DRAWING A CROWD.
Not the Same Thing as Building UP a
Church--Dr. Stewart

1 With very many attractions inviting
| the people to different places, there was
good audience last evening at the He'd.
ding church. Hartley Stewart. the So
| lost, sang two selections much appre-
ciated by the people and loyal members
OF the choir did faithful service. A num-
Der OF ministers were present, including
Rev William Shaw and Rev. Mr.. Bene'
diet from Montpelier.
DR.. Stewart gave a splendid interpre-
taton of the feeding of the multitude
by Christ. The speaker said that Christ
did not plan his program, but took adj
vantage of every opportunity. 1t is not
always the well-planned utterance that
counts most, but the skilful way we use
opportunities. The disciples helped to
bring the multitude to Christ and it is
a poor church that cannot help the
preacher to draw a crowd.
But it is one thing to draw a crowd
and it is another thing to build up a
church. Many men have been able to
draw crowd, but failed to build up a
church. Better than some of the modern
devices often used is the plan of agita-
tion by which people are brought to-
gether. just as when the political cam
paign is on, constant agitation by young
and old excites the interest of the peo-
pie. so it should be relative to the real
work of Jesus Christ. The disciples un-
doubtedly talked much about Jesus
because they loved Him, and people
people were led to believe in these peo-
Pie because they appeared sincere. Peo-
pie know whether we are sincere or not;
whether the note is like the tinkling Gym
bal or if it has the true ring in it.
DIR. Stewart said: There is nothing Of
fcnsive in the religion that Christ stands
for II is not the religion, hut often
the manner in which it is presented. If,
said the speaker. those before him in
the audience would but present Christ
in the right manner, the whole city
might be moved.
There were those in the incident con-
nected with this story of Christ who
would send the multitude away. That. |
said DR.. Stewart, has been the trouble |
TOO many times. The multitude has |
been sent away and the wonder is that |
people have continued to come to the |
,burch, when so often they get so little. |
Too often with the average person
here is no responsibility for the person
II thing out of sight We cease to have
i care when the pressure of the hour is
'ver. People do not take us seriously
because we simply appear to be serious
ourselves at certain times.
The great lesson is that as preachers
md Christian workers we always stand
n the face of hungry multitude IL
nay not seem so, but 50 it is, for what
; of just a worldly nature does not
eally satisfy and the real soul hunger
an never be met until people awake to
be more important things that belong
o God. We should not lose confidence
