"i ; THE MORXIXG OREGOyiAN, 3IOSDAY. OCTOBER 19, 1903. I J BELIEVES! OLD GOSPEL MESSAGE With It- Church Can Meet Great Problems of Today, Asserts Heppe. SAYS POWER IS NOT LOST Methodist Pastor Declares That Old Fashioned Sermons Draw Better Than Discourses Based on Modern Thought. That the church of today does not need a new message, but an Intensification of the message now being preached from the pulpits of the country, was the state ment of Ir. William H. Heppe in his ser mon at the Clrace Methodist Episcopal Church yesterday morning. He said that the crowds go where Uy hear the gos pel told In language that is devoid of liig-h-soundlns; phraseology. Dr. Heppe said. In part: If the church of today Is to meet present dav needs. It must have a true, clean-cut. evangelical message. The needs of the hour are so great and varied, and the times are o big with destiny "that the church, to be equal to the demands, must deliver a message that will fit Into our period, and reach and transform the thought and heart life of today. Time of Great Opportunities. The church could ak for no creater op portunity for power than to be planted in this century. When John Brignt. the fcng lish Liberal, was asked. "If you were asked to choose out of all time a period to Uve In. what wouid be your choice?" he replied I would be born now." If the church were to choose a period for the large.it possible spiritual and social service, she would choose the present as a theater for action. To stand as Christ did. In the midst of the doctors In the Temple, and speak a message to an age of conceited philosophies, of endhsss panaceas, of shift ing political conditions, of daring social re forms, of gigantic commercial ventures, of marvelous ... lenliflo discoveries. Is to face an opportunity and bear a responsibility the measure of which cannot be deter- ""mv1 conviction is that ths church la on trial Not In all her history has she had such problems to cofe with as those forced upon Tier today. There is very much truth In Lyman Abbott s reply to the Question. Is Christianity a Failure?" "I do not know" he said: "it has never been tried rertatnlv. In the light of the Sermon on the Mount and the ultimate reign of righteous ness. Christianity has not been trljd Eaca generation has tried some little pnrt of it. according to Its measuro of light, but when It shall be tried in the fullness and richness and trueness of Its teachings and power, the world will witness a different spectacle than the present age. with us wrongs. Injustices, vices and selfishness, presents. The Penund for "w Message. At first thought we are Inclined to an swer "Yes" to the question. "Does the church need a new message for today? Such an age as the present would seem to demand It. The measure of Paul's time would hardly seem suited to our time. And yet I'anl'i mes-aga must be the church e message today. The church does not need a now message, but it needs to speak 1'aul'l m'. "I am determined not to know anything among you. save Jesus Christ and Him crucified." with a nw emphasis, a new voice, a new convic tion, a new application, and a new au thority. , ... It l to be d-plored that so many pulpits In our and other lands thing that the tios pel of Christ has lest, or Is losing, its drawing power Is this true? Has the message of the I5rel of Christ lost its divine potenrv? Is Us power waning? Is It not equal to the strain and demands of modern days? A pastor erf the Kast traveled egtenslvely In England and Scotland a few years ago. In conversing with different clergymen he says that some of the younger ministers said that the reaching of the Gospel, pure and simple, would no longer draw and hold the people: that the people of this age of advanced thought and Intelligence must be met with the ;oepel cast In new moulds of thought and new forms of speech, and modified t-T the discoveries of the age. The older ministers, however, and the more in telligent spiritual lay members were grieved at the condition of things, and many of the people said to him. "What we want Is spir itual food, and that we expect only from the simple presentation of the Gospel truth-- . Pastor Make ot1 Teat. Here were two conflicting opinions, the ene denying the drawing power of the cross In this age. and the other represent ing a class who were hungering for It. He resolved to test the truth of each state ment. His first Tlslt was to a large church in a large city. He said the congregation was small but select, the preacher a schol arly young man. the service cold and for mal, the sermon along the line of modern thought, but without spirit or power to draw and hold. He then determined to follow the crowds In the morning he went to bear nr. Par ker, who for more than 30 years had been the' pastor of the City Temple in London. When toe hour for service arrived the vast audltoTlum was crowded. What drew the masses? Was It some phase of modern science or philosophy under discussion, or some Issue of political or social science? No. The service wss purely evangelical and simple, and the sermon bad no uncertain sound In It: It was pure Gospel from begin ning to end. riveting the attention from first to last. In the afternoon he went to Westminster Abbey and there heard Canon Duckworth deliver before no less than 200 people a plain, earnest, practical Gospel ser mon. In the evening he worshipped in Christ Church, and again, before an as sembly of 2-HX or more, heard the "glorious Gospel of the Blessed God." pure and sim ple, from the ltps of the Rev. F. B. Meyer (Riifus Choate). The Gospel has not lost Its drawing power. The church does not need a new message, but an Intensified message. In answer to the appeal of the masses, 'let others trail the banner of the cross In the dust. If they must, but this pulpit shall ur.furl Its crimson folds for the hope, Joy and peace of e!n-hurdened humanity. RET. W. T. EISTER WILL VSE UP-TO-DATE METHODS. Method lt Preacher Deliver First Sermons at Sunnyside Church to Large Congregations. "'. the narrow gauge railroads in this country are being changed to broad gauge lines, and the churches must also be broadened and run on the same pro gressive lines." declared Rev. tV. T. Knster. the new pastor of Sunnyside Methodist Church, yesterday morning. In his first message to the congregation. Every eeat in the church and Sunday school room was occupied and a sympa thetic congregation welcomed Rev. Mr. Euster to his Portland charge. The morning address 'was a heart-to-heart talk by the rastor to his people, out lining his plan and policies for the com ing year. A Rev. Mr. Euster'a reputation for effective work preceded him there was much Interest in his opening remarks. He spoke for a very broad-gauge church organiratlon. and declared that up-to-date progressive methods must be used in the churches. He favored something new. striking and effective, but txtck of it all he said must be the rclx-ion of Jesus Christ and the salvation of men. He said: ' Two of tea hardest and most trying events In the life of a minister are when be comes to say farewell to bis former congregation and to deliver his first message to the new congregation, in the economy of Methodism we have a very great va riety of preachers, no two being alike, for were they alike there would be no need of a change. It is difficult for new preacher to deliver his first message, for he knows he 4s different from the mas whom he succeeds, and he knows the con gregation will notice the difference. I am not here to preach this morning, but to have a heart-to-heart talk with you peo ple I bring you the greetings of your former pastor. Dr. Ford, who hag entered on his new work at Pendleton. At the start I want to say that I desire the active co operation of you people. If any one sees where a thing can be done better, I want that one to come and let me know. I am a better minister by criticism, but might backslide if there should be too much praise. I don't expect to be sensational, but will use methods that attract. The Episcopal Church, our mother, has methods we might retain. The Presbyterians have features that are commendable. You can never win a Roman Catholic by criticising his church. We should commend the good things in the Catholic Church. We have to do things quickly and promptly, for the ago calls for quick action all along the line. wo need variety. Our evening services should be different from the morning services. We should be broad-gauge. I am a be liever In printer's ink. and believe trie church should advertise. The pastor ought to spend $75 a year In postage stamps and stationery. He ought to have nis typewriter In operation every day. resell ing people through the malls. New meth ods have been adopted that have built up dormant churches, and books have been written on the subject by men who have resuscitated and breathed lite into dead churches. . - We want a live, moving church, and I believe this church to be one of that sort You already have one of the best organised churches In ths Oregon conference. I knew of a church that was full of dignity and etatellness. It had a beautiful church building and all the services were Just so, rounded out and stately, but that church did not reach the people. I believe in a live, working church. . At the conclusion of the morning serv- V-i - 1 4 s - i f y - y a Kcv. W. T. Foster. Who Begin T"ae torate of Sunnyside Mctbodist Chorea. ices Rev.

FORMAL WORSHIP SUBJECT Empty Performances of Church goers Without Heart and Spirit Are Objectionable to God, 6ays Pastor. Another attack on Christian Science doc trines was made by Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher In his sermon at the White Temple last night. His subject was "The Automatic Calf," the second in his series on the "Ten Commandments Up-to-Date." He spoke In part as follows: Colonel Ingersoll in his effort, .to destroy the forca of this commandment said tnat if it were fully obeyed it would destroy all art. This Is not true. The commandment forbids our worshipping an Imaga of God or of worshipping God by means of an image. The commandment has no relation whatever to the adornment and decoration of the home or even of the house of God. God rave to man an imagination and In tended for him to use 1C The masterpieces of sculpture and art are worthy of a promi nent place in any home or temple. God has adorned this whole universe with mag nificent scenes and man has a riant to re produce them whenever he can. But they are not to be worshipped nor made the means of approach to God. - According to Ingersoll's theory, photog raphers woud have to go out of business. I have had some pictures taken and after I got them I have wished I could apply this commandment to the photographer and put him out of a Job. Men and women object to being misrepresented, even in a photograph- It is not possible to produce an Image of God without degrading and misrepresenting Him. Dr. McAfee de scribes an Idol in Ceylon: "It has awful staring eyes, a long tongue protruding from the mouth and dripping with blood. In one hand flashes a keen-edged knife, in an other it holds ths bleedin head of a vic tim, its feet rest on the beheaded body, and Its nrfck is ornamented with a necklace of grinning skulls. It Is the god of ven geance, of punlshnent, of wrath. Isolating for your thought that one attribute of God." Idolatry Is Forbidden. But such a representation of God Is a slander upon His nature and character. Even If we do not worship the image, the commandment forbids the worshipping of God by means of the image. We are not to have anything come between us and God "We are to come to him direct. Neither priest, preacher nor pope is to stand be tween us and God; neither baptism nor the Lord's Supper, nor church nor creed is to come between us and a true, sincere spirit ual worship of Ocd. God wants us to wor ship him sincerely. The leas spirituality a person has. the more form he usually wants in his religion. The religions that have the most Images and forms and parapher nalia to assist In their worship have the greatest lack of spirituality. God wants the heart of man and not merel an out side formalism. A wife wants the love and absolute devo tion of her husband. That man Is a fool who thinks ha can satisfy his wife ty simply providing her a home, treating her re spectably, furnishing her clothes and food and go through the forms of devotion while at the same time she knows that he is lov ing another. Neither is God satisfied with a worshipful form without the heart and the spirit. . Israel had the greatest system of sacrifices the world has ever known, but God reprimanded them on many occasions and scorned their sacrifices when he knew their hearts were not in them. This com mandment therefore calls first of ail for a pure, sincere spiritual worship. Here is a threefold statement as to the connection between a true worship of God and its effect upon man. Man naturally De comes like the object he worshlpa God Is jealous for the good of man Just as a good father Is Jealous of the character and wel fare of his children. God desires that we should become like him. Therefore He calls upon us to worship him and not an image, for if we become like the thing we worship', what & horrible thing idolaters must become. Fling at Christian Science. A Christian Science friend said that she understood the verse which I quoted last Sunday night to refer to God. It Is placed right alongside of the words of Shakespeare and Jsus Christ on the fly Ifaf of "Science and Health." and being without any com ment, anyone would suppose It was quoted with approval Just the same as the other two quotations are. Let me remind you of the verse again: "I. I, LI ltsef, I The Inside and outside, the what and the why. The when and the where, tns low and the high. All L L I. I Itself. I. If this verse refers to God. it calls him "it." and there are other quotations from "Science and Health" that would tend to show that Ood is looked upon as "eternal principle. life, truth and love." If God can be referred to as "it." then our Christian Science friends must be worshipping an eternal "it," a sort of neuter God. If they don't look out they are liable to become a lot of "its." But God is not only anxious that we should like him. He reminds us also that the law of heredity plays its part in the future of man. The iniquities of the fathers are visited upon the children unto the toird and fourth generation of them that hate Him- You will see that evil runs out of a family by the third or fourth generation or else It runs the family out. The good that men do Is visited through God's mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love him and keep his commandments. Man can make his choice. He Is not bound by heredity nor circumstances. The children of Israel and Aaron declared the golden calf was automatio. They threw their jewelry Into the fire and out came the calf. Matthew Henry says, "Sin is a brat that nobody wants to own." But everyone must bear his own responsibility1 in his choice of a God to worship and the character he makes for himself. Everyone can be the master of circumstances and by the grace of God he may be born again and enter Into a new heredity that will make It pos sible for him to be fully restored to the Image of God. EXPLAINS JONAH'S PLIGHT CAPTAIX JOBS EU IDENTIFIES FISH THAT EXGUXFED HIM. It Was a Bone Shark, He Says, and Not a Whale That Swallowed the Prophet. That It waa a -bone shark which swal lowed Jonah. of Old Testament fame. Is the belief of Captain John Ell, who spoke at the Y. M. C. A. men's meeting: yester day afternoon, giving those present the benefit of his life on the sea. He said that at the time the Scriptures were translated, the bone shark was classed as a whale. The only miracle recorded, he said, is that Jonah waa able to live three days and nights inside the fish. The speaker said that Dr. Lyman Ab bott and the higher critics who discredit the whale story must also discredit the resurrection of Christ, because the latter said to his diaclplee, "As Jonah was three days and nights in the whale's belly, so shall the Son of Man be three days and three nights In the heart of the earth." The "old salt" was dressed In typical sailor's garb, and had on the platform a shark's jaw. and the lower jaw of a young sperm whale.

Kramer, Hotel Nortonia, City. teeth of most sharks would render it im possible for a man to be swallowed with out being mangled. - - The captain spoke of the power of the breakers in case a ship ventures too close to the shore, eaid Jonah's "whale" was probably in an ugly mood because of the load he was carrying, and was ca6t up on the beach. The speaker also called attention to a fact sometimes brought to the notice of passengers on seagoing ves sels, that sharks taken from the water and exposed to the warm air always dis gorge. "There are no sperm whales in the Mediterranean Sea," said the speaker. It was not a sperm whale that swallowed Jonah; it was a bone shark. We some times capture a bone shark 50 feet long, while fossils of this fish hava been found which were 60 feet long. I have heard that as much as 18 barrels of oil have been tuken from the liver of a bone shark. His mouth is large enough to swallow tfiel biggest New York City Alderman in fact. It, would be a miracle If a man thrown in the mouth of a bone shark was not taken In out of the wet. "Of all the things that whale ever tack led, the backsliding preacher was the worst. Although naturally a scavenger of the deep, the 'great fish' couldn't keep the preacher down. He tried It for three days." Captain Eli told several Interesting sea stories, afterward throwing the meeting open for questions. Dedicate X'ew Structure. EUGENE. Or., Oct. 18. (Special.)

Some persons would not believe that a man could suffer from coffee drink ing so severely as to cause spells of unconsciousness. And to find complete relief in changing from coffee to Post um is well worth recording. "I used to be a great coffee drinker, so much so that it was killing me by Inches. My heart became so weak I would fall and lie unconscious for an hour at a time. The spells caught me sometimes two or three times a day. "My friends, and even the doctor, told me It was drinking coffee that caused the trouble. I would not be lieve it, and still drank coffee until I could not leave my room. "Then my doctor, who drinks Postum himself, persuaded me to stop coffee and try Postum. After much hesita tion, I concluded to try it. That was eight months ago. Since then I have had but few of those spells, none for more than four months. "I feel better, sleep better and am better every way. I now drink nothing but Postum and touch no coffee, and as I am seventy years of age all my' friends think the Improvement quite remarkable." "There's a Reason."
