By REV. W. BEHNKEN
Putor of Trinlly Lulhtran CHorch
Houston, Tiu
: Wo would aak, then, to whom alone
pught a Christian burial bo granted?
,Our answer is short and concise a
Christian's burial ought to bo granted
only to Christians nnd to no ono olso,
'oven if ho wero the mightiest ruler
on earth. Is that nnswor not clear,
plain and concise enough? Now, lot
lis look at that matter a llttlo closer.
When I soe a funeral procession
composed of heathens, headed by n
heathen priest, I concludo that tho de
ceased was n hoathon. Whon I boo
Jows, headed by a rabbi, in funernl
processions, I rightly concludo that tho
decoasod wns a Jew, Whon a com
pany of men wenrlng aprons or bndgos
or othor paraphernalia fallow a cof
fin. I concludo that tho deceased Was'
n lodge member. When I seo a cof
fin decked with tho country's flag, ac
companlcd by military men, nnd when,
I Bee military rites porformcd nt tho
grave, I can safely concludo that thq
deceased waa n soldier. And when1
I soe tho Christian congregation, with
tholr pastor, at tho gravo and hear
them sing or pray or ubo tho word ot
Cod,' ought to bo nblo to concludo
that tho doccascd wns a Christian and
died a Christian doath.
Is that not right? Ought wo not to
bo nblo to concludo that? Yes, wo
ought to, and years ago wo could, but
nowadays you cannot. Almost dally
you can bco whero so-called Christian
ministers officiate nt tho graves-of open
unbellcvors, suicides, criminals and
the llko. Is this not true? Thoy aro
not abashed to grant such who havo
died in open unbollef a Christian bur
ial. That is shameful, unspeakably
horrlblo.
But, they say, "you cannot Judge
others, you cannot seo Into their
heart whether thoy -wero Christiana or
not, whethor thoy havo died In tho
fnlth or not God says: "Judgo not.
that yo bo not Judged," nnd that is
what you do whon you deny them n
Christian burial.
Now, my dear friends, it in true that
wo cannot look into other men's henrts
,to seo whether thoy aro upright Chris
tians or not But we do know, and
that most assuredly, what kind of peo
plo are not Christians, namely, thoso
who despised tho word of God nnd
tho sacraments and refused to mnko
uso of tho meanB of graco and that
such peoplo are not Christians, wo
know from tho word of God that can
not Ho. Christ says In unmistakable
words: "Ho that Is of God hoaroth
God'B word."
And God nlso says: "Because thou
lhast rejected knowledge, I will nlso
rojoct thee." Think of this a mo
ment, Thero is a mnn who knows our
church doors aro open to him, ho
knows thut the ringing of tho bells In
vlto him, but ho passes by.
i nsic overyono wno still nas a
spark of consclonco In him, ought such
man to havo n Christian burial?
Ought we to open the door to such a
person, who refused to enter them
when alive? Shall wo confess that wo
look forward to his resurrection into
everlasting llfo? Is that donylng tho.
faith, donylng Christ as tho only hopo
of salvation? Do wo not know thnt
God Bays, "Blessed aro tho dead who
:dlcd in tho Lord?" Shall wo alter or
'chango this? Lot ub remember that
Jod said: "Bo not deceived, God is
not mocked.
It is Just this gross denial of faith
at tho graves of tho ungodly that
causes mon to becomo Indifferent In
religious matters. Christianity is
therefore laid bare to open ridlculo.
Mon will ask, "Why Bhould I run to
church? When I dlo thoy can oaslly
get n preacher who will bury mo for
ten dollars and will preach as flno n
Bermon na for thoso who constantly go
to church 7"
But somo will say, "Ho will not men
tlon tho deceased nt all. Wo do not
.want to havo tho Impression thnt tho
'deceased Is blosBod and eternally
saved." That makes matters worso
'still. Then thoy becomo hypocrites
By tho fact that tho deceased Is not
mentioned In tho prayers they show
Iho Is not worthy of it. .
' Thoy 8tnud thero as Christian mln
lstcrs and yot d,o not daro to mention
tho docenscd, becauso tnoy and every
ono present knows that ho was not n
(Christian, nnd thnt n Christian mln
;istor has no business there.
But thoy say, "Wo aro preaching to
tho living and not tho dead:" What,
iiro wo burying tho living? Is It not
tho dead to whom tho honor of a Chris
.tlon burial is given? And do they say
that thoy want to comfort the surviv
ors? How shall thoy comfort? If thoy
;8ay tho deconsed is saved, thoy aro
guilty of n falsehood or If thoy spoak
tho truth aud say tho deceased did
not dlo n Christian and cannot bo
'paved, then thoy havo aroused a storm
of hatred against themsolvcs. Or
khnll they preach repontnnco there?
That will fall also. Aro thoy not ofll
elating at tho burial of an unbollover
Will not tho peoplo say, "If what you
say bo truo, why, aro you hero grnntlng
,a Christian burial to an unbcllover?
Oh, my friends, lot ub romembor
'Blessed nro tho dead (and only thoy)
who dlo In tho Lord." And to thorn
alono ought a Christian burial be
granted. If they havo boon hypocrites
nnd docoived us, thoy will find tholr
Judge whom they cannot docelvo. But
as for us, may Qod grant us graco
that wo may not deny tho fnlth nor
deny tho Saviour by granting Christian
burials to such as havo not died in
tbo Lord.
