SERMON GIVEN
BY MAYFIELD
Senator Says Nation
Destined to Carry
Christianity

taking for his text the twelfth
verse Of the thirty-third Psalm:
~Blessed u the nation whose God
is Jehovah" Senator Earle b. May
field delivered a lay rno al the
First Methodist church Sunday
morning TO an audience that filled
the building to capacity.
The address was delivered along
lines to show that America is a ma
tion founded upon the providence Of
God and destined TO carry the Chris
tian religion to the nations Of the
world.
"Not only was the origin Of
America providential," the senator
said. "but through all the years God
has been preparing her to carry 70
the bleeding nations Of the earth the
religion of Jesus Christ.
1.-The entire history and develop
tnent Of our great country has been
foreshadowed BY a hand divine, ana
that By reason Of such Divine Prov
idence IL il the duty Of Americans
% see, 50 far as lies within their
power, that the world il reconstruct
ed upon the basis of the teachings
Of Jesus Of Nazareth, the Savior or
mankind"
Senator Mayfield stated that the
discovery OF America came az a time
when the Renaissance was thrilling
all Europe with a new intellectual
Impulse and when the Reformation
was workiag its religious purifica-
tion. He asserted that no other ma
tion had ever been blessed with such
founders as ours, and that while
they lived in an age that tried mems
sould and tested mems faith, yet
they had an unaltering faith IN God,
and that finally the spirit of the
Creator controlled the Philadelphia
constitutional convention.
The senator recited the fact that
after four months Of hard labor.
when Il had begun 10 appear that all
efforts 70 create a constitutional
form Of government would result IN
failure, the delegates appealed to
the God Of Nations 20 guide them in
selecting the best governmental svs-
TEN that would carry to the world
Righteousness and peace, and then
was adopted without further delay
the constitution OF the United States,
which Gladstone declared was sthe
greatest work ever struck off at any
n time by the mind and purpose of
man"
Senator Mayfield declared. "She must
source Of greatness of Americas
earlier statesmen was their religious
belief and faith in God. and that the
Declaration Of Independence and
Constitution Of the United States
found their origin in the Christian
religion.
America cannot hold aloof from
the war-town and bleeding world IN
these times Of sorrow and Distress"
eSnator Mayfieid declared. "She must
carry her message of comfort and
health to the stricken nations Of the
earth. and the church must see that
society, when Il is again recon
structed, is Christian. and that when
schools are built again in the war
stricken areas. they be not infidel.
ard that Christian principles must
permeate the warp and woof or the
new social order that must arise
from the ruins OF war. The world
Is lost in midnight darkness unless
