on the subject, 1.-THE Problem Of Prob
lems.' He said in part:
THE problem of the soul is the problem
of problems. The lame man Is still sitting
at the beautiful gate of modern civiliza-
ton and modern Christianity. The scien-
fist says to the lame man. You are
damned the rigidiy righteous man says to
him, You deserve what you have, you must
suffer- Miss Philanthropy comes along
and says to the lame man, i Will help you
i will give you a new crutch; the modern
moralist says 10 him, Your condition is
great pity, why do you not assert yourself
stand up: and he passes along; Peter says
to the lame man, OF silver and gold nave
none, but in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ stand up and walk And the lame
man is healed.
THE healing of the lame man is the one
unanswerable argument of Christianity.
Christianity promises to complete its work
and ii does it. That is the supreme claim
which has never been answered. The
healed man is always there and when all
other arguments are cast aside this one
great argument remains, unanswerable and
supreme.
This is the reason Christianity appeals
to the soul. This is why Christianity starts
with man. Science and other religions may
start with the environment but Christianity
begins with mans soul and works outward,
too, after it has started the reformation
from within. Man needs moral redemp-
ton from his moral infirmities. This is
what Christianity does.
The one patent fact is that all lives, how
ever strong they may be, sometimes need
the grace that is not human and the savior
that is not in ourselves. This 1t what true
ity does for those who are its true believ-

accepts the opportunity and calls upon its
believers and followers not alone to 'enun-
ciate' but to enact the divine working
principles amongst men,
Jesus was mighty in word and In deed

so are We in the world Doctrine IL TO is

and conceptions conduct. The question. as
Bishop Brooks 80 well said. now In: Can
the Christian religion meet all these prob
lems?' No man dares to say no. for the
Christian faith has never yet been tried.
One may safely say, however. that never
before has IL come nearly being tried
as In these days and In our own land. The
vexed and complex problems OF sociology
are not alone challenging Christian claims,
but are being met thereby as never in the
past. This is right. for the kingdom OF
heaven includes all human interests- II the
soul be Christian IL must affect the body,
and business and politics and all LIES rela-
tionships. A Christian soul calls for the
application OF divine principles to all
earth's problems. The gospel Of Jesus, the
gospel of the kingdom is this, that the prin-
ciples of Righteousness shall govern in all
relationships. AS Jesus declared this truth
His word was with power
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1903-10-05

that it was the embodiment of the very best
in the world, its duty being to bring people,
no matter what their nationality, color and
condition. into closer relationship with God
and to hold them there. This is the age,
he declared, toward which the prophets
looked.
Dr. Smith spoke the church's mission
TO the world, his thought being that in
time the church should conquer the world
and in the millennium God should be
known the world over and there should be
one hope. one religion and one church.
When there is a strong church abroad,
he said. then would there be a strong
church at home.
The Church and Evangelism" was the
phase of the subject which DR.. Villers dis
cussed. He said that the field of the church
is the world, which 1t is to bring together
into one world of reconciliation. The
church does not need more preachers, but
more people to talk the gospel.
Following the talks, Thou Shall Love the
Lord" was sung by the quartet.
