T4 Wun Sunday Traine—Beginning Sunday the ~Northwestern road will run | edgment of Him as such and “Dilly” Sunday preached Sunday on “A Full Reward" as follows A great many people suppose that after they have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior, made a public acknowl- joined a church, that that s all there is to a Christlan life. Well, there Is something more, that comes by way of experience 1 am one of the kind that belleves that there are consistent and increasing bless- Ings to be had if you pay the price, but it costs something to know the fullness' of God's power and to be able to have God answer your prayer. There is something more, and it comes when at last we stand In the presence of Him who, having not seen, we love. In 1T John, part of the elghth verse, I read “Look to yourselves that we re- elve a full reward.” The emphasis should be placed on the word ‘“‘full.” John seems desirous of impressing the followers of Jesus with the fact that there are rewards. There are those who will be satistied with just getting into heaven, and as Job says, “By the skin of your teeth.” John seems desirous of impressing the followers of Jesus with that fact, and he says “Look to your- sclves that ye receive a full reward.” Do your utmost and your best. You are not going to be rewarded on the basis of comparison. God fsn't golng to com- pare what 1 do with what you do. God won't fudge you by what Solomon, or David, or John did, but God is golng to Judge every man and woman wccording to his or her own ability. *Look to your- selves.” Never mind what T do. Never mind whether you can do as much as the preacher. “Look to yourselves that we recelve a full measure.” Reward is Promised. T am not surprised at all to hear John say in the nineteenth chapter of Mat- thew, “We have forsaken all and fol- lowed Thee, What shall we have then Possibly you have found yourself pon- dering over that same question. I know I have. I have sald many a time “Well, Lord, 1 have made great sacrifices for You. I have sacrificed the delight which and children. I have sacrificed hours | and nighta of sleep and nave had days o | worry and long nights or labor: I have | done a great deal. I have been in the thick of the fight. I have been on the me sick. I have no patience with them If there is one word on God's earth that s uttered In connection with religion | that 1 hate, it is that word “conserva-| tive" They say, “Mr. Sunday, this is a conservative community.

That means their church is a great blg dor- mitory; don't stir them up. 1 rd would as soon be pastor of the grave. Rute and Anti-Ra We have two crowds, the ruts and the anti-ruts. One crowd wants things don In decency and order, There are some people afrald of (nnovations, afraid of Introducing something, for If you dia you might get a fellow that would go to hell 1t you didn't. If I were pastor of a church I would put a brass band In front to play every night, and I'd give the devil the best run for his money that he ever had. Don't be afrald of innovations for God and God's truth. “They that | strive for the mastery are temperate in all things." Feels No Hatred. Every Sunday school teacher ang every officer must feel the responsibllity to do all in thelr power, now that these mect Ings are drawing to a close. 1 know what some people in Omaha think about revi- vals and about revivallsts, and especlally about me. I know all about that, but 1 want to tell you that I'll not carry with me one bit of hatred in my heart ngainst anybody. I have fought furiously and haven't dipped my colors to anybody: haven't bowed to anybody from Omuha, rich or poor, white or black. 1 preach God's truth. 1 know what some of you think about revivals. You might as well |bring a baby into the world, tle it hand and foot and fasten it to a cake of ice and expect it to live and grow physically 08 to expect that the new converts will maie any progress in religlous matters if they have to go Into a godless, worldly, &reat big refrigerator of a church.

Eo Into the pulpit he would be in the church parlors with 400 men and on their knees they would pray, “Bless our minis- ter, will you? Make him a soul-winner, Help him to awing for truth and right- eousness,” and he said that as he would preach he knew there were 400 men that would die for him and for Jesus Christ, | and while he was pastor of the church over 1,200 pressed their way to the king- dom and over half of them were men. Strikes at the Grumblers, I don't kmow what the power of the ministers who have served in Omaha has been. I don't know what the power of never was a man, there {sn't any now and there never will be a man who will senve you as pastor, but that that man's power for Jesus Christ will be multiplied if he only has a prayer behind him. But a lot of you will go to church and sit there and grumble and growl and go home and pick the preacher and his ser- mon as dry as you do the chicken on the platter for your Sunday dinner and then wonder why your church doesn't grow. I wonder why it doesn’t sink into hell, with a prayeriess, beer-drinking, dancing, card- playing crowd like many of them ha: Not Preaching for Money. , I can tell you of church members that haven't come to this tabernacle in seven weeks, whf haven't litted a little finger or sweat one drop to bring old Omaha to its knees. Then what right have they to claim anything from God? What right have you to walk up and in- ult God by telling Him you are His child when you have done all you can to pre- vent the success of thesc meetings? God pity such miserable people! If any of them ‘are here and have given me any money, come up and I'll give it back if you want it. You can't charge me with preaching for your money. If T was working for some fellow's pocketbook I wouldn't throw as many rocks or thir- teen-inch shells as I do. Why Tabernnele. Paul says: “This one thing 1 do." 1 tell you, I think that would be our state of mind If we only realized that people without Jesus Christ are lost. I tell you, the church s all wrong, by whatever name or denomination she s known, if she simply says, “Come and hear the preacher preach and the choir sing, and if you don't, why go to the devil.” That doctrine has paralyzed the activitles of This is what I call golng to the multitudes, and I have never seen the community that was willing to go Into their pockets to put up a tabernacle that falled to get a blessing. I have had preachers say “We have a church that holds so many.” 1 say, “Then get some other man; I'm not the one you are look- ing for.” I won't go to a town and hold a revival in a church, for several rea- sons. There are lots of fellows who will never darken & church, and therefore God has seemed to call me %0 be the apostle to reach the fellow outside, that the church never touches, and they moan and groan and sigh and they didn’t touch him, then when God Almighty had been pleased to honor me, they denounce me.

Go to the ola Bible and read it for yourself. One of the pro- lific sources of unbellef and back-slid- Ing today is a bottle-fed church, where the whole membership lets the preacher ible for them. He will go to the pulpit with his mind full of his sermon and they wii come to church with thelr minds flled with soclety and last night's card play- Ing, beer and wine drinking and nel reading party and will sit there haif asleep. Great God, it would take fo ty thousand Gabriels with trumpets to arouse a crowd like that! It's a hard thing for a man to be eloquent to a lot of corn shocks. If you want your preacher to be eloquent you have to be in sympathy with what he is trying to teach you, Secret of Earnestness. You will agree with me, in closing, that I'm not a crank; at least I try not to be. I h not preached about my first, second, third or hundreth blessing. 1 have not talked about baptism or im- mersion. I told you that while I was here my creed would be, “With Chris! you are saved; without Him you are lost,” Are you saved? Are you lost? Going to heaven? Going to hell? I have tried { the men you have here now 18, but there | to bulld every sermon right around and answer those questions and steer clear of anything else, but I want to say to you this morning, in closing, that it is the inspiration of my life, the secret of my earnestness. “Ye Know Not the Hou If John were here and I would invite him to preach, he would preach about the love of God. If James were here and I would say. “James, will you pray?' he would say “Faith without works is dead.” James would say: “Get a move on you." James would preach the Gospel of works. If Peter were here and I would say, ‘“Peter, preach us a sermon,” he would preach about the Holy Ghost. If Paul were here and I would say, “Paul, preach wu: a sermon,” and Paul would get up and talk about the resurrection. He would talk about Jesus when He comes to this old world. I would say, “Luke, will you preach us a sermon,” and he would talk along a similar strain, as you will read it In Acts. Now, then, I say to you, “Watch, for ye know not the day or hour." In Revelations I read: “Around about the throne were four and twenty seats and I saw there four and twenty elders sitting clothed in white raiment, crowns of gold on their heads, (I know some elders that won't wear crowns unless they get converted. They don't live in Omaha, these fellows I'm talking about) “I saw four and twenty elders, clothed in white raiment nol oleb Inive on their heads crowns of gold, and they | *MOKer and celobration at the University cast their crowns at His feet." That's a pleture of the glorified church. Here it {s the church militant; there it is the church triumphant. 1 sometimes think | here it is the church somnambulent. Here we call it the church militant, there | the church triumphant, where all things | have passed away and we stand before God to recelve the record of our labors and our tofls for Him there. Wha' a &rand thin That was a wonderful time, in 187, when the soldiers returned to England from the Crimean war and assembled on a given day in the Crystal palace, and the queen gave out, through her assistants, medals. Upon them were the names of the principal battles and sleges in the Crimean war, A man named Trowbridge, when a ball shattered one of his limbs, threw his arm mround a tree and supported himself, and another cannon ball came and shat- tered his other limb, and he fell They carried him, as they supposed, dying, to | marked the anniversary of the founding OMAHA, MONDAY, OCTOB e L —— the rear, but strange as it seems he sur vived the ordeal Whnen the awarding came the limba hadn't healed to enable him to wear wooden legs, and four of his comrades bore him on A | stretcher.

He always has some droll word for the newspaper men and “Bob" Mathews, his secretary, knows just how to take him. He bustled into the office yesterday with the quick query: “Is Mr. Sunday in?" about an hour of his time." “Well, he can't see you,” sald “Bob." “I might get him to see you for fifty- five minutes, but an hour 1s out of the question.” “All right, all right,” said “Bil; pretending to get angry. “As soon as one of you fellows gets to be secretary to a great man you think you're the whole cheese.” “Now, see here,” sald Mathews, also pretending to get angry and rising from his chalr, “as long as you were courteous get out, that's all. Come back when you're sober.” Thereupon “Billy,” with a grin, turned up the collar of his coat and went out muttering.
