THE GOLDEN AGE FOR AUGUST 7, 1913
GODS ATTITUDE TO SIN.
(Continued from page 2.)
men are responsible for things that
they cannot have known, is to repre
sent God as tyrannical and despotic.
But while there is no common de
gree of responsibility for all men for
failing to apprehend the truth in their
lives ,there is nevertheless a common
ground of responsibility for the atti
tude of men to the truth. For ex
ample, a man is responsible if he is
ignorant of the truth because he does
not wish to know it. There are many
people in this class. They do not wish
to know the truth because it might
upset their present position—it might
cause them to go back on many things
they have subscribed to; and take on
many things they have refused to ac
cept.
Then again men do not wish to
know the truth because it might
change the course of their lives. For
example, a man refuses to investigate
the truth concerning the great ques
tion of forgiveness. Here it is. He
does- not have to go very far to find
what the truth of God is concerning
forgiveness, it is as plain as plain can
be. But he does not investigate it;
he assumes to know it, though he is
nor, satisfied about it. Why does he
not investigate it? Because he is afraid
if he should it would cause him to
have to go and speak to somebody
whom he cannot forgive, and he will
not do it! That man is altogether out
of harmony with God. He has put up
before God an attitude which will pre
clude the moulding and shaping of
his life in the direction of God.
Let me give another example: A
man refuses to seek light, because he
is afraid that if he did he would have
to be a minister. I know a man at
this moment who refused absolutely
to yield open, receptive heart to the
truth. Why? Because he was afraid
if he should do so the truth would
Idrive him into the pulpit. He d’d not
want to go, and for years there was
no see-saw, there was no harmony, no
music in that life, there could be none.
jMusic is the result of the blending
of harmonious chords under one touch,
when the heart strings are fingered by
the willing touch of the finger of God.
Tha + is mus'c, and that is the only
thing makes music!
Then again, men are responsible if
they are ignorant of the truth because
of a trifling attitude they assume to
it. Many people endeavor to know
the tmth by arguing against it. This
is a serous mistake: it never leads
to the truth in any respect. A great
law teacher once sa'd to h ; s students:
“Never defend a case when you are
sure of guilt; it is not only wrong to
the state and society, but its greatest
wrong is to yourself. For as a man
argues, so he will eventually come to
think. If a man argues against truth

when he knows it, he will eventually
become untrue.”
Then, men are responsible if they
are ignorant of the truth, because they
want to engage in passions which are
low and animal. A young man came
to me on one occasion and said: lam
discouraged; I feel so much the pull
of the passions of the flesh; but God
knows I am not satisfied with it; I
want something better. I want the
best!” When that young man went
away I said to myself what is verily
true: “If that man remains in that
condition he will have the best! It
cannot be otherwise. The very desire
that he has for the best, is light, and
the more a man yields himself to the
light be has got, the more he gets!”
My brethren, God never judges an
overt act by itself. He always judges
the act and the attitude together. It
takes both the act and the attitude to
determine the actor. And God sees
this when he begins to look in judg
ment upon man. He sees the act, the
attitude and the actor, and the atti
tude and the action must always be
taken together in order that God can
make his estimate of the conduct of
a man. For the action will eventually
partake of the nature of the attitude,
and the attitude must always precede
the rectifying of an action. A life is
but the expression of an attitude; it
is an attitude (if you will) dressed
with feet and legs and hands; it is
the man outside that has previously
l : ved inside.
Now, my brethren, concerning all
th’s the apostle has more things to
say in conclusion. “Because that which
is known of God is manifest in them;
for God manifested' it unto them. For
the invisible things of him since the
creation of the world are clearly seen,
being perceived through the things
that are made, even his everlasting
power and divinity, that they may be
without excuse.” Here we have the
statement of a three-fold responsibil
ity: First, a responsibility coming out
of God’s method of revelation, which
is a twofold method, as stated here
in this section. First, it is a method
of manifestat’on; “it is manifested in
t’’em;” in their conscience. God man
ifesting himself in the inner consci
ence of men. God's first manifestation
cf himself is not to the outside man,
it is to the inner man; it is to the
