The revivalist continued: “Every attempt to explain the mira- cles by natural law gets the explainer into greater difficulty than the accept- ance of what the Word of God says! “I want to draw some practical Iés- sons from this world: “First—The world is hungry. Jesus, when on earth, ‘stood face to face with the problem of physical hunger, for we read that He was hungered and He walked through the corn field and plucked long ears of corn and ate. As we face the modern world, We also face the problem of hunger, as has and will every generation—not only physical hunger, but spiritual hunger! “If one were to believe all the mag- azine articles in current and religious literature, you would think that the modern world is disgusted and indif- ferent to the religion of Jesus, I be- lieve exactly the opposite is true! “In no century since the morning sang together has there been more real, true hunger for genuine religion than this! ‘fhe world is not disgusted with religion, but it is dis- gusted with the worldliness and the rituals and the non-essentials in whioh we have lost religion! “Sometimes a so-called religious ob- servance may become a natural hind- rance to religion itself. “There are thousands who forge religion, and allow the forms of reli- #tOn to take the place of religion! And the forms must be destroyed be fore religion will perfume your life. “Second—The church is the only institution divinely authorized to feeu the spiritual hunger for Him, “You will notice that Jesus did noi feed the multitudes, He created the food, and Wsked His disciples to dis- tribute it. Jesus was the Creator— not the walter—at this banquet! Je- sus created salvation in His death on the cross, That is the food that will feed the spiritual huvger of the world! But the task of distributing it is in the hands of His human fol- lowers, “Third: Is the church drawing the hungry world to its tables? "There is no blinking ner dodging the fact that in drawing the masses to its doors, the ecburch Is facing a crisis, That there is a breach between » there is no doubt. You take a walk down Fifth Avenue, New york: In the districts of wealth and refinement the, church spires are aplenty. But as you walk eastward voward the river, they grow less anu less. “As the population becomes more dense and poor, the church buildings grow less; and the downtown church 48 & passing proposition. Gradually the older members move to the sub- urbs and with the withdrawal of Mnancial support, the support of the downtown cnurch becomes more dif- ficult. In board and trustee meetings churches you hear talk like ‘Cut your clothes to fit your cloth—cut down expenses to tally with receipts.’ “Great God! Ie this a cause and a time for retrenchment or advance- ment? Does a wise general reduce his force In the presence of the enemy? “Fourth: Need the church turn to other tables than those of the ohui “I answer, ‘They need not go away give ye them to eat.’ The church has the power to feed this hungry world!
