THE COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1 913-EVENING EDITION. m I Saw airadl Heard ait Church The Same Being a Visit To the First Presbyterian Church of Marsh field. & By A. GLOBE TROTTER benefits of which nro m HE first thine I hoard, even Hovers, the T before I went In, was the Important, squeak of the front tloor. Hum the Greatest Mo-miho. It's a stnnll thing, I know, to men- "Thoro Is nothing which meets tlon, jot It served Its purpose to tho demands of the times as does ,,. , ,, .,, Christianity. There Is nothing announro my coming to all tho whch ,mB nlrcady lont ltsolr n8 worshippers. Some squeaks stay In lnuc, for tno betterment of human ohurch doors longer than In other Ity as tho religion of Jesus Clirlst. doors. I think, howover, that the "Kducutlon does not ciiango the sexton heard It and It Is enough rascal's heart. Civilization does not now to hope that It Is no more. stop the crimes of tho Inhabitants Tho service was an Impressive of Monte Carlo. Neither has art otto, tho singing by tho trio of or law In the course of years chang volccs was Inspiring and understand d tho trend of humanity and raised able. And while tho people wor- It higher. Hut Christianity Is real shipped It occurred to mo many ly man's only hopo socially, and times, "What a pity tnoro of tho spiritually and every way. Tho Hnrshflcld residents could not bo church Is the only organization present to enjoy the spiritual uplift which can nud djen solve the deep nnd gain new Inspiration for life's est of man's proMotns, struggles." I Not Perfect. Tho sermon by tho now pastor,1 "If is imperfect becauso It Is Jlev. J. 12. Dtirlchnrt an J I learned mndo up of Imperfect Individuals, that tho churches of .Marshfleld .Many hold tho church too highly, liavo mostly new pastors, was not The church is not to bo worshipped, tho address of a novice, but the but Is the means of promoting re masterpiece of tho experienced. Ho llglon. Paul know of tho church's has a pleasant manner, yet withal Imperfections and ho spoko of thorn; a firm seriousness that commands also he overlooked them, attention nil tiio time. I "Thus many have objections In this morning's sermon ho which they mako to the church mndo us think of "Tho Challenge of , and they say slio is 'too narrow.' tho Church to tho World, ' and took . Well, I will answer, maybe some of .a single expression found In tho1 tho pcoplo in it nro narrow, but not Scriptures, "Tho church of tho I.lv-.tho church of tho Living Cod. "Hy ing Cod." "It is not," said he, pocrltes' say others. This Is true, nut tiio smallest man Is tho one "doslrnhlo to Hvo In a community told of churches or church Influ ence. .Many net toward tho church liko the little girl who said of Santa Clntis, 'Wo don't belluvo in you but wo like your gifts. Mony wish to share the blessings of tho church, but not tho church herself. I mean many do not want to shnro in tho .church any of her responsibilities. Of Divine Origin. "Whatever view wo have, we must remember that tho church Is of di vine origin. It Is spoken of In our text us 'Tho church of tho Living Cod.' Tho family Instinct Is at the bnso of tho home. Tho commercial instinct Is nt tho base ot business. Tho dramatic Instinct causes our theaters. The frnternnl Instinct, tho lodges, And so on, tho Idea of Justice produces our courts, the same as with education, our schools, nnd charity our hospitals. Thus with the religious Instinct wo hnvo tho church or the Living Cod. dud ordained, Even ns one has truly aid: 'Itcllglon establishes churches nnd In turn tho churches promote religion.' You might ns well try to hnvo art without schools of nrt, or try to bo charltnblo ulona without organizations of charity us to try to promote rollglon without organi zation of religion. (rente! Institution ,if (u An-'. "ir nil tho churches were de stroyed todny there would no churches tomorrow. Why? Ilo rauso (lod Is tho great Head. Men try to lie religious even uloiie and hnvo failed utterly In tho main. Their lives become so selfish nnd nolf-centered. They become sour ov en to everybody. Hut In Uo church wo nnvo tho companionship of be- who can himself nocurolv lilitn lin hind n hypocrite. "Of all, tho church of the Liv ing (lod Is the most blessed Institu tion In the whole world nud meets tho needs of our huinnu experiences and therefore demands our prcsonco and our responsiveness to the call to worship tho Living God." When the collection was announc ed I noticed n gonoral movement pockotwnrd and 1 Judged that this congrcgntlon docs not como to get merely but to express appreciation In n tnnglblo form. No one shook hands with mo ex cept tho pastor, his glad face and hand found mo Just at tho door, which mndo mo feel like not going nwny nt all, Just then. To confess I rnn n race with him llko so ninny strangers always do In church nnd i lieu go away nnd tell how unso clablo the people wore. He Is n now pastor In tho city, having come from n successful pas torate, nt KoBohurg, whero a splen did now church was built. I learn ed thnt ho has been In tho ministry nbout 12 years nud wns educated nt .McCorinlck Theological Seminary, iniciigo. 1 finally concluded that such men by thoir dally nud weok ly ministrations nro accomplishing nn untold ninount of good nnd thnt they aro laboring quietly, steadfast ly nud ofton times unnppreelutcdiy for tho highest nnd best In n com munity. I hnvo not been going to church much of Into, hut 1 believe thnt I will soon ngaln. I forgot to mention that u Indv who, I prcsumo wns tho pastor's wife, song In good voice, n solo, In such n nmniior ns to permit us to hour every word. She seemed to bo nneresieii nerseif in what she sang. ono hour. A special Invitation Is extended to all young men nnd women. Evening worship nt 7.30 with sermon by Pastor Uassford on "The Waste of Wealth." This is tho see nnd sermon on tho Bcrlcs on " V Young Man Who Saw Life." Hi you hear It, you will enjoy It. Special music by n Inrgo chorus choir under tho direction of Prof Georgo Ayre. Tho public, and especially non- church goers nro cordlnlly Invited to share tho benefits of these ser vices with us.
