Church. ‘The Congregational church was again crowded this morning, when the second day's session of the convention of Christian workers was opened. Many Persons were unable to gain admittance. For twenty minutes or half an hour before Mr. Moody arrived Mr. Wilson exercised his choir upon some of the spirited hymns in the book used tor the occa- sion, The church scemed to be well filled Defore ten o'clock, but the skillful ushers stil! found places to dispose of the streams of people who continued to pour in at the door. Mr. Moody came Upon the platform a few minutes before ten o'clock, much with the same air as @ practical business man breaks into his office in the morning ready for his day's work. The seats on the pation were then nearly ali taken by the ministers of the city. Mr. Moody, posing. on his glasses, gave out the hymna “Beulah and when that was sung gave out the hymn 3 sing of my Redeemer,” having the assembly rise. Rev. Richard Norris then offered a prayer, making a special petition for some one, sick unto death, who had requested prayer. hed A scriptural selection, 4 prayer by Rev. A. W. Pitzer, another hymn, then Mr. Moody arose and announced that Rev.'Dr. Faunce would open the discussion on “THE USE OF THR BIBLE IN CHRISTIAN WORK.” Dr Faunce stated that Dr. Gregory, who had ‘been appointed to open this discussion, wes unable toattend. He then gave an interesting talk of the Bible as a useful book. He thought that if the Bible could not be used with skeptics 1t was a de- fective work, but be maintained that it could be so used effectively. God had a text for every skeptic as well as for every Christin. Dr. Faunce spoke algo of men whom he described as gospet hardened, who had attended meeting alter meeting without effect. These, he said, could be reached by the spirit of God. He referred to what recently oc- curred to @ friend of his. While he wasin His stable, at twenty minutes past nine, the words sud- aenly came to him, “Now is the accepted time.” Just at that time, at the church near by seven of his friends were praying for bim. He received the spirit right there in the stable. When Dr. Faunce concluded Dr. Bartlett said he knew that the assemblage would iike to hear trom. Mr. Moody on that subject at lengtn. MR MOODY'S DISCOURSE. Mr. Moody first gave out nhymn. After it was sung he stood up, took off his glasses, and begun to speak. He had been surprised, se sald, to find that some confessed Christians did not attach the same authority to the Old Testament as to the new. “it Towere going to give up any portion of the Bible,” he said, “1 wouid let the whole thing go at once.’ It would only take five minutes to do that, and there was no use taking five years fort.” He Teferred to the derision with wlilch some persons spoke of the Old Testament stories. Of the story of Jonah, he said, it was argued that the mouth of awhale was so small that it could not swallow Jonah. Now the Bible sald that God prepared a great fsh that swallowed Jonah.” “I have a great admiration,” said Mr. Moody, “for the colored Woman who sald thut if the Bible said God pre- paren a great man to swallow the whale she would lieve that.”? BIBLE CUTTERS. He referred to people whom he doseribed as read- ing the Bible with the penknife and cutting out this and cutting out that. It would not be long be- fore they would cut every page from Genesis to Revelations. If they cutout the Old Testament the question arose asto how much of the New Testament they would retain, He referred to the many passages from the Old Testament quoted in the ‘New Testament. When Christ sald “The Scriptures could not be broken,” referred tothe Old Testament, because they had no New Testa- ment then. If’ they wanted something that was golng tolast, they must get in love with the word of God. It would keep the fires on the altar burn- ing all the year around HOW TO KEEP RED HOT 365 DAYS IN THE YEAR. “If you want something,” sald Mr. Moody, “that ‘will keep you red hot 865 daysin the year you must getin love with the word of God.” Mr. Moody spoke of this as an age of miracles. He referred to the 200,000,000 ‘Bibles printed by the British and American publication socleties and to the fact that the whole revised New Testament was telegraphed to a newspaper and sold in the streets. “Lest some inflael will deny it in a few years,” sald Mr. Moody, “I got a copy and put it into my pocket.” He re- ferred to men who thought the Bible old and worn out. They preferred their newspapers. THE BIBLE AS A NEWS-GIVER, “Now, if you wantto get the news,” sald Mr. Moody, “you wiilhave togoto the Bible, These newspapers,” he added, pointing to the reporters, “tell you only what has taken place. If you want to find out what is golng to take place you wilt have to go to the Bible. {tis full of news, full of truth and everything you want.” Mr. Moody referred tothe fact that many per- sons claiming to be Christians talked against sud- den conversions. He did not believe in any other than a sudden conversion. “I would like to see,” he sald, “‘some of our mod- ern philosophers who talk against sudden conver- sions in the arctic regions.” He pictured such a person advising a man who had stolen $1,000 to steal only 3500 the next year, then to steal stillless the next year and finally Teach gradually the point of converston; ora drunk- ard, who had beaten his wife fifty times in the year, to beat her only twenty-five umes the next year, andinthat way break off gradually. The ible says let him who has stolen steal no ‘more. It did not take a man a great while to turn around, In Scotland, he said, when he talked of tha Bible he had to be very’ careful, for every man and woman brought his Bible with him, and when he made a mistake they showed it to him. In tls country one can preach auything, and the hearers don’t Know it. He believed that Was the reason so many people were carried away by every new heresy, He thought people ought to bring their Bibles with them to the church. That they ought tohave Biblesin large print,and not to have go much smoked glass and stained glass in the windows, so that everyone could see plainly. He sald thatit was not an exaggeration to say that there were a thou- sand Bible meetings held in London drawing rooms every night. Itwas a very common thing in the homes of the nobility, in the evening, for the ser- Vants tocome in; the tables to be cleared off; a lot of Baxter Bibles brought in, and the whole house- hold go to stuaying the Bible. It seemed to him to be much better than to be dancing until two or three o’clock in the morning; much better than the light gossip of the present day. He thought it would be a good thing to start right _here in Washington. He spoke of the Bible us growing sweeter and sweeter. He sald they wanted fn this country more ‘expository preaching. THE KIND OF PREACHING PEOPLE LIKE. Mr. Moody described Rev. Dr. Bower's method of Preaching in Scotland, expounding the epistie to Galatians, and did ft so effectually that all over the church men and women, deeply touched, were wiping the mist from their eyes. “Don't you think,” he satd, “people like that kind of preach- ing?” Many persons in the gathering answered, “Yes.” Mr. Moody spoke of artinclal Christians who did not care for the Word. He sald there was a man who declared he could make an artficial bee Which could not be told from areal bee. Another man said he could tell the difference. So the real bee and the artificial bee were placed upon a table. ‘The man then dropped some honey on a table, and the real bee disclosed itself by golng for the honey. Sothe real Christian wanted tne honey of thé Word. When Mr. Moody closed a prayer was of- fered fed Rev. A. F. Steele, of St. Mark’s P. E. church. After a hymn was sang Mr. Moody announced that Monday, from 11 to 12 o'clock, there would be & question drawer for one hour, when questions relating to practical Christian work would be answered. “You needn't,” he sald, “write out any questions about doctrines, for if you do, you will Waste time. They will not be answered.” Rev. Dr. Bartlett then opened the discussion of the question, “GOW TO PROMOTE REVIVALS.” “We ministers,” he sald, “put ourselves in here, or are put in here simply as folls to Mr. Moody, to ve hima rest.” He described what in his view was ihe nature of a revival and the need of revivals. He spoke of the deciension that fs inevitable in a community where there was no revival. The power in the divine economy which brought the soul into contact with God was the Holy Ghost. It was the Holy Ghost that awakened them to a consciousness of their declension which illuminated thelr souls. ‘The Christian never really hears the gospel until he has been illuminated by the spirit. “I don’t unink,” he said, “that st takes much of a man to preach, but it takes a great deal of a person to hear the gospel. They were there,” he suid, “for the purpose of putting themselves in condition to recelve the Holy Spirit.” He spoke of the great efforts made to bring about political revivals. Yet, he said, if they got upa convention people spoke of them as fanatical, They could get excited over business, over politics, but must not get excited over rell- mn.
