CLERGYMAN AND CRIME.

The leading newspapers of the land stressng
late the frequent of crime amongst ministers of the
Gospel.
1t is true that grab the sensational when
it Human nature demand SUCH and the
ready to give what their readers like to know.
Crime in all it's phases stuff eagerly persued good
taken for granted the evil emphasized by wide publication
and the columns Of the contain all such hand
But when of God falls from grace, it is specially
tasty morse of and eagerly devoured by hungry multi
tude He higher place the temple of purity
than ordinary human beings and when he drops there
dull thud heard throughout the land
It has been felt for centuries that clergyman should be
specially fortified against evil thoughts words and Deeds He
supposed have experienced such radical change
and moral constitution make him against
toward influence Of wicked and designing world He credited
with living close to the side of cruced Lord separate
himself from base humanity He considered to have clothed
himself securely in the of salvation defy all the
darts which Satan might hu against him. He supposed
have profted greatly by Divine teaching and become
sped by Divine Influences to constitute advisor anted
by human sin incapable of human fraility.
But surely such creature would be equal
would pretensons of vcegeen of the Almighty and
take to himself all the attributes of Deity.
After ALL the preacher is being like the
tails True it is that he has entered calling which brings into
greater publicity mans effort reclaim degradation
of SIM He constituted leader in the waged against world

wckedness should fight harder than the
ranks. AS good general in the Army of Christ he is just
much exposed the deadly fire of Saars hosts any other
Christian soldier And because while fighting the battles of his
Lord, he might fall victim of the attack his moral
death to be dpored than that Of the meekest Of his
warriors?
many would that the clergyman is credited with
too many virtues he is crowned with halo of Righteousness
which often exists only in the minds of his palisone he is
clothed with responsibilities which be bourne only by the
owy of Israeli and he charged with conduct in life often
too correct for humanity to follow
his weakness does not ncapactate him from working
the will of the Savior Indeed told that Gle tempted
all like are The meek and oWly peacer he who
presses his flock that he struggling to follow the path map
ped by the Great Teacher that he beset the owest
by the temptations of this mundane sphere that he desires
dedication; that he poses sanced being but sinful
but sorrowfu mansuch to leader
he who t1umpets more loudly his special righteousness
So when the sin of clergyman is buted about when much
made the fall of him who has stood and preached to others
himself become castaway well to stop and think
of him HUMANE After ALL he have done what he could
his mnstraons may have from spirit of fighting the
ditch and his may have been committed with prayer
for forgiveness his lips and despalng of weakness
from his sinsick soul.
Be charitable to the ering matter what line of life he
follows and above ALL be careful not to point the finger of
at the Church ITSELF because of it's weakest brethren has
fallen by the wayside.
