| “Billy’’ Sunday Preaches On ] ““God’s Love for the lernoon & new sermon. The text wae from John 111:16 ‘For God so loved the world that He ;.vu-o His only begotten Son, that whoso Jever belleveth In Him should not perish d"bu( have everlasting life ¥ The Bible 1s such a complete system that if this nation were governed by no other laws than those found within its pares, it would be enough, It contains everything needful to know or to be done. Tt affords a copy for the king or for The president. Tt affords also rules for the subject, wounsel for the senate, for the governor or for the mayor, caution for the wit ) Acss. / || It requires an impartial verdict to be 4 [rendered by a jury. It tells children to honor thelir parents; It tells parents to provoke not their chil- Sdren to wrath; it gives a directory for -'\naamn; it 18 a gulde for funerals; it Reaches men how to set thelr house in Sprder to make His will supreme In thelr es; it appoints a dowry for the wife; It defends the rights of all and reveals wengeance to the defamer. First and Best Book. The Bible is the first book. It is the best book, the oldest book In all the world. To understand it and obey 1t 18 to be wise—to spurn it and reject it is to be = fool. It God provides salvation and man doean’t take advantage of it, then man ia to blame and not God. It ten’t God's fault that.man goes to hell. And yet a man will go around say- Ing that he len't getting a square deal from God when all the time God is giv- Ing him a chance to do right and save himself from slipping down the road to hell, It reminds me of & man who talked so much about the love he bore his wife and yet he boasted that she had worn the same hat for twenty years. Fine kind of love, that! some men profess for God better. There was another man who was al- isn’t much he had. And when he was asked why he had married her he answered that it wasn't because he loved her or because #he was pretty and virtuous, but because #he had the reputation of being the hard- est worker in the neighborhood, and the fellow to whom he told this rejoined that he knew a man who had bought a mule for the same reason. On the Firing Line. ‘The trouble with most men is that they don’t ¢hink of God until they get sick or on the flat of their backs. I take my hat off to the man who is on the firing line for God just as I take my hat off to you men here who were on the firing line for yeur country in the sixties. ‘The world doesn’t care a rap about Na- poleon of Jullus Caesar, or Hannibal, or any of ghose other old ginks who used to Juggle power and men's lives, but the world does care about the man who has Zone out on the firing line for his coun~ try. God appreciates a man who 1s on the firing lne for the flag of Jesus Christ in order to keep It waving as a beacon light ef salvation, and the Lord will re- ward the man who works and fights for Him just as you men fought and worked for your country when its days were darkest. A famous German once sald: “When a German loves, he gives.” I believe that is true of all nationalities. We measure love by our gifts, I know of a man who told people how much he loved his wife, yvet boasted that he made her wear the same hat for twenty years. That fellow’s love was all in words—not deeds, l ‘ways talking about what a fine wife It's the love that breathes itself in action that is genuine. Lincoln said at Gettysburg: “The world will little note or long remember what we say here, but it will never forget what we did here.” } We do not care for those who have ruled | us, but we Will never forget those who | have served us | 1 often think of that great American and Christian whose hands were hard- ened and whose face was bronzed by toll and who was poling a flat boat and working hard before he began to mount the golden rounds of the ladder to fame and success while the other fellow was sleeping off a drunk in & feather bed. “Biily”’ Sunday preached yesterday aft.] And the love that' d's enemy; 8in Is the great enemy human race » you ask what is sin?

In Chicago is a gang on the street cor- | ners that preach infidelity, tinctured with anarchy. Their arguments are very subtle; they evade the police; they say it God gave His son to die then He's a murderer and not fit to love, and that the Bible is not fit to be in the home. You go to some Grand Army of the Re | public post and tell that old father when the war broke out and his son enlisted, out and another son enlisted, that he ald not love them because he was willing | for them to fight and die for thelr coun- try—just tell that old father that the sacrifice of his two boys was no evideace of love—ses what he would say. The government penitentiary at Fort | Leavenworth is as much evidence of tbe [1ove of our government as the Unitod States mint. penalties life and virtue wouldn't le worth the snap of your finger. Amarchy oh Way, You let every man do as he pleasas, anarchy would prevail and we would have a red flag instead of the Stars and Stripes. I have no interest in a God who does not smile. 1 cannot understand all of God's methods of dealing with us. 1 cannot harmonize all of His laws with what 1 know in my soul to be His true nature, but I am not fool enough to spurn Him just because of that, God gave Hls only son to the world to dle for men just as your fathers gave thelr sons to their country to dle for it You made eacrifices for your coun‘ry and your country rewarded you. < will reward you for making sacrifices for Him, but He will punish you it you disobey His commands. Why, there are men in the penitentiary who are there for three reasons: 1) To keep you safe from thelr brutality and cookedness; (2) To make them good citizens, if such a thing is possible; (3) To punish them because they have dis obeyed the laws of their country. It God's laws are not obeyed, you may rest assured that you will be punished. 1 personally have no doubt that God will smite those who are unrepentant, and I belleve that He does right to smite those who disregard his commands. I bolieve in God's love for man, but I belleve {hat God should smite those who disobey His laws just as the government sends to prison the men, who disobey its laws. Love Withoat Law. I have not no use for the kind of peo- ple who have got the notion that all God has got for them is a great big Kkiss. Love without law is no love at all. It 1s a nameless thing that can't be talked about In descent men's homes. God loves men, but God wants them to obey His laws and when they don't they should expect to pay the consequences and not go wandering around and curs- ing God and crying out against Him, Why Does Man Need Saving? ‘Why does man need saving? Because sin surrounds us on all sides. We run against sin every time we move. Sin hurls us to the ground; it batters, it bruises, it mangles., “If we say we have no sin we decelve ourselves and the truth is not in us.’” . This old world for thousands of years has been full of lying, drunkenness, adul- tery, profanity and murder. Therefore we say the world is full of sin. Prove to us that these things do not exist and we will believe there is no sin. Sin is a terrible fact; the world is blighted, stained, cursed, ruined by sin. Lincoln often was discouraged as he Sin is the cause of disappointment, pain, shame, degradation and sorrow; sin is For J ete. These Three SATURDAY i.

Two minutes later he turned to tha general and sal, Now fire." “No!" sald the general. “It's too late, see tie soldlers exchanging arms with the citi- %ens?" Down went the throne of Louls | XVI, to the block went the king and | queen, away from the earth went the house of Orleans, all because the king sald, “Not yet, not yet.” (Copyrighted by W. | A.
