and ho takos
this oalf god and throws it into a hot
tiro until it is molted all out of shape
and thon pulvotizcs it, not by tho
modorn applianoo of nitromuriatic aoid,
but by tho anoicnt applianoo of niter or
by tho old fashioned filo. Ho stirs for
tho pooplo a moBt nauseating draft, lie
takes this pulvorixcd golden oalf and
throws it in tho only brook whioh is
aoooBsiblo, and tho pooplo aro oompollcd
io oring oi mat Drook or not brink at
all.
Hut they did not drink all the glittoring
stufl thrown on tho surfaoo. Some
of it flows on down tho surfaoo of the
brook to tho rivor and then (lows on
down tho rivor to tho Boa, and tho soa
takes it up and boars it to tho mouth of
all tbo rivers, and when tho tidoB sot
baok tbo remains of this golden oalf
aro oarricd up into tho Potomao and
tho Hudson and tho Thames and tho
Tiber, and mon go out, and they skim
tho glittering surfaoo, and they bring it
ashoro, and thoy mako another golden
oalf, and California and Australia
break off thoir golden earrings to augment
tho pilo, and in tho firos of linanoial
cxoitcmcnt and strugglo all these
things arc molted togcthor, and whilo
wo stand looking and wondering what
will como of it, lo, wo find that tho
golden oalf of Israclitish worship has
beoomo tho golden oalf cf European and
Amorioan worBhip.
Pull asido this eurtain and you soo
the goldon oalf of modern idolatry. It
is not, liko other idols, uiado out of
stooks or stone, but it has an car so sensitive
that it oan hear tho whispers on
Wall street, and Thiid street, and Stato
street, and lootfalls in tho Hank of
England, and tho flutttcr of a Frenchman's
heart on tho Hourdo. It has an
eyo so keen that it oan boo tho rust on
tho farm of Michigan wheat aud tho in
*eoi in mo Maryland peach orchard and
tho trampled grain under tho hoof of
tho Russian war chargor. It is so
mighty that it swings any way it will
tho world's shipping. It has its foot on
all tho morohantmon and tho stoainors.
It started tho Amorioan civil war and
undor God, stopped it, and it docid.d
the Turke Russian oontcst. Ono broker
in Soptcmber, in New York,
shouted, "Ono hundred and sixty for a
million! and the wholo oontinout
shivered. Tho goldon oalf of tho text
has, as far as Amcrioa is oonoerned, its
right front foot in Now York, its loft
front foot in Chioago, its right back
foot in Charleston, its left back foot in
Now Orleans, and it shakes itsolf tho
world. Oh, this i6 a mighty god?tho
golden oaif of tho world's worship.
But ovory god must havo its temple,
and this golden oalf of tho text is no
exoeption. Its tcmplo is vaster than
St. Paul s cathedral in England, and
SU Peter's in Italy, and tho Alhambra
of tho Spaniards, and tho Parthenon of
tho Greeks, and tho Taj Mahal of tho
Hindoos and all tho oathodrals put together.
Its pillars aro grooved and
fluted with gold, and its ribbed arohos
are hovering gold, and its ohandcliers
aro dooonding gold, and its floors aro
teBsellatcu gold, and its vaults aro
orowded heaps of gold, and its spiros
and domes are soaring gold, and its
organ pipes aro resounding gold, anl its
pedalsare tramping gold, and its stops
pulled out aro aro flashing gold, whilo
land at the head of tho templo, as tho
!J! 1
piasiuing Qcuy, are trie hoofs and
shouldors and eyes and oars and nostrils
of the oalf of gold.
Further, ovory god must havo not
only its temple, but its altar of sacrifice,
and this golden oalf of the text is
no exoeption. Its altar is not inado out
of stone as other altars; but out of
oounting room desks and firoproof safes,
and it is a broad, a long, a high altar.
The viotims sacrificed on it aro tho
Bwartouts and tho Ketohams and tho
Fisks and 10,000 other pcoplo who aro
slain before this golden oalf. What
does this god oare about tho groans and
struggles of the viotims beforo it? With
eold, metallio eye it looks on and yot
lets them suffer. What an altar I What
a saerifioo of mind, body and soul! Tho
p tysioal health of a great multitude is
hung on to this sacrifioal altar. They
cannot sleep, and they tako ohloral and
and morphine and intoxioants. Some
of them struggle in nightmare of stooks j

and at 1 o'oleck in tho morning suddonly
rioo up, shouting, "A thousand
shares of Now York Central?108*-tako
ill" until tho who'o family is
alfrightod, and tlo speculator*fals hack
on thoir pillow and sloop until they aro
awakened again by a "corner in I'aoilio
Mail or a suddon "riso"-cf ltook Id and.
Thoir norvos gono, their digest ion gono
their brain gono, thoy dio. Tho gowned
ecclesiastic oomes in and reads tho
funeral ecrvice, "Blesstd aro tho doad

did not "dio in tho Lord." Tho golden
oalf kicked thorn!
Tho troublo is whom tnon sacrifico
themselves on this altar suggostcd in
tho text thoy not only saorifioo themselvos,
but thoy saorifioo thoir fainilios..
If a man by a wrong oourso is determined
to go to pordition, Isupposo you
will havo to lot him go. Hut ho puts
his wifo and ohildron in an equipago
that is tho amazement of tho avonuos,
and tho drivor lashes tho horses into
two whirlwinds, and tho spokes Hash in
tho sun, and thogoldon headgear of tho
harness gloarns until blaok calamity
takos tho bits of tho horsos and stops
them and shouts to tho luxuriaots of
tho equipago, "(Jot out!" Thoy got
out. Thoy got down. That husband
and fathor flung his family so hard they
novorgot up. Thoro was tho mark on
them for lifo?tho mark of a Bplit hoof
?tho doath dealing hoof of tho goldon
oalf.
Solomon olTered in ono sacrilioo on
one occasion 22,000 oxen and 120,000
shoop, but that was a tamo saorifioo
compared with tho raultitudo of men
who aro sacrificing themselves on this
altar of tho-golden oalf and saorifioing
their families with them. Tho soldiers
of Ooncral Havolook in India walkod
litorally ankle docp in tho blood of
"tho house of massaoro" whero 200
whito women and children had bcon
slam by tho sepoys, but tho blood about
thin altar of tho goldon oalf flows up to
tho knoo, flows up to tho girdlo, Howh
up to tho shoulder. flown up to tho lip.
Groat God of hcavon and earth, havo
meroy on Uiobo who iimuolato thorn
boIvch on this altar! Tho golden calf
has none.
Still the degrading worship goos on,
and the devoteos knool and kisH tho dust
and count their goldon beads and oross
themselves with tho blood of thoir own
saorifioo. Tho tuusio rolls on undor
tho nrohes. It is mado of clinking silver
and clinking gold and tho rattling
speoio of the bangs and brokers' shops
and tho voices of all tho exchanges.
Tho fioj rano of the worship is carried
by tho tiiriid voioos of men who havo
just bogun to spooulato, whilo tho deep
bass rolls out from thoso who for ton
years havo boon steeped in tho soothing
caldron. Chorus of voiocs rejoicing
over what thoy havo made; ohorus of
voioos wailingovor what they havo lost.
This tomplo of which I spoak stands
open day and night, and thoro is the
glittering god with his four foot on
broken hearts, and thoro is tho Binoking

Some pcoplo aro vorymuoh surprised
at tho actions of pcoplo in tho Stook
Kxchango, Now York. In loed, it is a
soono Bomotimoa that paral^zos description
and is boyond tho imagination of
any ono who has never looked. What
snapping of fingor* and thumb and wild
gostioulation and raving like hyonas and
stamping liko hutTalocs and swaying to
and fro and jostling and running ono
upon another and deafening uproar,
until the president of tho exohaugo
strikos with his mallot four or live times,
crying, "Order, orderl" and the aston
ished spoctator goes out into tho fresh
air fooling that he has esoapod from pandemonium.
What doos it all moan?
I will tell you what it means. Tho devotees
of ovcry heathen tomplo out
thomsolvoB to picoos and yell and gyrate
This vooiferation and gvration of tho
Stook Mxchaogo is all appropriate.
This is tho worship of tho goldon calf.
Hut my toxt suggests that this worship
has to be brokon up, as tho bohavior
of Mosos on this oooasion indicated.
Thoro aro thoso who say that
this golden oalf spoken of in tho tcxtwas
hollow and merely plated with gold,
otherwiso Mosos oould not have carried
it. I do not know that hut somehow,
perhaps by tho assistance of hiH frionds,
ho takes up this golden oalf, which is
an infernal insult to God and
man, and throws it into tho
firo and it is molted, and thon it oomcs
out and is ooolod off, and by somo
ohomioal applioanoo or by an old fashioned
file it is pulvorizod. and it is
thrown into tho brook, and as punishmont
the pcoplo arooompollod to drink
tho nausoating stuff. So you may dopond
upon it that God will hum aud
ho will grind to picoos tho goldon oalf
of modern idolatry, and ho will compel
tho pcoplo in their agony to drink it.
If not before, it will bo so on tho last
day. I know not whero tho firo will bogin,
whothcr at tho "Battery" or Lombard
Btrcot, whothor at Shorcditoh or
West Knd, but it will ho a very hot
blszo. All tho govcrnmont securities
of the United Slatoa and Great Britain
will ourl up in tho first hlazo. All tho
monoy safes and doposit vaults will
melt undor tho first touoh. Tho sea
will burn liko tinder, and tho shipping
will bo abandoned forever. Tho melting
gold in tho broker's window will
burst through tho moltco window glass
into tho stroot, but tho ilying population
will not stop to sooop it up. Tho
ory of '"Firo! ' from tho mountain will
bo answered by tho ory of "Firel' in
tho plain. Tho oontlagration will burn
out from tho oontinont toward tho soa
and thon burn in from tho soa toward
tho land. Now York and London with
ono out of tho red soytho of dostruotion
will go down. Twenty-five thousand
milos of conflagration I Tho oarth will
wrap itself round and round in shroud
of flamo and lio down to porish. What
then will bccomo of your golden oalf?
Who thon so poor as to worship it?
Molted or botwoen tho upper and tho
nothcr millstono of falling mountains
ground to powdor. Dagon down, Molooh
down, Juggernaut down, goldon oalf
down!
But overy day is a day of judgment,
and God is all tho time grinding to
picoos tho goldon calf. Sotno years
ago in a timo of panio wo lcarnod as
never beforo that forgorios will not
pay, that tho watoring of stock will
not pay, that tho spending of 150,000
on ocuntry seats and a palatial oity rosidenoo
when there aro only ?10,000 in_
i
oomo will not pay, that the appropriation
of trust funds to our own private
speoulation will not pay. We had a
groat national turner in tho shapo of
tiotiinus prosperity. Wo oallcd it national
onlargomcnt. Instoad of oalliug
it culargoinont wo might bettor
havo oallcd it a swelling. It was a
tumor, and God out it out, and tho natiou
was sont baok to tho prinoiplos of
our fa'hers and grandfathers, when
twioo thrco mado ti instoad of 00 and
whon tho apples at tho bottom of tho
barrel wcro just as good as tho applos
on tho top of tho barrol and a silk handkerchief
was not half ootton and a man
who woro a $"> ooat paid for was iuoro
honored than a man who woro a $~>0 ooat
not paid for.
Tho modorn golden oalf, like tho
onoof tho text, is very apt to be mado
out of borrowed gold. Those Isoralitos
of tho text borrowed tho earrings of
mo Egyptians and thon luoltod them
into a god. This is tho way tho golden
calf is mado nowadays. A great
many housekeeper# not paying for tho
ariiolos thoy got borrow of tho grocor
and tho bakor and tho butohor aud tho
gry goods sollor. Thon tho retailers
borrows of tho wholosalo dealer.
Thon tho wholosalo dealer borrows of
tho oapitalist, and wo borrow and borrow
and borrow until tho community
is dividod into two olas608, thoso who
borrow and thoso who aro borrowed of,
and after awhilo tho oapitalist wants
his monoy, and ho rushes upon tho
wholcsalo dealer, and tho wholosalo
dealer wants his monoy, and ho rushos
upon the rotailcr, and tho rotailor
wants his monoy, and ho rashos on tho
customer, and wo all go down togothor.
There is many a man this day who
rides in a earriago and owes tho black
smith for tho tiro ond tho whoolwright
for tho wheel and tho trimmor for tho
ourtaiu and tho drivor for unpaid
wages and tho harness maker for tho
bridle and tho furrier for tho robo,
while from tho tip of tho earriago
tongue clear back to tho tip of tho
oamol's hair shawl fluttoring out of tho
baok of tho vohiolo everything is paid
for by notes that havo boon throo times
ronowod.
I toll you that in thin oountry wo
shall never got things right until wo
stop boi rowing and pay as wo go. It
is this temptation to borrow and borrow
and borrow that keeps tho peoplo
everlastingly praying to the golden oalf
for holp, and just at tho minuto Ihey
ex poet tho holp tho goldon oalf troads
on them. Tho judgements of God,
liko Moses in tho text, will rush in
and br< ak up this worship, and L say
let tho work go on until ovcry man
shall loaru to speak tho truth with his
neighbor, and thoso who mako engagements
shall foel thcmsolvos bound
to keop Jthom, and when a man who
will notropontof hiH business iniquity,
1 ut g^es on wishing to patiato his cannibal
appotito by devouring widow's
houses, shall, by tho law of tho land,
booomjolod to oxohango tho brownstone
front for tho ponitontiary. Lit
tho goldon calf perish!
Hut, if wo havo tnado this woild our
god, when wo como to dio wo shall pee
our idol demolished. How inuoh of
this world arc you going to tako with
you iuto tho next? Will you have
two pockets?ono in caoh sido of your
shroud? Will you cushion your oatket
with honds and mortgages and
oerlilioatcB of stook? Ah, no! Tfto
forryhoat that orosses this Jorhan takes
no baggago?nothing hoavior than an
immortal spirit. You may, perhaps,
tako f500 with you two or three miles
in ?ho sbapo of funeral trappings to
tho omiotary, but you will havo to
leavo them thoro. It would not bo
safe for VOU to lie down thorn with ?
gold watch or diamond ring. It would
bo a tcni pat ion to tho pillagoro. If wo
havo mado thin world our god, wo shall
boo our idol when wo dio ground to
pieoos by our pillow, and wonhall havo
10 drink it iu bittor rogrots for tho
wasted opportunities of a lifetime.
Soon wo will bo gono. \Vi{cro aro tho
men who tried Warron Hasting* in

tho Fourth of July, 1794; rnarohed

Cincinnati who dinod that aftornoon at
Tontino ooflro houso on Wall stroot?
and Grant* Thoburn, who that aftornoon
waited 15 minutes at tho foot of maiden

Gono! Oh, this is a Hooting
world! It is a dying world. A man
who had worshiped it all his days in
his dying momont doscribad himself
whon ho said, "Fool, fool, fool!"
I want you to ohango tomplos and
to givo up tho worship of this unsatisfying
and oruol god for tho servioo of
tho Lord Josus Christ. Horo is tho
gold that will never orumblo. Horo
aro tho banks that will never break.
Horo is an altar on whioh thoro has
boon ono paoriftoo that doos for all,
for "by ono saorifioo hath Christ perfected
forover thorn that aro sanotifioi."
Horo is a God who will oomfort you
whon you aro in troublo and sootho
you whon you aro sick and savo you
whon you dio. For ho has said:
"When thou passoth through tho waters
I will bo with theo, and through
tho rivers thoy shall not ovorflow theo;
whon thou walkost through tho firo,
thou shalt not bo burned, noithor shall
tho flamo kindlo upon thoo."
Whon your paronts havo broathod
thoir last and tho old, wrinklod and
trombline hands oon no mom hn mi?
upon your hoad for a blossing, ho will
bo to you a father and mother both,
giving you tho dofonso of ono and tho
oomfort of tho othor. For havo wo
not Paul's blessed hopo that as J onus
died and roso again, "oyon so thorn
also whioh sloop in Josus shall God
bring with him." And whon your
ohildron go away from you, tho swoot
darlings, you will not kiss thorn and
say goodbye forovcr. Ho only wanta
to hold them' a littlo whilo for you.
IIo will give thorn baok to you again,
and ho will bavo thorn all waiting for
at the gates of eternal weloomo. Oh,
what a God ho isl Ho will allow you
to oomo so oloso that you can put your
arms aroncd his nook, whilo ho in response
will put his arms around your
neok, and all tho windows of heaven
will bo hoisted to let tho redeemed
look out and boo tho Hp-jotaolo of a rejoicing
father and a returned prodigal
looked in that glorious embrace.
Quit worshiping tho golden calf and
bow this day boforc him in whose
