NO CHURCH WITHOUT EVANGELISM ,PAST0R DECLARES AT SESSION
"Apart from evangelism there would not have been a Quaker church and the churchXcan not live without It," was the declaration of Frank W. Dell, pastor of the Whifctier, Calif., Friends church in his address before the Five Years Meeting Monday. "Christianity does not exist to promote Quakerism, but Quakerism exists to promote Christianity. Hence, the need for evangelism. "Unity can only be conserved in developing the work as we adopt a big program of evangelism. But we must clear the way for this program. Churches are getting side-tracked off the main line of thought. An example of this is the controversy over evolution, making it an issue in the church. Evolution never should be and never, can be an issue in the Christian churches and they are not called upon to become either opponents or exponents of the theory of evolution. "It should not be so hard for a person to Join the Quaker church. We should remove some of the staid barriers and admit new members. We have raised a kind of Quakerism that is hard for an outsider to grasp and this must be changed in order that new blood may be infused into our ranks." Uses Blackboard. Mr. Dell conducted a part of his address from a blackboard drawing in ' which he pictured the bringing of the Kingdom of God to earth as a business Drooosition. The diagram out
lined the resources of the church, its investment, and the returns gained.
4 The resources, he said, are life, prayer and finance. "We have a limited idea of evangelism," said Mr. Dell. "It means more than mere preaching. It is the efficient utilization of all the resources of the church and to those who need it most, evangelism is the making of God real to those who do not know Him." In speaking of the function of social betterment, the Rev. Dell said the church should express the saving purpose of Christ in his work and that these social activities must harmonize with the teaching and preaching. In closing his address the Rev. Dell . commented upon the wonderful spirit of those present at the Five Years Meeting. "I want to consecrate my , personality to the high and holy call of making God seem real to men," he said. Fine Comments.Discussion of the subject in hand following: the address brought out
manv fine comments. W. O. True-
blood, pastor of the First Friends' church" at Indianapolis, spoke on the open door in the public schools through evangelism which the message of God should enter. He stated that Friends should work for the introduction of religion into the secondary schools of our country. ' Herbert Huffman, who spoke on the same topic gava bis experience in the hish school in Plainfield. where he conducted a series of evangelistic meetings. He stated that the social practices of the younger generation today are not what they should be and
that enly through religious training
could these evils be conquered.
Manv other discussions followed in
which the utility of evangelism in various fields was emphasized. Follow-
ins thf discussion period. John R.
Carey, presiding clerk, gave a brief talk in which he christallized the comment in the discussions. He stated that truly the Penticost had come to the meeting for this comes only when love reigns. "It is what we believe that separates us but whom we believe that unites us," he said by way of showing the power .of love. "The keynote of the Five Years Meeting is not evangelism but something back of that upon which all is builded the conquering power of love in Jesus Christ' Offer Recommendations. " At the opening of the meeting Monday the home mission b6ard offered recommendations which provided for machinery to keep in touch with Friends moving from one yearly meeting into another. These recommendations were extensive and were given the approval of the meeting. Homer J. Coppock. of Western Yearly Meeting introduced to the meeting, Neal Newland, head of the Fellowship of Friends Students who outlined the work of the organization and pleaded for the co-operation of the old friends. The fellowship is an organization of young Friends who are college students and their program is as follows: (1) To assemble statements of young Friends as to why they are Friends, (2) To gather from college presidents ttatements as to what young Friends can do to aid in activities at the various institutions, (3) To gather statements and data, through correspondpace.
