UNPOPULARITY OF JESUS
(Continued from Page Two.)
Jesus came and sat Himself to re
verse this order, to make the many
rich and the few poor, to make the
many wise and the few ignorant, and
the rich and the learned natur
ally did not like it. They never
will like it. The classes will al
ways frown upon the man or
the movement that endeavors to lift
up the masses, whether it be a lift up
financially, or a lift up in position. The
classes, however much they may talk
to the contrary will frown upon the
effort of a man who attempts as Jesus
did to level things up. Jesus was a
leveler; but He never leveled any
thing down; He always leveled up;
He always endeavored to bring up the
bottom to the top. What He wanted
was that all men should be equal and
it was with reference to that one
thing that He most vigorously and
fully set His face. He refused abso
lutely to cater to the wealthy; learn
ing He spurned unless it was dedicat
ed to the cause of uplift of humanity.
He held that society was upside down.
The people were allowed to do things
because they were rich and had po
sition which the poor could not do and
would not be allowed to do. This
Jesus vigorously denounced. He ex
posed evil and planned the remedy.
His platform was that man —not the
poor man, not the gentleman, not the
Jew, not the Gentile, but man, the
poor and rich, the learned and igno
rant; that man was depraved and
must be redeemed and that He was
his only redeemer. They at that time
had no bowels of mercy for the unfor
tunate. You will remember how I
talked to you of their treatment of
he unfortunate, especially of their
treatment of the leper and of the lu
natic, how that a leper when he was
seen approaching a man or moving m
the direction of a man on a public
street or highway was to be stoned
rather than pitied and helped; and
that the lunatic, the man bereft of his
reason was ordered at once to be put
out of the home upon the street to
roam the country over, to eke out a
miserable existence, and ii he could not
do that, to die. All this is indicative
of the state of society at the time
when Jesus came and began His work.
And against all this He set His face
and for the remedying of all this He
did His work. No wonder He was
unpopular. Now, my friends, I want
to ask you this question. What do
you think would be the effect of such
a social, political, and business teach
er as Jesus was if He lived to
day and taught as He taught
then? Are conditions entirely chang
ed? Is it not a fact today that wealth
is master amongst us, that money can
do anything? Do you not know that
money gives social position in our
community? It isn’t a question as
to how much brains, or how much
culture a man has, or how much re
finement, or piety, he has, it is a ques
tion of his money. Money today prac
tically does everything. I remember
a town in which I lived once where
occurred this circumstance that illus
trates the force of what I am saying.
A woman in that town, long past the
marrying age, suddenly was announc
ed in the newspapers as having fallen
heir to $250,000 over in England, and
a rich old bachelor in town went down
and asked her to be his wife; he
wanted that $250,000 and he wanted
it awful bad; and she turned on him
and said: “I have known you all my
life; you have known me all my life,
and you have never found out that
you loved me until a few days ago,
when you saw it in the papers that
The Golden Age for July 27,1911.
I had left to me $200,000. No, sir;
1 don’t want you.” In a few days
after that there came out another no
tice to the effect that it was a mis
take; it was another woman, and I
have always been sorry that she did
not take him.
One of the saddest commentaries on
the present day is that money will
actually disrupt the domestic circle.
Money has wrecked and ruined the
whole marital relation among certain
people. I know plenty of young men
hanging around saying, “I am not go
ing to get married until I can find
a woman who has money enough to
take care of us.’’ Money will give a
false interpretation to society. It has
not been such a great while since I
passed by a certain well known club
where they had had a big dance. I
saw some of the men bringing some
women out, and I saw, them put them
in the carriage, and they were so
drunk they never could have put their
feet in that carriage had it not been
for the men helping them. If that
thing had occurred among the mass
es of the people of this city it would
have created such a stir, such a scan
dalous affair as you would have had
aired in this community. But they had
money; they had position; they could
do as they pleased; they could tram
ple all sorts of proprieties under
their feet and nobody would say a
word.
Money will dictate legislation. A
few years ago Congress was upon the
verge of passing a very important
bill concerning certain regulations m
Utah among the Mormons; the whole
civilized world was interested in it,
and expecting something to be done.
The day when the last vote was taken
upon the measure a telegram came
from Wall Street to one of the New
York representatives, and this was the
nature of the telegram: “Wall Street
sold five millions of dollars last year
in Salt Lake City; hands off” and
five million dollars defeated the meas
ure that the whole civilized world wias
hoping for.
Besides, we all know, as a matter
of fact that money to a great extent
controls the Church. You people who
have never had the responsibility of
pastoring a flock of people do not be
gin to appreciate the temptations of
the preacher. The preacher wants to
be popular; he is human enough to
want popularity. He wants to stand
in with the people and it is so easy
for him to find himself tied up in
such away as that he can not untie
himself. Oh, how easy it is done:
They dine us and ride us, then expect
us to keep hands off. If we do not
keep hands off they will keep hands
off, and every preacher is conscious
of the fact that right before him as
he preaches are the men who have his
financial burdens to bear, and if he
antagonizes wealth he will make the
burden greater. He knows what that
means, and it is a hard position.
The only way our Lord has to rep
resent Himself in the world today is
through His Church, and over the
TETTERINE CURES TETTER ETC.
Circumstantial evidence has con
victed many a man, but the facts in
the case prove that Tetterine positive
ly cures tetter, eczema, itching piles,
ringworm, scalp and other skin dis
eases. We have these facts from
thousands whom Teterine has cured,
but the best evidence is a trial of this
wonderful ointment. We want you to
be the Judge and Jury—get a box
from your druggist, and if he can’t
supply you, send 50c. to the Shuptrine

You Can Have it Free and
Be Strong and Vigorous.
I have in my possession a prescription
for nervous debility, lack of vigor, weak
ened manhood, failing memory and lame
back, brought on by excesses, unnatural
drains, or the follies of youth, that has
cured so many worn and nervous men
right in their own homes —without any
additional help or medicine —that I think
every man who wishes to regain his man
ly power and virility, quickly and quietly,
should have a copy. So I have determin
ed to send a copy of the prescription free
of charge, in a plain, ordinary sealed en
velope to any man who will write me for
eian who has made a special study es
it.
This prescription comes from a physi
r»en and I am convinced it is the surest
acting combination for the cure of defic
ient manhood and vigor failure ever pat
together.
I think I owe it to my fellow man to
send them a copy in confidence so that
any man anywhere who is weak and dis
couraged with repeated failures may stop
drugging himself with harmful patent
medicines, secure what I believe is the
quickest-acting restorative, upbuilding,
SPOT-TOUCHING remedy ever devised,
and so cure himself at home quietly and
quickly. Just drop me a line like this:
Dr. A. E. Robinson, 4494 Luck Bldg., De
troit, Mich., and I will send you a copy of
this splendid recipe in a plain ordinary en
velope free of charge. A great many
doctors would charge >3.00 to $5.00 for
merely writing out a prescription like this
-but I send it entirely free.

Church the minister presides, and if
the minister fails to proclaim the pure,
uncompromising gospel of Christ in
spite of everything, tie will not be
represented. Oh, what a responsibil
ity!
I believe today that the greatest
drawback is a subsidized ministry;
subsidized oftentimes and don’t know
it; tied fast and don’t know it; no
field in which to roam, no chance to
speak the clear, unvarnished truth.
Here is a man in the Church, for ex
ample, who is a member of the City
Council. If we say anything about
their failure to properly discharge
their duty, he has his back up. Here is
a member of the Legislature; if I say
anything he has his back up. Here
is a rich man doing that which he has
no right. If I speak of it he gets mad
and takes himself off, and somebody
says I am running everybody out of
the Church who has money.
My brethren, are you surprised that
Jesus was unpopular? Are you sur-
