storm, but to equip us to deliver the
goods.
Yesterday many good people
thought of the church as an institution
to give comfort to the dying and pre-
pare the souls of those who ask forgive
ness for the Day of Judgment and the
unknown life beyond. Today we are
beginning to realize it's greater mission.
For individual sin it still offers the one
and only remedy, but if it is to be a
power in the world that is, it must apply
the principles of Jesus to heal not only
the individual but the social life.
The American Church has hereto
fore had remedy for drunkenness, but
only this year has it abolished the
organized liquor traffic Heretofore it
has offered to each seeker an adequate
remedy for wilfull idleness, but it did
not attempt to solve the Unemployment
problem. 1t has held out remedy for
personal greed, but it often seemed in
different to those social abuses which
led to extremes of wealth and poverty.
1t has taught kindness to servants, but
it has rot thrown itself in any organized
way into the modern workingman's
struggle for a living wage. 1t has
, theoretically taught the universal
Fatherhood of God, but not until the
present time did it enlist body and soul
in war for world democracy.
Bold Labor Program Adopted.
Six years ago the Methedist Epis-
copal Church OF America adopted a
definite labor program. 1t boldly as
serted the right of the workers to en-
ployment, and their right not only to
living wage, but to the highest wage
that industry can afford to pay. 1t
sympathized with the aims and aspira-
tons of the modern labor union, but it
went further in its labor program than
the unions could go. 1t demanded US
tice and something more. 1t demanded
that the problems of employer and en-
ployed be worked cut under the in
spiration of Christian fellowship, and
that industry be organized, not to sat
isfy the individual thirst for wealth, but
to extend to every one the highest OPP
poFtunity for joyful service.
1.-THE Methodist Episcopal Church,
he said, lis the only church which now
has missions in every country on earth.
We are not afraid of any situation we
can possibly find in any foreign field
Our missionary society is not afraid of
wars, famine or plague. We are not
afraid of hostility or repression. The
only thing we have to fear-the only
thing that can now stand in the way of
a completely successful campaign-is
Indifference on the part CT Ike church

home 'front.' Exactly the same situa-
ton exists with US. The world may be
hxought to Christ in our time, genuine
world democracy and human brother
hood may be achieved, and the era of
war and industrial strife give place to
permanent peace and good will, if the
churches of America consecrate them
selves to this achievement"
World Needs Surveyed.
The first main Elective of the cen
tenary drive is to equip every Methodist
mission, at home and abroad, for 100
per cent efficiency. Forty million
dollars has been appropriated for each
branch of the work, and the exhaustive
survey tells in detail just where and
how the money is to be spent
The Christian religion is the only
religion which answers the need of the
day. 1t is peculiarly the religion of
the present, for it is the religion of
dynamic democracy. 1t is the only re-
hgion which can satisfy in thes. days of
social unheaval. Jesus spoke to the
common people and the common people
heard Him gladly. He was bitter in
His denunciation of caste and privilege.
He proclaimed : world for those who
serve their fellow men, but world to
be gained through the application of
love and fellowship instead o. through
violence and hatred,
Poor suffering India needs such a
religion. Her hundreds of millions are
the despair of democracy today simply
because her religion is caste religion.
Ghristianize India and we will daznoc
ratize India. | realize that the very
suggestion will shock and scare many
serritors of special privilege, but there
can be no compromise on this funda-
mental Christian doctrine. Either we
are for Christ or against Him. Either
we are for democracy or against it. A
Christian world will be a democratic
world; but only through Christianity
will democracy be made safe
Big Prayer Drive Planned.
To start the drive the Methodists
have organized q Fellowship of Inter
cession TO release the PRAYER power of
the church, Tens of thousands have
enrolled in this fellowship, each pledged
to devote certain period each day to
prayer.
Next, there is Stewardship drive"
One million American Methodists are
wanted to join in this. For FIVE years
they will contribute one-tenth of their
income to this Christian work.
Enlistment for life service" is an
other feature of this program. The
drive will call for new army of mis-
sionary workers, and it is intended that
this army shall be completely trained
and utterly devoted to the cause.
Soon there is to be a nationwide
financial campaign to obtain pledges
for tie necessary $12o, 100000. For

are being trained, not under the hit-or-
miss volunteer system, but according to
the principles of selective service. The
Methodist section alone, including the
Southern branch, will be financed with
$12O,ooO,O0O.
Layman Suggests Idea.
The movement in its inception was
not ecclesiastical. 1t was democratic.
DIR. S. Earl Taylor is Methodist lay
man. That name won't be repeated
often if DIR. Taylor can help it. He is
not a self-advertiser. Personal honors
do not interest him, any more than have
the urgent appeals from several COM
mereial institutions to leave his mission
airy work and devote his talents, at
many times his present income, to their
business interests. Actual achievement
in the service of his Master is his one
measure of success. His official position
is executive secretary of the Joint Cen
tenary Committee.
Although a graduate of q divinity
school, he refused ordination. He
wanted to become lay missionary, but
because of illness in his family, he could
not go abroad.
81 have always believed in missions"
he has said. Il have always believed in
the great mission of the Christian
Church. That mission is to bring the
whole world to a knowledge of Jesus,
and if that mission were too great for
the church to perform, the Master
would never have intrusted the Church
with it's performance.
SO far, the church has not carried
out its mission. But today we have
more reason than ever to have faith in
the church. The church is awakening.
1t takes no prophet to see that. 1t is
beginning to realize its mission, and
millions right here in America are now
consecrating themselves not merely to
lead better life according to the old
and inadequate Interpretation of con-
secration but to give to the cause of
world redemption and world democracy
their full share of organized service.
Same Old Gospel Preached.
I'VE are not preaching a new gospel.
We are offering o amendments to the
teachings of Christ. His plan of saliva
ton was complete. The difference be-
tween the awakening church of today
and the eminently respectable and emil
nently futile church of the past 10 in our
fuller realization of the meaning of our
Masters message.
Yesterday, it was customary to think
of the church as harbar of refuge. 1t
is harbor; but harbor has vastly
greater uses than to furnish refuge
from the storm. 1t is a port of EN-
barkation in the Masters service. It is
a place to take on food and fuel and to
get our engines overhauled. Its main
object is not to shelter US from the

Only world converted to the prac-
teal application of Christianity can be
considered world safe for democracy
this is the big idea back of this great
world movement originated and further
ed by the Methodist Episcopal Church
and the Methodist Episcopal Church
South. DR.. S. Earl Taylor, originator
and present leader-a layman, by the
way-of the movement, has explained it
all this way;
The world cannot be reconstructed
by a formula. No mere agreement
among diplomats can heal the wounds
however perfect in its phrasing, and no
mere economic revolution, however
sweeping in its scope, can bring about
the universal reign of peace and good
will among men. Such a peace is the
fundamental aspiration of every human
heart, but it cannot be realized through
force, it cannot be realized through gov
eminent and it cannot be realized
through law alone. World democracy
can and will be realized only through
applied Christianity and nothing but
faithlessness on the part of the Chris
tian church need delay its realization
now.
More Than Religious Movement.
Christianize a nation and you
democratize it; it is this belief that is
stimulating this great worldwide move
mcnt, Christian movement, a church
movement, a strictly religious move
ment; but one which will soon compel
the world to attach new meanings to the
words church and religion" and
christianity This new movement
has something of the spirit of the old
American revival and something of
the fervor of the ancient crusades.
The movement took its name from
the centenary of the founding of the
Methodist Missionary society. 1t has
been endorsed by every interdenonina-
tional conference which has had it
under consideration.
A complete survey of every field has
been made by the Methodists and the
campaign is to be Swaged with almost
military strategy. The main detectives

SO heartily that they are willing to give
their tithes to extend these blessings to

Emphasis Placed on Service.
The MethodistA have not forsaken
their Methodist creed. In this move
ment there is no attempt to slight the
fundamental doctrine of the Atonement
nor that of justification by faith. But
undue emphasis will not be placed upon
doctrine. The emphasis will rather he
upon Christian service and upon re-
ligion of the heart. 1t should be ex-
planned that there is no competition to-
day in foreign missionary work, Where
one denomination is adequately cover
ing the field, the field is left to that de-
nomination, and all the other churches
recognize it's institutions as the expires
sion of Christianity.
The old system of church extension
in the rural communities will large
~ be abandoned. Instead of build
ing little meeting houses, to be
opened once week when weather per-
mits and $3Oo year pastor can be
supplied, an effort will be made to build
large Institutional churches in the
charge of competent and well salaried
executives, not merely as places In
which to sing hymns and pray, but ss .

service. These churches will be open
continuously; will contain libraries and

This year," DR.. Taylor remarked,
the churches of America abolished the
saloon. We are iubilant oves the vic
tory; but if we do not do something
more than jubilate. our rictery will be a
hollow one. This vietary has brought
US face to face with new responsibilities
and the churches of America must not
be slackers. We must fill the place of
