Sermon preached by Rev. C. H
Robinson, at First Methodist Epis-
copal church Sunday morning, Feb
27. Text I Timothy 3-1-* "The
church of the living God. the pillar
and ground of the truth." Me said
in part:
In these days of organizations and
societies it Is well for us to ask the
question, what Is tho relation of the
church to all these? Is it simply om
society among many, the peer of;
many similar organizations having
for their object tho amelioration ol
the condition of men If so how
ever worthy It is not a theme foi
thlR time or place*.
If any distinguishing trait In 1'cros
in the church It must ho apparent
The history of the church must de -
clare it.
The first mention of the church
is where Abraham the wandering
Arab, steeped in idolatry and super-
stition, crafty, unscrupulous, selfish
to the limit was transformed until
he was called the ‘friend of God
and so changed in his attitude toward
nieu that he said to his old enemy,
the king of Sodom "1 determined not
to lake so much us u shoestring from
you.” That Is a pretty good dart
is It not? In the church as developed
from him in the twilight ol history
it was provided that the corners of
wheat fields must not he gleaned but
left for tite poor, that the strayed ox
or ass of an enemy was to be re-
stored. that the fallen beast of bur
den of an enemy was to be lifted to
his feet. We hear much of "Human-
itarian" religion these days but It
started with a man who got right
with God first. That places the
church in a class by itself.
The Idea of God as held by the
church is unique, in other literature
you are confronted with drunken
Uachus, Voluptuous Venus, revenge-
ful Jove, angry Thor, Deity with a
lerr o ru scowl, but as far back as the
church can he traced tho gentleness
of God Is pori rayed In words that
have warmed their way into the heart
of humanity. Listen "Like as a
father pitleth his children so the
Lord pitleth them that fear Him.
"The Lord is my Shepherd.” This
conception of God alone would make
the church a necessity in all ages.
What was tho attitude of Jesus to
this church? To hear some men talk
you would think he was a eomeouter
too good to stay in the old church
of his fathers' but rather than that
he began his ministry by recognizing
one of Its most ancient ceremonies,
declaring, "it heeonteth us to fulfill
all righteousness.”
He charged his enemies with giv-
ing tithe, of might nnisc and cummin
and forgetting the weightier matters
of the law, Justice, mercy ami truth.
His last public act was to celebrate
one of the oldest feasts of the church
He said concerning His mission
am come not to destroy but to fulfill.
With such unqualified endorsement
from the Master we would expect
the servant to exclaim as does Haul
"The church of the living God, the
pillar and ground of the truth." To
ail that has been said we must add
then that the church is the reservoir
of religious truth. That is not to
say that there is not error in the
church. It has its human side there-
fore its mistakes, but the fact re-
mains that in the church and not out
of It you find the truth. When the
church has harbored error it has
suffered but the correction of the
error came from within the church
and not out of it. Savonorola. Lu-
ther. Knox, Wesley and the whole
glorious galaxy of reformers were in
the church and did their work for
her and their Lord.
This church is our heritage. Faith-
ful men and women worked well in
their day and we have entered into
their labors. The church of our
children wll be what we hand over to
them. Nothing more wonderful than
this that after we have said the
church of the living God we can also
aay it Is our church. lts weal or
woe is with us. May we find it in
our hearts to say with the poet,
"Beyond my highest Joys
I prize her heavenly ways.
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
