Cr-jfta Preaches an Able Sermon at the Congregational Church , KNIGHTSTEMPLAR FOR ST. LOUIS Tito Council IlluiTN Delegation Leave on n Special Train 'ilio Hotel Sulieinc Itcvlvcil llliifl'-i News. 'SKUVixcj ' con UNDi'ii rnoTKsr. " Sermon by Hev. O. W. Crofts , at tlio CoiiKrcKntlonal Cllllrcb. Sunday morning Kev. G. W. Crofts reached a sermon on the subject of 'Serving God Under Protest. " His t "ct was II Cor. , ix , 0-7. "But this 1 ay : he which sowcth sparingly shall also reap sparingly ; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. "Every man as he purposcth in his heart , so let him give ; not grudgingly or jf necessity , for Go > l loveth a cheerful giver. " He said that what first suggested this subject was the roninrk made by a brother minister in response to one of my own that it pained mo to go into n house of worship that was inconvenient , uncom- 'ortable and unsatisfactorily adorned. Sain ho : "Well , the fact is , a great deal that is done in the name of rcl Igion is done miler protest. " What ho said was not only true as a fact , -but the painful sequel of so much that H hindering and discour aging in the cause of Christ. Itsuggestcd the unpleasant thought that in very many instances and in so many ways men consecrated themselves to Christ , ind gave of their means , not because : heir hearts wont out after Christ as one they really desired to serve , not because ihey esteemed it a privilege to bo PO- laborers with Christ in the advancement of his kingdom , but because they felt compelled to do this in soiuo way that this .service was not of free happy choice , but of sad and rcgrettul compulsion. That when they were called iipon to do something for their own or others spiritual welfare tlmy did it as if saying , " 1 enter my protest against my own personal service or sacrifice. " Now , th'-ro can be no doubt of the truthfulness of this charge brought against us. Much of the work done in the name of Christ is done under protest. It is not all of this character. There are times in the experience of oaeli one when it is a pleasure to perform the ( service re quired. There are many liberal souls in the kingdom , who esteem it a pleasure to do what they can , and who crave a larger ability. There have been generous souls that God has touched with tlio linger of liis love that have poured out their liba tions upon his altar as from an over burdened heart they have come like the gushing stream from ono of jiature's fountains of life and purity. And while these have made the world richer they have never made themselves poorer. "Did you over , " said a colored preacher , "know of a church dying on account of its giving ? If you have toll mo where it Is buried ; and I will go there by the soft light of the moon , and I will lift my hands towards heaven , over that grave anil say : 'Blessed am do dead dat die m do Lord. ' " Liberality digs but few graves in this world. If 'it over should make a grave it would be an honoi able one. Liberal ity starves few churches , and shrivels up few souls , said one who know. "Give and it shall bo given to you. Pressed down , shaken together ami running over shall men pour into your bosom. " So , as wo look at the record already made : as wo look at the work done , at the churches built in the heart of the metropolis and out on tlio plains , on the heights of civilization and the depths of barbarism , as wo look at the college founded , at the presses send ing forth the mighty tides of Christian literature , as wo look at the benevolent institutions established and maintained bv Christian enterprise and liberality we know that there must bo in the world some who have done their work , not under protest , but with a willing spirit and a generous hand. But at the same time not onb-toiitli part of what ought to bit done has been done. The demand lias always been greater than the supply , and all because there has been a withholding on the part of God's people of that in fluence and the means necessary for the rapid prosecution of the work placed in their hands. As much labor as the church is devoting , and as much money as it is expending in its various enter prises nt home and abroad , it is but a fraction of what it might and ought to do. The church would resent with pain and indignation the logical inference of its own acts. We cannot blame the world if , in its judgment , it applies the rule of the Master , "By their fruits ye shall know them. " Indeed , this doing things under protest , and what comes ot it , is an intensely vital question. It is not because the world opposes the church that it is not a greater force and making greater progress , but rather because the church to so largo an extent allows its forces to lie dormant. It is because what it does it does so largely under protest. If instead of apathy or protests there was all along the line of Christ's vast army a hearty and spontaneous rising up and going forward , there would be little attention paid to the caviller. 1 admit that the church docs much inr.ch in the way of elevating society , much in the way of spir itual and moral reform , much in the moulding of character and making good citizens as well as saints. Bi t what I say is , Unit itmight do a great deal more. It might do its work HO cheerfully and willingly that the efi'ect would be toil times as great and goqd. Now , whoa the world says that the church has but little interest in what it protcssoj to believe of the utmost importance , how ave wo to answer the charge ? Wo all know that where ono man or ono woman is hcartih * engaged in the ap propriate work of the church there are ten hangers on. That where there is ono hearty , live consecrated soul there are ten wno are careless and unconcerned. This we know to bo a painful fact , ami how are we going to successfully meet the charge of the worltl when it is brought against us ? Shall wo say that men feel a deeper interest in these tlilngsthun is ap. paiont ? Wo may say this very truly , but the apolocy tloea not go for much in the argument. It is not by feeling but by fruits that we are known. And then , I apprehend that if u man's feelings and convictions are as strong us they should be , ho will not rejt until an effort is made in that which most harmonizes with them , But feeling , unaccompanied by action , is a pool thing. Good wishes of themselves never made an ) * advancement in this world. They have never built a church nor n school house ; they have never comforted the mourner , healed the sick , clothed the naked , nor fed tlio hungry. Says Jesus : "Blessed are those servants whom His Lord , when He coineth , shall find so doing. " Doing , not feeling , is to bo taken as an evidence of merit and loyalty , and as a basis of re ward. Wo want not loss feeling , but more doing. The church needs to move , not merely by a representative few , not bv proxy ; not by its officers ; not through some consecrated souls who are already uoing all in their power , but it should move en masse , as ono mighty army , not failing to close up the r.uike when ono falls , keeping the army solid and ever moving on to the destruction of tlio works of the enemy. It is sad and painful that the church is wank while the elomcnts of pow er arc hin r dormant nil around it. It i = id that it niu to\i > r bo calling for rt-sUlnncn , and ojii-n calljiu ; in va-.n. O , shall it al ways bo Mild tnai n r"at great i pal that js < [ ono In the name ol religion is Jo no iiiiticr protest. If so , Hum 3011 may over look for a weak nnu tlUcouragcd minis try ; for mcngro means with which to canyon the \\ork of the Lord ; for few conversions out of the weakened Inllu- cnco of religion a it Hews upon the world through n half hearted following of L/'hrist. If zeal without knowledge is bad , knowledge without zeal is worse. Mary , who broke the alabaster box of ointment anil poured the contents on the head of her Savior , did not do it under piotcst , but from u loving , grateful licait. Jndas was tlie ono \\lio protested. And Christ , who broke his heart to perfume the world , did so willingly. Now for the remedy First. Let each feel his individual re sponsibility. Second. Let each feel how much Jesus has done for him , how inueli Christ has suffered in his behalf ; whatbcnetitsChriht lias brought him , how blessed the service of Christ is , what joy and peace it gives lierc , and what glory in the world to come. Lot him lake a wide view of the work ot redemption ami metlilnks ho will then account no cllort too great in return. Third Let the church Invoke the bap tism of the Holy Ghost.
