over which the holy ghost hath made
you Overseers. to feed the church Of
God, which he hath purchased with
His own blood
TN all our preaching let US see TO it
brethren, that we put the emphasis
a upon the inward-the spiritual
rather than upon the outward or tenn
pOraI features OF our church life and
work To Christ as the only savior Of
men. to a good life, as eXempl1led IN
His own career, and made the condition
and test Of discipleship, to these do I
desire To give all the emphasis within
my power TO bestOw.
Deeds Are Necessary.
Having said this let me further state,
that while our Lord, from beginning
to end, stressed good life as over
against a formal sham pretence, and
while it would be difficult TO point
to a single rite or ceremony which He
regarded as necessary 10 salvation, still
for all who would be His disciples. He
made II perfectly clear that the confess
sion OF His name should follow upon
faith in His person.
Such a thing as a secret disciple. one
unwilling TO declare his allegiance,
was to Christ out OF the question.
ITO believe in ones heart and to con-
fess with the mOuth"-before men
were the essential things and upon this
foundation Christ established His
church. 1t is the church. in this sense,
which claims the attention and ale
glance of all men I wish then. in the
remaining time before us, TO present 10
you the claims of the church
Faith. Not Form.
The text present sa strong claim OF
the church upon US In fact there are
many passages in scripture which inGi-
cate the supreme Importance and value
Of the church. But let US understand
first OF all that the Bible always speaks
Of. the inward as important above the
outward form The kingdom is within
YOU Christ said He emphasized the
power Of gOdliness as far more import
ant than the mere form Of goodness
He denounced lip service and pharisai-
cal professions in most bitter terms and
exalted, without rite OF baptism or any
ecclesiastical ceremony at least one

of paradise

I accept His word as their law. He gave
! TO the church two rites, which were 10
: be observed and which would bind His
I followers into solemn compact. This,
| in short was the church which Christ
instituted and which lays claims upon
al men who trust his mission and look
for good and blessing in Him.
Obedience Is necessary.
But I would present the claims Of the
church in another light There is
nothing so characteristic OF the Chris
tlan life as obedience First Of all. OF
course, there must be real love and
loyalty. It was this that the risen
Lord insisted upon Lowest thou Me-
He said, and came over IL again and

it Is a sad kind OF faith he has in
Christ It is as If one should say, 7

Of the church.
Church Interest Mutual
Then. the church claims our love and
loyalty not only for the blessings it
