Christs Appeal 20 Men.
2 p. m.-Topic. Motive For the love
Of Christ constraineth us" Rev. F. F.
Hubbard. d. D.. presided. He said all
worthy motives are conjoined in the mis-
sionary motive but the two supreme mo-
tives are loyalty to Christ and love to ones
brethren
Robert f. Speer spoke on Christ's appeal
to men for the world. saying:
HE appeals TO His men for worldwide
vision. Lift up your eyes and look upon
the fields, the field is the world. His horizon
is the world: ours should be no narrower
than His II is for vision that shall
penetrate into real need OF the world, that
need is Christianity; other religions cannot
supply it. They were all here when He
came but Mohammedanism. He appeals
for sympathy and love. which includes all
the suffering children of our Father. The
appeal OF Christ is for action, the truth
is the sword of the spirit. let us use II
and subdue the world with the truth.
"He appeals for action under personal
leadership Of Himself. We are called to be
personal followers of a living Lord. 1t Is
our business to get a crown for Him. None
but Jesus deserves the crown Of the world,
and He shall have H. II we get the grasp
of His conquering hand we can do impossi-
BILE things
"He appeals for intense and earnest
service His appeal Is to men who Will
see His work through or die in trying to
see It through. whose meat and drink Is
to do the will OF God.
Christ is calling for sacrificial obedience,
this more than anything else. He demands
100 per cent Of our time, money and lives,
II He cannot be Lord OF all He has no
particular interest in being Lord at all
What answer will you make to Him as
He stands in our midst and asks, Why
call We me Master and Lord and do not
the things which l command your
Address of DIR. saiIer.
DR.. Bradt led in prayer.
T. II, p sailer. Phi. D., spoke on the
need Of systematic education:
There are four great obstacles to sys-
tematic study. First, postponement; sec
ond, 1t is apt to be desultory; third, results
are apt to be transitory on account of lack
of expression; fourth. want of enthusiasm
on account Of isolation-devise a regular
system and carry it out. We can do four
things: First, organize small classes for
training the leaders we need, furnish them
with helps; second, when they are trained
put them into harness to train others;
third, begin to have mission study in the
sabbath schools fourth, extend 1T into other
churches in your district. At p m. con-
