DID. LII. D.
THE NON-CHURCH GOER
D. DILL. D.

Why do men neglect church at
tendance? II you mean all men do
not attend church you are in error.
1t is true that far too many stay
away from divine worship. The foI-
lowing reasons can be assigned why
certain classes neglect this important
duty:
FIRST: A scared Sabbath con-
science sends men to the golf links
on the Holy Sabbath.
SECOND: The gasoline mania
causes thousands to take the family
the dog. and the lunch basket into
the automobile early Sabbath morn
ing when they begin to break the
Ten Commandments. the speed
laws, the-rules of domestic tranquil
lity and Sabbath observance.
THIRD: Screenitis sends thous-
ands into the motion picture
houses, where they make a pagan
attack upon Gods Holy Day.
FOURTH: Laziness keeps thou
sands at home wrapped in the bed
clothes of Incidence and filth-too
indolent, sloven and filthy to dress
and attend divine worship.
FIFTH: False conception of wor-
ship, or because the sermon is poor,
or the minister worse than dead,
they drift into the habbit of neglect
ing church attendance.
SIXTH: A large number of those
who stay away do so because they
ere plain pagans; their education is
defective; their breeding is below
the standard They are just plain
, heather. No well-bred, well-train-
ed modern. up-tO-date, and other
wise normal man stays away from
church services. The bum, gambler.
fraud. embeZzler, outcast. loafer, and
the scum of the earth stay away from
church. Behold the crowd with
which the non-church eoer can be
cl3s sed
SEVENTH: There are thousands
OF business. professional. political,
and official men who neglect church
because they are conscious of The
TACT that they are grossly sinful
selfish. conceited, and derelict in the
performance of their duties. They
dread TO face the gospel mirror
~herein they can behold their own
faces over which is written guilt
They know that if they face the
gospel as expounded from Gods in
fallible Word they will have to sur
render their selfish, mean. conceited
business and professional attitude
toward the church and the gospel
The conceited professional man
tries TO build for himself a code and
self-righteous. and self-centered
contentment, which he does not
want disturbed by the courageous
