Preaching on the rules Of the church
recently. the pastor said. Il il as much
the duty Of the member Of the church
to be at service Sunday night and
Wednesday night as it is the pastor s;
that the devil was never happier than
when he could get some members Of
the church feeling unkind toward each
other or misunderstood each other;
that the devil was glad for any officer
in any society Of the church to resign,
it matters not what his reason for doing
it. The devil wants men to give up
work, and oftentimes he will tell a
fellow he is not appreciated and that
he ought to give up his office. The
reason that the church doesn't stand
for more is because its members are
so careless; that if the members trans
acted their secular business with the
some degree of care and interest that
they do the business Of the church,
the most Of them would be bankrupt in
II months time; that you can hardly
get the officials to give l hour per
month to the regular monthly meetings
when they will give 8 or 10 hours ev-
cry DAY to their secular business. -
