The Way Back.
All that Malachi said was addressed
to nation that had wandered from
its plain duty to Jehovah. From the
days of your fathers you have turned
aside from mine ordinances, and have
not kept them" Even a people, as
well as an individual, may offend God.
The practical question-vital to every
one, at one time or another-at once
arises What about the nation or man
that has gone astray2 Is there a way
back to safety and happiness for him
The answer is clear cut and unmistak-
able. and fraught with Wondrous teach
ings concerning the long suffering faith
erhOod OF God. Return unto me, and
I viii return unto you, saith Jehovah Of
hosts Gods part Is sure; there is a
light in the window of the Fathers
house for every prodigal. Only mans
unwiilingness or perversity bars the
door to heaven.
These old Hebrews had failed to
make the offerings to the temple which
the law required. And this was but a
symbol of their spiritual attitude to-
ward the Lord of the temple. They

him his due. And life that fails to
receive a blessing has first failed to be
fair with the Lord. Mans withholding
always precedes Gods. It is the
omitted duty that chokes the channels
of divine favor.
So. in a familiar passage. Malachi
cries out, Bring We the whole 1.-THE
into the storehouse, and prove me now
herewith, saith Jehovah of hosts, if I
will not open the windows of heaven,
and ant a hfPSGingr that there
shall not be room enough to receive 1t.
On Good Terms With Highest Powers.
That is a way a revival comes. Be
just with Jehovah and He will be gen
erOus with you. A true, clean church
never lacks for a revival. The most
serious fact, from the Christian stand
point about the recent financial and
political scandals that have shocked
the world is that so many of the men
concerned are active members of the
church. These leaders of religious
work for years abetted, profited, or at
least winked at practices both Illegal
and immoral, How could any church
so encountered expect a blessing from
on high? Before some congregations
can expect to get in many new mem
bers they must get rid Of certain of the
old. The failure of the church to dis
cipline offending members may &C
count for the way the world is disci-
plining the church,
The prophet is explicit. When Gods
people return to Him, and acknowledge
His sovereignty by their lives and gifts,
as we'll as by their lips. he will do bet
ter for them than they can dream or
desire. Prosperity. he says waits on
/ righteousness. Happy is the nation
whose God is jehovah" The Lord
yearns for the welfare of His own. He
always does the best by them that they
will let Him do. And if He must sit as
a rehner. it is only that they may be
made pure. All the bitter breaking
UP of the old order is but that the
highway Of the Messiah may be pre-
pared.

! many clergymen have declared to be
the most important event in the re-
ltgious world since the Reformation. 1t
was called the Inter-Church Confer
tons were officially represented.
throughout the weeks sessions the
very foremost men in American Chris
tan work discussed the subject of a
United Church. They all were loyal
to their own denominations, with a
sane and sagacious recognition of pres
ent conditions; but with a. unanimity
that vas little less than sublime. they
eagerly coveted union for service of
all churches. Not a man of the scores
upon, the platform put his own church
above other churches, or above Christ's
church. The practical outcome of the
meetings was the organization of per-
manent federation, in which all the
evangelical Protestant churches of
America viii unite for the promotion of
morality, good works and pure religion.
This means that a. new force has en-
tered the life OF America. It foretells
day not far distant when the Chris
tan forces Of the land viii be able to
speak as one upon every vital issue;
and when the propagation of the gos-
pei will be the first and main business
OF organized, single-eyed Christendom.
Every denomination accents some
one big word in the vocabulary of re-
ligion.
This big world holds many kinds of
people Each denomination has suited
the special tastes of some of these.
Pending the desirable day when the
Masters prayer that they all may be
ones is fulfilled, we may recognize the
diversity of appeal that Christianity
makes through the varieties of forms
and methods in the diversified branches
OF the church universal.
While rivalry and competition are
utterly out OF place between Christian
churches, yet there is such a thing as
provoking one another to love and good
works. The zeal of the Methodists has
been a spur to the Presbyterians, while
the dignity and intellectually of the
latter have had a wholesome effect upon
the former; and both have been helped
by the spirit of independence in the
Congregational and Baptist churches.
All have been constrained to greater
reverence and Journalism by the Pro-
testant Episcopal church and, on the
other hand, the simple Quaker teach
ing of the inner light and of the relig-
ion that needs no forms, but is of the
spirit, have leavened all other Christian
bodies. When the day of denomina-
tiOnalism has passed altogether, the
one united church will be so inclusive
and tolerant and so many sided that
it will preserve all the valuable varie-
ties Of the many churches, that the
needs Of every mans spirit may be
met

GREAT SOULS.
A great soul is known by its enlarged
sympathies. True elevation of mind does
not take a being out of the circle Of those
less gifted. but binds him faster to them

Charity means to give not merely a.

Charity. means to give not merely a, lib

MODERN IDEA OF GOD.
The old stern notions of God are gone
even from our Calyinistic churches. Our
own Presbyterian church has lately been
forced by the times to put love into the
Westminster confession, from which it
had foE centuries been absent. Men can
never turn away from a God whom they
call love, and with such sentiments
abroad the church has ten times the op-
portunity to win them that it had back
in the days when the wrath OF God was
mems chief thought Of the Deity.-Rev.
John Balloon Shaw, Presbyterian, Chi

person who practices it for the sake of

FAITH IN THE HUMAN HEART.

sure of the greatness of the blessings
that you may receive at Gods hands.

Essentially, the Christian demon

Essentially, the Christian denomina-
tons are one church. Despite their
diversity, they possess a substantial
unity. They manifest today, as prob~
ably never before since the apostolic
age, the spirit of the old saying, TN
essentials, unity; in non-essentials, lib
erty; in all things. charity The de-
nominationalism of this year of our
Lord 1905, is not a sectarian. narrow,
or bigoted thing; there is not one of
the divisions of Professionalism that
would not gladly efface itself, surren-
dering its name and organization, If
thereby the prosperity Of the Kingdom
of Heaven and the glory Of Jesus
Christ could be promoted.
There are many denominations, but
they ali together make one church.
For a soldier to love his regiment
more than the army or the flag or the
cause would be quite analogous to a
Christians loving his own denomina-
tons above the church Of which it is a
part.
