us to take, and others do not take the
name Christ wants all His people to
take, We are not at fault. All people
who claim to be followers of Christ
should give up human names, and take
upon themselves the name Christian,
which means something. If a dozen
ministers of different denominations
were asked Can a man be Christian
without belonging to your denomnia-
tom" Each one would say. yes So
decentralization so-called. is not
needed, but to be Christian is the one
thing needful. This is all we urge.
If man be true Christian, and be
a member of the Church Christ es-
tablished, and walks worthy of his call
ing as such. nothing more is needful.
Anything else would be burdensome.
But brethren, this is not all. Nehemiah
also had to put doors upon the gates
after the walls were rebuilt. Many
doors and many gates are needful for
the complete protection of Spiritual Je-
rusalem Attendance upon all the
means of grace. personal work for the
Master, knowledge of the Bible and of
the work of our brotherhood: a large
and liberal support of the cause Of
Christ, at home and abroad, giving our
selves to Christ, and last, but not least.
cooperation of all our forces. These
are some of the doors needful. If we
believe in this plea. We will do these
things. Thus each man building before
his own door, and all keeping the wall
strong Doors will be strong, and we
will convince the world Of the divine
source and power of our plea, and help
in the great work Of bringing the world
to the Christ"
