The Church ’s 'Relation to the World
(Continued from Page Thro)
second, the creation of an atmosphere
of sufficient purity as to make it possi
ble to develop these saved men and
women into pure and undefiled char
acters. That is the mission of the
church as I see it. In other words,
if the church would do her full duty,
she must not only concern herself
about the salvation of men, but
also about the checking of the
stream of sin and defilement that is
flowing today with such a momentum
right past the very door of the church
in which the saving process is going
on. It is true for two or three rea
sons. First, it is true because the
churcn, unless she is strong enough
to influence her environments, is lia
ble to take on the atmosphere that
environs her. There is a psychologi
cal principle that says that no two
people can come together and sepa
rate as they met, that the strongest
of the two characters will ever pre
dominate. We have seen that operat
ed in thousands of ways. Here, for
example, are two women. They meet
at their church. One is a pessimist;
the other is an optimist. When the
optimist com'es up she finds this pes
simist seated and at her work in the
sewing circle and the conversation
turns something like this. “Good
morning, sister,” says the bright
cheery optimistic woman; and the
old pessimist says, “Good morning.”
“How do you feel, this morning”; “Oh,
I should think you would know how I
feel. I feel bad, of course.” “Are you
ill?” “Yes, lam never any other way
but ill.” “Is it pain?” “Oh, yes.”
“Where do you have pain?” “Oh, ev
erywhere.” They stay together, and
it is groan and whine. After awhile
the time for separation comes and this
bright cheery optimistic woman goes
home. She finds that she weighs a
great deal more than she did in the
morning. Her arms are heavy, and
she can hardly walk. She gets home
and goes in and sits down by the fire
and the moment she sits down she
begins to punch and hunt for some
bad feelings. She is hunting for a sore
spot and there isn’t a man or woman
that can not find it. Everybody has
got one somewhere. After awhile she
finds it and she holds it dead tight
until her husband comes home. She
is afraid she will lose it before he
gets there and when he comes he finds
her ill. Now, the philosophy of it is
simply this, that the stronger of these
two characters has left such an im
press upon the weaker as that she
can not throw it off. I was talking to
a doctor the other day and said, “Doc
tor, what per cent of your practice is
the result of this kind of thing?” He
said, I am not sure but about fifty per
cent of it.” Now, my friends if it be
true, and it is true, that such contact
results in the formation of tempera
ments and characters and health, so—
but we do not expect the same prin
ciple to operate in religion.
RESULT OF CONTACT.
The church, and I speak of the
church in general, is either fixing the
standards of business and society and
politics or else business and society
and politics are effecting the stand
ards of the church. The church is
simply a grouping together of individ
uals. The church and community can

not come in contact with each other
and not result in the stronger of the
two leaving an impress upon the
weaker. If the church is stronger than
the world it will impress the world
in its standards, its contact with the
community will set up its ideals; and
if the church is the weaker of the two
the world outside will fix the stand
ards of the church. And so I say for
the perpetuity of the purity of the
church of Christ she must give her at
tention to the formation of the public
atmosphere.
There was a time when the church
had to preach her doctrines more than
today. We have largely fought out
and established our doctrinal basis.
This is a day of practical application.
It is so in business; it is so in society;
it is so in politics; it is not the man
who talks most; not the man who
makes the most show, but the man
who practices what he preaches that
the world wants today, regardless of
his family history, or of his personal
pedigree. It is just so with religion.
I am a Baptist; I believe with all my
heart in our ideals, in our Baptist
creed. I think that is important, but
hear me, the world to whom I preach
does not care a rap whether lam a
Baptist or not; the world does not
care whether I have had water poured
on my head or sprinkled on my head
or whether I have been buried in it;
but listen; this is what the world
does care about. The world cares
to know whether or not I practice in
my life day by day those principles in
my creed which I preach on Sunday.
The world does not care whether I
say the Lord’s prayer every day that
we come together or not, but the world
does care to know whether or not
in my daily life I act out the princi
ples of that prayer. The world cares
to know the life that a man lives, and
so with reference to our testimony as
a church. The questions that the
world wants to know about a man who
belongs to the church is, does he pay
his debts? Does he take advantage of
his brother’s weakness or ignorance
in a trade or a bargain? Is he square
and upright and honorable and hon
est? That is the cry, and there has
not been stress enough laid on this
and there isn’t stress enough laid on
it today. We have been too well sat
isfied with the mystical side of relig
ion, and not enough concerned about
the practical life. The world cares
about how we b’ve, how we serve; the
world cares whether we vote as we
pray or not.
The world says, this is his prayer,
“Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven”; the world
cares to know whether when we walk
to the polls with ballot in hand we
vote for the man who will most see to
it that this prayer finds an answer in
our present day and generation. The
church needs to have, yea, it must
have if it holds its own, more back
bone to stand up in spite of its al
liances and dare to assert its convic
tions.
My brethren, who is going to do this
work of cleaning up society, if not the
church? Who is going to advocate
clean politics, the suppression of
gambling, the saloon and other legal
ized wrongs of this character? Who
has ever done it bilt the church in all
the history of the world of reforms?
This was, the method of Jesus. Jesus
in my text is delivering His great and
mighty inaugural sermon, that ser
mon which we call “The Sermon on
the Mount,” in which He is setting
forth great sublime principles without
stopping to argue or apply. Speaking

Martha Dingus, of Lykins, Ky., “to
inform you what Cardui has done for
me. I have been a chronic invalid for
years. I reckon I have had about
every ailment that women are heir to.
I have doctored a great deal with a
great many doctors, as we have travel
ed a great deal in search of health, yet
received but little benefit and got no
better.
“Four months ago I commenced to
use Cardui, and since then have been
steadily improving all the time. lam
now 46 years old, and am in better
health than I have been In 20 years,
and I give Cardui the credit for it.”
Cardui has been known, during the
past 50 years, as a reliable, effective
remedy, for the ailments peculiar to
women. It is a pure, non-intoxicating
preparation, made exclusively from
vegetable ingredients, having a special,
curative effect on the female system.
Cardui has been found to relieve pain
and restore disordered functions to
health.

to the disciples and through them to
the church, He said, “Ye are the salt

statement for to work out. What
is salt?. The chemist tells us that salt
is made up of two parts, sodium, and
chlorine gas. When they get togeth

that prevents mortification or de
