UNITED CHURCHES OF NORWICH

mold to write life Of George Washing
ton or Irgersoll to write a life of Dwight
L. Moody. They couldn't understand
those men.
The first thing for every Christian
worker to do is to come in touch with
God with his own soul. No man can do
anything for anyone else until God has
done something for him. Jonathan Ed
wards said: 81 make it my first business
to look after the salvation of my own
soul" He was taken to task for that
statement. His was called a selfish atti-
tude. But how could he look after the
soul of any one else until his own soul
was set right?
DR. Goodel quoted Horace Bushnell as
an example Of man who has the divine
touch on his own soul. You can see by the
lives of these great men who have changed
the face of the world that a man has to
have himself before he can give TO 9TH
ers.
A creed without life hands on the bougls
of time like a last years birds nest; it
is good for nothing until there is life in it.
Truth incarnate is the only kind Of truth
that amounts to anything. It isn't
enough to have an intellectual conception
of the truth.
The only wa you can experience any
thing is through life. If you have a Chris
tan life GU ought to be doing business
| with God.
If you have had experience, then you
| have something that knocks all opposition
| down. You know what you are TALKING
about. You can't go out to win others tC
Jesus until you have the conviction IN
your own soul of His power to save. Il
| you haven't had it you can have it when
| ever you are willing to pay the price
When you have it, your whole Hfe, YOU
ministry is changed Each of us is a min
lister Of Christ. VIII you accept tht
call?

o'clock with the singing of a hymn witt
