Preachers A Problem When Shepperdy Become Sheep Nowadays, Even as in Jeremiah’s Time, PeoPte AreJmperited by Religious Teachers W ho Miss the Message of (iod — Will a New Prophet Arise via the Radio?

■y WILLIAM T. ELLIS A delicate and difficult problem is posed for ua by Jeremlali. whose iweuty-five hundred-year-old words are aMigu.'d for this week'* study by the tnillloiiH of Sunday School members. It la the problem of the prea< her*, whom he calls prophets although, alas, the two woida are not always synonymous. We are habituated to handling the subject of preacheis respectfully. By fat the great mass of them are God's men, and godly men. They are set apart to deal with the sublimities, and to declare to the world the whole couuiei ol God They are sought for in life * crises. Tht-y stand at the bier of our dear dead. They are counsellor* In the tragedies of human souls. To them society looks as to the mouth|dece of God. Theirs is the highest calling, to be sustained by unfailing prayei and study of God's word. Preachers have been the shaping force in the life of our Natlou. They have implanted and sustained the growth of morality and democracy. They have been counsellors to congregations and guide* to j individuals. Their own sjiis and daughters have played an astonish-1 Ingly important part In public life. I In times of moi al crisis, their voice has been decisive. In a generalisation. it may Im* said that the character of the United States and Cauda is a product of the preach-1 ers. "Middlin' Preacher*" In "The Virginian ' one of the character* says. "A middlin’ dmtyr I* a imre thing, and a middlin' Igwyei Is a pore thing; but keep me from a middlin’ man of God.” I'ioliably the "middlin'' minister is our worst weakness, the man to whom preaching is just a Job. At the moment, we are concerned with the man in holy orders who is merely negative and routine; in whose utterances the will of God never blazes forth passionately; and who proudeutly create* no antagonism, heads 110 movements for greater godliness; lias uo spiritual vision, and merely does the muchaliical round of duties for which he draws his tmy ever hoping for a call to an easier, more profitable field. There are such. All of us know them I’crhaps it Is a fair de»< rlption of a "middlin’” preacher that he leave* u* where he found us. with no dearer vision of God. no step upward onto higher levels of daily living The community that Is afflicted with this type of preacher Is worae off than if visited by a flood, a hurricane or an earthquake. Fur it suffers soul-starva-lion. The Ear-Ticklers Jeremiah had blistering word* for the "popular" preachers of hl* day. who proclaim<*d only what the people wanted Io hear. They were the ear-ticklers of his day. as of ours; who listened for the people’* applause rather than for God's approval. Ministers of this type who usually gravitate to the citie*, are more inlerMted In press notice* than In conversion roll*. The*e are the men who (peak of their hearer* a* "audiences.” They would lather please i»eople than change them. Jeremiah's time was cursed with this type of "standpatter prophet*. who, iu the fate of impending national disaster from without, and gangrenous moral corruption within. cried. 'T’eace! Peace!" when there was no peace. With their dreams and unwarranted optimism, they lulled Iht people Into a false sense of set urtty. They left the idolatrous, corrupt and imperiled nation with a spirit of compiarency which disregarded the char counsel of God. Shepherd Besoms* Sheep Huth preather* were the vogue In Jeremiah’s day Then, as now. many prophets followed fashions. We are witnessing a wave of the sam< sort In our own lime: minister* as a mass swept up into cult* of pacifism •'•o< ial gositel” preach Inal »enlimenlal radicalism and Bibb denying modernism. The strange phenomenon of today s pulpit is that many shepherd* have .**•••••* •Th* Sunday Sthuol Lesson f*r May !• "Jer*miah Denounces False Prophets"— J*r*ml*h 23. < t

liecome sheep followers of an arid intellectualism, rather than God-led leaders of a flock. Their , "ear is to the ground," rather tbau j turned heavenward. Home of these false prophets are beatd on the radio, preaching iutolerance, class and race hatred, and even open sedition. Their powI er points the need for the rise of a - true prophet, after the order of Jeremiah, and of the other great Hebrew seers, who will command a national hearing for the clear commands of God. The radio is God's new trumpet, whereby the whole world may hear at once the message of God’s man for the hour, when he appears. No longer need he lie a voice crying In the wilderness. or a lonely persecuted, Imprisoned prophet like Jeremiah. He may set the ether vibrating with the explicit counsels of eternity That ideal seems distant in a day when the most impular figure on the radio is a wooden dummy! Cults and Preachers it would startle many a Christian to take a pencil and check up the religious advertisements iu the Saturday issue of a metropolitan I paper. I have known instances , wherein the advertisements of the various "cults" outnumbered those of the Christian churches. The egfstence of these Is an Indictment of the Christian pulpit I a* a whole. They signify that soulI hungry folk have not found satisfaction for their spiritual need* in the regular ministry and so have turned to yogis and swamis and weird esoteric cults. Equally aii Indictment of the Christian Church is the prevalence of crime and corruption aud debased moral standards in our time, ft the prophets of God, as Jeremiah pointed out. had been equal to their opportunity and to their duty, sin would not have been fortified by faith In the living God. Summed up. all of the foregoing means that the true prophets of God must rise to the occasion. There is a deep under-surge of vague religious sentiment iu the world today. Hut it needs the counsel and leadership of the ministry to become articulate and practical. This is a day of daxy for the widespread teaching and preaching of the Goapel of Christ, as applied to modern life. What a call It constitutes for young Christian* to enter upon a c areer of Sunday seboed leaching! Aud for the preacher it 1s a day ol destiny. Ills power Is greater than that of the politician, for be deals with the master motives of life, lie- must lie an example; "Like priest, like people;" he must be a voice, not an ec ho; a voice calling to the world in the certain terms ol Holy Writ: "This is the Way; walk ye In it."
