THE TRIE CHRISTIANITY
IT IS EXPRESSED BY PERFECT SERVICE V M OBEDIENCE. Dr. Hiram W. Kellogg Analyses the Nature and Enactions of the Sonl In Other Chorches. Dr. H. W. Kellogg, at the Central-avenue M. E. Church yesterday, preached an Interesting- sermon on "Obedience as an Expression of the Christian Life." "The willing and the obedient," said Dr. Kellogg, "shall eat the good of the land, as an ancient observation haa it; which, translated into the terms of to-day. would mean that he who gets at it and really does something shall secure the best things of life. This law is accepted by this active age as assured and applied to the realms of nature and grace. These times have little patience with anything that does not accomplish. It demands the practice of Christianity as the only worthy credentials. The best Interests of Christianity require that we do not overestimate this element. Christianity expresses itself in other ways as well, harmonious with the nature and functions of the soul. It Is emotion, declaring itself in love and Joy; It is intell' gence, expressed by faith and reason, as well as volition expressed in action. To recognize the value of each and all of tin sa functions is to save Christianity from degen ration and exalt it to its fullest value. A partial truth Is often more mischievous than a complete lie. On account of the peculiar temperament of individuals one form has been emphasized to the obscurity of the others. This is seen even In the apostles. The loving John accentuated love, while reasoning Paul emphasized faith and doctrine. To St. James works was the essential element. Each man was right in assigning special value to one element above the others so long as he did not in so doing diminish the importance of the other elements which he did not so fully appreciate. Endless confusion and contention has been caused by those who were reckless in their exclusion. Only when each function is recognized and all adjusted to each does Christianity flourish and bring its benefits to all men. Love is the steam power, action the machinery, while faith, as the rudder, directs all safely. The rudder la helpless without the machinery, and the machinery is worthless without the steam. There have been times when the church has attempted to run the ship with the rudder alone and again by machinery with little or no steam, and sometimes to manage the ship with steam and no rudder or machinery except, perhaps, the whistle; and the result has been no voyage, or, what was worse, explosion. Reformers have been those whose work it was to restore the neglected part, to secure harmony in the readjustment of all, then the ship moved to its destination. VALUE OF ACTION. Action has its place and it is my duty to accentuate this to-day. I have already presented the claims of love and faith. I can do this effectively If you understand that I recognize this as but one function. It is true that action is the final end sought. This is according to the laws of correct psychology. All emotion and thought finds its final justification in appropriate action. That education which fails of this is faulty and worthless. Professor James tells us that it is injurious to a child to awake emotions or excitements in the soul which are not directed to suitable actions. The thought or emotion which does not find an avenue prepared for its expression in work is a positive harm and leaves the soul weaker. So delicately haa God adjusted the organism that this injury cannot be avoided. It is well for those who are desirous of intense feelings in religion to take note of this and also those who crave more truth about duty and prhilege. The thought is to ha awakened and feelings stirred, but only to secure better service. The steam is dangerous if not applied to a work. "True action evidences the existence of the other elements love and faith. It Is not too much to stand with this age and demand it as the only satisfactory evidence of the true Christian life. This is according to St. James: 'Show me your faith without works and I will show you my faith by my works.' AH professions of faith and love may be discredited where corresponding results in practice are lacking. The Judgment of this age is not incorrect; its demands are reasonable. The finally convincing evidence of the divine in man la right practice. Jesus appealed to His works aa witnessing to His high mission, and obedience He- made the infallible proof of disciple. In closing the Sermon on the Mount, the constitution of His kingdom. He shows the inadequacy of all other tests. What an arraignment of mere intellectual and sentimental professions! The man who hears and 'does not.' is like the man building on the sand, whose great and elaborate structure is swept away by the storms sure to prevail. Pity such a deceived man. Obedience is the eternal test of faith and love. I would have you observe that it Is not action which is apaproved, but action in obedience. It is that action which is submitted in service. This may appear as a violation of our notions of liberty of action our American notion nevertheless it Is true that service is the most sublime and effective form of human activity. Service la the highest law of the universe and we are coming at last to acknowledge it. No man llveth to himself, and almost every man who lives, lives according to the command of others. To train a life for thia end is not degrading but glorifying. Jesus, the freest man that ever walked this earth, was most loyal to the Father and to the world. 'The servant of all.' Hla service was His joy. It was absolute and was according to the measure of His liberty. He was bound in the yoke of humanity, but His yoke was easv. This shall ever stand as the truest ideal of human action, and the angels can do nothing higher. 'Are they not all ministering spirits . OBEDIENCE NECESSARY. "Such activity guarantees the richer bless, ings of the land. This is sure in realms temporal and apirltual, which are really one realm. In the workshop or counting house this law will secure highest position. Many a boy has by it come to success. It is the story of all honored men and women. Attention to labora under the supervision of masters is the road to rewards. In the realms of grace God is as careful to promote. Look for a moment at the advantages of obedience. It la the quickest and and aurest way of entrance into the kingdom. 'Submit yourselves unto God, resist the devil and he will flee from you; draw near to God and He will draw near to you,' is the demand for unconditional surrender which turns aliens to citizens. It is the sudden way of settling doubts which disturb life so much. 'If any man wills to do my will he shall know of the doctrine.' There are bo many about us who are wanting to know God and rind Him of whom the prophets spoke. 'They are doubting, groping, skeptical, cynical, despairing, whose aearch la ending where it began.' The way to God is open always to the obedient. Again it aecurcs the highest advantages of grace. We talk much in these times of the Holy Ghost and His power, and many with deepest yearning are seeking this gift of God. Obedience will secure it to all. The whole land is open to the obedient. God can do nothing for us while He can do nothing with ua. The direct road to the favor and power of God Is by the act of the will. Difficulties without do not hinder us as difficulty within ua. Dr. 8heldon's book. In His Steps,' atruck a note which sounded through the church. Begin at once to do as He would do.' and in apite of a deep fallacy which pervades the book, this mighty truth saved It and made it popular. Paul, la giving the reason f r the effectiveness of his gospel in the city of Thessalonlca. where it 'Came not In word only, but in power and the HobGhost and much assurance.' assigned it to his daily life anmng them. His courage, faithfulness and gentleness wer; the cause of his gracious power. bediejice simplifies the duties of life. It clears the way of faith. Men have little trcuble to believe when they consent to live correctly. It secures constancy and stability of life. It concentrates the forces
of life and renders It effective. It puts life in the way of discipline which makes the soul strong. It is the surest proof against insincerity and hypocrisy. It turns the mythical into reality. It makes life useful. It Is the attachment of the soul to God, the slipping of the belt on to the live wheel It saves our religion from sentiment. It is the foundation of faith and the protection of love. It is also prophetic. We have moments ol wondering if we shall remain faithful, and if we shall reap the final results of grace. Loyalty answers, 'Yes. thou salt receive all. If obedient.' To Israel, in the moment of its awful doubt, when the land was near and It was the divine plan that possession should take place at once, and Israel was discouraged by eiirht unfaithful men. the
divine voice came: 'Only rebel not and I ; will bring thee in. Allow me to lead you; I will fight your battles for you; only be loyal and the reward is yours.' "The obedient soul need not be careful about results. Tlssot's greatest picture presents John the Baptist in the desertdesolate and alona. standing on a solitary rock, preaching the message of God. 'A voice crying in the wilderness.' There is not a man to hear it now. But the time will come. If the messenger remain faithful, that the cities of all that region will send forth multitudes to listen to this faithful servant. When Judson had preached and taught for eight years in Burmah, without seeing a single convert, he received a letter from a friend In Scotland asking what he might do to help him, and his heroic reply was. 'Send me a communion set, we shall need It sometime.' It came just two years later in time for the communion of the first convert." i CHRIST'S TRANSFIGURATION. Divine Myatery of Event Discussed hy Dr. Stanafleld. "The Transfiguration of Christ" was the subject of the sermon at the Meridianstreet M. E. Church yesterday morning. Dr. Joshua Stansfield, in beginning hla discourse, siid: "A great deal of mystery has been thrown around the transfiguration. We are told sometimes that silence best becomes us." Continuing, he said: "Ab to the genuineness of the event there is left no ground for doubt in the minds of any. In three gospels, the record is specific and clear; while John, in his gospel and epistles, has no uncertain references to it. Mark and Matthew, and Luke, too, are exact in their remembrance of the time as well as the place. It was six or eight days after a warm and extended discussion as to who Jesus reall was, and what manner of person the Messiah should be. So that as to the fact of the transfiguration there is positively no room for debate; It becomes us, therefore, to inquire rather as to 'Why,' and the 'What' of this remarkable phenomenon. There have certainly some ingenious interpretations .been given, some of which have furnished the grounds for beautiful morallzlngs and healthful injunctions. For instance, we have been told that tf.is was a divine manifestation for the encouragement and the strengthening of the faith of Jesus, up to the period of Joyful endurance of the awful sufferings and death to which He was going. He had ascended the mountain for prayer; the burden of His prayer is presumed to be touching the scenes through which He must pass, and the sufferings He must endure, and as He meditated and prayed, 'there appeared unto Him Moses and Ellas,' the two great ones of God's church who had never seen death, 'and they spoke with Him as to the decease He should accomplish at Jerusalem.' In parenthesis, we may say it is really perplexing to know just what comfort and help two who had never known death would be able to give to One who was facing it. But, to proceed: These showed Him. it is supposed, how that In heaven itself it was fully purposed and well understood and that Hie sufferings and death should be for the world's saving. All beautiful in its way, and as a kind of scriptural support to a certain system of theology; but hardly the interpretation to clear up very palpable difficulties and to command the assent of all. To some of ub, such interpretation presents a moral anomoly and shows a ddvine partiality where It should be least needed, for why should Jesus, the most perfect man, have such special manifestations and strenghtening, and thousands of His faithful followers never know such help? TAUGHT MEN MUST SUFFER. "Antecedent to the former query, it Is difficult to suppose that He who had heard the voice of the Father at the Jordan and had so frequently in His public ministry declared himself and the purpose of His life amongst men, namely, 'that He came to seek and to save the lost.' that, as the 'Good -hepherd' He would lay down His life for the sheep; and had indeed in earnest conversation with His disciples taught them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and he rejected of the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed; 'and after three days rise again,' we say. It is difficult to suppose that He needed such morai bolstering and support as this interpretation suggests. "These and many other wise and 'otherwise' interpretations of the sublime and unique occurrence have been offered, but would it not be well to look carefully to the whole setting and context of this remarkable event, and state frankly and clearly some things which the transfiguration of our Lord does set forth, and also some it does not. And first, if is not so stated, neither is there, we think, valid grounds to reason that this manifestation was for himself; rather, it should be carefully noted that 'He was transfigured before them.' And why before them? Both Mark and Matthew and Luke are specific in connecting the transfiguration incident with some important confessions and disclosures, six or eight days before. The scene we are all familiar with, for it Is a most important part of the gospel records. Jesus, with his disciples, is now on His way to Jerusalem. The days of His teaching are drawing to a close; He has shown marked attention to the 'Twelve,' for In His public utterances they wore present, and in private He has explained many things to them. And now thev are to visit the towns of Cesarea Philipp!, and on the way there Jesus asked them, 'Whom do men say that I am?' And they answered, 'Some say John the Baptist; some Ellas, and others one of the prophets.' Such was perhaps a somewhat general Jewish impression. 'But,' said Jesus, 'whom do ve say that I am?' And Peter answered. 'Thou art the Christ.' And then you know how upon such ringing confession and the Master said He would build His church. But Jesus then evidently went on to tell them things about himself as the Messiah, the Christ, which shocked their sense of propriety and right. He told them how that He must suffer at the hands of enemies and die shamefully and be buried; and th ir whole religious and moral sense revolted, and Peter said: 'Nay. nay. 'be It far from Thee, Lord, this shall not be sent to Thee.' BLINDNESS OF APOSTLES. "And so they did not understand Him. They said thou art the Christ, but they did not apprehend the meaning ond the mission of God s Christ. It waa the Hebrew Christ they still hoped for and held to, hence Jesus finally answers Peter's outburst, almost with passion, 'Get thee behind me Satan, for thou savorest not of the things that be of God. but of men!' "What transpired In the Interview is not reported, but each of the writers affirm that 'after six or eight davs Jesus tnnir with him into the mountains. Peter and James and John, and in their presence, and we believe, for their sake, there transpired the wonderful scenes we are considering. 'He wa6 transfigured before them.' With the circumstances thus clearly before us and with the reason for Christ's taking with him the favored and representative three one begins to understand the 'why' of this marvelous disclosure. It was most probably to disabuse the minds of his Jewish disciples of their erroneous conception concerning Him. the Christ. "Now just to what extent there was objective reality in these marvelous phenomena of the transformation, one is ill-prepared to say. Personally I accept the record as given in the three Byooptlc gospels, but I am fully convinced that the phenomena was pre-eminently and intensely subjective, and rightly so. for that was what was needed. Read between the lines of this very accurate record of these marvelous incidents and you will find much that was probably said in those intervening six days and now on this great night in the mountains beginning to take form "After that passionate outburst of our Lord unto Peter, how much the Master must have tried to make clear to His followers the real character and mission of himself and His church you readily begin to feel. But. how strong the prejudice of centurieB of Jewish teaching and thought' As the strenuous conversation proceeds interspersed by prayer by Jesus, with them and for them. Moses and Ellas, grandest exponents of the law and the prophets, appear; here they come into the great discussion as to why Christ should suffer to redeem and save, rather than subdue the world and reign by the majesty and might of His power. It was s great unfolding. Chriat appeared to them In a new ligbx

'His countenance did shine, and His garments were pure and white beyond all comparison,' and this, too, in the presence of their greatest teacher and prophet. Peter, possibly voicing also the mind of the others, said: 'It is good for us to be here;' not. perhaps, 'It is so good, so happy, so glorious to be here!' but, rather, 'It Is well we are here, and see it thus and know It thus.' VOICE IN THE CLOUD. "Then they heard the voice out of the cloud, in the words they never forgot, 'This is ray beloved Son, hear ye Him.' Not what Moses or Ellas may confirm, but, rather, what He shll say. 'Hear ye Him." 'And when they looked round about they saw no man any more save Jesus only.' This, then, is the import and meaning of it all: Jesus, the Christ of God is the fullness of divine revelation and the final authority In all doctrine and life. 'Hear ye Him.' This is true forever. "Is it difficult for you to accept that the only true way to gain life is by losing it, that the only way to keep life is to give it, that the way to largest achievement Is through self-abnegation? Is it hard to accept thia? Then, 'This Is my beloved Son, hear ye Him.' "Is it hard for us to accept the truth that the realisation of the best in life is even through the self-giving of the best? Then hear Him.' It has ever been so easy for sinful man, with his unbalanced passions and powers, to think that when God, or God's Christ, should come He would sweep the world into line of righteousness by the sheer majesty of His might and power. We see the inroads of evil, the awful aggressions of organized wrong-, and in their doubtings, and almost despair, men sometimes say with Carlisle. 'God doesn't seem to do anything.' We secretly long for a mighty display of divine power to clear the field, and swing everything into line for righteousness. "Ah! What we need is a 'transHgured Christ.' We need to learn that the truth which prevails in life is the truth incarnate; the word of the Lord that is victorious, is the 'word made flesh.' We need to learn that "the Son of Man must needs suffer at the hands of men. In social, political, commercial and national life we need the transfigured Christ, that we may learn that a man may so gain in this life as to lose his own soul, or that a man may so live and serve and give that he may save himself and others. This is an age of majorities. 'Majorities count, nothing else does.' The great desideration is to be on the winning side. It is madness, people say, to throw away yourself, or your vote, or your personal opportunity for any cause. Madness! Nay. verily, it is the sanity of sterling faith, a faith that will make one die rather than doubt, equivocate and deny. Men will never rise to the heights of heroes, successful living, until they see the truth of the 'transfigured' life, and so believe and except it that they will gladly lose with God and righteousness rather than win with men against them." a CAt'SE OF HARD TIMES. Rev. C. C. Edwards Dlscnaaea Matter from a Moral Standpoint. The Rev. C. C. Edwards, of Edwin Ray Methodist Church, last night used for the subject of his discourse, "Hard Times." He did not treat the subject in the economic sense, but applied to it a moral distinction. He stated that the various forms of immorality and intemperance caused hard times and that the solution of depressed conditions rested in Christianity. He named the saloon as one of the agents in bringing about hard times. He said idleness was another cause and that the class that never produces or produces only a part necessary to its support, is another source of financial depression. Extravagance, he said, is also responsible, and people who try to live beyond their means bring upon themselves hardships and failure. He said there were also material questions, such as are discussed by the political parties, which are offered as definitions and solutions of hard times, but he only wished to speak of hard times as brought about by a moral condition. People spending more than they earn bring on hard times, be said, and some forms of extravagance become dishonest, because debts are not paid and the creditor loses. If all the debts were paid, said he. all financial conditions would be greatly changed. He said there are too many people trying to keep the pace of a $2,000 a year salary on $1.500 a year, a $1.000 a year salary on $800 a year, a $600 salary on $500 a year, and so on. This manner of living, he said, brings financial ruin, not only to the spender, but also to those who furnish the money. He said people should live economically and save a part of their earnings, because it is right to do so, and it brings no hardship upon any one. MEMORIAL TO DR. PARKER. Rev. William Blederwolf, of Monticello, at Flrat Presbyterian. The Rev. William E. Biederwolf, of Montlcello, Ind., yesterday morning conducted a service at the First Presbyterian Church in memory of the Rev. J. W. Parker, who was acting pastor of the church during the absence of the Rev. M. L. Haynes. The Rev. Biederwolf was a classmate and friend of Dr. Parker in their echool days, and he spoke feelingly of the departed minister. The Rev. Mr. Blederwolf said that

he and Mr. Parker were born on the same day and met on the campus of Wabash College at Crawfordsville, when each was nineteen years old. They went through college and seminary together and became close friends. "God gave me almost an iron constitution," he said, "but Walter was not bo strong. I was one of the rough boys and played in the football teams while Walter had to atand on the outside and cheer. But we were joined in a close bond of friendship. While he was not hardy, Walter Parker was the gentlest, tenderest and truest man I ever knew." He said that Dr. Parker had a broad knowledge of all subjects and was a man of strong convictions and Intense earnestness. His friendship was always the same, he said, and he was generous to a fault. He said Dr. Parker had died too soon, and although he was cut off. his was a finished life, that what It lacked in quantity it made up in quality. S GIVES UP HIS PASTORATE. Iter. Thomas Smith Will Lahor Among a Benighted People. At the Union Congregational Church last night the pastor, the Rev. Thomas Smith, spoke briefly on why he is about to quit his pastorate and become an evangelist. As he is to give up his charge next week last night's sermon was not his farewell address, as he will remain until next Sunday. Last night's meeting, however, was held under the auspices of the Junior Endeavor Society. The little boys and girls occupied the choir and the front part of the church. In honor of the occasion the rostrum and pulpit were tastefully decorated with cut flowers and potted plants. Dr. Smith, in his brief sermon, said the reason that he waa taking up a new field after laboring in the congregation for three .years and a half, was that he had heard the word of God and was going forth to spread the word among the heathen. He said It was his sole desire to labor among those who had never heard of Christ's name or his teachings. No successor has yet been chosen to fill Dr. Smith's place. HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS.
