Hull For Auguot 13, 3 Cor. 9:1-15. Golden Text: “In aU Uunfa X gavo you an lunpli. that so laboring ye ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jeuun, that He Him self aald. 'lt la more blessed to give to receive. ” —Act. 30:35. When Paul wrote the second letter to the Corinthians which has oeen preset', ed for us (the probabilities are that he wrote at least four to them). >e outlined to them tin chapters 8 and S, the most essenial facts tn the mat ter of how a Christian should give. In his first letter iwhich we have) he had told them concerning the collect ioA that ever) one without exception should give every week ithat is. systematical; ly) as God had prospered them (that is, •proportionately). They had started out well; but, like many another collection, .the last part of it was not as easy as fthe nrat. So he wrote them that he nad appointed Titus, chairman. Timothy and Krastus as a committee to come down and help them Anlsh the work. Their splendid start had inspired the Macedonian churches to give most lib erally in spite of their poverty; in fact, <he Macedonians were unusual in that they had come to him and asked the privilege of giving la most unusual thing these days at least), and bad given themselves first. The Corinthians had abounded so in other- graces that Paul wanted them to ahojind in the grace of giving also. He wanted each one to give as he was able. It Is the readiness of mind which accompanies the gift that God loves. Every member of the canvass com mittee, writes Paul, will call on you, and you must do your best, because 1 have been bragging on you to the Mace uonians. The committee will call on _.ou. and help you with your gifts. Re member. however, that the law of the physical world holds good in this—sow sparingly, reap sparingly; sow bounti fully. reap bountifully, Let each of you give what he has made up his mind to give, not grudgingly, nor because be has to. but because he wants to; lor God loves a hilarious giver. When you give that way, God is able to give you all you need, so that you will always be able to respond to any cal! made on you. and have enough to meet any emergency of your own. (Note the relation of verse 8 to verses 6 and 17 A stingy man prevents God from giv ing him the best gifts. There are many men and women who are church mem bers and good people—that is. negative ly good, they do nothing outrageously wrong and even live a fairly good life — who have no power; and this is the rea son: they are so stingy. God cannot give them this blessing. They have closed up their hearts, and even God cannot put His best gifts in. ’The liberal soul shall be made fat." "He that watereth shall be watered" “Cast thy bread npon the waters, and .thou j*halt ..nd it after many davs." Fes. and find it layer cake at that. Stinginess tendeth to pov* erty). Then Paul added, this service of yours, this giving will do three tilings— *lt will supply the saints; it will bring a blessing to you through their prayers ’for you: and jt will bring glory to Got! that the gospel has taken such a hold on you and that you have proven that your persona! salvation is a purse-and all salvation.

In this scriptural presentation of our relationship to our material possessions in their relationship to the kingdom of God, there is one most essential point If we get that, there is no difficulty afterward. The Macedonians "first gave themselves" to God. The question naturally arises, what part of His money (since we are deal ing with that) does He want for His particular needs? What part of His moneq does He want me to use for my particular needs? How shall 1 use that part? The scripture is very plain—the tithe, or 10 per cent of one’s income, is the minimum that shall be used for Him This is not optional, it is obligatory The man, or, woman, or, boy. or girl, who fails to pay the tithe is robbing God (Mat. 3:8). Some will say. the tithe is an Old Testament law. Yes, it existed before the Mosaic law (Gen. 14:20), it was in corporated by Moses into that law, and it was approved by Christ (Matt. 23:23). It bears the same relation to the New Testament Christian that the Sabbath does. One-seventh of time is peculiar ly God’s, and so is one-tenth of income. If you reject the law of the tithe, you must also reject the law of the Sab bath. Others will say the tithe is too much for the poor man and too little for the rich man. I agree with the latter; 1 deny the former because God has or dered it and nine-tenths plus God is more than ten-tenths minus God. It is harder for a man making ten dollars a week to live on nine dollars than it is for a man making one hundred dol lars a week to live on ninety. But it is easier for the first to give one dol lar than it is for the second to give ten dollars. The largest proportionate number of tithers are among those on small salaries. Tithing will result in a sufficiency. The church needs funds today because its members arc robbing God. Not more than 2 per cent is paid into God’s treasury—B per cent is being embezzled. The practice of tithing would solve the financial problems of the church —it has done It in a number of instances, and it would do away with the shameful prac tice of making God a beggar as is done in church fairs, bazars, etc. But what about the nine-tenths? That should be used just as religiously as the one-tenth for it all belongs to God. A man should get with that whatever he needs to make him most efficient as (aid’s servant; but nothing more. Giving demonstrates our love; love knows no law but to obey. To obey re quires that we pay the tithe. The man who doesn’t pay the tithe shows how little he loves. May God make us all hilarious givers, shouting as we give, because we get so much fun out of it. For remember the words of our Lord Jesus, that He said. It is more joy to give than to get.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1916. Grain (By Associated Press.) CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—Notwithstanding that the wheat market overtopped at times today the highest prices of the previous sessions, trading was relatively contracted in volume and the fluctuations as a rule did not exceed the usual limits. What fresh strength developed was largely due to reports of unseasonable early frost In Canada and to reports of eager European de mand. On the other hand, many holders, judg ing that perhaps crop damage had been discount ed, evidenced a disposition to realize profits. Opening prices, which ranged from lM>c decline to 2c advance, with September at and December at $1.48@1.48K, were followed by a material setback all around and then a rise to well above yesterday’s finish. Later the high price seemed to make wheat buyers more timid and a bearish reaction took place. Some of the weakness was attributed to peace talk. The close was unsettled, to % net lower with Septemb'er at f 1.44 to f 1 .44% and December at sl4<Ti. Won! of scattered showers bad a bearish ef fect on corn. Buyers were scarce. After open ing 'i to l>ic lower the market underwent a further sag but later rallied to a moderate extent. Subsequently wheat weakness acted as more than an offset in corn for increasing complaints of drought in Illinois. The close was nervous at 1 to IM@% net decline. , s Heavy sellng weakened oats. Most of the pressure came from specuators. High quotations on hogs lifted provisions. Of ferings were light. CHICAGO QUOTATIONS The following were the ruling prices In ths 'xchange today: 1 Pr«v.

December contracts eased off to 14.42 and January to 14.50, shortly after the call or about 28 to 30 points under yesterday’s high level. Western houses were buyers again, however, while a pri vate cable said Liverpool seemed to have been pretty well sold out. and prices here steadied toward the end of the first hour. New Orleans also meadied up toward the mid dle of the morning, while the renewal of local bul support was enc/mra.ce/1 by reports of con tinued dry hot weather in Okahoma and prices worked back to within 5 or 6 points of last night’s closing figures with December selling at 14.53 and January at 14.63. Demand then tapered off again and there were reactions of 8 or 9 points later with the market quiet but rather nervous nnd unsettled around midday. Trading was more active during the early aft ernoon with the tone nervous and unsettled. Aft er working up to 14.58 for December and 14.68 for January on western buying and covering by early sellers, the market turned easier under renewed liquidation and sold off *<•> 14.43 for December and 14.50 for Janunrv nf/er 2 o’clock, or about 16 to 19 points net low"- Spot cot ton. steady.
