ON SUNDAY.
Rev. A. J. Mu#hea at the Rleihedlst
Church on #unoay IfiomliW
A Vory Earnest and Able
Dlseourse
Rev. A. J. Hughes preached a very the
earnest sermon on Sunday from
following text: w*rt cold hot. So
I v or Id iJjou or nn<l
then beonnre thoU art lnkewgrin,
neither cold no? hot, I will sikxv tlieo
out. of my nicutb. Re- ■ 8cb*»i. !•* mid
111 vmes.
Mr. Hughes sakl: Character is
tbc only thing that w il pass in the
next world, No inquiry will be made
about station in life, or riches or
poverty. God found* d the church
and upholds and sustains it to help
us form a right character. It may
bo that he could have saved the
world without the church, but He
selected it as a medium of salvation.
There are two principles in the
world—right and wrong; the church
is for the right and opposed to
wrong. Its every undertaking ia to
defend right and oppose wrone.
The temperanco cause is largely rep¬
resented m prohibition, aud there la
not a church worthy of the name
but, has declared for prohibition. We
nro wrestling with this question as
neyci before. Some of the men on
the other aide, and Borne lukewarm
prohibitionists say we aro doing too
mutliaml will endanger the cause.
There is no danger of do •
ing too much; the toinuoranco ca use
never stood so high as it does now.
It is true we lost Tennessee, Texas
and Oregon, and Atlanta went wet,
but tho great vote polled tor te mper
nnno by the best men of the country
in those contests, awakened the lie
quor men as they never wore before.
Tho Democratic Convention at St.
Louis and the Republican Convene
tion at Chicago tipped their hats to
tho temperance cause, They hare
learned that prohibition means some¬
thing. Tho eh urch has no business
to meddle with politics, but temper¬
ance is a moral question, and is part
of tho work of the church.
Congressman Blair has recently
introduced a hill prohibiting the run
nmg.of trains, carrying mails and
printing-news papers on Sunday, tut
I have little hope of its passage, there
is too much corruption. It is an out
rage ;; that such things should
be, and it is a high insult to
heaven. The men who ride on Sun¬
day trains and read Sunday papers
mp; parlies to the desecration of the
Sabbath, and aro as guilty as the men
who run and print them. There is
cause o! uneasiness for onr
not trom foreign foes, but from
a 1 ack of reverence for tho Sabbath
Visiting, talking politics aud business
on Sunday, is just as bad as ham¬
mering in tho shop Sunday singings
are demoralizing, and there is not
one redeeming feature about them.
They sing good longs, but I am not
su e but the manner of singing them
is an insult to God. Let mo beg you,
that you may not insult heaven, by
allowing your sons nnd daughters to
attend them. Do not allow tho
church to he desecrated with' them.
The question of education is one
for the church. It has always up
told education, and was for hundreds
of years tho repository of nearly ah
the learning of the world. The
legislature of Georgia lias.not touch*
ed the public system for good in fif¬
teen years. The members want to
be re-elected, they are looking out
for tho popular vote, and are afraid
to move in tbo right direction. The
counties should have been laid out
in school districts, good houses should
have been built and good teachers
employed, *nd none but godly
teachers. Every college should be
controlled by the church, and educa¬
tion should be {the work of tho
church. There are many parents
who do not want their children edu¬
cated, and would not educate them
if circumstances ware moat favor¬
able; therefore education should be
compulsory. No man has the right
to world bring and a family of them children into the
There roar in umorance.
aie are two classes that are
danserous\o the country. The an*
godly educated illiterato class, aud the igno
rant class who
o controlled by them. The
icalion of ungodly men ia danger
i to the country; they me armed
for evil You have aona and .laugh
ten*, wbr if educated may rise to
niii' M .
Tl »■ 8 nday school is the work of
the ivunil. If you were properly
interested in this great work and
had proper views about studying the
scripturt *, this house would be full
of Sunday school scholars. I say
it respect fully and tenderly, but most
tf tbc t< aohors arc utterly incompe¬
tent, and the church members arc
lukewarm and careless.
The church is lukewarm in miss¬
ionary wor!*, and it is shameful to
know tlm little that we give. I
could give statistics of the money
raised in this county, that I hope
would make you blush.
An effort has been made to repair
the grave yard, and it is met with the
reply that much work has been done
on the church and we need a rest.
Ycu have bad a rest of twenty-five
years and ought to be able to work
now. I commend the Baptists for
what they have done at X Roads and
here and I commend the Methodist for
what they nave done, but the rest
has been long and more should be
done. The church should be the
most splendid edifice in the commu*.
nity. The scriptures sustain this
vie w; the temple at Jerusalem wna
the mest magnificent building ever
erected \»y tbc hnnd of man.
T be social church meetings are
not well attended. Church members
will go miles and miles to attend
lodge meetings, agricultural meetings
and political meeting, but can’t at¬
tend the prayer meetings They
don’t talk about religion, don’t know
whether their neighbor is ia the
church or not. There are church
members in the country who bad
rather seo their children with a little
fortuno and ungodly, than poor and
pious—rather see them educated and
polished, than religious. There is
zeal foi -politics but lukewarmness
about religion. There is a lack of
zeal and a lukewarmness in religion
that tends to destruction.

THAT PICTURE.
Hm. RxeisTEH.’ I see a picture
drawn in the last issue of your paper
entitled, “Such is Life,” in which
there is more truth than fiction. The
picture thus drawn, is but a fitting
illustration of the many instances of
the difference shown between tho
rich and the poor. The pictnro
does not only show the magnitude of
the souls of such people but demon¬
strates the fact that that the relig¬
ion thus exemplified is foreign to
that taught in the biblo by Christ.
The religion taught in tho biblo is
of such as to exclude all differences
as regards the station of life. It
throws all upon one common level,
socially, morally and religiously. Pure
and undofiled religion before God is
to visit the fatherless aud the widow
m their affliction, see James I chap.
27tli verse. We understand this to
moan all person?, irrespective of
their station heroin life. Read 2nd
chapter of James. Bat, Messrs. Ed¬
itors, such is life, if a pool man
loses a horse or a cow it w talked of,
and a few words expressed in sympa¬
thy to tho loser and the bowels of
their compassion is closed against
the loser. 8eo 1st John, 3rd chap.
17th verse. Then consider the true
principal of the religion of the bible,
then turn and road Mathew 25 chap.
41 to 45 verses inclusive.
