D GODIY LIFE
Every Genuine Existence
Has Two Characteristics,
. Essence and Form.
FORCEFUL SERMON BY
REV WILLIAM FOULKES
. 1 "
Kansas Minister Blake an Earnest
Ilea for Increased Spirituality and
Power In the Inner Life of All
Christians.
. Having a form of godliness, but
; denying the power thereof;" the Becond
- Epistle of Paul the Apostle to Timothy,
In en eloquent and forceful sermon
- from the foregoing text. Rev. William
oulkea. D. pastor of , the Grand
' View Park Presbyterian church, of Kan
aas City, Kansas and father of the
Rev. William ; Hiram Foulkes. of this
elty, made an earnest plea for Increased
' spirituality and power In the Inner lite
' of christians, at the First Presbyterian
. ehnrch yesterday morning, saying in
part: ,.'.'..-'
. ,. Iwe CharaeterUtlos.
.' "Rtr renulne existence - has two
characteristics, essence ana form,, sub
stance and qualities,- an Inner reality of
mind and aa external manifestation;
Godliness possesses these two charac
teristics. A . codly life Is Inseparable
from certain manifestations which re
veal Its existence, external . Matures
.which distinguish It from everything
else; devotion In prayer, in observance
of sacred rites, in obedience to the
law of God and uprightness of conduct.'
- While not disparaging or depreciating
the outward forms or religion in any
way, Mr. - Foulkes deplored - the fact
that too many christians are satisfied
-with the mre observance of sacred
rltaa and devotional exercises. -
"They must have churches, preach
ing. Sabbath schooiarslnglng and pray
in and taking ud collections," oontin
- tied the speaker. ."The minister does
7 the preaching and ' praying ; and i he Is
paid for It, They put form' before the
' power. The question is not how to
mmIim 1n fullar mMIurt the : life
and energy of the spirit' of dod, but
how to keep things in gocrf condition
externally. They do not labor for .con
version of men. ' ,"
"Although there is great -danger men
acing the cnurcn in tins jassuuoe, lor-
tuna tely -all - chrlaUans-re not xif this
lasa: if thev were there would not be
another soul converted to . the end of
time. The mere formalist will never
save a soul, from death. The blessings
r needed are not inherent In forms; hence
to trust in forms is to go wiuiout ins
blessings. . ,(;.-;,)

"Depending upon the forms of re

than Into wax figures. While the ex
istence of forms Is no argument' against
religion thev must he made more than

godliness. The great need is a new
and fuller endowment of the Jlfe and
power of religion. y i
"Human power alone Is wonderful
as manifested I if science; but wonder
ful as Is the power of man, it Is not
the power of godliness. 1 Human might
and skill may subdue kingdoms, but
cannot control human hearts and lives.
Those who have too little power are
those who lose much of what they re

" "We are In the world, and when we

THEnCI OF GOOD ONLY
Ber. Corby Emphasizes the FWrer of
Noble Thought Throughout Life.
In the course of his expository sermon
on Paul's letter to the Phillipians st
tne universalis! Church of the Good
Tidings Rev. 3. D. Corby said: -
"The apostle brings his letter to a
Close with the high exhortation: 'What
soever thlnrs are true, honorable. limt
pure, lovely, of. good report, virtuous,
worthy of praise, think on these things.1
We are to live on great principles and
for great enda. Life has high capaci
ties, wny grovei in. tne dust When
you csn mount up with wings aa an
eagle. Paul emphasises the power of
noble thoughts. Newspapers declare that
righteous acts are not news. So It Is
refreshina to find the records of unself-
riah inva for humanity and heroism on
tha Columbia aiven place amid the
stories of crime and meanness In recent
laatiAB. . .. .. .
"Think what it would mean, if in
stead of the suggestions to evil, the
newspapers would focus attention an
the many acts of noble virtuous living.
If with all the skill they possess, the
fine ataff of writers a-ave the multitude

life at its best - One of the magasmes
devotes one number each year to the
recital of the advance around the world
of the work for human betterment and
fitly terms It the 'Uplift number.'
"It Is good for us to think on these
things. Study them, look out for them,
learn to recognise them, to know their
worth and follow them lovingly through
all their manifestations. Since it en

"Why. all the men and women who have
rone to hell were very rellrious. They
were long on religion but short on sal
vation.
"Friends, there Is a vast difference
between religion and salvation. The
devil does not oppose religion. He Is
a very religious person himself. I have
salvation an! that is what every man
ana woman must nave wno is saved.
Reliarlon never saved any man."
. After scoring the Tongues of Fire and
calling attention to the fact that white
men and women are lea ny tneir xne
eyed negro leader," Boss then pro
ceeded to grill the secret societies.
"I am not railing at the secret so
cieties,", he said. "They represent the
religion of the member but not their
salvation any more than does the re
ligion of the worshippers of idols.
"There ' are plenty of religious people
in tnis city dui wnen you come to iook
for people who have salvation you find
It a hard lob." The sneaker pointed out
that Ban irrancisco was tne most re-
llarious place on earth, but he said It
became so corrupt that Ood Alralchty
destroyed it. - - in conclusion ne de
clared: "Friends, religion won't help a
man; nothing abort or salvation will do
that. A religious man Is nothing mors
than an enlightened heathen until the
Holy Ghost brings salvation to bim and
! clvlluea nun."
