Hie dawning of the New hay that we
nre beginning to see. as never before
the horrible features of our creed Idols
The majority of Christ inns have no'
vet discovered the real cluirHCter ot
the Almighty. They nre in n tiensl
tion stnte. They no lunger worsh'i
their Idols us formerly, yet they stil
worship them. We can direct titer

form of godliness." without the pover
the force, the slreiifth which slieu'd
accoinpnny the worship of the t ri.v
God, rightly understood and properly
reverenced.
A Revulsion of 8ntimsnt
Tho dawning of the llrht of the New
Day of Messiah begins to wnUev us
from the nlghdnnres of the IarU Ams
We have Is'giiii to doubt our creed
Idols. Many have ceased their wor
ship altogether. Many others respect
them merely as fetishes of the past
Some are afraid Mint if the masses
cense to worship the Idols all rever
ence for holy things will pass away
nnd the world will lapse Into henthen
lh darkness. We should reiuembi-r.
on thu contrary, that we hire beeu in
I': J V S . . .1
i heathenish darkness, nnd are merely
i,..w .-..Hpli.g fr..m It. The bc.-.tlr-n
hae hud his idol of wood and stone
will); we have hud more ethereal ones.
The bea' Leas Idols are ugly enough,
yet far le-s horrible than the creed
Idols of civilized I;: nds. No excuse
will longer muflitam '..iol worship of
any kind.
Looking For the Truth
The great I'il'lciiity with the masses
is th.t. repudiating the idols, they are
lapsing Into iiiniosticism doubt. They
know tint what they believe. They
are looking for the Truth. They find
the leaders of the creeds still bowing
formally to the idols, but privately
repudiating them. Such lenders are
unworthy of confidence and only par
tially honest. Hungry and thirsty for
something to satisfy the craving of
their hearts, the famishing people are
turning toward pleasure. "They are
lovers of pleasure more than lovers of
Cod."
Comparatively few any longer be
lieve In purgatory or everlasting tor
ment, but they believe that these doc
trines have n Scriptural foundation,
Which tliey proportionately discredit,
tinl charge with being the source of
all their Ignorance and superstition In
the past. Willi faith in the P.ible gone.
Hie masses know not where to go nor
whom to trust respecting enlighten
ment regarding the future. They are
reaching the conclusion Hint every
thing is a big guess, mid that they
mny ns well do their own guessing us
to pay a minister to do It for them.
The situation !s a deplorable one.
An we have already intimated, human
ity Is so constituted that religion holds
the very highest place in his mental
organismthe seat of power and ron
trol in all the affairs of his life. With
no fixed conviction, men are drifting.
The learned are going Into Infidelity,
under the more refined name of High
er Criticism. The poor nnd less learn
ed are going Into doubt respecting any
Intelligent Creator or Supervisor. As
a matter of fact they are saying not
only there is no (Sod who would tor
ment mankind eternally, but appar
ently, There is no Cod who takes any
Interest lu humanity.
In this frame of mind Socialism ap
peals to them. They propose to bring
about "ParndUe Restored." by the
power of Socialism. They say to them
selves, "We are wit hunt a (iod, without
a future hope and without conlldence
In our former views, 'let us eat. drink
nnd lie merry' let us enjoy life let us
get all that we euil of pleasure out of
present existence, for we are hopeless
respecting n future one." Is It nny
wonder that the Apostle foretold that,
under these conditions, tic mames
would become more an I more pleas
ure-mad?
Thus we account for the great la-1
iiient that is going up from all
churches that the pews are empty, and
the collectlon-hoxcs empty, and that
the system W'.aiM Co down except for
the bene'-o -'iit wealthy, who really do
Hot believe i i the creed Idols, but who
desire that others shall believe In the:n
and worship them. In a word, the
crowds which once flocked to the
churches, wllh their nickels nnd pen
nies, now make for fhe tluntres and
crowd the hard, rough "bleachers" of
the ball grounds. Tliey have become
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of
(Sod, because the representations of
C,od III the various creeds are too re
pulsive, too Irrational, too devilish, to
lie longer believed ill or worshipped.
What the people need Is a general
smashing of all the creed Idols and the
unanimous return to the study of the
Itlble. nnd to the worship of 'the true .
(iod, which the P.ible sets forth.
Praaohsrt Art In Perplexity
No men iu the world are to be more
sympathized wllh than the preachers.
The treed Idols have been richly en
dowed by well nieiinlng votaries of the
past. The Interests of the clergy nre
all wrapped up with the interests of
the creed idols not only their ttmi n.-ial
Interests, but their honor, dignity,
titles. The ouestlon with the clergy
today Is, How can we smash the creed
Idols? How can we destroy them
without ourselves perishing with them?
If we tell the common people plainly
what we believe, they will nil leave
the creed idols. Tliey will nsk us. How
long is It since you came to this con
clusion? If we tell them that we have
not believed in our creeds for many
years, will they not call us hypocritical
and lose their conlldence In us? And,
besides, what could we offer them in
stead? It Is no sis-ret thnt the grent ma
jority of the educnted clergy nre total
unbelievers, not only In the creeds
which they profess, but also In the
Kihle-they call themselves 'Higher
Critics" and "revolutionists." They
have hoththii that they could teach the
people, except their doubts, their mls-
understundlngs. Having lost faith in
the creed Idols, they nre seeking for
the true (5sl, in whom the musses be
lieve little enough ns It is. They nre
hound to Cod nnd religious things by
a very slim cord composed of three
strnnds Ignorance, superstition and
natural reverence. The Ignornnce nnd
superstition will soon break, nnd nil
that will be left will bo mnn's natural
reverence. Now is the time for re
placing Ignornnce with knowledge, nnd
superstition with loving obedience to
the true (lod.
"A Famine In the Land"
When I was In Moston Inst June the
largest opera house of thnt Brent city
senting thirty six hundred, was crowd
ed; four hundred more, were behind
me on t lie platform besides those who
stood, and I learned afterwards that
hundred were turned away from the
doors. The next day the editor
of a religious Journal en lied on me,
Ills leading question waa: "Pastor
Russell, how do you explain the fa
thnt the people of all creeds, and of the
world, eome lu such crowds to your
aieoiliiKi? I waa present yesterday
at the Roston Theatre and witnosseo
hat vnst concourse of Intelligent peo
ple. As I looked at lljciu 1 ask.-d u.y
S'lf ttie quest ion 1 am now asking you.
How is ll that such crowds attend
your services, even In this sultry, sum
mer weather, when the summer re
sorts n ud Mfushore pleasures would
call them elsewhere, a ml while many
of our leading unit utile ministers, sup
ported by talented choirs, have small
attendance twenty, forty, fifty or so?
What is your explanation';' "
I replied. "My brother. 1 believe we
are witnessing a fulfilment of the
Scripture which says: 'There shall be
a famine in the land: Not a famine
for bread, nor a famine for water, hut
a famine for the hearing of the Word
of tho Lord" (Amos viil, 11). The pul
lie are getting their eyes too widely
opened to ever again respect the Cod
whom P.rother Calvin pictured n Cod,
All-Wise and All Powerful, but thor
oughly unloving, who foreordained aud
predestlnnted a saintly handful to
glory, anil the unsaintly thousands of
millions to an eternity of torture. We
once believed those tilings, but the
new morning of Cod's grace in Christ
Jesus Is gradually scattering the dark
ness. "Neither can we longer believe with
Rrot'ior Y.'ps-'uy that our Cod is good
nnd loving, nnd would like to save ev
erybody if He could, but was unwise
in Ills creation of man, nnd is larking
in power to direct the mutter now.
The people are hungering for some
thing belter-for something consistent
nnd rational nnd in accordance with
the Rible declaration, that Hivine Jus
tice, Wisdom, Love and Power are co
ordinate that Cod is Love, and Is as
Just and wise aud powerful ns He Is
loving. The people need to be shown
a theology which will accord with this
Divine character and with the Divine
statement that 'knowu unto the Lord
are nil His works from the beginning
of the world;' nnd again: 'My Word
that goeth forth out of My mouth shall
not return unto Me void, but shull ac
complish that which I please,' saith
the Lord, und shall prosper in the
thing whereto I sent it.' '
Bible Doctrine of Election
Christian people need to believe the
Rible doctrine of F.le. tion. but must
see It in a different light from thnt
which P.rother Calvin threw upon the
subject. Tliey must w ! tion from
the P.ible standpoint - Hie flection of a
saintly Church, n "little flock," "n roy.
nl priesthood, a holy people," to be the
Bride of Christ, nnd His Joint-heirs.
They must see that this "elect" Church
with the Redeemer is Cod's appoint
ed channel for the blessing of the non
elect world. They need to be shown
clearly that the saintly few. j-athered
first from the Jews, but subsequently
completed by additions of those of
saintly character of all nations, nre
with Christ to become the great Seed
of Abraham, the grent Messiah, Abra
ham's spiritual Seed, "like the stars
of heave;:." It must then be shown
why this spiritual Seed, has been "call
ed." "elei led." selected from amongst
ninnklnd-tlint it is for the very pur
pose of blessing the non-elect, the
masses of Adam's race, in harmony
with Cod's promise to Abraham "In
thy Seed shall nil the families of the
earth be blessed."
St. Paul refers to this spiritual Seed,
saying, "And to thy Seed, which Is
Christ." and "If ye be Christ's, then
are ye A bra ham's Seed nnd heirs
necordlag to the promise" iCnlutlans
III, 1(1. '.".. All these nre Heirs of the
great promise that has not yet been
fulfilled. The fulfilment waits until
the completion of a foreordained num
ber, nn elect "little flock" of Hie saint
ly few. Then these, changed by the
power of the First Resurrection, from
human nature to divine nature (II Pe
ter I. 4, will constitute the glorious
Kingdom of Messiah. The Kingdom
blessings will go (lrst to Abraham's
natural seed, nnd through them to nil
nations.
(Soil's character Is so great, so grand,
that. If seen by men. It would be rev
erenced. Cod's Plan of Salvation is so
grandly beautiful that, when rightly un
derstood nnd comprehended. It proves
more fascinating than nny novel.
The world has been kept nwny from
I od nnd from the Rible by the machi
nation of the Adversary. lie lias had
much to do with the formation of our
creed idols. Seeing men brenklng away
from error, in the Reformat lou time,
nnd groping ufter the Truth. Sntnn pre
sented himself "as nn angel of light"
nnd misguided our fathers Into the for
mation of their various creed. This
Is corroborated by St. Paul's words.
The god of this world hath blinded
the minds of them thnt believe not,
lest the glorious light of the goodness
of God. ns It shines In the face of .lesus
Christ our Lord, should shine into
their henrts" (II Corinthlnns Iv. 4).
The Adversnry did not wish us to see
with "the eye of our henrts" the glori
ous character of our Crentor. Ills love
for mankind nnd Ills glorious provision
for us. He wished, on the contrary, to
blind us with prejudice, to turn us
nwny from Cod nnd from the Rible.
And surely his plnn tins been measur
ably successful.
Nevertheless, Satan has gained no
real victory, lie has in no way hin
dered the finding of the "elect."
Rut her. we may assume that these
various, blinding Intluen.-es nnd stum
bling stones have but served to prove,
to test the love, loyalty, faith nnd
obedience of the "culled nnd chosen
und faithful."
If we have seen why the world is
going plensure-mnd, and if we hnvi
seen the step which should be tnkcu
to guide the well-intentioned Into the
ways of the Lord, let us, my beloved
hearer, not only be faithful ourselves
to the Lord's wny. but let us lift high
the Royal Runner of our God nnd of our
Savior, und "show forth tho prnlscs of
Illm who hath called us out of dark
Dwa Into Ilia mnrvctoita light "

C F. Cutlimariii arrived in the
city last Saturday evening from
Murphy. Idaho, where he is in the
general merchandise and lumber
business. He will make a two
weeks' visit with his parents and
other friends and relatives.
Charley is well pleased with the
western country, and while he is
living in a very small town it is
business from I he word go. Mur
phy has only about 100 people,
but the town has a modern water
works plant and is lighted with
electricity. Tt is the terminal
point of the railroad and many
mining camps and pretty fair
sized cities are supplied with their
freight of all kinds from Murphy,
being loaded into wagons and
carried to the various points. The
wagons are loaded with from ti,
000 to 10.000 pounds and are
drawn by from six to ten horses.
Mr. (iiitlimaiin also conducts
the freight and transfer depot at
Murphy, and in bad weal her the
freight for the various mining
ramps and little mountain cities
accumulates Quite rapidly, which
alone is no small task to look af
ter. Murphy is about fifty miles
from Ibu'se City and promises
some time in the near future to
