WHAT PASTORS SAID SUNDAY
PASTOR SAYS WE
OWE TWO DEBTS
Ono il 90 FcIlOwmen and the other TO
God. Declares Rev. =. y.
Grihiths.

Roy. s. A. GrifHths, pastor Of the
Presbyterian church at G~oodland,
Ind, held the pulpit of the Trinity
Presbyterian church sunday. when
Rev. John s. Burns. pastor of Trinity,
had charge OF the Presbyterian
church of Goodland. which he was
pastor of before coming 20 this city.
Our Debts was the subject of the
sermon delivered Sunday morning by
Rev. Griffith. in which he said there
are two kinds of debts that a citizen
owes TO his fellow men, TO himself
and 10 his God.
Receiving and wing are two es-
sentials tina are connected with every
debt" he said. Before owing a debt
the debtor must first have received
something. We owe God a great debt
for the physical. mental and moral
makeup tina He has endowed upon
us. Our greatest Irvine possibilities
are to obey the laws OF God that we
may become as good as God would
have us be.
I'VE are better TO ourselves al times
than we should be and not good
enough to our fellOwmen and God.
We should be constantly striving to
realize our ideas that We may be do
INK JuHLlCt " UuIStlNNSs MuANl III AuAA
is better for our fellowmen and God.
We should not only choose for our
selves that which is good, but that
which is the best. 1t is not right that
we are only good enough TO keep out
of Jail. but we must use the best there
is i'm the life for us. We owe to our
selves self respect.
ITO our fellow men we owe depen-
dence to one another. obedience TO
him and certain social obligations
and we are bound as citizens to our
country, to which we owe a great
debt Not only do we owe our country
a patriotic spirit as a soldier, but hon
esty as well in. other forms.
1--WE owe to God a complete sur
render of our lives. Christ discov-
cred US when we were deep in sin,
and rescued us making our lives pure
instead of impure. How are we hand
ling these debts to u fellOwmen, to
ourselves and to God? We should do
our best to pay all debts and although
we fail 70 pay them all II we do our
best we will be paid for It in heaven.

SINNER NOT0NLY
ONE TO SUFFER

of we live a righteous life some
one will be blessed by it. If we live
a wicked life some one VIII be cursed
by it. When we disobey God we suf-
fer, but worst of all, others must suf-
fer with u.s." said Rev. w. II. Fresh
ley. pastor of the First Evangelical
church Sunday evening in his sermon
on Jonah"
Jonah was a real man. He had a
real experience and in his experience
he found God to be real He learned
the important lesson that when God
tells a fellow TO do a thing the best
way out is to go and do 1t right away.
The story of Jonah is not a myth,
nor an %allegory, neither is it a para
BILE or fiction. It is a real historical
fact like the story of Moses. Abra-
ham or David. We read nat the Lord
had work for Jonah to do and he ran
away to avoid doing it. He suffered
for so doing. He found it no pleas
ant vacation to run away from the
work the Lord appointed him TO do.
The modern Jonah don't take a ship
as Jonah did and run away from the
service Of the Lord. but he takes his
automobile. an excursion train or
simply neglects to perform his task
Tor the Lord.
The point at issue is how did God
deal with the d~isobedienr servants of
His. The lesson we should learn is
that God will either have His Will
done in US and by us or else we shall
suffer the penalty Of our d~isobedience.
Jonah didn't want to go and preach
to the Ninevites so he sailed on a ship
and during the trip the ship nearly
was destroyed. The way Of disObe-
dience is always rough. God does not
always send a storm when we disObey
Him. for if he did this world would
be a stormy old world always.
1T is impossible to get away from
Gods pressure. we may muffe cOn
science. turn a deaf ear to Gods word.
but without doubt we must some day
reap what we sow.
I'VE also learn from Jonah that
our sin and disobedience involves 9TH
ers. Jonah was not the only one that
suffered because of the storm, but all
on board the ship suffered with him.
A ma may drink. but he is not the
one that suffers: it is his wife. chill
dren and mother"

Of the Vandalia railroad Sunday after

MEET TRIALS OF LIFE
SAYS H. B. H0STETTER

life brings to everyone many dis
agreeable things. We cannot escape
them. The question is how can we
meet them and master them and get
out of them the highest possible val
ue,' said Rev. II. B.. Hostetter, pastor
of the Westminster Presbyterian
church Sunday evening in his sermon
on the theme The Secret Of Deep,
Abiding Happiness"
THE sO-called adverse forces of the
world are here for a purpose and all
that befalls US is to be received as a
necessary part of our spiritual educa-
ton. If we misuse these forces and
live as if God were not; if we rebel
against the divine Will and rail inn
patiently against the dispensation Of
providence, we will miss the purpose
of God for us; We will become a source
of good TO none and will bring down
upon u own heads everlasting dis
aSter.
ION the other hand if we meet the
trials of life bravely and with faith
in God. ever looking to Him to direct
Il steps and determine all of life's is
sues, every event good or bad. will add
a graceful touch to the character we
are building and Will work in us an
exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
Not our circumstances but the use
we make Of them; not the place we
occupy but the way we conduct our
selves in that place. determines our
happiness, our success and our des-
TIMES.

TELLS WHY SIN
CAUSES REM0RSE
Rev. G. w. Allison Says 1t is
Because 1t is Committed
Against Personal God.

THE bitterness of remorse for sin
is caused 10y knowledge of the fact
that it was willingly committed
against a personal God whose chief
attribute is love. And So long as Cod
is Cod He Will reason with man
through his conscience. No man can
avoid reflection upon his own char
acter and his treatment of God" said
Rev. George William Allison, pastor
of Hope Presbyterian church, Sunday
morning in his ermOn on the subject
Gods Reasoning with Man
During his ermon he said that
whatever or whoever man may criti-
else he annot avoid self-criticism.
And Gods reasoning he said. is
this. trying to bring him to repentance
and forgiveness which cannot be Of
fered without repentance.
There is no. greater indictment of
senseless %unreason than the entire
prophecy of Isaiah, of which the first
chapter is a summary, and the 18th
verse the keynote. This reads, Come
now, let us bring u reasoning TO a
conclusion. saith the Lord; tho your
sins be- as scarlet, they shall be as
white as snow; tho they be red like
crimson. they shall be as wool
Gods instrument of reasoning
With man is His conscience. And
though man be stepped in stupidity
and sin worse than the OK or mule,
God Will not let him alone, but by
pangs Of conscience compels his at
tentiOn.
Yet we find today the peculiar
phenomena of men arguing against
God and opposing all efforts to redeem
their lives from sin. 1t is difficult to
understand this until we realize that
all arguments are really controlled by
desire. Almost invariably it is found
hat the man who argues against
Christianity does so in order to justify
his personal sin, though this motive
may not be confessed. Why men like
sin. and defend il rather than accept
salvation seems a mystery-when sin
is seen TO be a continual curse damn
ing their lives both in this world and
the world to come. No man can be
religious in this course. Religion de-
mands confession of sin, and a leav-
ing off of SHINING.
ANY psuedO-religiOn putting the
sOft-pedal upon repentance and con-
fessiOn will gain easily numerous ad-
herents." Ii is the belisf of the speak
er that so-caned Christian Science and
Russelism may not trutEfullr be
spoken of religions, for they 60 not
deal e~mphatically with the question
Of personal sin and repentance. And
to that extent these are not religions.
I'VE should see sin, too, as much
more than merely a violation of law
or breach of a commandment" con
tinued the pastor. 1T is a personal
insult to God. Are you conscious of
the wishes Inc watching of God in
your daily life2 1t was not a know
ledge of violation of law that con-
verted Saul of TarsHs TO Paul the
Apostle. but the living voice which
said. Saul, Saul, why p~ersecutest thou
me?'"
