ONE THING IN WHICH THE PULPIT WILL NEVER HAVE DANGEROUS COMPETITION Mr. Preacher, when you preach science, either true or false, the acad emicians can beat you. When you preach politics, the politicians and pa pers can beat you. When you preach doubt and infidelity, the Ingersolls and Tom Paynes and rationalistic pro fessors of learning can beat you. When you preach the natural good ness of man, every sycophant who wins favor by fawning can beat you. When you offer classical music, the opera can beat you. When you go in for “ attractive” novelities e v e r y amusement house can beat you. When you go in for stiff forms and cere monials, the social clubs can beat you. Mr. Preacher, even if you hardly know the Christ yourself, even if you only follow afar off some glimmerings of that truth that makes your calling the greatest on earth, it certainly does look as if common, ordinary horse sense would lead you to preach some thing else in which you can beat all the others “ hands down.” That some thing else happens to be the Cross of Christ, the only thing you ever had any business preaching anyhow! Be sure, Mr. Preacher, that neither the world, the flesh nor the devil will ever compete with you in the performance of your real job. They are strong for religion, but never, never never the Christ and Cross religion! !—Western Recorder.
