8 THE OMAHA DAILY RBE MONDAY, JULY 24 18 SCORED BY REY. SAVIDGE Modetn Obristianity Roundly Densunced by a Pastor in the Pulpit. PREACHERS ALSO RECEIVE A ROAST Worship of Fashion and a Religlor Chesnr—Pastors that Bilppers Ing Business Preaching as a Pay- Nis Sermon. Rev. Charles W. Savidgo preached at the People's church last evening on the subject of *1s Modern Christianity a Fraud?’ He took the afirmativ poured hot shot into w preachers varticular and modern christianity in general. The follow ing is what Rev. Savidge said 3 “What is modern christianity? Tt is not that divine system of religion foretold by the prophets and cstablishea by Jesus of Nuzareth, Modern christianity i€ no more | Tike the faith that Jesus taught than the | paste diamond is like the real stone, but the sham is not really decciving many, for the soul detocts the false and cries out for the Christ of the New Testament, who was born ina manger, who went about doing good, and died on the cross for sinful men. Modérn christianity is a faith which has been manufactured to suit the unchianged hearts of a vast multitude in the present day. The modern church is the church of y,—I1 Timothy iii, 1 to arcd to give my reasons for my says, ‘Bo ready always to give 1o every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness ana fear. The Christ of holy scripture i s not the Christ commonly worshiped today. Matthew i, 21, says, “Thou shalt call nis name Jesus,for He shall save His people from their sins.! ‘Jesus of Na soul’s delivercr. and position. roth saves from sin. Ho is He changes character, “He also deals with the bodiesofinen. He feeds the hungry multitude, he heals the bodies of the aftlicted and restores sight to the blind. Jesus of Nazareth has not and can not change for He is God. “He also gives sure hope of Heaven. Hear the Apostle Paul ving out the words: ‘We know that if our earthly house of this tab nacle were dissolved we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.' Thousands have id with him: “To live 18 Christ, to sain,’ Now contrast the modern Christ with Jesus of Nazareth. Religious Julius Caesar, “The modern Christ is not a person, but rather a myth or au idea, He is sort of re- ligious Julius Caesar, who did wonderful things ages ago, but who does not help man in his agony and bondage now. ‘This popular Chuist does not change character. 1 know this by what I have scon and known of my- self. Inmy ministry 1 have kuown, just as every minister knows, that some were true | —the true metal has the ring that even devils | know—but I also knew that the great majority were still the slaves of sinful appe- tites and pussions. They were mak- ing_a profession of relicion without huving really gone to the Deliverer., “Men and women oan bo members ot the modern church and profess to be folloy of this make-beliove Christ and be just as tricky and impure as_anybody. The great majority live just as their neighbors do, only thoy profess to believe in Chivist and their neighbors do not. Jesus of Nazareth makes & man true to the heart’s core. e does not attempt to pass us for pure, but he enables us to be pure. This make-beliove christianity does not change character. Let me tell you what the street car men say anda I believe them, They say they would rather haul theater peoplo than church people, because somo of the people who ride to church on their cars on Sabbath are more full of tricks. They have to be punched for their nickles though they are carrying their bibles, and it the car does not stop exnetly at the right spot, the forced Sunday toiler is reported in many cases., “*You muy bo a follower of this sham Christ and ot even bo truthful. Later: years it is coming on mo with awful foreo thata vow taken at the altar of God is binding on the soul. Well, do you know that when 1 made up my mind three years awo, that I would keep tho Methodist Episcopal Disci- | piue, that church in this part of | the ' count through her winisters and mewbers. made fun of me. 1 shall not forget Bishop Nowman's words. 1 will now read you these rules aud ask you who keeps thein or attempts to do so, unless it be some bi fool like mysclf. “But I tell you God will hold men vows they make Him. He says iv is 10t L0 VoIV thitl 1o vow and 1ot pay. s truth in the inward part This sham Christ gives no peace or joy and wakes sport of the 1dea that Jesus of Nazareth can do anything for the body. They say hie quit the work of healing long ago. Well, Isay, if He has, Heis o sham, for He is God and changes 1ot. | Jesus says, John xiv, 12, *Verily, verily, I siy unto you, he that belicveth on Me, the works that [ do shall he do also; aud groater works than shall 1 because 1 go unto My Skeptics and infidels suy, *We do not see these transformations of charactor nor the sick healed. Wo want to things 1 do not biume them for demanding the demenstration of these things. Man is 0 made up thut ho withe evidence. These great s of what Jesus did long ago will not be credited much longer if His people are not oxamples of the divine work. - And this falso Christ gives no substantial hopo of heaven. A multiiule will fail in the final examination before tho throne, th popular to the better He de- ‘Doctrines of Modern Christinnity. “Again we notice the great difference tween the doctrines taught by modern ehris- tianity and those of Jesus Christ wero Lwo doctrines taught by Jesus which are very hittlo emphasized by the church of He taught that in ¢ to entor heaven we must have pure hearts and live holy lives. Is this all-inportant truth much sted upon today? 1 hud been in the min- vs before I eould define holi- * chers in the gospel allowed me be ignorant of the great, esscntial truth, and they even cautioned me against secking a clean heart, But when my soul-hunger drove me to God, He showed me the mean- g of those words, *Blessed ure the pure in heart, for they shall see God.' Oh! I came to sco the déep meaning of the ‘straight gate and narrow way.! “Popular christianity does mot preach holiness, but many ministers openly opposo it and say the experience cannot bo' lived on earth, Butthe bible suys, ‘Without holi- ness no man shall see God." “The other doctrine He spoke in tones of love aud awful warning was that sin would surcly bring its fearful punishment He did not poso as an artist yev He painted pictures of hell that no guilty soul can look at without a shudder. The modern church has ceased to preach this awful truth till hell is breaking out all about us, Notice too, the difference between the bible preachers and those of today. Preaching as u Snap, “They left all to follow Christ. But the ministers now find ull by following the Lord Preaching is a paying business -in other words it 18 a snap. Ministors now ave wmost successful business men. They own house: sud lands and loan money it exorbitant rates of interest. 1 borrowed money of one winister in this city and for seversl years paid him 10 per ceut in hopes that I might save my howo for my family, whilo a Catho- lic coachman only chiargea e 6 per cent. “Paul made tents for his bread, but many nodern preachers are modorn Shylocks, who will have their money or their pound of desh. Last winter I needed noarly §300 to olieve soveral cases of distress. | sat down and thought of ali the men I knew who would be the most willing to let me huve it Whodo you suppose I went to ~the minister No. A gambler, one of my neighbors, whom [ have kuown for ten years —who knows he » wicked and says, but who, thank God, is aeither a Pharisee nor ® hypocrite, That man gave mo the woney without security That gambler will not be saved uuless he washes his hands from sin and makes & di tact line for heave But I tell you some of the modern preachers will have to hustle, 00, Looklug for Golden Slippers. “I make the charge and I can prove it.that some of the mimstey of today is greedy for place and for gold. They use the tricks of the politiciad to secure tho best places. 1 kuove whereof 1 speak and, if necessa tan give names and facts. The ‘divine call’ bas come 10 be the loudest where the salary is the largest. The modern church, in order to pay the high salary of the ministry, has, in many instances, made merchandise of the house of God, selling the seats to the hign- cst bidder. This is business—it is worldly shrewdness —but the name of Christ h no ce here. In the mad scramble for money and place, the ragged poor have been turned from the places of worship. But perhaps their loss is small, for no man ever yot preached who did not preach sHim for Christ's sake. Edward Irving, the writer and actor said, “The missionary after the apostolic school is a man without a purse, without serip—without a change of raiment without a staff, without the cre of mak- ing friends or keeping friends—without the hope or desire of worldly good or fear of worldly loss —with the care of life—without the fear of death. He has no rank, country or condition—a man of one thought—tho gospel of Christ, a man of one purpose—the elory of God A 1 and content to be reckoned a fool for Christ; a madman and content to be reckoned so for Christ “T'his 18 & true picture of the real minister of Jesus. The modern machine-made thing s very different. God's ministers suf: fered“persecution, The feet of Jereminh sunk in the mire; Daniel was thrown to the wild beasts, John the Baptist was beheaded and most of the apostles suffered martyrdom, Read the record: IT Corinthians vi, 5: 1T Corinthians xi, %), 4; J said: “They who will live godly in this present world shall suffer persecutions,’ gony Over High Five, ‘“The Lord's ministers had an agony for souls, Ixodus wxxii, 82; Romans ix, 8; II Corinthians v, 11: Acts xx, 31. Modern christ- ianity may get in'an agony over progressive euchre orhigh five or a lawn soeial, but I tave nover seen one of her churches spend a night in agoaizing, prevailing prayer over the souls aropping all about us. “Within the past four years, since 1 come to seo theso things, 1 have been cau- tioned by ministerial friends in this city to take 1t cool—not to agonize over lost souls. They say: ‘Better go away and take a good church and get a fino salary.’ And more than once, under their advice, I have almost stumbled and tottered to my fall. But Ican- not o back—if 1 do it will be at the peril of my soul. There is something awfully wrong in'the modern church and ministry. f the birth pains do not come on the mother the child cannot be born. Dignity of the Olergy. “Our ministers are stiff and dignified, but T believe Jesus could have been appronched anywhere. Brethren, let us bo dignified when are dead, not when broken hearts need binding u “Our ministry preaches in churche: followers of the NaZarene went everyw preaching the word, “The apostles had the Holy Ghost, having received him in the upper chamber after a ten days prayer meeting. Now, too often, the word is without life and power and the so-called man of God has not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost, “God Almighty send the tongie of fire on the ministry burning up selfishness and churchly pride and making soldiers instead of cowards of Thy workmgn! For God says: ‘Cursed is he that holdeth back his sword from blood.” “In conclusion T say modern christianity isa fraud. If we wish to be useful in time and saved i eternity, we must be bible Christians. ~ We must’ go by the bible through tho door of the new birth holy walk with God. Jtisu costly thing to follow Jesus; it will ta ou have. Don't lie; don't hea hy None but the pure in heart shall see God.” - AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA. i the ere How Sunday Was Spent in the Progressive Southern Suburb.

The secretary announced after the meeting that nothing for publication had been transacted. It was learned that the principal topic . dis- cussed was the discharge of Sullivan and McManagle from the stock yards switch crew. These men claim that they were let out simply because they were five minutes late in showing up for duty. The other sido of the story is that the men thought Tun- gate wi ake charge of the yards that night and these men had made up their miuds not to work with him. When they discovered that Tungate was not in charge they showed up ready for business and were told that their services were no longer do- sired. Mr. A. L. Lane of Grant county, Oregon, arrived at the stock yards on Sawurday even: ing with two car loads of horses. Mr, Lane suys that o can get as good prices for his stock at the South Omatia yards as he can in Chicago or any other market.

Mrs. Zeman had been advertised to speak about the general sondition of women in her native land, but this was due to a misunder- standing, and besides, tho lecture adver- tised is considered by its charming deliverer 100 long a one for a hot night, And she there- fore wave an informal talk on the subject first stated, o spoke at length concerning the intro- on of christianity into Bohemia | ro the other countries of Europe had accepted belief, maintaining the claim t Bohemia was the originsl Protestant ized country on the continent, and holding, further, that the christiamty which no embraces all of Kurope was disseminated from Bohemia Mrs. Zeman took tho ground that Lutheran Protestantism was directly tathered by the martyred John Huss; that Martin Luther was merely a disciple of Huss, and has received the credit for promulgating the doctrines of which Huss was really the autho of, she believes in Huss as the original apostale Roman Catholic faith in Europe. After tracing the history of the prog of protestaniism in her country up to the present time, Mrs, Zeman repudiated the opinion which she claims obtains in Americ; that Bohemia is in need of missionaries, s tang forth that Bohemia is as thoroughly im- bued with protestantism as any other coun try on the face of the earth, ana that all that stands in the way of its complete con- version to protestantisim is the opposition of the pope and the obstacles placed by the Austrian government in the way of mission- aries, i sl LOCAL BREVITIES. the feast uesday being of St. James there will be o solemn high mass at St James' orphanage at 108, m.
