TELLS THREE GREAT CONDITIONS the Christian church are three, declared Rev. Alexander H., Abbott in his sermon Hunday morning Sunday morning at the Utiited Congregational church the sec- ond in a series of five upon The Church. Angwerlig the question, What are the conditions of entrance into church mem- bership? Wwhieh was his topic, he said that fellowship with the mind and spirit of the Mastér must set the standard fof all hufman fellowships, that there shall be a progression, and that through this pro- gressive fellowship there shall result re- demptive action. In part he spoke as follows: If the church were a fraternal organi- zztion or 16dge, whuse customs, rites and ritual were altogethér unknown to the uninitiated, the whole world would be claroring at its doors for entrance. Such, at present is thé nature of hu- manity ! A secret is #lways a challengs; an unknown quantity is always a nut to be cracked ; and a mystery has an elusive appeal to the curiosly inquisitive human fhind. We can almost say that men are of two classes—those with buitons and those without. So obvious are the badges, insignia and signs, thac we declare delib- erately and sometimes proudly that we bélong either to the charmed or the un- charmed. Man stands before every sentinel dobr, uttering 2 universal hope, “Please let me in. I, too, would enter into your feilow- ship in mystery Please mark that phrase, the fellowsh# in mystery. Is not that the secret of the power of every lodge, fraternity. order that whets the a; petite of modern man? This is the ap- peal, this the impetus that prombis mil- lions of men 1o clamor at the doors That they shall fellowship in the myste- ries How different is the church! Imagins the world, the whole world, knocking a: its door for entrance! We can imagine it. But we do not see Instead of the world besieging the it. chureh for entrance, the charch is im- ploring the world to enter, and one of the reasons is this: That even if the content with which the church deals is the mysteriousness of God and lifs, yet the whole world knows evervthing about the forms of the ehurch. For two thousand vears the race has seen the church at work. That work is not hid- den secluded, secret or unknown. Hymns and anthems, pravers and invocations, the forms for marriage and for burial: baptisms by Sorinkling or immersion: the'l celebration of the mass and the Fucha- rist; the whole ritual for worship the words of penitence and pardon: the doc- trines, tenets and ordérs; the ministra- tions of pepes .bishops. nriests, deacons and elders; the kneeling and the howines: —all these are the known forms of the church ; there is nothing hidden, nothing secret about them. What they express may be of eternal and mysterious mo- ment ; but they are the visible gestures of the church. A mere form once captured no longer remains a mystery. And for these many centuries, those outside the church membership as well as those in- side, have known the customs, rules, reg- niations, ritual that once were mysteries. All men know What is to be done. what is to be sung. what i to be volced at the proper times. places. intervals. —What prompted men to enter Into the great is, of Mithra and Cybele. of the Great Mother, of lodge, fraternity and Ku Klux voluntarily and desiringly. has gone from the church. We may say in one sense that men krow teo little, but in a much more practical sense that men know. too much, of these clothes, garments accon- terments, gesturés and matrons of thurch, to be overpoweringly zealous for entranee into its life. That is one reason why we have & world not clamoring for entrance into the church, but besieged by it; a world not rushing to its doors. but the doors imploring a world; the church in the postuse of a suppliant, instead of the church in the Posture of a grarding sentinel. Now, the church has no that and forms of her fife inig unknown forms ahd customs, in order to capture tha imagination of the gaping outsid secreey is the only guarantee of her ex- programme istéiice, then she will gladiy die. If fellowship within her life is to be se- cured only by passing through subter. ranean gates and velled and secref apartments, then she will stop her en- | deavors. She will make no pretence of secrecy. Though she wili sav “Behold, 1 show vou a mysterv!

She bt In great mysterious truths leadings, in veiled thoughts, expectaneies, t tortuous ex- | verience ; but to the best of her ability | will she make these public, not private, révealed not hid, open not secret, known and understood and plain.

And She cries back to the world the world's tamiliar ery, giving It a turn of her own: “Come in! C in! Enter this fellowship in mystery Now, it is perfectly apparent that the man who hears tha: supplication wiil ask: “What must I do? What conditions are imposed? What are the rules of entrance?” These questions are natural and they are wise. They are the ques- tlons all of us ask, if we contemplate any new relationship. The church would not have it different. The church will answ- er as simgly ang as greatly as she can. The church Wl go back to Jesus to find His mind in the matter. This is what she finds. When Jesus began His ministry He sought for friends with whom he could work for the purposes Heé had in mind. Ohe day as He walked by the shore of Galilee, He saw two fish- ermen at their labors, casting nets into the sea—Simon and Andrew. There was something in them He wanted. He call- ed to them, “Come ye after M, and I will make vou to become fishers of men.” Something electric, inescapable, eternal, flached between them, and they became welded foréver to his life and spirit. They straightway left their nets and followed Him. These are the simple words, in Mark’s Gospel, of Jesus' word- ed call and the aisciples’ acted -answer. Thig §8 the church’s simple, direct, unhes- tatis i8¢ to the man who asks, what was ths eondition of entrance {nto the church of Jesus Christ? The church says to that man, “LiStén t6 thls on word of Jesus: ‘Come ve after Me and I will makKe you t6 become of men.’ The whole story of Christian life, and all the essential conditions of en- trarce into the Christian - church, are ‘written in that one word.” Now Jet us try to see what that word mesns. First it means that man shall ‘make feliowehip with the mind and spir- it of Chiist the sta umm.hfiu- sohal fellowbhigs. & gréat ‘word historic mysteries—this of Isis and Osir- | Klan—what proiipted men to enter these | the | shall change the known customs | H 1 | | { 1 | stopped. fastars. iof Charles F. Noves. | company OF ENTRANCE INTO THE CHURCH THe great onditions of entrance mto | that word “fellowship” is. Tt is the word of personal relationships. Tt is the com- munion of mind with mind, spirit with spirit. It is ail that man is to brother- man. 1t 5 all that man and God may Be to each other. What a word it is as markirig the first great step into the Christian church. That a man shall make his feilowship with the mihd and spirit of Christ the standatd for all his person- al fellowships. Doeg this sound unréal to vou on the outside of the church? Does it sound impossible? And if none of us wefe able to have communion Wwith & mind and soirit that has no visible body, even if they did nossess one two thousand years ago. But are we not do- ing that very thing day in and day out? We walk with men wé see, but evén more we walk and talk and think and act and live with men whém we have never seen. And shall thére be no fellowship with Christ? The second condition follows from the first Tt is this: That in the estab- lishment of this fellowshin a man shall titute a progression. Think of Christ's word again. “Come ve after Me, and T will make von to become” It is a becomming. Tt is a DProcéss. a progress, Wh it that we find so many church members losing the first freshness of thelr Christian faith, and giving so many evidences of paucity of spirltual accom- plishment : mean, usly, trivial, cynical, sinning, peonle? Tt is because they have Even Peter came to a denial, that is, he halted his progress. We think that Jesus was some necdomanceér. ! standing over a man with a wand, and saving, “Be thou clean for all time.” But Jesus knew the huwman spirit better than He saw that entrance into a fél- ip must be repeated over and over again. to lay hold of the increasing rich- ness that exists in every fellowship. You must come into the church 'once: but You must enter into its spirit thousands of times. if you are to know its life. The third conditibn of entrance into the Christian church this: That through the influence of this progressive fellowship vou shall enter into redemp- tive action. The whola purpose of Christ is to make men “fishérs of men;” to redeem them from low aims, to reclaim thelr arid souls, to life them from slime and dirt and dust into the region of the This means that we shall mot change our occupations, but use them for great ends: that the business man shall remaln a business man io lift the whole realm upon the lsvel of the rishtness of Christ : that the housewife shall continue her quties. illuminatlng them by the Mght of Christlan love. Here, then, are the three great comdi- tions of entrance into the church. All oth- erthings are subordinate. The ®acra- ments are the outward Symbols of the begimiing and continuance of these in- ner and more essential dedications. What difference doés it really make that a man belleves thus and so about the Qoctrines of the church, her modes, her forms, her gestures? It mmkes hone at all. The central thing is thai he shall fellowship with Christ, and szrow. and serve. Peter was not called because of any bellef; he was called because he was 2 man with whom Christ desited to work great ends. That s the whole story. Believe what vou want, but live with the spirit and mind of Jesus Christ. Go fnto the church on that basis, for the di- rection of the spirit of a man s the central thing. i B.
