The Worth Of The Voice

How wonderful is the human voicei
1t is indeed the organ of the soull
The intellect of man sits enthroned
yisibly upon his forehead and in his
eye. and the heart of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet of
old in the still, small voice. and In
the voice from the burning brush. The
soul OF man is audible, not visible. A
sound alone betrays the flowing of the
eternal fountain, invisible to man.

A Pastors Testimony.

Sometimes ministers ask me why it
Il that they cannot get results in their
Christian Endeavor societies, and
wonder how they would take 1t If /
tried honestly to analyze the situation
for them, for when all is said and
done the important factor is the minis
ter himself.
realize full well that the young
people are not always what they
ought to be. If they were there would
be NO use for the ministers. When
hear Of the failure of society I ask,
How much sympathy, how much
time. how much thought, did the pas
tor give to itT It Is not strange when
societies fail that are neglected. The
church would fail under similar cir
cumstances.
! believe that any minister who Is
prepared to put thought and time and
energy into his Christian Endeavor
society will make a success Of It. If
he cannot succeed with his young peo-
pie 1t is doubtful If he can succeed
with the church that he serves.
The simple secret is this: Sow sym
pathy and love for the young people
and you will harvest crop Of good.
Listen to the testimony of a man
that has done this. Rev. VIII f.
Shaw, pastor of the Sheffield Avenue
Church Of Christ, Chicago, writes of
his Endeavorers as follows:
Christian Endeavor has furnished
my soul winner class, my mission
study class, my flower distributors,
my choir and funeral singers, my Sun
day evening workers and audiences,
my Bible study and teachers training
class. my temperance agitators and
supporters, my assistant correspond
ems, canvassers and advertisers, my
'1rst organized Sunday school class,
my library keepers and book gather
srs. my most regular attendants In
every church service, my sympathizers
In almost every advanced movement
In the church work In every passionate
iof my tife."
There is no magic IN this. The pas
tOrs Of today will find that the boys
and girls respond in Christian En-
0eavor work where they feel a warm
interest On his part and a Willingness
To serve and help them. Christian En-

Prayer Meeting Topic For the Wssk
Beginning Jan. Q, 1911.
Tcpic.-Blessed-to bless.-Gen. Xii. l, .;
n. evil. Is IAN evanselistic meeting.)
Edited by Rev. sh-,rssn H. Doyle. D. D.
When God called Abraham to leave
his own country in Or Of the Chaldees
and 60 to land to which he would
show him He made this promise to
Abraham: II will make Of thee great
nation, and will bless thee and make
thy name great, and thou shalt be q
blessing. In thee all families
Of the earth shall be blessed" Abra-
ham was not to be blessed simply for
his own sake, but that through him
others might also receive blessings.
He was blessed-to bless.
In the One Hundred and Seventh
Psalm the writer says In the second
and third verses, Let the redeemed Of
the Lord say so, whom He hath re-
deemed from the enemy and hath
gathered them out Of the lands-from
the east and from the west, from the
north and from the south" All the
redeemed were to tell others OF their
redemption, with the purpose. Of
course, Of leading them to redemption
(redeemed-to redeem).
II we are the recipients Of Gods
blessing we should be a blessing to
others. If we have been redeemed we
should redeem others by Gods grace
and power.
/. Blessed-to bless. This was one
great purpose of God in blessing Abra-
ham-namely, that he might bless 9th
ers. The same Is true Of the blessing
Of God today. No blessing is bestow-
ed upon us in a selfish or personal
manner. 1t Is to be passed on to 9th
era. II God has blessed US with
wealth It Is not to be misery boarded,
but used for Him In such a way as to
prove q blessing to others If blessed
with opportunities In life we should
try to so use them as to be Of assist
ance to others. If we have been given
superior talents, use them also to the
blessing Of others. Above all things.
II blessed with spiritual gifts Of I'M
usual quantity or quality find some
way by which you may impart them
to the less fortunately situated. Why
God selects certain ones for special
blessings we do not know, but one
thing we do know, and that Is that
whosoever thus receives IL intended to
be a channel for imparting blessings to
others.
2. Redeemed-to redeem. LET the
redeemed Of the Lord say So" Redemp-
ton In the sense of the souls saliva
tion by the death of Christ can only be
Of the Lord. There is no human re-
demption or eternal salvation. 1t is all
divine. And in gratitude to God for
our redemption we should tell 1t to
others: we should ''say So" 1--WE been
redeemed" should be the song Of ev-
cry heart and the testimony Of every
tongue. We are saved to serve in the
vineyard Of the Lord, and If we are
not by testimony or by Christian liv-
ing leading some to Christ we may well
take time to examine ourselves and
zee II we are redeemed and saved.
The first thought of most people who
have found Christ is to lead some one
else to Him. Andrew found Him and
went to his brother Peter and
brought him to Jesus" Are we fol-
lowing such an example?
