which CHURCH SHALL
| JO|N" ANSWERED BY
DR. GRAFTON S. BROOKS
first CH HSTIAN CHURCH

Which church shal | join" was
the question answered by Dr. Crayton
s. Broo,:s. pastor OF First Christian
church a. the morning services sun
day
The speaker discussed the church
which has good people in it, the one
with educated members, the one with
an educated ministry and declared they
are all pretty much alike in these
respects.
He discussed fathers church, moth
ers church. wife's church, the church
with the orator in the pulpit, the
church of the poor. the society church
the church of beautiful architecture
the church with the largest organ and
greatest choir and various other
types. He concluded that the church
is divine institution with divine
founder He found complete de-
scription of the church in the New
Testament, its birth, growth and de-
velopment under inspired guidance.
In the sermon last night the evan
gelist described the motives that US
ually are considered in choosing
church He mentioned the man who
Joined q church simply because his
fathers were born in it, the man who
joined his wife's church the man who
selects his church for business rea-
sons, political advantages, social pres
tige. He scorned the doctor who would
unite with a certain church to secure
patients or a lawyer to obtain clients.
The arguments OF convenient location
fine architecture, eloquent pastor, fine
music, etc, all received the pastor 5
. attention. He said that these consider
ations might be worth while if the
church was a worldly institution, But
it is not 1t is divine
Moreover, the question, Which
Church Shall ! Join" was not raised
in New Testament days for the simple
reason that there was but one church
Of the Lord Jesus Christ in those
days. There ought to be only one
now.
He said the New Testament con,
tains a complete description Of the d.
wing church, its history in prepara
tion, birth, name, laws, ordinances
officers, doctrine and fruits.
He advised his hearers TO study tn,
New Testament church Then with ;
mental picture of this divine mode
in mind go forth to find It's duplcat,
or replica in this world He frankly
admitted that he did not believe IL
exact replica can yet be found. Wha
then? Find the church that is mos
nearly like the Bible model, join it
go to work for God. DO all YOU cal
TO make It more ike the apostoli
church. If you even find one NOR
like Christ's church than that one yol
have joined, quit it and unite with tn
other as quickly and readily as yoI
would turn your coat IL you by SOM

but what we might have known, tha
We had chance to know.
He closed by exhorting his hearer
