T HREE times did the Apostle Paul use the expression "My gospel." We are not to understand that he la speaking In discredit of the gos pel. according to Matthew or Mark or Luke or John. These are not the sords of a bigot. Paul was a large man. larger than any other of his contemporaries, but the gospel wns larger than Paul. Other apostles had their gospel, their revela tion and experience of Christ, and theirs was not In all aspeets Identical with Paul's. We need not be afraid to admit this. It Is the glory of the gospel that no one man comprehended Christ exclusively. With different per sonalities and each from hla own pe* collar point of view, the dlsclplea looked at Christ and heard Him. We should 'therefore expect to find Just what we do find, four gospels, neither one of which taken nlnne telle all the truth about Christ. The West Indies are a long chain of Islands, Cuba, San Domingo, 'Porto Rica, Jamaica, seem ing to be widely and completely sep- srated from earh other, each one a lovely' tropical Jewel resting on the beaming bosom of the sea. But If you look 'below the surface of the ocean you discover that each of these Islands Is bound to all the others, that In fact they are only the high points of a single coral mountain submerged. So that whilst each Island seems to be separate, all rest upon nnd are a part of the vast and substantial unity which lies far below. It Is so with the gospels, John's gospel and Paul’s gospel. They are In essence and unity one gospel. When Paul says. "My gospel,” he speaks aa a traveler would of "My ship" or "My train.” It was his gos pel, It was the means of his salva tion. It was his because he was es pecially Instructed In It. It was his because he had been divinely and defi nitely entrusted with It. It was his because he loved It. It was his because he lived It. It was his because he suf fered for it. And supremely Paul means that what he calls "My gospel" was his because It was truth which he realised as truth. He had no doubt about what he calls "My gospel He could preach with the ring of certainty In nls heart. The man who could say, "For me to live Is Christ." “Neverthe- ■-** }t Is not I who live, but Christ that tlveth In me," could say, "My gos pel." without challenge. Your Gospel. Every Christian ought to be able to ,say "My gospel." We often felicitate ourselves that we have the gospel, that v® have the Bible, and we assert oft- times what ts not worth asserting. The only gospel a man has In the real sense le what he has In him. There le an expression In our language—Blbllola- try—the worship of the Bible as a Book. It la a criticism especially lev eled at Protestants. Let us be warned sufficiently to remember that the word must needs become flesh before It was powerful. We-know of Christ by the revelation In a Book, but we know Christ In salvation only by the Holy Ghost. Gospel preaching and gospel wit nessing are by an Incarnation. At least that was what Christianity was to Paul. Emerson's remark holds good. "Only ao much do I know as I have lived." If a man cannot say "My gospel” It may be questioned If, with all possible acquaintance with the Bible and tech nical knowledge of the things of Christ and all adeptness In handling Scripture, he can teach to another the way of salvation. In the annals of the South ern ministry there is a notable illustra tion. There was a young man gifted as few men are—a genius. At the present moment he Is before the public winning favor ae an orator, author and playwright. He Altered the Chris tian ministry.' He rose like a meteor. He was the pride of thousands. In less than five years he forged his way by quick bounda to the center of public attention In New York city, where he preached to vast audiences. Then a resounding crash. He flung off hla ministerial calling. He le out of the pulpit forever. Hie own frank explana tion la pathetic enough. He said he found himself preaching hie father’s theology ahd the experience of others, and was too honest to keep It up. I have thought of that man. He rode triumphantly across my boyish Imagi nation. I have thought of him with a pang of personal sorrow. Oh, I wish ho could have said “My gospel." "Should all the forme that men devise Assault his faith with treacherous art He'd call them varieties and lies; And bind his gospel to his heart." Good Newt. The most searching question that Is evdr asked one le the queetlon I put to myself: "What Is my gospel?" Now. I dare not In earnest answer to that self-scrutiny presume to claim that I hare a message evolved in my own consciousness or received as a personal revelation which I may'hold In a sort of spirited patent-right. But I have "my gospel" nevertheless. It Is what I would tell men If my life was crowded to Its' lost hout of opportunity. If you will exsmlne the ltth and 19th verses of the 5th chapter of II Corinth ians, you will find the authority for "my gospel." "God hath given to ue the mlnetry of reconciliation: to-wlt, that God was In Christ reconciling the world unto Him self, not Imputing their trespasses unto 'them.' And hath committed unto ua the word of reconciliation." The first fact about "my gospel." the fact that determines the mood and spirit of Its ministry, the fact that I must not at any time neglect, le that It le good news. It Is the glad tidings of the grace of God. In the privacy of a heart-to-heart corre spondence with hie Intimate personal friend, Paul once let fall a rare sen tence. He called the gospel "the glo- OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO o o O "According to My Goapel."— O O II Timothy ii:8. O O 0 OO00OO0OO0O0OaOOOO0 REV. DR. JOHN E. WHITE. rlous good news of the happy God.” The music of the goepel Is written In the- key of Joy. I have been com missioned, If I rightly appreciate the Christian ministry, to preach this word of reconciliation, to proclaim aa powerfully as I can everywhere and to everybody that God It- not angry tilth men, but le reconciled, and that they mutt be reconciled to. Him If they would be saved. In order not to be misunderstood, let me make a dis tinction not very generally observed. My gospel and my theology are not Identical. My theology Is such sys tematised creed of God and His work ing aa I may have. It Includes the gospel, but Includes, In addition, a sys tem of doctrines and a series of truths that can not be called "glad tidings." There Is truth with respect to tin and retributive Justice, for Instance. It Is truth older than the revelation of Christ. It was truth before Christ came. It would be truth had he not come. I can not blink that truth. I muat tell It-to men. however solemn Its Import. But when I tell It, when I eet up the awful background of tin's guilt and the dark shadows fall over the souls of men, I mutt hasten then to iny real ministry—the ministry of the good news. It will help ue some, I think, to keep our mlnde well hack with the prlmltve preachers snd their mode of preaching the goepel. They acted like men who went forth aa heralds. They were sent, not ao much to educate, to dispute and argue, aa to proclaim tidings, to bear testimony to facts. Plainly, the main message, the paaalonate business of ths church, was to tell the story of Jesus and His love. It has been pointed out aa of some algnlfleance that when Christ delivered what Is railed hie Inaugural, lie took for Hts text a passage In Isaiah Ixl. but when ho read It In the syna gogue, he omitted one statement of the prophet. "He hath anointed me to preach the day of vengeance of our God." In Luke Iv, you may note that omis sion If you will, nnd attarh to It euch Importance as you choose. It coincides with the spirit of Christ's ministry In the main, at least, that He did not apply those words of ths proph et to Himself. He did not, aa He said, ''come to condemn the world." To the Corinthians, Paul declared: “I determined not to know anything among you save Jeaus Christ and Him crucified." He probably Hid not mean that he would make no reference to the awful fart and the still more aw ful doom of eln. But he did mean that what he sald about this or other matters would be overshadowed by the cross. When last Sunday, 1 preached to you on the Judgment, I wondered afterwards If at the last J had been fully loyal to "My Gospel.” It la bun gling work that misses the chance against such a gloomy background of shadow and despair to lift the shining cross. There Is no truth of the law that has the right to the whole stage, no fact so great and Important In the enlendar of Judgment that the love of Ood should not go up Immediately be side It. "If we must speak of Judgment, let us ever have close at hand the goepel to take the sting out of our Indig nation." "By the' space of three years. I ceased not to warn every one, night and day, with teare.” In the biography of D. L. Moody, we are told In his own words of the turning point of his great svnngellsm. It dated from the day In which he learned to place the love of God before everything else, and almost Instead of everything else. In his absence, he allowed a young Englishman lo preach in hie pulpit rather reluctantly. When he returned,-he asked his wife: "How Is ths young Englishman com ing on? How do the people like hlin?" “They like him very much. He has preached two sermons from that verse of John, 'God so loved the world that He gave hie only begotten Son, thnt whosoever betleveth In Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' And I think you will Ilka him, though he preaches a little differently from you. He telle the worst sinners that God loves them.” "Well, then, he Is wrong!" said Moody. . Kng- Mr. For seven nights, the llshman, Henry Morehouf that one text. He co Moody. "He Just best that truth down Into my heart," he said, "anil I hnvc never doubted It since. I need to preach that God was behind the elnner with a double-edged sword, ready lo hew him down. But I hnvc got done with thnt. I preach now thnt God Is behind him with love, nnd he Is running awny from the Ood of love." "My gospel" Is the good news lo Ihe sinner who Is running awny from ths God of love. Several years ago. a party was vis iting the famous Mnmirotb Cave of Kentucky. A lady becatio detached from the party and eras not mt“*ed until all were out In ths open nlr. The eun had set. They returned nnd searched In vain. Thnt night and all next day. the old negro guide search ed for the missing womnn. Imagine the horror of her situation. She wan dered In the darkness, stumbling nnd falling nnd overcome with terror. Ugly shapes fashioned themselves on every dripping wall. Her footsteps in ths sllsnre emjnded echoes of deepnlr. Her reason was almost gone. During the second night of hie aeareh, the old negro caught sight "f her and pursued. She saw his fate in the glare of the torch, and It w»s as the fare of a flend to her distorted Imagination. She fled screaming. Ho caught her at last, aa she fled from Ills receiving hand. She fought with all her remaining strength. But the strong arms of the guide held her till she was at last reassured and brought safely to her friends. The sinner Is lost. He Is beside him self. He dees not realise that God has come to save him. But when he hears nntl bolleven It, he In reconciled and saved. Are ycu rec-jnclletl to Ood? Th-n It Is bers-isc you will not believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. T HERE Is a certain materialistic philosophy which declares that God exists only In the mind of him who bellevee In Hie existence. There le no profit In a discussion of the stabllty of this proposition. The very existence of a belief In God, In any human mind, Is a sufficient and conclusive proof of His existence. Here is a thought which can not fall to bring comfort and assurance. Whence rnnie this belief In a supreme power upon which the soul muat depend for sustenance and progress; a belief so general, so universal, is to mark, un mistakably, the line of cleavage be tween the man and the brute? It came from no. other source than the heart of God. The belief In God was breath ed into the soul of man by ths very spirit of life which gave him being. Rcllgon, under whatever name and In whatever form, Is but the soul’s unceasing effort to define and to In telligently apprehend God. The development of religion, through all the centuries of man's constantly growing Intellect, has witnessed many grotesque and unworthy conceptions of Deity. Through successive periods of ghost, nature and ancestor worship, civilised man has been led, In hie search after a knowledge of God, to that conception which wan In the mind of Christ, the conception of Deity as a father, absolutely .Impartial, unfail ingly Just, Infinitely kind and loving. It was to this conception of God that Jeeua sought to direct the minds of men, and the early Infancy of the form of religion which bears his name was fed to strength and purity upon this truth. But, alas! "men have sought out many Inventions.” The Deity described In the articles of belief In some of the Christian sects today bears' but slight resemblance to the heavenly Father, who received the adoration of the man of Naxareth. The supreme effort of the Unlver- sallat church lx not to form a new re- tlgon nor to Institute a'new conception of God. It Is simply to call men back from their unhappy theological .wan derings and direct their unsatisfied souls to the simple, direct and unequiv ocal teaching of the founder of Chris tianity, an unhesitating 'faith and trust In the universal fatherhood of God. God Is the father, of all men, re gardless of race or color, regardless of physical, mental, morel or financial condition. Even as His rain falls alike upon the Just and the unjust, so His love goes out. unfailingly and Impar tially, to all of His children, whether they be disobedient and wretched nr obedient and happy. Hla chastening love pursues relentlessly the erring one, and will not forsake him. The punlehment, Instituted, not from mo tives of revenge, but for purposes of salvation, must persist until, wfth contrite heart filled with genuine re pentance, the wanderer turns again, with gladness, Into the path of rlght- TN’MAN FAtlK l'REBRYTERIAN—The (muter.

Ten-t SUPERINTENDENT SOLOMON j REPLIES TO REV. J. E. WHITE: To ills Editor of Ths Georgian: It han been Intimated pretty ntrongly and mors than one* through the At lanta papara by a friend of Ihe temper ance cause that there waa a possibility of having a dispensary Instead of the saloon ayatem. A threat la made against thn liquor dealers of Atlanta to this end, that If they extend the whisky limits In this city, the Law anil Qrdcr commutes, representing the Mlnlatcrs’ Evangelical Association, Dr. John E. White, chair* mnn, would attempt to bring on a pro hibition eleatlon, but If that fails then the dlnpennary question would be con sidered. In a recent Interview with Dr. White, aa reported In The Atlanta Journal, the doctor aaye: "There ts an organisation In Atlanta called Ihe Anti-Saloon League, with which I am not officially connected, but with the purposes of which I am In entire nympathy which may or may not take some steps. In Ihe matter." Certainly wn am very grateful to him for hln sympathy, for personally I esteem him very highly and am nurs he Is quite able, by vlrtqe of hla minis terial position In Georgia, lo do tha cause of temperance In the stale great good. Aa lo hla official connection with Ihe Anil-Saloon League, the doctor's memory Is evidently at fault, for moat assuredly ha Is a member of lha board of directors of the Atlanta I .cage. And It goes without saying the League has greatly missed his valuable services. Wo only regret that our good brother has fnrgoten so Important an obliga tion. Tha temperance causa Is sarred> und next to the snlvatlon </f souIh 1/ Is the moat Important question now- be fore the people. The doctor states that he Is not ap prised as to our attitude toward the question of extending the liquor llmlt/t. Well, I am sorry he In not. We had thought any one who In nt nil acqunlnt- etl with the great principle* nml pur poses of the Anti-Saloon League know* that we are not only opposed to the extension of liquor limits, but to the existence of legallxed liquor traffic In the moat narrow circles. Wo are op posed to the traffic whether It be the llrenaetl saloon or that abominable compromise, the dispensary. The/ urn both evil and destructive to men They are lildiH/ua In the sight of Orel «n.l I lughl to be In the eye# of every lltlrjc man. Neither thle government nor nny oth er government has a right to license a liquor shop or any other den that will pauperise and debauch and ' “ subject". Wa draw tha line sharply. We are unflinchingly opposed to the wholo nefarious, business, licensed sa loons, respectable <?) dlspene.u i--s drinking club houses, etc. We are In the fight lo win. Wa aie going to press It to thn last ditch. We hope by the mercy of Gml to bieuk up ths liquor Iniquity In Georgia. Jenus Christ tnme Into thn world n--t to regulate sin. hut to do away with it; no wt have com* to smash the legalized liquor traffic, not to regulate a. To this end we Invite every genilemnn In Oeorgla to line up with us and light valiantly, and to a finish, for our honor and our lives. • J. r. SOLOMON. Elate Hupcrintendcnt.
