DISCUSSES TAINTED MONEY AND HOLDS THAT "THE ALTAR SilNCTIFIETH THE OIFr" Editor County Record:?I have been reading.with much interest the ; pros and cons of the "tainted monI ey'' dilemma and feel like compliI menting the Brooklyn Eagle for its j very sensible conclusion: that mouev ey does not luint, and if it. did, the taint-would be re'noved by putting the money to good use. The strange infatuation with which the divines and some of the best writers holdout against receiving gifts from unholy contributors to church purposes is as surprising as curious. Let us go to headquarters, the Bible, for advice: "And Jesus beheld the people cast their money into the treasury and many that were rich cast in much; but a a certain jioor widow cmsi in two miles, and he said: 41 say unto you that this poor widow hath cast in more than they ull;<for she hath cast in all the living that she had. Truly it was more to her than all the large gifts were to the rich, and the Lord valued it because it was such a sacrifice. But all was God's money and "the altar sanctifieth the gift"?Matthew xxiii, 19. "The cattle upon a thousand l:ii. *i? t.....i .ir?. IIIIIS iHC ililliC, OilJUl lUf JJUiU, IVI the world is mine and the fulness thereof.*' All in the Jewish nation was required to castnnto the treasury, and can any oue suppose for i moment that there were no unholy conuihutors in that crowd? But "the altar sanctifieth the gift.'" Now when the gifts are cast into the treasury the responsibility of the contributor is at au end, and it is then up to God's stewards (the preachers) to put the Lord's money to work evangelizing the world. Their actions can clog the gospel wheels or roll 011 the good wort; therefore, if any of God's creatures bring au offering, be that creature good or bud, ic is God's mouey aul his stewards dare not refuse it nor neglect to. put it to work. The Lord rules the universe of millions of suns and systems by ceitaiu automatic laws. Ouce having been put in notion the centrifugal and centripetal forces of propulsion and gravitation are automatically evened up so that each system revolves and travels in its proper sphere obedient to Original Purpose, and He also rules the nations of the rarth. He made man the highest type of pre-agency and gave him certain laws to obey aud holds him him responsible. If one is a failure he puts in another,that the ecouorhX of his government shall r ot fail. God rules and says. My word shall not return unto #me void but shall accomplish that whereuuto t sent it. Of Ephraim of old he*said: "Let him alone; he is joined to his idols.'' And of certain wicked disbelievers St Faul says: "God will send stroug delusion tthat i hey may believe a he." And when God says, "Let him alone" and takes the promptings of the holy spirit from him he is left unrestrained and automatically drift* into strong delusion and believes a lie? believes that he oan.buy God's favor with money and thinks it to be his 0^11 money, but it is God's money. The decree is tlW man?not angels?must carry the gospel to all the world. The people must put a part of the Lord's money in the gospel channel and the stewards must do the work. But 1 do think the ridiculous quibbling over the reception of Mr Rockefeller's $100,000 missionary gift is a sin against God's ruling economy, as well ugaiust the ; uncivilized nations for whose benefit ' it was intended; for every good and perfect gift comes from God, for God iu His all wise provideuce sends it if the devil brings it and God's stewards are standing jii the way if they refuse it, for "the altar sanctifieth the gift." There are thousands and thousands in our own civilized country I just as mean a* Rockefeller- and they hiabitually cast money into God's treasury, and if the altar does not sanctify the gift, and if money really does get tainted, where ?vonld we drift to? But one of Omaha's most prominent divines caps the climax in clogging the wheels of the gospel chariot when he says: "If Mr Rockefeller's wealth was obtained dishonestly the man, the church, that takes the money partakes with the thief, so AAnfimiAfl hid /It'll fUllj; JW lie UWIHIIIIICO IIIO VMI VVM?WV without open confession and amendment!" If so, then a r-eacher, in hiking a collection,mas - say: "Noiy, brethren and sisters, we want so much for church purposes, but only those who have clean hands aud holy hearts will be eligible to cast money into the treasury?no unholy person must give to the Lord!" How much would he get? Wouldn't he be clogging the gospel wheelt? The^giveis, in that case, must sanctify the gifts, no need for God's plan, the altar, to sanctify the gift, apd if a bad man owes a debt the creditor dares not receive it for fear of partaking with the thief! God knew all these things and long ago prepared, a plan. Christ's death on the cross redeems Jthe altar and the world and "the $ltar sanctitit-til the gift." Mr Editor, this filing is getting almost world-wide and is doing incalculable liar in . When God's stewards proclaim that they will receive 110 gifts from uuholv people, they not only cut off God's church from that class of contributors but dishearten the membership by placing double burdens on the others and I fear will set the church back a generation to come. I commend as sensible and right a certain preacher's position wheu he said, "I would say *yes, take it,' and wish it was a hundred million instead of a hundred thousand*" Now that kind of steward would grease up the chariot wheels and roll on the good cause. But here it conies. I have just read that Rockefeller has sure enough given one hundred millions mfor general school purposes?the twin sister of Christianity. God rules,- and I thank God for the economy of a providence that automatically impels such great bleisings to the good of maukiud. The Lord sent it, and I am so sure of it aud so glad of his gooduess, that I have a good will to s;gn, '*H E Eaddy," in place of Possum Fork. Fwni m I \N , L. BASS Attorney at Law LAKE CITY, S. C.
