PAID IN FULL While wintering in Thomasville some twenty-five years ago, the late Mark Hanna in comimny with time millionaire friends visited the local colored church. The sermon was in full swing when they arrived, and not wishing to attract overmuch attention these men of affairs seated themselves unobtrusively on the hack bench. Alas, for human whims! They were observed by the pastor, who immediate ly began to draw (for the benefit of his membership presumably) a realis tic picture of the church's finances. One by one he enumerated their deficits, and last, but not least, the sad condi tion of arrears into which the pastor’s salary had fallen. “Now, brethren, whilst our minds an’ hearts is on de subjec', we mought as well tak' up de collection. Be ex librul ez you kin, breddren!” he ex horted. and, as an afterthought. “I notice our white Men’s is wid us.” Two woolly-headed pillars of the church, with hats extended, began the rites of the offering. Few and far be tween were the coins deposited, and no one seemed to Ik* embarrassed at the omission. Interest was in abeysauce. Necks were unbelievably elastic. Fi nally the collector reach the “big four," each of whom dropped in a SIOO bill. The hats were returned to the altar, where they were turned inside out. The pastor counted the coins hurried ly. but smoothed out the banknotes with infinite care, incredulity strug gling with eyesight. A beatific smile broke over tiie ebony features as the shrewdest pastor in Georgia stuffed the bills greedily into his pocket and to his expectant flock spoke thus: “Niggers, I’se happy to announce to you dat, Tanks to our white breddren, yore pastor’s salary am paid!” Mrs. J. W. Saunders, In Atlanta Journal. Winder, Ga. Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic Stops Malaria, Restores Strength and Energy. 60c C. M. THOMPSONS WEEKLY LETTER In Mark 12:17. “Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s and unto God the things which are God's.” Now many people, who rant for the Master and belabor themselves much to get you to pay a tribute to God, things which are earthly and soon pass away. 'The tribute you owe to God is not money nor valuable if so men could buy their way into heaven. The tribute God wants is your love, service and obedience to his will. The tribute a ruler wants is earthly and it is cash, coin, currency, or its equiva lent, and this we should pay him. In Dent. I find “Thou shalt rear and serve the Lord. Ist. Chronicles: “Serve him with a perfect heart" and other sections of the bible I find “by love serve one an other. Ye serve the Lord Christ. Turn from idols to serve God. They served him in the temple. Serving God day and night.” These are tributes of ser vice. Now as to love: “Love the Lord thy God. Love mercy, love your enemies. If ye love me keep my commandments, love on another. These are commanded tributes of man to God. Now let us think of obedience as a tribute. Be obedient to his voice. If obedient you shall eat good of the land. Blessed are you if you obey the Lord. To obey is better than sacrifice. Amend your ways and obey. Obey God rather than man. By faith Abraham obeyed God. These are a few of the tributes you are to pay to God. Not money for he says in Isaiah. He rendered with out money. In Matthew, Jesus paid tribute to the ruler in coin money. In Acts 8:20: Thy money perish with thee. Now if God wished a tribute in mon ey he would not have made an expres sion like this. Love of money is the root of all evil. Then this great pow er —money —for which preachers beg, pass around a container each service in order that they may be in posses sion of more of his “root of all evil." If your parents have a chill and love it as you should you will give to it of your bounty wi bout the begging. If you love your Master as you should no collection at church service is neces sary; you will act quickly and give of your love, service and obedience to God’s will and commands, less the preacher’s persuasion, j Money an earthly commercial com modity made to pass on and if you pass jit on to a preacher he has the pleasure of saying who shall pass it on. If you put it where the greater good can be accomplished you have made a good choice. I have never been able to lind a -single line in the bible where money held influence in obtaining in any mail er an easier entrance to the Anal hour You may own your millions and spend them and go to a woeful place. One bible character was told to sell his riches and give to the poor. He did not say put it in the church treasury. | If money was of as much value in saving souls as we would think, some men seem to think, what a pity our miuts don’t run day and night. Any scarce metal may become a money. One time tobacco was the chrrency, and what would you think if money was made of tobacco. How much of this lilthy weed do you suppose our preach ers would like to place before the Lord? The Lord don’t want it; lie is not look ing for it and you need not expect to pay tribute to God with any such tri fles as gold, silver, diamonds uor auy j thing of a worldly nature. The average preacher of today says about as much about money every time | lie preaches as Christ did in his whole career. Now, do not get it into your head that I oppose the use ot money. Asa church you need money and you have stewards or a finance committee, so leave such matters to them and attend to these matters in your business hours. Unburden your pastor with the thought of money. Let his whole time be given to the study of the word that he may be well prepared to give a new thought each time he stands be fore you. If we go to church and hear the same feeble story and frazzle-worn il lustration then don’t complain if some one falls to sleep in his pew or stays at home for a change. Let us he temperate in all things. Now this tits in the sense of church fi nance as well as in anything. You expect too much of a preacher, some of you let him do all of your thinking—praying, singing, preaching and finance the whole business. Now, let us get busy, keep the preacher’s mind free from worry about anything that is mine and yours to do, and pay unto Caesar the things which are his and unto God that which he wills. When Moses taught the children he took no collection did he? When Jesus went into a mountain his disciples came and he preached to them. We have no proof of a collection. Judas was the custodian of coin that was handed in, and what became of him may he true of us who strive for the filthy lucre. • I thank you. C. M.
