■■ THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. utprdav. ji nk a. h** BELIEF IN GOD A NECESSITY OF THOUGHT PASTOR TRINITY M. E. CHURCH — [.ord Kelvin rlerlnreil before the jtritlih Association that In the esteem of rrientlflc men'of today belief In God li a necessity of thought. The bitter controversy over evolu tion and natural selection Is already out of date. But the great truth turned Into the thought of the present genera tion, that things, since the beginning, have steadily moved up, from lower to higher expressions of themselves, will never pass away. This Is the concep tion that forces belief today, In the cre ative, directive power of Ood. It Simply Impossible to believe that atoms which together form matter, and their activities which together make up mo tion, have by gradual stages, accident ally gathered themselves Into the per fection for the universe. Let us sup pose, for the time being, that those gave strict attention to details, but at the same time made the whole dlflce conform to one general plan. While there were seventy different classes of workers, each atom In any one class abored exactly after the fashion fol lowed by the other atoms of Its kind, plough one might be at work on the bottom side of the world, and the other busy at the top side, and though the two may never have been nearer together than Is one end of the earth to the other, still the two managed to perform the same task In the same way and in the same time. I. who trr to account for the cosmos without the Supreme Being, are right. Let us suppose that about 100,000,000 vears ago, more or less, something like seventy different kinds of little particles started out to build a planet, like the one upon which we are per mitted. for a few years, to make our home. See how the atoms went about their work. They,began with the foun dation, and under-set the errth with a solid rock bottom: This was not only for underpinning, but was also to con stitute the cellar and first floor of the structure. After this follow, nine other stories, each of which required millions of years to complete. They are so dearly defined and distinct, the one from the other, that geologists have pointed them out. Their names are technical, but as every Intelligent man ought to be acquainted with tbe dif ferent departments of his own dwell ing place. It Is well enough tp call them off. They are after the Algonklan or lowest story, the Cambrian, the Si lurian. the Devonian, the Carboniferous, the Juratrlas, the Cretaceous, the Eo cene, the Neocene, the Pleistocene, and the recent or the topmost. The atoms built each story of the terrestlal man sion finer than the one below It. They Every atom of all the seventy moved at an unmentionable rate of activity In the performance of Its .task, and was accustomed to strike other atoms In It* way billions of times every second, but working altogether and colliding as they did. they managed to finish up a ten-story mansion, marvelously con venient and beautiful! They dot only lifted to completion the edifice as a whole, but they also furnished every story of It In a most wonderful way. They made each part conform to every other part, and each floor had reference to the next one above, and all to the topmost and most perfect of the ten. After the finishing touches were put on, the atoms determined to delegate a part of their number to take living form In on order of being capable of appreciating what they had done. The enormous animals they had turned out In the primal times, and those set age ing In recent years, did not measure up to the style of round ball they had wound off. So, a pert of the atoms went Into partnership, with life, and began to breathe In a human being. They repealed the chemical laws under which they had lived In an unorganised state, and enacted new ones, suitable to an advanced order of existence. The first man was very crude, not much above the grade of the monkey. But the outside atoms were not satisfied with the savage they saw the Inside atoms had assumed, and so they began to beat and pelt them with such merci less fury that the organised elements began specialising a few new features with a view to moving up the barba rian table lands. Rut they had no sooner become domesticated than the hurtling balls from the surrounding regions began to strike them with more emphasis than they had felt below. It becomes apparent to the particles rush ing around In the brain of the barba rian that he had to move again, nr be doomed to death by molecular hall from the outlying territory of the exterior elements. The question of survival be came too pressing to Ignore. The bar baric atoms, therefore, began to work the principle of specialisation again and to adapt themselves to the wide stretching plains of civilisation. It. After the atoms got fairly down to business In the civilised men, a most amaslng thing occurred. Up to that stage the Inside atoms had for the most part lived In harmony, finding plenty of exercise for their powers In making a united fight against the con tending elements outside. Now, how ever, Interior differences of the most serious nature divided the organised atoms Into opposing armies. The civ ilised man found a war raging within the confines of his own personality, more evenly drawn and deadly than any In which he had ever engaged with foes outside. The beginning of the feud arose when the soldiers of one army entered a general strike against climbing any higher up the ascending way, seemingly projected, for all to follow. In opposition to .those who wanted to turn back and start’ down ward, there was a part of the forces who would hear to nothing except marching forward and steadily up ward. The conflict between the down ward and the upward battalions was hand to hand, face to face, and with no quarter shown by either side to the other. Another remarkable fact manifested Itself now. The elements outside seemed to favor the organised elements Inside Inclined to move up ward. Just as In far distant past ages, they had killed off the murder ous dragons that were threatening to REV. DR. JAMES W. LEE. annihilate every living thing, so now, they were disposed to help In the struggle, the weaker, but sweeter and nobler atoms fighting to go up In the civilised man. It become harder and harder for the molecules which trly umphed In Individuals like Ramises II, Nero, Attlla and Tamerlane to’ make their way. The general order of the day throughout all atomic Infinity seemed to be that the fair and amiable and just and kind atoms In the civilised biped should conquer the base and mean and the vile ones. There ap peared to be a deep-seatsd prejudice In the molecular heavens against the hell-bent atoms In* man. This samo general enmity was seen In earlier ages when the monsters made up main ly of teeth and claws were killed off and when venomous birds and deadly plants were withdrawn from the field of action. Because of this tendency on the part of atoms generally to help the ones which pulled skyward In man, the race has been constantly rising townrd purer conduct, nobler Ideals, liner liv ing. Spiritual elements have super seded the natural. The savage has been forced to give place to the philan thropist. The horlson of the selfish, measured by the curl of his cblmney smoke, has been Infinitely distanced by the sky line of the saint. III. On the supposition that particles of matter, assisted by force, spun the globe like so many little spiders out of their entrails and then left It n round opaque web wheeling In the heavens, we are ready to write a new creed. A realm for faith confronts us now such as mortals never faced be fore. The atoms not only built the world, but they supplied It with raw materal. varied enough, and In quanti ties suttlclent to supply the wants of all coming generations of living things. They put In coal enough to Insure per petual aummer at the top of the tem porary abode they built, for all, who should ever need fire. They mixed the soli for future crops. They stored up marble In anticipation of nrrhltecta like Phidias nnd temples like the Parthenon. They packed away plenty of Iron for raaora and anvils and steam engines. They counted out and laid up gold enough to make the foundations of commerce secure. They piled up sliver for spoons and tea aqta and pocket chains. They were not averse to things artistic and fine, so they ar ranged clays for coloring matter, so mixed as to synchronise with the pul sations of light. They endowed all things with certain qualities of sound to be utilised by those Inclined to music. Thej- anticipated all wants from those the stomach should feel to those demanded by the Imagina tion. IV. All this the elements did without any suggestion from butnlde pressure. They had no orders from any power exterior to and other than themselves. The thought they worked out Inhered In their own little points of activity. The work they performed was of their own conception and the program they followed was of their own sketching. Each was self-included nnd self-con tained and Independent, but by cone mon consent all acted to fulfill a sin' gle purpose, self-generated, and self' Imposed, and to the self-oansummated. Thus we see what we are to accept when Ood Is dethroned. We get done with a Rupreme Being, It Is true, but only by disintegrating him and pub verlslng him Into particles of dust, every one of which becomes a little god with the same attributes possessed by the one all controlling Creator. We eliminate one mystery and Introduce three hundred qulntllllons of them Into every breath of air, for either there Is one almighty, Intelligent personal will, or there are billions of them In every pinch of mud and In every drink of water. Movement, says Haeckel, Is as Innate and original a property of sub stances as Is sensation. Then If the atoms are not controlled by the will of Ood. they are self controlled. Accord ing to this view, each atom 1s self de termining, self knowing and self exact ing, and being eternal, conforms exact ly to all the conditions and qualities nnd attributes of Ood. Any eternal en tity, however unseeable It may tie, that determines Itself nnd acts from Itself and haa sensation or knowledge of It self, Is a god, for nothing can be con ceived higher, or more original, or more absolutely Independent. Such a line of thought may appear like a delirious movement such ax the mind takes In a wild dream, but It Is exactly the mental attitude to,which one Is driven when he seriously under takes to think of the world without a transcendent, and nt the same time, Im manent Creator. The elements of cre ation are not Independent, self-acting entitles. They are the dependent vehi cles and Instruments of the eternal mind of Ood. They are the letters Ood use to express hla thought. We know there Is thought In nature and ive are ! compelled to believe that It either In heres In the c ustlturnt particles. ,,r was put In by the mind ,f the Maker. Try for a moment to get thought out of a world. Suppose all at once rocks should 1 become light ntt feathers and feathers heavy n" lend: that the sea should become solid nnd the mountains liquid: that the sun should rise In the nest and sol In the south; that calves should turn Into elephants during the ntght and horses take to the wnter as alligators; that oak trees should pro duce watermelons Instead „f acorns. What would be the result 7 The world would become an Insane asylum (llled With deranged people. It Is the orderly, uniform, consecutive thought the Lord la constantly sending to oe through the Intelligible rational uni verse that keeps us mentally balanced. VII. Science haa been defined as the sys tematic observation of the uniform way In which energy arts, but the study ,,f the subject given above shows that sci ence Is the systematic observation of the uniform way minds acts, ns It uses the elements and forces of nature to express Its thoughts. Science Is that part of the thought of God expressed through nature man has been able t„ translate Into hla own experience and express In language. When we get light nnd heat from the human shore of the ether sea. we know It Is because they were put In from the sun side shore and sent In wavelets to us When the glad notes of the feathered song ster come in splashes tip against the human shore of the morning, we ,b> not conclude that the music Inheres m the folds of dashing spray, but "ere Iput In front the mocking bird shove and sent to us. Wlint Is meant by sci ence la Clear. It la the certain and universally valid knowledge gained through experience on the human shore of being of a part of the truth contained In the Infinite ocean of In telligible and divine reality. Science Is that part of Infinite truth man has discovered and turned Into hls ow n mind, and translated Into hls own lan- gusga. «••••••••••«•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*008880•»**•< ■••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••I THE AUTHORITY OF JESUS it.V.it... One of the most general and serious questions for dlscuaslon ntnong the followers of Christianity, has ever been the question of the source and the nature of the authority of Iti founder. This Is probably only nat ural, but It Is also very unfortunate. 1 am Inclined to tbe opinion that the world haa often lost much of the pow er of the message of many a great soul, by dissipating Its spiritual ener gies In a vain effort to fully account for Its authorship. The naked, hun gry, and untutored souls of men will never be fed, clothed and taught by vain speculations and theorisings re garding the origin and the nature of Jesus Christ. Wherever the Christian church has been of any real and decid ed assistance In the onward march of the world’s civilization It has not been because of her inass of conflicting theories regarding the person of Jesus Christ, but It has always been through her patient and persistent practice of the teachings of Jesus, teachings wherein there was found no room for profitable debate and discussion. Every religion which has developed power to move the hearts of men has consisted In a great Ideal Incarnated In a splendid personality. A close study of the history of the world’s leading religions discovers for us the lamentable fact that altogether too of ten the tendency among the followera of these religions has been to lose much of the power of a personal'grrasp of that Ideal by an unreasoning and fanatical deification of that. Ideal's splendid Incarnation. Christianity has not escaped this loss. With far too many Christians the personality Jesus receives much more of careful and prayerful' attention than do hls matchless Ideals for a perfect life. In the minds of the mors fanatical zeal ots no room Is found to admit to Christian fellowship and Christian fol lowing the man whose careful atudy and calm and deliberate judgment ren der him unable to honestly accept the deity of that matchless inan of truth and purity, whose spiritual authority and leadership he eagerly and grate fully acknowledges. '‘Deity” a t nd “Divinity.” Thera has been so much of mental juggling with the words ’’deity’’ and “divinity” ns applied to Jsaua that It has become somewbat difficult to frame a statement touching upon these char- acterisatlons which shall be entirely free from possibilities of mental con fusion. These terms are by no means co-existent and co-dependant. A grateful recognition of the Incompar able and Incomprehensible divinity of Jesus does not Imply or necessitate a belief In hls deity. This belief In the undented divinity of Jesus brings with It assures the possibility of personal experience and participation. On tha other hand, while the Insistence of a belief In tha deity of Jesus renders entirely super' flous any extraneous thought of Hls divinity, It also denies to the believer any reasonable hope of a personal par ticipation In the glorious triumphs of that divinity. In other words. If ws must think of, and believe In Jesus as God, then Hls splendid declaration of hope and’ encouragement, “be of good cheer,'I have overcome the world,” has really no deep personal significance for us mortals who batls manfully for the development and the triumph of our divinity,- but who have not dared to ascribe to ourselves the omnipotence of deity. The deification of Jesus makes hls victories quite beyond ths pale of human endeavor. Bat, as I have already Intimated, all of these speculations and theories art really not at all essential to the ac tual practice of Christianity. Let ev cry man hold 'tenaciously that theorf which appeals most conspicuously to hls own reason, and which, therefore, must prove most helpful to him In hls effort after a righteous life. Two men were once hopelessly lost In a seemingly Impenetrable wilder ness. They had wandered long nnd fruitlessly In a der«i and gloomy val ley, surrounded by apparently Impass able mountains. They were famish ing for food, and weary to complete exhaustion with thslr despairing wan derings through ths thick and noxious undergrowth. Night was fast approach ing, ths deepening twilight made mors ominous by the distant cry of wild REV. E. D. ELLENWOOD. animals seeking their prey. Suddenly, as he despairingly turned hls eyes heavenward, one of the travelers caught sight of a man standing, clear and full In sight, upon a jutting prom ontory of rock, high up on the distant mountainside. He was - so far from them that It was Impossible for any clear explanation regarding hla ante cedents lo reach them, but there tvaa that about hls very bearing and atti tude which at pnee Inspired confidence. Hls authority was the authority of the truth resident In hls own heart, and II did not fall of Its appeal to the truth In the hearts of those who hopefully beheld him. They fell, at once, that he could be trusted, and, although they could not hear hls voice, they eagerly followed hls every movement while he beckoned to them, and then quickly pointed out that which had before es caped their notice, nn entirely safe and secure, nllhouxh somewhat diffi cult, pathway, leading through the jun gle, and up the rugged mountain to the vantage point, where stood their guide eager to welcome them. The Authority of the Guide. With hearts Ailed with gratitude to their deliverer, each declared to the other hla full confidence In the ability and rectitude of Ihelr guide, and each expressed the belief that ths pathway discovered lo them would end In safe ty and happiness. And then, mlrsblls dlclul Instead of Immediately begin ning ths ascent, with all tha aid af forded by the rapidly waning daylight, these famishing travelers, with ths way of life open before them, began to dls' cuss ths origin and ths source of ths authority of their guide. That author ity they Instinctively felt nnd ucknowl- edged. It appealed to them powerfully nnd successfully. They believed In their guide, but, before they should com- ruiuc, ui4i, Hfiuift iiivy niiuuiu n/in* mencft to follow hi* Inatnictlona, they were determined that they nhould de ride who he wai nnd how he got there. One won of the opinion thnt he wne a (remit?, had descend The other was equally decided In belief that their would-be deliverer wait a fellow mortal, who havlnn passed over the same way, and encountered the same difficulties successfully, was moved by divine compaaslon to mako them part icl nat ora In hts triumph. And so this entirely profitless dlscuaslon waxed Into n quarrel, fierce and (unntl- Iral, while the precious moments of daylight slipped away, and sight fall upon these perishing bigots, partners In a common destruction, rlnnpcd close in a death struggle to maintain the'su premacy of a theory. The Authority of Jesus. And thus, In too large measure, has tha Christian church, through all the centuries of Its Ufa, held sacred the au thority and the leadership of Its found er. Any and all theories regarding the origin and the nature of Jeauf Christ have absolutely nothing whatever to do with the practice of the Christian religion. The authority and the lead- crshlp of Jesus mre nnd must be spir itual In their nature. It Is the author ity of truth appealing to truth, nnd absolute righteousness appealing to those Instincts of righteousness resi dent In every huni.ni Bentt I.<*t a man hold whatever theory he may. regard ing the personality of Jesus, unless he endeavor faithfully to Incarnate the Ideals of Jesus In Ills own life, he ran In on sense be railed a Christian.

The present president of the society Is »n Indian prisoner, for whose efera- tlon to this office the society recently cast a unanimous vote. Questions of face and color seem not to appear In the work of this little society, which, m my mind, speaks pretty well for Its Interest til matters purely religions. The last services of which I shall speak are those In which two or three are gathered together. During Ihe week some of these gentlemen who are giving us so much of their time end effort without money nnd without price, as the Meater gives, come out to the prison to talk privately In my office with some one who te troubled In spirit, and tears and prayers nnd pescs Is often the result. It Is this personal work which Is ths most effective. Ths actual contact of Christ's spirit with the unclean spirit Is still necessary to the victory. Just as It was 1,100 years ago, and If you want to win men for Christ you must bear Hls spirit to them. Mare Bsniihmsnt Does No Good.
