SAYS CHURCH IS
LOSING GROUND
Enemy Has Taken Many Forts of
Israel, the Rev. MOffat
Declares.

"A Gracious Offer Refused was the
subject of a. sermon by the Rev. t.
Arid Meffat, in the First Congrega-
tional lube Memorial Church. last
night. He took for his text: III. Kings
xviii, 20. Sc. Give pledges to my lord,
the king of Assyria, and | will deliver
thee w thousand horses, If thou be
able to set riders upon them. But
the people held their peace and an
swered him not a word; for the kings
commandment was, saying, answer
him not"
Turning aside from the immediate
reference of. the text, Mr.. Moffat used
it, by accommodation, as illustrating
the present relations of the church and
the world. He said:
Israel seemed to be In rather sorry
plight, Assyria in her growing power
was inclined to be sympathetic
though in rather a patronizing sort of
a way. Israel declined Assyria's good
offices. as being i'll advised. The divine
word had prohibited the use of the
horse SO common among the heather
nations round about.
THE church finds herself In
thing like the same predicament today.
Her poorly equipped conditions pro-
woke the pity of the world. Shrewd
advice md well-meant propositions are
addressed to us. We are blamed that
we refuse them. But we know the
divine command.
"Assyria came with the credentials
of subtle argument and genuine sue
cess. All that stood between Israel and
acceptance was the kings word. 1t
will be well If the church today dares
to be as stanch as Israel was. Folly
be 1t. stubbornness II you will, but
obedience is the most excellent virtue
in the Christian order.
at is a cry that will not down. that
the church is losing ground. The in
situations of worldliness are much more
prosperous thar those of religion. Many
of the forts of Israel have been taken
by the enemy. What is to be done?
Mr.. Worldly Wisenan advizes with
much suavlty and force the church is
too narrow and slow. She wants some
Co They hint that we cannot fairly
meet our enemy, as they are mounted
OF the most approved n up-to-date
methods. The suggestion of the willy
adviser is that we avail ourselves of
the fleet steeds of the popular move
ments and so on the horseback of a
more modern order we shall win place

DR.. CHAPMAN SPEAKS
ON PSYCHOLOGICAL END"
Says Man Was Designed to Be
Lord Of World.

The Rev. DR.. w. Y. Chapman, of the
Roseville NJ. L. Church, spoke last
night on 1.-The Theological End He
said in part:
1.-THE essential teaching of the Bible
is not changed, whether you believe
that the world was developed to its
present state through a long series OF
ages, or cling to the old idea that l.
was created in six times twenty-four
hours. In either case the important
fact, dlscredited by no one, and abunl
dainty taught in the Bible and illusl
trated in history, is that the earth wa
made for man and man was designs
to be its lord. The earliest and latet
words of Revelation agree in this s'"-
ment, and the unfolding of the hi
toric centuries proves it. Even he
greedy propensities Of men to grab dd
hold as much of 1t as they can j a
kind of proof of 1t.
1.-The conquest of the earth, espeal-
ly within the last century, competing
her to disgorge the wealth store in
her bowels, not only c~ertifies to rms
lordship, but makes it easy to baeve
that these stores were placed thei for
mans subsequent use. And 1t ma not
he obvious, but 1t is Bible trut and
credible to the man who will hink
upon 1t, that the final purpose the
earth's creation is in the interts of
the sons of God"

WOOOMEN ATTEND
GOSPEL SERVICES
Newark'Camps Well Represented
at Initial Meet in Mill
tary Park.

Newark camps of the Modern Wood
men of America were well represented
at the open-air gospel services held by
the Epworth League of Central Meth
odist Episcopal Church in Military
Park yesterday afternoon. A uni
formed company of the Woodmen faced
the band stand. After a sacred con-
cert by the Epworth League orchestra
the audience sang.
The Rev. DIR. William H. Morgan,
pastor of Central Church, sang as a
solo the hymn, Just as / AM" and
Mary Vaughn, 6 year old, sang
"Whiter Than Snow" She stood on a
chair so the people could see her. Mr..
Morgan assisted her in the chorus. The
Rev. Robert Scott Inglis, pastor of the
Third Presbyterian Church. read a pas
sage from the gospel of Matthew.
DIR. Morgan then spoke on "Christian-
ity and Brotherhood" He said that
when Horace Greeley was dying he said
fame and popularity were soon forgot
ten by the world, riches took wings,
but a good character lived long after
death. The characters of men are de-
veloped in brotherhoods by working to
help the unfortunate, the sick n the
fatherless. This work made men bet
ter.
DIR. Morgan told of a sickly New
York b~ootblack who was about to shine
up the shoes of a reporter, but a burly
boy came up and said he would do it
The reporter asked him why, and he
said Jimmy had just come out of the
hospital, and the boys made 1t up tc
do his work for him until he got strong
The reporter handed 25 cents to the
big boy, and told him to give Jimmy
10 cents and keep Is cents for himself
But the big boy gave all the money to
Jimmy.
.'That was religion" said DR.. Nor
gan.
In closing DR.. Morgan said he would
like to see every father, husband and
son a member of some beneficial order,
so that when death came there would
be something left to keep the mother,
wife or sister from want. He said the
Woodmen and other beneficial organf-
cations help to make the world sweeter
and better.
The Rev. DR.. Inglis gave the benedic-
ton.
