John E. Barnard, Pastor of East Side Baptist Church. Text: “They first gave their own selves to the Lord and then to us through the will of the Lord —2 Cor. S:6 Of all the fundamental principles of Christianity, the principle of giving is the most important. Giving is neces sarily or essentially the principal prin ciple of Christianity. Or. stated in other words. Christianity is necessarily or es sentially a religion of giving That re igion which has in it no principle of giving is no Christianity at all. Rob Christianity of the principle of giving and you cut out of Its bosom the very heart of our holy religion, leaving us with nothing but a lifeless corpse, or a grinning skeleton. Eliminate the prin ciple of giving from Christianity and you have a religion with no God, and prov der; no Christ and no salvation; no holy spirit and no sanctification; no church and no gospel. I Giving is God-like, Godly, or lik“ God. 1. My first proof of this proposition s John 3; 16, God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, etc. If God had never been a benevo lent God and had never given His own Son to atone for the sins of this old world there never would have been, yea, never could have been, any such glorious doctrine as salvation from sin. God .oved and therefore God gave Where there is no love there is no giv ing. Therefore, where there is no giv ng there is no love. The mother loves her ch Id therefore she gives her life, if need be, for her child God loves us, therefore He gave His Son for us. The giving of His Son is the most unmia takab e evidence that He loves us. 2. God gave the best He had when He gave His Son for us. Heaven con tained no other treasure so valuable or so precious as His own Son, Jesus Christ. This gift of God in the person of His own Son is the only gift that wmi precious or valuable enough to satisfy the demands of divine justice. The God of mercy loved us so strongly that He was willing to meet every demand of the God of Justice.- infinite justice de manded an infinite sacrifice by an in finite person to satisfy the demands of justice for an infinite law so willfully violated by finite man. 3. God gave all that He possessed, when He gave His own Son for us. He that spared not His own Son. but delivered Him up for us all. how shall he not also with Him freely give us all things? We see in the above passage that God not only gave His own Son. but that in the gift of His Son He gave us all things Oh. the wonderful inher itance. the - inexpressible inheritance, the indescribable inheritance the in estimable inheritance to which a child of God falls by having such a benevo lent God as his Heavenly Father. 4 How shall He not freely give us all things? The only way that our be. nevolent God can give is freely. Let us show our appreciation of the wonderful gift He has bestowed on us, by being like Him; that Is, by freely giving our ownselves and all we have to Him. Thanks be unto God for His unspeak able gift! It is very clear in the light of what has been said that it is like God to give. Therefore, the Godly man will give, and he who does not give is unlike God, or is ungodly. Also, it is like God or Godly, to give the best you have There fore, the man who is like God, or Godly, will give the best he has. The ungodly will not give the best he has There fore the man who refuses to give the best he has is an ungodly man. It is like God, or Godly _ to give all that one has Therefore, ’the Godlike, or God y man will give all that he has before he will see the cause of our holy religion suffer. It is unlike God. or un godly. not to give. Therefore, the stingy man or the man who will not give is ungodly. It is like God to give freely. Therefore, the Godly man will give not grudgingly but freely. The un godly will not give freely, therefore those who do not give freely are un godly. Let each of us examine ourselves' as to whether or not we give. Do we give the best we have? Do we give all that we have? Do we give freely? Remem ber the poor widow who gave all of her living. That was all she had. Meas ured by our gifts, isn’t our love miser able and pitiable compared to what God has done and continues to do for us? 11. Giving is Christ-like, Or Like Chrißt. The good shepher giveth his life for the sheep. Giving is not only God-liUe, or Godly, but it is Christ-like, or like Christ Christ loved the church and gave himself for It. If we love Christ and His church we will give ourselves, our best and our all. to Him and the church Of all the characteristics that stand out so prominently in the life of Christ that of giving is the most prominent. Had Christ not been saturated and ab solutely possessed by the principle of giving, He never could have been the Savior from sin which He is so clearly pictured to be in our Holy Bible. Christ emptied, or gave up. Himself and be came obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. If any man hath not the spirit of Christ he Is none of His. That is what God says. We have already seen that one spirit that char acterized, possessed, filled, overflowed and dominated the life of Jesus Christ is the spirit of giving. And yet God says: “If any man hath not the spirit of Chrißt he is none of His.” The word of God for it. The man who has not the spirit of giving has not the spirit of Christ. The people who are always objecting to giving do not manifest the spirit of Jesus our Savior. Please do not misunderstand me when I speak of giving especially when I speak of giving liberal.y. A man might give abundantly and then give grudg ingly, as the devil gives up a sou! that trusts in Jesus Christ The widow who gave her two mites gave liberally, will ingly and cheerfully’ On the other hand, one might give only a nickel, and yet give it with a desire to keep it, or a regret to part from it.

Who are the witnesses They are Cartersville people— Residents of Cartersville who have had kidney backache, kidney ills, blad der ills; who have used Doan's Kidney Pills. These witnesses endorse Doan's. One Cartersville resident who speaks is J. C Herring, West Ave He says: "1 have never hesitated to recommend Doans Kidney Pills to those I hear complaining of kidney trouble. I can say that they have proven beneficial to me and fully merit the confidence I have placed in them. I will gladly tell anyone of my reasons for so highly praising Doan’s Kidney Pills. I never feel any symptom of the old complaint now.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan s Kidney Pills —the same that Mr. Her ring had Foster-Milburn Go.. Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y—adv. his nickel and at the same time say: “When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain. But we shall still be Joined in heart And hope to meet again.” 1 When we give w should do so in the same spirit that led Jesus Christ to give His life a ransom for us. Those who are always opposing those who give, and those who advocate giving, are fighting the very principle that has al ways been back of our holy religion. They are opposing God; they are in op position to Jesus, about whom they sing, and doubtless shout, when they sing "Oh, how I love Jesus, because He first loved me.” Yes thank God Jesus and and first love us, but as a result of his wonderful love for us He gave Himself for us. If we love Him with the same kind of love with which He loves us, and if we do not love him with that same kind of love, we do not love Him at al!—we will give to Him and to the upbuilding of His kingdom “If any man hath not the spirit of Christ he is none of His.” Please remember that the spirit of Christ is the spirit of giv ing. The first statement made in the mes sage of the hour stands true, viz., “Of all the fundamental principles of Chris, tianity, the principle of giving is the most Important.” It has been proven true because it is like God to give— God gave His Bon, and that is Christ like to give—Christ gave Himself for us If there were nothing else to be said on these two points or nothing to be said on any other point, the original proposition would be proven But there are other reasons why that giving is the most important of all the Christian fundamentals. 111. My third reason for the bold as sertion in the opening statement of this message is this; It is Impossible to be t Christian without possessing the prln. ciple of giving. They first gave their ownselves to the Lord. One may get into the church with giving their own self to the Lord; but they cannot get into the Kingdom without thus giving up their ownself. Please upte what it is one gives, and to whom they give, when they become a Christian. They give not their self- That is the great trouble with most churches today; they are filled up with people who have given on,y their self to the Lord; but those Macedian breth ren gave their OWN selves to the Lord. There is a vast difference btaween giv ing yourself and your OWN self to Him The Jews did not crucify our Lord be cause He cla med to be God s Soti but because He claimed to be God s OWN Son. They did not object to Jesus claiming to be s.mp!y> the So no£ G-d, but they did object seriously to H-m saying that He was Gods OWN Son. Notice the intnsifled form of the pro noun their OWN selves, not simply their selves Do you claim to be Grds eh M and then say that you do not be lieve in giving? Then you have never given your OWN self to the Lord, and thererore have never been regenerated If you have never been regenerated, then you are yet in the galj of bitter ness and in the bonds of In quity. Where cne gives their Own self to the Lord they cannot be contented un. til they i.ave pubi c y confessed Him be fore the world; taken their stand with the people of God laying their own selves and all they possess on the altar of God, placing the.r own selves and what they possess at God's disposal. 1 shall never forget the day that Jesus washed tt y sins away. How did it hap pen? It was at a Monday morning ser vice. The l ttle boy had been under conviction about two years, but at this Monday morning service the conviction was deeper than ever. 1 knew I was lost, guilty, ruined, undone and a con demned s nner deserving the hottest lied in hell, because 1 had rejected and spurned the lovingly offered mercies of God. The preacher gave an opportunity for penitents to request prayer. I went, but did not take my seat and look around over the house I did not bury my face in my hands but I fell pros trate on the floor, crying out for mercy in the language of the poet— "Show pity, Lord O Lord forgive, Let a repenting rebel live. Are not Thy mercies large and free. May not a sinenr trust in Thee?” Then when I cried: "Rut drops of gr ef can ne’er repay The debt of love I owe Here, Lord, 1 give myself to Thee, it Is all that I can do.” Then, and not till then, did the Lord flood my thirsty soul with the waters of everlasting salvation I gave my ownself to the Lord for time and eternity, and I have been His every troment from that t me until now, a'd blessed be God I shall ever be H s throughout an endless eternity Let come what may. I belong to God, body mind, soul and sp rit. First, because Jesus gave His ownself for me. and sec ond, because I gave my own self to Jesus Demons may yell, and hell may rage I am God’s forever and forever. IV. Not only Is It proven that giving is the most Important fundamental principle of Christianity by the fact that God gave His own Son, also that Son gave Himself for us, and that each Christian gave their own self to the Lord at the time of their regeneration; but the same truth is proven from the fact that in addition to giving His own Son. and giving us salvation through His son. He continues to g ve us all spiritual and temporal blesßings as we need them from day to day. The fact that our God is a benevolent God is th e only hope for our earthly joy, comfort and happiness after we become chil dren of God by faith in Christ Jesus. It Is our benevolent God who gives health, strength, food, raiment breath, sunshine and all other temporal bless ings; with the open Bible, salvation the fullness of the spirit, holy desirea and ambitions, and finally a beautiful and an eternal home in heaven and im mortal glory. V. Finally, the truth of this subject is proven from the fact that when we shall have arrived at our heavenly home, and are enjoying its beauties and blessings, we will continue to give. Preaching may cease; there will be no need of repenting, no need of church houses no need of begging people to pray for our children; no need of any thing that belongs to time's side of eternity; but one of several things that will continue throughout eternity "is that of giving. We shal’ continue to give all honor, all glory, all power and all majesty to Him who loved us and gave Himself for us. We shall gladly join in singing the old song we enjoy so much in our churches— Oh, that with yonder sacred throng We at H s feet may fall; We'll Join the everlasting throng, And crown Him Lord of all 82 Years Old and As Good as a Youngster “Seven or eight years ago I was a very sick man.
