The dawn of human history opens up with God calling Abraham to go into a country about which hLe iknew absolutely nothing, for the pur pose of becoming the father of a race and of a nation from which shouid spring the Messiah, the Saviour of ilie ’world. In the truest sense, Abraham was really the first missionary, direct ly called and sent into the service by God Himself. Notice the methods of Abraham’'s work, and compare them with conditions to-day, and see, after carefully and prayerfully considering the matter, if present-day plans are not conforming to the orizinal plans ‘laid down by God and carried out by Abraham. A Call to a New Work. The call came to the father of the faithful and was heard. He quickly responded, because he heard the call ‘A called man is always an empowered man. God never makes a mistake. |The man always fits the place and the place always suits the man. The ;time is always ripe. When God needs a Saul, He is at hand, and while He ils working on a Saul at one end of the line. He is working on Ananias at the other end. Study for a few 'moments the wonderful conversion cof ‘Saul. When he was stricken down on ‘the Damascus road and converted, 'still the Christians feared Him. Then iGod said to a fearful disciple, “He prayeth.” That seemed to cast out fear. The man who whispers into 'the ear of the King, whether praisss or supplications, is not to be dreaded. }Sln will either stop praying or prayer will stop sinning. Sinning and pray ing can’t go on at the same time. Abra ‘ham was a praving man. He was one ‘who falked to God about his plans, It is always the part of wisdom to ask God to help make our plans, and ‘also for grace and strength to carry them out. Power is needed to mase plans and grace to carry them for ‘'ward. Someone has said that in some ‘respects a good Christian is like a horse. You hitch a horse up, put a bridle on him with blinders, a bit in his mouth, harness on him, place him beiween the shafts and speak to him te go forward. He is patient and obeys. He doesn’t ask where he is going, when he will be fed, how long he is to travel, whether the road is rough or smooth, whether he will be fed little or much, how and when h« will be rewarded. ¥e¢ has nothing ‘o do with the future, and thinks only « obeying his master’'s voice now. Many Christians, however. are not so. Thev don’'t resemble Abty am. They want to know all about the land into whi:h they are called to go—every state and condition, command and reward is 19 be investigated and looked into, all about the journey and its end, its trials and vicissitudes must be thoroughlv comprehended before the call is fully heeded. Such was not Abraham's at titude. Like the horse, let us go where the Father commands, and with faith and fortitude advance according to the commands of the Leader. We may be called to go into strange countries and perform peculiar tasks. and assume burdens seemingly too heavy to be borne. But through it all we can krnow, from observation and experience, that “we have a great high priest who is touched with a feeling of our infirmities and who was tempted in all points like as we are, and yet without sin. Abraham looked forward to His day, and was glad. We are more wonderfully blessed, in that we can look back upon all His-mighty works and can feel that He has verified every promise that He has ever made to the human race, with the added fact that He has definitely promised to be with us al ways, even to the end of the world. The essence of obdience is to go where we be commanded, even though we know nothing about the journey, and less about the companionship on the way. Uniried paths are hard to trav el. This servant of God was to go to Canaan and hive his life among the people. One of the peculiar charac teristics of Abraham’s religion was that it was to be lived rather than preached. It is even in this day easier to preach than to live. Precept is easier than example. It is no small task to do a thing, however easy it is to tel how it may be done. The eternal purpose of the Infinite is clearly revealed as we study the de velopment of Abraham’'s call and mission. A race had to be called intc existeace, and before the race must come the individual. Abraham the individual became the. father of the faithful. But Abraham was not | the only missionary. He was the first of a long line of pioneer workers Isaac and Jacob, David and Nehe miah, Amos and Isaiah, and a mighty multitude of witnesses that no man could number followed him. His ex- | ample has been tremendously helpful | to generation after generation. This lone individual, going out from his kindred and his native land into the midst of strangers in a foreign coun- | try, is wonderful when it 1s contemn plated in the light of reason. One can not help but compare with it the life of Ruth. When, with sister and | mother-in-law, she had decided U]mni her choice, she faced a crisis. She was to go into Israel a stranger. Many difficuities presented them selves, many troubles and vicissitudes | were ahead; but facing God with a | miraculous faith, starnding by the side of her husband's mother, she said, “Thy people shall be my people and thy God my God: whither thou goest I will go, where thou lodgest I will lodge; thy country shall be my country.” This faith that was so gloriously manifest in the lives of ‘Abrahamn and Ruth, from whom our Lord came, is still to be found in the world to-day. When Christ stood in the presence of the centurion and marveled that He had not found so great faith in Israel, it was but an other way of saying that when faith is not found where it should be ex pected it would be found where least expected. Because'when the Son of Man comes He is going to find faith on earth. When He comes to set up His kingdom He is going to find those who are true and faithful. John was telling men to repent of their sins, for the Kingdom of Heaven was at hand, when His first advent occurred. When He comes again missionaries will be found telling the Gospel story. The Enlnrgemn:: °lfl New Testament | all. The Old Testament call was pri marily to the individual, to the ruce, to the Jewish nation, Gradually it er larged and extended further and fur ther until in the New Testament dis pensation the call inciudes all peo ples, nations and languages and lis obligatory upon all classes. All men everyvwaere, from India’s coral strand to Iceland’s frozen waters; from the roar of the mighty Pacific’ to the thunders of the Atlantic; to apostle and preacher, to man and woman, to lay worker and mission worker the call comes alike. Do we heed? Is the call’ as strong as it should be? God so loved He gave. Christ se ioved He came. John so loved he suffered*exile on lonely Patmos. Dces our love loom: large enough upon the horizon of life to force us to go on this missionary errand. There is a work that each man is peculiarly fit ted to do, a niche in life he was cre ated to fill; if he doesn't, no other can occupyv. The lesson of individual responsipility looms large here.. Sup pose for a moment, if such a thing couid have been pessible, that Abra ham had refused to go. Suppose that Faul had remained at Jerusalem and Columbus nad never sailed the wi ters of the Atlantic. Suppos2 John Wesley had been continued in Eng land, or that Whilfield had refused to come to America. What a gap there would have been left unfilled on the religious history of the world. Prother, sister, haw avout you? To-day the call is to all. “Every one of you,” says Paul. The work is systemutic. The cail i® loud and in sistent. Ma'cedonian call never came louder to Paul than heathen calls come to you this day. “Go ye,” is just as obligatdry upon John Smith as it was to John the Apostle. The obligation to go weighed no heavier upon Barnabas than it weighs upon vou. The missionary call is a personal call to each saved sovl. Emphasis to-day, as never before, is being placed upon individual work for in dividuals. It is impossible for the in oividual to hide in the multitude. As God called to Adam in the cool of the evening in KEden's fragrant shrubs and flowers. so He calls to you to-day in this splendid period of conquest and progress. Friend, where art thou? A Glcrious List of Examples. Turn to your Bibles and read that marvelous 11th chapter of Hebrews. |Study the roll call of the faithful. See what great things God can ac lcompllsh thrcugh men who bring their all and lay it upon the altar l without any reservation. Look at our Saviour as He hangs upon Calvary, or las He threads His way along the crowded streets of Palestinian cities, or prays in the quiet of mountains. Follow Paul on his great missionary journeyz, and note his hardships and the tribulations of mind and body through which he had to pass. Go read the life of Adoniram Judson and 'the struggles through which he passed with iiis heroic wife, who new llles under the Hopia tree: sympathize with him in his herculean task of jlranslating rhe Bible into the native Indlan dialect. Stand by him as he iplants two wives away in the grave. )See him in prison, suffering for the sake of the truth and for the Gospel finds himeslt in bonds. But in it all ‘he was true to the call. God had a work for him. to do, and he did it, counting not the cost. When God wants you and your labors and your money and your life, stop for a mo ment and consider “He gave His life for me; His precious blood was shed, that I might ransomed be and quick and from the dead; He gave. He gave His life for me. What have | given for Him. He came all the way from Heaven te earth for me, Where have 1 gone for Him?” The missionary spirit is abread to-day in the land. God calls not all of us to go in per -son, but He gives us means and wants us to be instrumental in sending when we ¢an not go. Christ is our glorious Leader. Yonder wherever human woe and human need are found He stands, and through the centuries comes the ringing challenge, like a trumpet call, urging everyone to the task. "Go ye into all the world and J;rmrh the Gespel to every creature. And lo! I am with you alway, even to the end of the age.” Can we re sist such a Lord? Can we refuse to accept such a glortous task? Will we yield or refuse? Upon our &ac cepting or rejecting depends our fu ture happiness. May our all be laid upon the altar as was Abrabam's and may we be used ever as he wag used, 15
