Below We give our res ders brief sy
nopsis Of DR.. q. G.. Booths sermon, which
was delivered at the A. M. E. church con
ference recently held at Mt. Peasant. DR.
Booth is considered very scholarly gen
tleman. He is pastor of Quinn Chape
church at Chicago:
The text was II am come to set fire or
| the earth. But l have baptism to bt
baptized with; and how am I straiteneC
| till it be accomplished" Luke, ~ 80 so
Among other things the doctor said
This fire spoken of here was not the fire
that came down upon the sacrifice offered
upon Mt. Carmel hy Elijah. The fire
spoken OF here is the word of God. and
Gods holy spirit as it works upon the
hearts Of men. DO you not know that
fire in its nature consumes that which
is corruptibleP II was SO in the day Of
Pentecost. 1t has been so III individual
cases. st. Paul ON his way to Damascus.
Luther OH his way after truth discovered
this fact. Many since that day have felt
the fro burning upon the main altar Of
their hearts. Gods fire sometimes brings
us pain only that the dross may be burned
away, and in Gods hottest fire we should
be still.
That fire kindles love to God. thaws
out indifference and burns as it did in the
case Of the two disciples on their way to
Emmans. We want to see this fire kin
died IN every heart, because it will melt
away that which is wrong and thaw ont
the indifference Of race to race. Let tie
fire burn. Berter the suffering and the
pain than the disease.
!. Gods children are living children be-
cause He lives they live. In the gospel
fire and light are joined inseparably. The
fire Of God is bound up with truth. 1t
is not stolen fire, like that which Prone
theus, stole from Jupiter. 1t must de
asked for, The first requisite Of a preach
er is to know Him whom to know Alright
is everlasting. Words Of mere eloquence
may tickle the fancy but will not lift up to
Christ. We want conveated ministry,
having the baptism Of fire. Some men
use the gifts that God has given them for
their own glory.
Let the fire burn in your hearts my
brothers as you 60 forth into the world,
