ui'.'iv I u < urn Ippiwp ||IJ pp!^a*g^«pw< ■ THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. SATURDAY. JUNK 1W. MY GOSPEL By REV. DR. JOHN E. WHITE, Pastor Second Baptist Church T HREE times did the Apostle Paul use the expression "My gospel.' We are not to understand that he Is speaking In discredit of the go* pel, according to Matthew or Mark or Luke or John. These are not the words of a bigot. Paul was a large man, larger than any other of his contemporaries, but the gospel was larger than Paul. Other apostles had their gospel, their revela tion and experience of Christ, and theirs was not In all aspects Identical with Paul’s. We need not be afraid to admit this. It Is the glory of the gospel that no one man comprehended Christ exclusively. With different per sonalities and each from hla own pe culiar point of view, the disciples looked at Christ and heard Him. We should therefore expect to find Just what we do find, four gospels, neither one of which taken alone tells all the truth about Christ. The West Indies are a long chain of Islands, Cuba, San Domingo, Porto Rica,- Jamaica, seem ing to bo widely and Completely sep arated from each other, each one a lovely tropical Jewel resting on the beaming I bosom of the’sea. But If vou look below the surface of the ocean you discover that each of these Islands Is bound to all the others, that In fact they are only the high points of a single coral mountain submerged. So that whilst each Island seems to be separate, all rest upon and are a part of the vast and substantial unity which lies far below. It Is so with the gospels, . 1., They John’s gospel and Paul's gospel, are In essence and unity one gospel. When Paul says, "My gospel," luld of "My speaks as a traveler wou _ ship" or "My train.’’ It was his gos pel. It was the means of his salva tion. It was his because he was es pecially instructed In It. It was his because he had been divinely and defi nitely entrusted with It. It was his because he loved IL It was his because he lived It. It was his because he suf fered for It. And supremely Paul means that what he calls "My gospel" was his because It was truth which he realised as truth. He had no doubt about what he calls "My gospel. He could preach with the ring of certainty In his heart. The man who could say. "Kor me to live Is Christ." "Neverthe- •“ }* *» not I who live, but Christ that llveth In me," could say, "My gos pel. without challenge. Your Gospel. Every Christian ought to be able to say "My gospel." We often felicitate ourselves that we have the gospel, that we have the Bible, and we assert oft- times what Is not worth asserting. The only gospel a man has In the real sense Is what he has In him. There Is an expression In our language—Blbllola- try—the worship of the Bible as a Book. It 1s a criticism especially lev eled at Protestants. Let us be warned sufficiently to remember that the word must needs become flesh before It was powerful. We know of Christ by the revelation In a Book, but we know Christ In salvation only by the Holy Ghost. Gospel preaching and gospel wit nessing are by an Incarnation. At least that was what Christianity was to Paul. Emerson's remark holds good. "Only so much do I. know as I have lived.” If a man cannot say "My gospel” It may be questioned If, with all possible acquaintance with the Bible and tech nical knowledge of the things of Christ and all adeptness In handling 8cripture, he can’ teach to another the way of salvation. In the annals of the South ern ministry there la a notable Illustra tion. There was a young man gifted as few men are—a genius. At the present moment he Is before the public winning favor as an orator, author and playwright. He entered the Chris tian ministry. He rose like a meteor. He was the pride of thousands. In less than five years he forged his way by quick bounds to the center of public attention In New York city, where he preached to vast audiences. Then a resounding crash. He' flung off his ministerial calling. He Is out of the pulpit forever. His own frank explana tion la pathetic enough. He said he found himself preaching hla father's theology and th* experience of ethers, and was too honest to keep It up. I have thought of that man. He rode triumphantly across my boyish Imagi nation. I have thought of him with a R ang of personal sorrow. Oh, I wish e could ha ooooooooooooooooooe o o O "According to My Gospel.”— 0 0 II Timothy 11:8. 0 O’ O 0O0OO000000O0OOOOOO to everybody that God Is not angry with men, but Is reconciled, and that they must be reconciled to Him If they would be saved. In order not to be misunderstood, let me make a dla. tlnctlon not very generally observed. could have said "My gospel.” "Should all the forms that men devise Assault his faith with treacherous art He'd call them varieties and lies, And bind his gospel to his heart." Good News. The most searching question that Is ever asked one Is the question I put to myself: "What Is my gospel?" Now, 1 dare not In earnest answer to that self-scrutiny presume to claim that I have a message evolved In my own consciousness or received as a personal revelation which 1 may hold In a sort of spirited patent-right. But I have ”my gospel" nevertheless. It Is what I would tell men If my life was crowded to Its last hour of opportunity. If you will examine the 18th nnd 18th verses of the 6th chapter of II Corinth ians, you will find the authority for "my gospel." "God hath given to us the mlnstry of reconciliation; to-wlt, that God was In Christ reconciling the world unto Him self. not Imputing their trespasses unto ’them.’ And hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.'' The first fart about "my gospel," the fact that determines the mood and •plrit of Its ministry, the fart that I must not at any time neglect. Is that It la good news. It Is the glad tidings of the grace of God. In the privacy of a heart-to-heart corre spondence with his Intimate personal friend, Paul once let fall a rare sen tence. He called the gospel "the glo- My gospel nnd my theology are not 'M I. My theology Identical. My theology Is such sys tematlsed creed of God and His work ing as | may have. It Includes the gospel, but Includes, In addition, a sys tem of doctrines and a aeries of truths that ran not be called "glad tidings." There Is truth with respect to sin and retributive Justice, for Instance. It Is truth older than the revelation of Christ. It was truth before Christ came. It would be truth had he not come. I can not blink that truth. I must tell It to men, however solemn Its Import. But when I tell It. when I set up the awful background of sin's guilt and the dark shadows fall over the souls of mrn, I must hasten then to my real ministry—the ministry of the good news. It will help us some, link, to keep our minds well back J thli rlous good news of the happy God." The music of the gospel Is written In the key of Joy. I have been com missioned, If I rightly appreciate the Christian ministry, to preach .this Word of reconciliation, to proclaim aa powerfully aa I can everywhere and with the primtlve preachers and their mod* of preaching the gospel. They acted like men who went forth as heralds. They were sent, not so much to educate, to dispute und argue, aa to proclaim tidings, to bear testimony to facta. Plainly, the main message, the passionate business of the church, was to tell the story of Jesus and Ills love. It has been pointed out as of some significance that when Christ delivered what la called his Inaugural, he took for His text a paaaago In Isaiah Ixl, but when he read It In the aynn- gngue, he omitted one statement of the prophet, "He hath anointed me to preach the day of vengeance of our Ood.” In I.uke Iv, you may note that omis sion If you will, and attach to It aurh Importance aa you choose. It coincides with thv spirit of Chrlst'a ministry In the main, at least, that He did not apply those words of the propli- self. He did not, as He aald, To the Corinthians, Paul declared: "I determined not to know anything among you save Jesus Christ and Him cruclfled.” He probably did not mean that he would make no reference to the awful fact and the still more aw ful doom of aln. But he did mean that what he skid about this or other matters would be overshadowed by the cross. When last Sunday, I preached to you on the Judgment, I wondered afterwards It at the last I had been fully loyal to "My Gospel.” It la bun gllng work that misses the chance against such a gloomy background of that has the right to the whole stag?, t the no fact so great and Important In ... calendar of Judgment that the love of Ood should not go up Immediately be side It. ‘if we must speak of Judgment, let us evsr have close at hand the gospel Indlg- to take the sting out of our nation.” By the space of three years, I ceased not to warn every one, night and day, with teare." In the biography of D. I,. Moody, w» are told In hla own Words of the It dated from the day In which he learned to place the love of God before everything else, and almost Instead of everything elee. In his absence, he allowed a young Englishman to preach lie returned, he asked hla "How Is the young Englishman com ing on? How do the people like him?" "They like him very much. He has preached two sermons from that vsrse of John, ‘God so loved the world that He gave hla only begotten Son, that whosoever belleveth In Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' And I think you will like him, though he preaches n little differently from you. He tells the worst sinners that Ood loves them." "Well, then, he Is wrong!" said Moody. For seven nights, the young Eng- erted have Into Ith Ith he he llahmnn, Henry Mnreh that one text. He ci Moody. "He Just beat that tni my heart," he said, "and doubted It since. I us that Ood was behind th a double-edged sword, ready to him down. Hut I have got done that, t preach now that Ood Is h him with love, and he Is running from the God of love,". "My goopel’’ Is the gn...| MW i sinner who Is running away fro: God of love. ' Several years ago, a -party was vis iting the famous Mammoth Cave of Kentucky. A lady became detnrhod from the party and was not missed until all were out In the open air. The sun h*d act. They returned nnd relied In vain. That night and all next day, the old negro guide scan li ed for the missing woman. Imagine the horror of her situation. She wan dered In the darkness, stumbling and falling and ovsreoma with tenor, llgly shapes fashioned themselves on every dripping wall. Ilsr footsteps in the alienee sounded echoes of despair. Her reason was almost gone. During the second night of Ills search, the old negro raught right -f her and pursued. She saw his face In the glare of the torch, and It »iw -i» the fees of n fiend to her distorted Imagination. She fled screaming. He caught her at last, as she lied from his receiving hand. She fough: with all her remaining strength. Hut I he strong srins of the guide held her till she was at last reassured and brought safely to her friends. The sinner la lost. He la beside him self. He does not realise that Ood has rome to save him. But when h- hems anti believes II, he Is recon-i'- I and saved. Are you reconciled to Ood? Th- n It Is because you will not believe tha gospel of Jesus Christ. GOD’S. ALL-EMBRACING FATHERHOOD By REV. E. D. ELLEN WOOD, Pastor UniverwoHHt Church T HERE U a certain matertallatlc philosophy which declares that God exists only In the mind of him who believes In His existence. There Is no profit In a discussion of the atabllty of this proposition. The very existence of a belief In God, In any human mind, la a sufficient and conclusive proof of Hla existence. Here Is a thought which can not fall to bring comfort and assurance. Whence came this belief In a supreme power upon which the soul must depend for sustenance and progress; a belief so general, so universal, aa to mark, un mistakably, the line of cleavage be tween the man and the brute? It came from no other source than the heart of God. The belief In God was breath ed Into the soul of man by the very spirit of life which gave him being. Rellgon, under whatever name and In whatever form, la but the aoul'a unceasing effort to define and to In telligently apprehend God. The development of religion, through all the centuries of man's constantly growing Intellect, has witnessed many grotesque and unworthy conceptions of Deity. Through successive periods of ghost, nature and ancestor worship, civilised man has been led. In his search after a knowledge of God, to that conception which was In the mind of Christ, the conception of Deity as a father, absolutely Impartial, unfail ingly Just, Infinitely kind and loving. It was to this conception of God that Jesus sought • to direct the minds of men, and the early Infancy of the form of religion which bears his name was fed to strength and purity upon this truth. But, alas! “men have sought out many Inventions." The Deity described In the articles of belief In some of the Christian sects today heavenly Father, who received the adoration of the man of Naxareth. The supreme effort of the Unlver- sallat church Is not to form a new re- God. It Is simply to call men back from their unhappy theological wan derings and direct their unsatlsfled oral teaching of the founder of Chris tlanlty, an unhesitating faith and trust In the universal fatherhood of God. God Is the father of all men, re gardless of race nr color, regardless of physical, mental, moral or financial condition. Even as His rain falls alike upon the Just and the unjust, so His love goes out, unfailingly and Impar tially, to' nil of Ills children, whether they be disobedient and wretched or obedient and happy. His chastening love pursues relentlessly the erring one, nnd will not forsake him. The punishment, Instituted, not from mo tives of revenge, but for purposes of salvation, must persist until, with contrite heart filled with genuine re pentance, the wanderer turns again, with gladness, Into the path of right- BAPTI8T.

The God drhom we adore as s universal and an all-powerful Father can do no leas than this by the children of His own creation, “rihall not the Judne of all the earth do rlffht?" The love of an earthly parent Is not withheld from his persistently disobedient offsprlnff. The parent-love, domlnutlnc Hie heart, la not destroyed by the Ingratitude and disloyalty of the rebel. It puts forth unusual efforts to reclaim nnd reatore the wanderer. Bhall we believe that God, whom Je sus taught us to call Our Father who art In heaven, shall be Inferior to man In the power and peretstenre of His love? This larger thought of God Involves an unescapable responsibility for every child of His love. If God Is the uni versal Father, then all men everywhere are brothers. The man whom I meet upon the etreet. though he may be de- fm-mod by disease or dissipation, though he may be forbidding of coun tenance and altogether unlovely to look upon, though even the brand of Cain bo upon him and hla life forfeit to the law, la yet the son of s com mon father, and, therefore, my brother. Not only the Yuan whom It Is an honor to call friend, nnd whose companion- but the physically nnd morally un clean, the social outcast, the eplritunl ns a brother, hss full claim to my sym pathy and niy succor. This belief In the universal Father hood of God nnd the consequent uni versal brotherhood of man, when In the fullness of time It shall be fully un derstood nnd adequately applied, shall he found to be the only needed sol vent for all the perplexing social prob lems which are today occupying the earnest thought of ths world's, most profound thinkers.

WHITE To ths Editor of Ths Georgian: It has been Intimated pretty strongly and more than ones through th* At lanta papsrs by a friend of th* temp*r- an*, raus* that there waa a poultilIlly of having a dispensary Instead of ths saloon system. A threat In mods against th* liquor dealers of Atlanta to thin end, that if they extend the whisky llmlta In this city, the Law and Order committee, representing th* Ministers' Evangelical Association, Dr. John E. White, chair man, would attempt to bring on n pro hibition slsctlon, but If that falls then the dispensary qunatlon would-bo con sidered. . -v In a recent Interview with Dr. White, aa reported In The Atlanta Journal, the doctor nays: ‘There la an organisation In Atlanta railed the Anti-Hal,sin League, with which 1 am not officially connected, but with the purpoaea of which I am In entire sympathy whloh may or may not take some steps In the matter." Certainly we are very grateful to him for hla sympathy, for personally I esteem him very highly and am sure he Is quite able, by virtue of hla minis terial position In Georgia, to do the cause of temperance In the elate great good. Aa to hla official connection with th* Antl-tyatoon league, th* doctor** memory la evidently at fault, for most assuredly he Is a member of th* board of directors of the Atlanta Deng*. And It goes without saying thn Leagus ban tlyi only regret that our good brother temperance cause I* sacred, „nd nest to thn salvation of souls thn most Imisirtsnt question nou fore th* people. The doctor states that he Is n..t ap prised as to our attituda toward question of extending th* liquor tin- Well, I am sorry he Is not. We hnd thought any one who Is at all acquaint ed with the great principles and pur poses of the Antl-Baloon I,**kuc know that w* ar* not only opposed to th extension of liquor limits, but tc existence of legalised liquor traff the most narrow circles. We are posed to the traffic whether It la- the licensed saloon or that, abominable compromise, the dispensary. They are both evil and destructive to men They are hideous In the. eight of God and ought to be In the eye* of every Inline man. Neither this government nor any oth er government has a right to ll< ense a liquor ahnp or any other den that will pauperise and debauch and munb-r lie subjects. We drew the line ehnrply. We are unflinchingly opposed to the whole nefarious huslneaa. Ilreneed ,a- loon,, respectable (?) dlspen.aii.-s drinking club houses, etc. We are In th* light to win. We me going to press It to th* last ditch, hope-by the mercy of Ood to bret \v* Jeeus Christ came Into L to regulate sin, but to do away tilth It: so w* have come to emash the Idealised liquor traffic, not to regulate It To this end we Invite every gentleman In I llyh, »ry Georgia to line up with valiantly, and to ■ finish, for our and our Uvea.
