The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-12-06

I tory for nearly 1900 years. Many va lrleties Of religious opinion have come ana l gone; many forms of ecclesiastical gov | ernment have grown up among Chris
 tians, but personal love for the personal Christ has been the essential and un- changing characteristic of all who have borne unchallenged the name of Chris tian.
 Nothing else so differentiates man l from the lower creatures as his power
 to conceive strong, noble and everlasting affections. His physical prowess and
 intellectual achievements are all over- topped by his enobling affections ana the God-like royalties which are inspired
 and sustained through his affections. In l this realm man really has achieved eternity. Long after his beloved friend and comrade has gone to the discovered country he still holds him in his heart | as my friends that lives in God Jesus Christ did not think it outside of His mission to feed the hungry multi tudes with loaves and fishes; but He de- clared that man shall not live by bread alone. More than any teacher before Him I or after Him, He exhorted men to use l their intellectual powers to solve the problems of life. 'Ye shall know the truth. and the truth shall make you free.' But on the cornerstone of our greatest intel- 1 lectual monuments we may fittingly in- scribe the words: Whether there pe
 knowledge it shall pass away But on ] the palace of our affections we may write with humility and yet with boldness. Love lasts on and on.
 While all men are endowed with the

powers of transcending affections. too few of us ever discover and realize on this part of our personal capital. Like Hamlet. we turn from one thing to an- other. longing for something or someone who will challenge our dormant energies of mind and heart, furnishing us with that inspiration which shall awaken and stir to action the best there is in us. For awhile the maxims of Pollonius en- gage our attention, but soon we weary with the counsels of wisdom Merely abstract ideas can never release the pent- up energies of a human soul
 "The religion of routine and rule is inevitably disappointing and monotonous; but the religion that is personal reaction to the personal Christ Is always comfort ing, always interesting and frequently thrilling with the noblest enthusiasm. To follow of the Son of God in His moral and spiritual conquest of the human race is to move in a region where the soul of man feasts on those spiritual luxurfes that make up the daily food of the chil- dren of God"
