When preachers of the gospel
learn to respect their memDer RS
and the audience enough to cease
~ take up more than half of their
time at vilifying. vituperating
using slang in their pulpit, Their
may we hope to see the church
and its work progress. But one
OF the truest signs of weakness
and cheapness in the pulpit Is to
find a man making personal at
tacks on somebody or some cause
out OF personal revenge, especi
ally when such a preacher knows
there is no way for the attacked
To defend himself. What the
world and the church wants and
needs today is a pure and IN
adulterated gospel on the lives
and conditions Of the people. The
people want to be told how to aid
eaa b other in racial uplift. They
need TO be told how TO live in
peace and harmony with each
other. 1t doesn't belong to
christian gentlemen to preach
dicord, division and antagonism
That kind of tommy rot' be
longs to bar barism or that age
when might made right.
The McDowell times. [volume] (Keystone, W. Va.) 1904-1941, 1915-07-23

What you have to do. do il
right and as good as can be done
When you know you are right
