R. N. Gilman Fears Return' of World to 1914 Status A warning that present religious where people overem- e the importance of creeds and s and denominations and inter- pretations and pay too little attention to the basic fundamentals of Chris- tianity, will leave the world in the same position it was in 1914, was sounded by Rev. Raymond N. Gilman, Stanley Memorial church, yes-| morning. The sermon has created somewhat of a stir among| those who heard it, and is said to be| one of the most powerful the minister has delivered in his two years in this| city. He sounded a warning of the dan- ger of replacing essentials with non-| essentials and pointed out the con-| fusion which must arise in the mind of the unconverted Chinesc who learns that there are 80 different Christian denominations with mis- sionary societies at work in his coun- | try and 150 denominations in Ameri- ca. The sermon follows: { “It is on an occasion of this kind | when we are about to sit around the | Table of our Lord that it is well to remind ourselves of the fundamental things which he taught his disciples and has passed on to us, There is &l- ways a real danger in any organized controversies, | B.

GILMAN, movement of replacing the essentials with the non-essentials; and the far- ther in time we get from the beginnings of that movement the greater the danger substituting shams for realities. “The great Christian which had its beginning nineteen hundred years ago, has at times fatd the same errors which other religlous movements have found themselves the victims of. Did you realize that in this country alone there are a hundred and fifty differ- ent denominations and sects, and that in China there are today 80 different Christian missionary societies at work? Can you not imagine the utter amazement and confusion of the Chi- nese unbeliever when he is confront- ed by 80 different brands of what he supposes to he the same thing? Is there any wonder that the religion of Christ hasn't made more rapid head- way in China and other parts of the world when wg take into considera- tion these factd? “It has been said by a veteran Con- gregational clergyman that the Chris- tianity of today is not the Christianity which Christ taught, but that it is more a mixture of paganism, Juda- ism, medicvallsm and Christianity. Perhaps that is somewhat overstating the case, but I do not think that Christianity as believed and practised today is of the pure, simpie unadul- terated variety that Jesus taught and ived We lhave tried to make Christianity too much a system of doctrines and creeds, As Jesus taught it is not a creed but a life When Jesus was walking along the sea of Oalilee and saw Peter and Andrew fishing did not ask them to sub- scribe to any particular set of doc- trines, but he asked them to follow im, and he would make them fishers f men. And they left their nets and followed hiw He did not ask them he was ‘born of a vir- en at that time that he Son of God." pray tell, in the four gos- are the accounts of the teachings of Jesus can you nything about denominations, or es, or altars or cre you find that he lald spe- upon the particular day be set aside as a rest to Him 4i4 1t er the Sabbath happened e first, second, third or week, a5 long as one for as He said “the for man and not and that “ even away enterprise, only some to believe ite and find hnre should What difference for 1 of Ma of the 1t me that this ntroversy which is going on in cer hes of the Christian church altogether 160 anxions on the part of ecclesiastics. Perhaps, however, it will eventually help to elear the at- mosphere of certain non-essentials to in Christ in one’s supreme Lord und Saviour. That is the one thing Iful, in my estimation. After ail me Christ himself fs the great miracle, but the exact manner of His pirth is not the primary considera- 1t is the effect of the influence of His spirit and teachings upon the ives of those whe ve accepted Him their Lord and Leader that are the rongest evidences of His divinity “The question then arises: What were the things which Jesus empha- geems o whole brax is causing concern much cer tair Bronchitis - exhavusts vit tu SCOTTS EMULSION restores strength o} | | other, ized in His teachings and His Ilh".‘f “There were a number, but all of {hese could bo summed up under one | heading, that of Love. When Jesus| was asked which was the greatest of the commandments His reply was: | “Thou shalt love the Lord, thy Gfld.i with all thy heart and with all thy| strength, and thy neighbor as thy self.” Thereln you have His whole teaching in a nut shell. And w)mni He was giving final instructions to His disciples, not long before He was to leave them, how did He againsum up His teachings? Agaln it was in the word "‘love.’ ‘And this s my commandment that ye love one an- even as I have loved vyou. How simple it all is, and yet if it is lived out in all of one's varied rela- tionsh it is not any easy formula, for it means hardship and pain and sacrifice and suffering. In his own eaperience it meant death, and in the case of most of those to whom hel was speaking it meant death. “And not only was this the supreme | teaching of Jesus, but His very life was its highest and noblest embodi- ment. Jesus rose to His loftiest and sublimest In the very life that He lived here among men. Even if He had given us no teachings, the rec- ord of His life of kindliness, strength, | patience, hope, faith and love would be sufficient. His very deeds and at- titudes speak volumes more than His teachings. Jesus lived supremely the | life of love. It was His love for men | that sent Him to the outcast and the | moral derelicts of His time. It was His love for men that sent him to/ the homes of the poor and the tables| of the weli to do. It was His lovel for men that made him hate the things which made mere animals of them. It was his love for men which made him so patient with those| disciples who were so misunderstand- | ing of Him and His real deepest pur- | poses, You know it is one of the hardest things for men even today to understand that some one has done them a real favor just out of the goodness and love of their hearts, exemplifying the Christ spirit. This spirit of love which Jesus showed for all men and which enabled Him to| understand them so perfectly was misunderstood by those of Jesus' day, and is it surprising, therefore, that it is also misunderstood today? “The spirit of love is not weakness and softness, It is the essence of| strength. It is that which the world needs more than anything today, if it is to be saved from ruin, for love means “doing unto others as we would like to have them do unto us." And that is not an easy thing. To put ourselves in the position of the other fellow and imagine ourselves| under the particular circumstances in | which he finds himself, that is ex-| tremely difficult. To do that means| sympathy and sympathy means love. “And uniess this very thing is done | in international relations we are go- ing to find ourselves in the same po- sition that Kurope found itself in 1914, The national mind must be replaced by the international mind. The spirit of love, sympathy and un- derstanding must rige above and sweep away the natural barriers of racial wnd color antipathy, of differ- ence in language, custom and tradi- tion. In short the religion of love as taught and lived by Jesus must be | the great panacea for the world’s ill “And how are we going to have their spirit of love and perfect un- derstanding among the nations of the| carth unless we have it first in our| individual relations? And that is where each of us can have a very| direct part in helping to bring about| world understanding, for the spirit of love 18 too often sadly lacking in our | own personal relations and attitudes. | “Now love, as Jesus taught it, is not passive, It is active, as is God's love for us. It was so active and so vital that He gave His only son. No, if love is a foree it is active, L3 |l‘ love which will not give peace to the | father of the prodigal until that] prodigal has returped to his father's; house, It is love wlhich sends forth | the shepherd out into the night and | the storm to find the sheep which has| been lost from the fold. | “Oh, my friends, how simple, then, is the faith and religion of Jesus.| Perhaps because it is so simple that it is so constantly misjudged and mis- understood. We who are about to gather about the Lord's table in memory of Him, and who call ours His disciples, let us at thie time, on the very threshold of a new calendar | year, make sure that as our religion | we are not carrying about a lot of| creeds and ecclesiastical customs and | traditions. If we are doing this I am sure that we are finding the burden| extremely heavy. Let us, then, drop| al lof these extra trappings and Ivl’ us put in their place the religion of love which is the religion and faith of Jesus. Such a religion is not burden, but it rather helps us tol vear our own and the burdens of| others. It sen us forth with smiles| upon our faces and with heart that are full of joy and peace. “Let us, then, at the beginning of this new year, open wide the portals| of our hearts and let the love of Christ take full possession of them And in the spirit of His love let us| Jabor and live right here upon the| carth the life which is eterna And this is my commandment that ye love one another, even as I} | have loved you.'"™ | $1,500,000 FIRE LOSS AT CALIPORNIA RESORT Piers, Theaters and Hundreds of Amusement Concessions De- stroyed at Ocean Park.
