The 11 “Our Inmost Illu- THE TWO-WAY PULPIT Views of Opposing Religious Leaders f on Bible Questions. TODAY’S Is Church Membership BY HURBERT C. HERRING. (Noted Liberal Writer, Lecturer, Preacher, Boston.) Nb. The question uses two terms which demand definition. Salvation, what is it? Church membership, what is i, what sort of church is implied? There are a number of things which salvation is not. It is not safe- here or_here- : I doubt whether God ever intended any man to b sate. I doubt whether God ever desired men to fo- cus their attention on securing a safe conduct through eternity. Salvation 1s a state of living. A man is saved when he finds the clue to life, when he shakes off the mean- ness and littleness which beset him and emerges a free man in God's free world. A slave cannot be saved. He 1s damned by his own chains, whether those chains be forged in bigotry and intolerance or in bestiality and base- ness. That man 1s saved who has learned to understandsthe range and loveliness of life, and who never, by thought or deed, cheapens that loveliness. That man’ is saved who does good work and renders just service and plays his part in life. That man is damned who is satisfied with anything less than a full sharing in the best that he knows. s church membership essentlal to salvation? No. Does church membership contribute to salvation? That is another ques- tion. It all depends upon the Kind of church, and the kind of member. There are free churches, and there are slave churches. The distinction has nothing whatever to do With denomination or creed. There are churches, cathedrals, syna- gogues -in which ministers, priests, Tabbis teach truth which glows. They fllumine human experience, they en- large the borders of understanding and insight. They make men tolerant sympathetic, nsitive. They take from the wealth of the past and pour it into the souls of the men who make the future. Such churches gather together men and women who would learn how to live, and who learn together. Such churches contribute to salvation. To be a member of such a church is to share in the fullness of the experience of others, and the accumulated experi- ence of centuries. Should one belong to the church? By all means, if vou can find a church which is free, a church which foeds the soul, enlarges the heart, furnishes meaning to life. These things we must have if we are to be saved. FULL GOSPEL REVIVAL. Different Speakers Will Preach at Nightly Services.

Pastor_Calvary Bantist Church, New York: President Fundamentalist League. The church is a divine institution, though it is made up of human ma- terial. Membership in the organized church is not essential to salvation, but it is essential to full obedience and fruitful serv- ice to Jesus Christ. Church member- ship, therefore, is a high. privilege and a sacred duty for the following reasons, among others: 1. Because man's spiritual nature needs food as tru- ly as his physical self. An under- nourished body is a_prolific source of aches and pains and grumps and grouches and slacker service and poor work. Hence, our three “square meals” a day. An undernourished soul means grov- eling ideals, ignoble purposes, morbid thoughts, selfishness, instead of serv- Ice, clouded brow, an easy target for “the fiery darts of the wicked one,” and hell at last! 2. Because the church is organized ®ood battling against organized ev. Evil s organized, militant and mighty By the adamantine bonds of sordid self-interest, by community of thought and evil design, and by natural iniqui- tous consanguinity all forms of evil inevitably gravitate together. Smite one form of evil and every other form in the catalogue of hell will rise up to smite you. Now, meeting these serried ranks of sin and shame, the church stands as organized good—the battalions of righteousness “fair as the moon, clear as the sun and terrible as an army with banners.” And Jesus sald of it: “My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it!" 3. Because the church is the great almoner of God's mercy and goodnesg to the children of men. The church has been the guardian of truth, the dispenser of charity, the healer of the sinful, the comforter of the sorrow- ing and the redeemer of those who fall. We should love her truly and we should serve her well, because her kindly nand down all the Christian centuries has been upon the fevered brow of humanity and her bounty is still teeding the hungry, clothing the naked, strengthening the weak and saving the lost. : 4. Because God, our Heavenly Fa- ther, commands us “Forsake not the assembling of yourselves together.” The inspirations of the sanctuary and the comforts of religion are all en- hanced to the individual through the ‘‘assembly of the saints.” To sing to- gether the songs of Zion, to meditate in God's law and to send up our prayers with the prayers of our fel- lows to the throne of Life and Love and Mercy is the highest privilege known this side of Heaven. By all the tears which she has wiped from the cheeks of sorrow, by all the deeds of charity whicl. she has done, by all the high souls among the children of men that she has nurtured in holiness and power, by all the fallen that she has raised up and all the disconsolate that she has encouraged with a new hope, the men and women of today ought to rally to and support the church of the living God!

Golden Text: Let us run with patience the race that is set be- fore us, looking unto Jesus, the author and perfecter of ~our faith. Hebrew xii.1-2 F —_— Emerson says that “God once in a hundred years or so creates a great man, and then breaks that mold forever.” Moses, about whose per- sonality has been focused the teach- ings of the lessons for the quarter, was one of God's great men. Few, if any mortals, have surpassed the greatest of the prophets whose dra- matic career stands out like a lofty mountain peak in history. Against the dark background of Israel’s slav- ery, suffering and sorrow, the gran- deur of the heroic character of their liberator, lawgiver and leader appears upon the pages of the scripture as one of the great men of the world. God had not forgotten Israel, or His promises, when they were called upon to endure the experiences of bondage. The nation was being pre- pared to leave the fertile flelds, where for several centuries they had enjoyed great prosperity because of Joseph's successful efforts in saving Egypt from the perils of the famine. To the new dynasty, that had thrown off the yoke of bondage of the shepherd Pharoahs, the presence of the Israel- ites appeared to be a peril. Segregated by language, religion and race from the rest of the nation, their presence in Goshen in'close proximity to Asia, appeared to the new Egyptian rulers to be a source of peril, especially when they faced the prospect’of war with Asfatic powers. They tried va- rious methods of persecution which only served to increase the numbers of the Israelites, whose cry for relief found a response in the heart of God, who called Moses to dellver his brethren. The Nation's Emancipation. When Israel was prepared by its bitter experience to follow the leader- ship of a great man, God had pre- pared His man. e called Moses to undertake the mission at an hour when most men expect to retire from the activities of life. Although he'had been born of Hebrew parentage and saved from an untimely death by be- ing adopted and reared in the family of Pharaoh, Moses had for 40 years been employed at the common task of caring for sheep in the wilderness of Sinai. He had been living as an exile there for four decades because his pa- triotism caused him to ‘“refuse to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to suffer affiictions with the peeple of God.” When he sought to avenge the wrongs of hig breth®ren, he was forced to flee as a fugitive into the desert, where God | completed his preparations to become the nation’s liberator. It was part of Jehovah's program to complete his training by the experi- ence in the solitude. The man, who had been trained in all learning of Egypt, needed to know God. Although he was familiar with all the arts of Egypt’s marvelous civilization, fitted for executive and legislative service, a hero in martial deeds, he lived in se- clusion in the mountains of the des- sert, married to the daughter of a Bedouin sheik, tending the flocks of his father-in-law for his daily bread and a tent to cover him. The desert discipline fitted him for his task by enabling him to tame his impetuous will and master his passion through mediation upon God’s greatness and opening ‘his heart to hear His voice, ‘While he looked back upon his life as a failure and hesitated to reply to God’s call, he obeyed the command. Her was destined to learn what he could do by obeying God's orders. Men discover their fitness by yielding them- selves up to Him. The slumbering fires of greatness manifested them- gelves in his life as an original think- er, founder of a nation and law-givi for all ages. He summoned his broth- er Aaron and his sister Miriam to help him inspire all Israel with his faith that God had heard their cry and would deliver them by his performance of miracles. The nation, having been prepared by _trials, tribulation and trouble, moved forth When they assem- bled to observe the first passover, that marked the beginning of their his- tory as a nation. “The children of Ab- raham were freed from their bondage under the leadership of Moses, whose greatness grew out of his seeking to know and do God's will. Israel nevi er forgot the deliverance at the Red Sea, even though frequently there arose a desire for the fertility of Egypt during their early experiences in the desert. Founding a Nation. Our lessons have traced the efforts exerted to wield the various units of the Israelitish freedmem into unity. They have largely covered the period spent about Sinai. One of our lessons covered the experiences of Moses when the commissary department broke down, God met the people’s phy- sical needs by providing manna. In this daily provision for the nation the young nation should have learned that Jehovah ,could save and keep them. America owes much to Jethro, the father-inlaw of Moses, who saw how that the brilliant founder was break ing down under the strain of trying tc settle all the petty problems of in dividual, family and tribal differences Historians have traced back to ti constructive criticism of this pris of the desert the fundamental prir ciples of our democracy. He devised . system of administration of justice that lifted the burden from Moses anc gave him opportunity to unify the n2 tion through imparting to them law: and a system of religious worship. While Aaron failed to use his op- portunities to restrain and guide the nation along the right lines, while Moses was absent conferring with Je hovah about the needs of the natior along religious and legal lines, by con senting to their request e mak ing of the golden calf, M revealec bia displeagucs AL thelr Sunday School Lesson into idolatry. Later he gave them the Ten Commandments that outline our duties to God and our fellows. ‘While simple, they embrace every pos- sible /human relationship. Jesus showed by his teachings their proper meaning, just as. He deduced them all to one, “Thou shalt love.” Having organized them and given them the law, Moses proceeded to develop their spiritual life. They needed a place for worshiping God, so he erected his Tent of Meeting that helped develop their desire to worship God in accordance with the pattern given him upon the Mount. All men are religious, but they can never en- joy their religion apart from the fel- lowship of others. The generous gifts of the people made possible the erec- tion of the Tabernacle and the estab- lishment of a system of worship that developed the religious life of the nation and unified them as a'people. Last week’s lesson had to do with the proper observance of God's laws, but.its application was called to be made to modern conditions, demand- ing the observance of all law by its being the temperance lesson. The Quarter’s Message. The quarter's message has been fo- cused about the life of Moses. It has been summed up in our golden text calling for us to “run with patience the race that is set before us, look- ing unto Jesus, the author and finish- er of our faith.” ‘Israel in all her history has looked ahead. The He- brews have had faith. They have given to the world its three greatest religious systems. The ritual, sacri- fices and services of the Tabernacle and the Temple were all prophetic of the coming of the Messiah. The Christian sees their fulfillment in the life of Jesus. We are summoned by the success of Moses and his rise from being a fallure to one of the world’s greatest men, to run with patience the Christian race. The great liberator, lawgiver and leader of the Israelites became so by obeying God’s call to service. No man will ever attain success, much less great- ness, unless he lives a life of obedi- ence. Let us put religlon first. God has revealed His will to us. We have our duty to Him and to others to ful- fill, that calls for us to lay aside every weight, that we have inherited from our ancestors, and the sin, which we have committed, to run with patience the race of life in self-denial, sacri- ficlal service, looking unto.Christ for leadership and assistance. The gen- erous sympathieg -of Moses and his quickness to redress wrongs by his courageous stand should encourage us to live a life characterized by the same spirit. #e met the intolerance of the people and the jealousy of his brother and sister by a spirit of self- renunciation that has met the world’s approval. If we walk in his spirit we will be seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness in all things and at all hours. T e TO END SERMON SERIES. Rev. Edward 0.
