DR. R | DAVIDSON TALKS
To LARGE AUDIENCE ON
GODS INVESTMENTS
At MORNING SERVICE

DR.. X. l.. Davidson, pastor Of the
Broadway Baptist church, spoke Sun
day morning to large and apprecia-
tive audience on the subject, Gods
Investment" suggested by the parable
of the talents, Matt. 25:14-30. He said
in part:
Life is made up OF investments.
Boys and girls invest time and study
in books. Men invest in law, medicine.
banking, merchandise, farming with
the hope of receiving returns.
Gods Investments
God is an investor. He has invested
in the universe with all of its varied
resources. His greatest investment is
man. Human life in all of It's vari-
Gus phases suggests an unseen capi-
talist who has invested largely in us
and is expecting returns. BY kind OF
celestial bookkeeping, there is main
tanned a debit and credit account be-
tween US and this great capitalist. At
the beginning the account is all on
one side. Our very personality TO
Nh.NAi w Ni'AlE Nisf AAADoN N'AiNAshAS cGA -
was none Of our ordering. That we
should have begun lie on this earth
instead of on Mars or Jupiter or Ve-
nus: that We should have been born
in the nineteenth century instead OF
the ninth or the ninetieth: that we
should be Of n particular physical or
mental capacity. with gifts and pre-
dictions for law. medicine, teaching
or finance or farming Instead OF some
one OF q thousand other possibilities
are not of our choosing, but are the
orderings OF that unseen investor. For
some time after our arrival in shis
world we are recipients and absorbents
only. LIES boarded capital is at every
turn being lavshed upon US. The uni
verse flows in through myriad open
gateways OF the soul leaving deposits
OF all kinds from its infinite store
houses. God distributes his goods. not
arbitrarily, but according 10 our abil-
lty to .use. His gifts are bestowed up.
on us not for private enjoyment and
consumption, but "a stock in trade 10
be employed for his enrichment. The
right use Of these goods increases
them in our hands.
The Accounting and Rewards
THE capitalist with whom we have
10 deal, lavish though He be. Is no
aimless spendthrift. Like men. lie
expects returns from his investments
and insists upon getting them. The
servants whose balance sheet shows
n profit for the Master are most libcr-
ally rewarded. The servant whose bal.
ance shee. shows no credit for the
Master Is deprived OF his stewardship
and condemned TO sore punishment.
Every man should so use his time,
his opportunities. his money that ne
may BIZ assured OF receiving from the
Master In the day or final accounting
the commcndation. Well done, good
and faithful servant; thou hast been
faithful over few ,hlngs,'I viii make
thee rulcr over many things: cntcr
thou into the Joy Of thy Iord.'
