thropies. Never mind the blind eyes,
and the deaf ears, and the crippled
limbs, and the darkened intellects Let
paralyzed old age pick up it's own food,
and orphans fight their own way, and
the half reformed go back to their evil
habits. Forward, march We great army
Of infdels and atheists, and with your
battleaxes heW down the cross and
split up the manager of Bethlehem
On, ye great army of infidels and
atheists, and now they come to the
graveyards and the cemeteries of the
earth. Pull down the sculpture above
Greenwood gate, for it means the res
direction. Tear away at the entrance
of Laurel Hill the figure of Old Mortal
ity and the chise1. On, We great army of
infidels and atheists, into the grave
yards and cemeteries, and where you
see, 'tAsleep In Jesus" cut it away,
and where you find a marble story of
heaven, blast it, and when you find
over little child's grave, ''Suffer little
children to come unto me, substitute
the words "delusion" and ''sham, and
where you find an angel in marble,
strike off the wing, and when you come
to family vault, chisel on the door,
'Dead once, dead forever"
But on, ye great army of infidels and
atheists, on They will attempt to scale
heaven. There are heights to be taken.
Pile hill on hill, and Pelion upon Ossa,
and then they hoist the ladders against
the walls of heaven. On and on until
they blow up the foundations of jasper
and the gates of pearl. They charge up
the steep. Now they aim for the throne
| of him who liveth forever and ever.
They would take down from their high
place the Father, the Son, the Holy
Ghost. ''Down with theml'' they say.
'Down with them from the thronel'
they say. Clown foreverl Down out
of sightl He is not God. He has no
right to sit there. Down with himi
Down with Christi
| Turned Back to Savasery.
| A world without a head, a universe
without king. Orphan consultations
Fatherless galaxies. Anarchy supreme.
A dethroned Jehovah. An assassinated
God. Patricide, regicide, decide. That
is what they mean. That is what they
will have, if they can. I say, if they
can. Civilization hurled back into
semibarbarism, and standardization
driven back into Hottentot savagery
The wheel of progress turned the other
way and turned toward the dark ages.
The clock. of the centuries put back
2, 600 years. Go back, you Sandwich
Islands, from your schools, and from
your colleges and from your reformed
condition, to what you were in 1920,
when the missionaries first came Call
home the 500 missionaries from India
and overthrow their 1000 schools,
where they are trying to educate the
heather, and scatter the no. 900 little
children that they have gathered out
of barbarism into civilization. Obliter-
ate all the work of DR.. Duff in India,
of David Abel in China, of DR.. King
in Greece, of Judson in Burma, of
David Brainerd amid the American
aborigines, and send home the 3, 900
missionaries of the cross who are toll
ing in foreign lands, toiling for Christ's
sake, toiling themselves into the grave.
Tell these 8, 900 men of God that they
are of no use. Send home the medical
missionaries who are dOctoring the
bodies as we'll as the souls of the dying
nations. Go home, London Missionary
society," Go home, American board of |
foreign missionsl Go home, We Mora
vians, and relihquish back into darkness
and squalor and death the nations
whom ye have begun to lift.
Oh, my friends, there has never been
such nefarious plot on earth as that
which infdelity and atheism have plan
ned. We were shocked a few years ago |
because of the attempt to blow up the |
parliament houses in London, but if in
Al al, 4
tempt they will dynamite world Let |
them have their full way, and this
world will be habitation of three
rooms-a habitation with just three
rooms; the one a madhouse another
lazaretto, the other a pandemonium.
These inidel bands of music have only |
just begun their Concert-yea, they
have only been stringing their instru-
ments. I today put before you their
whole programme from beginning unto
close. In the theater the tragedy comes
first and the farce afterward, but in
this infidel drama of death the farce
comes first and the tragedy afterward.
And in the former, atheists and infidels
laugh and mock, but in the latter God
himself will laugh and mock He says
SO. ST will laugh at their calamity and
mock when their fear cometh."
From such chasm of Individual ma
tional, worldwide ruin, stand back.
Oh, young men, stand back from that
chasml You see the practical drift CT
my sermon. I want you to know where
that road leads. Stand back from that
chasm of ruin. The time is going to
come (you and may not live to see it,
but it will come, just as certainly as
there is a God, it will Gomez when the
infdels and the atheists who openly
and out and out and aboveboard preach
