WHfifiLJsß OOUNTx kauiA ALA Mu, ge<>kg t A [bob JONES /nA OMMENTS ON ISSw here ano HEREAFTER. The church is a means to an end and not an end within itself. When a church settles down to build up hereself for the sake of herself, then that church is out of the will of God. That is exactly what is the matter with a lot of our modern churches. The mem bers are trying to build their organization for the sake of them selves and their machinery. The purpose of the church is to wit ness for Jesus Christ and win the lost to Him —not to build her self up and say, “We are rich; weare numerous; we are in fluential’’. The minister has no right to appeal to men to do some thing for the church. The min ister and the church are to ap peal to people to do something for Jesus Christ. The church is not to exalt herself, but to exalt her Lord. There is no place in the world wh re there is a greater oppor tunity to develop real manhood than in the pulpit, and there are no other men who have more temptations to compromise their manhood than preachers. It takes -real courage to be a great preach er. A preacher ought to bt courageous enough to challenge kings on their thrones. He must be fearless enough to speak out even though he is a lone voice and nobody believes what he says God gives us courageous anc fearless ministers of the gospel, ministers who know the truth, believe the truth, and preach the truth. Nicodemus, who called on Jesus jne night, said to him, “No man can do these miracles that thou doest except God be with him”. Nicodemus recognized that the miracles were the credentials of the deity of Jesus. If Jesus was not the son of God, how can men explain the miracles He wrought? . Who else but the Son of God can ; raise the dead? The people said, : “Never man spake as Jesus' spake”. We must admit that no I man has wrought such miracles ! is were wrought by the Savior of; the world No wonder all evangeli ial Christians say of Him, “My I Lord and my God”.
