CESTOVED BY GOD
Dr. Luther Dyott Preaches Ser
mon on "Riches' of Child of
God" to llarge Congregation
1 at Sunday Services.
"The Riches of a Child of Go" was
the title of the sermon delivered' yes
tPrday morning, at the "First Congre
gational chunch by Reverend Luthur R.
Dyott, pastor of the church. Dr. Dyott
took his text from Ephesians, 3:8-10.
The text and the sermon In "brief, were
as follows: , V v -:, ;'-' .fH
" 'Unto me who am less than the least
of all saints, was this grace given to
preach unto the Gentiles the unsearch
able riches of Christ; and to make all
men see "what Is the dispensation of the
mystery which for ages' hath been hid
In God Who. cheated all things:' to the
Intent that now unto principalities and
powers in . the . heavenly places -might
be made known through the church the
manifold'. Wisdom of God.' Epheslans
8:8-10. 'j i;-; he .
"In this text , Paul . speaks of ' per
sons, and places, and things In relation
to life as it is, ajid as it ought to be.
Here he speaks of himself, of the" saints,
of, the Gentiles, of principalities and
powers (by three he means different
orders of spirUtual Intelligences), and
then, above all other persons, and en-
richlng all others, who are willing; to
be made rich, he speaks of Christ and
God.-..'-. :n . .
"Then he mentions ', Jn connection
with-these persons all created things,
and the chunch on earth, and then he
speaks of heaven. Grace, the unsearch
able riches of Christ, mystery and the
manifold Wisdom of God are here men
tioned. It is difficult to see how a man
could say more In a few words than Paul
says In our text The centra thought
of it Ril sterns to be ' the riches of a
child of God. -
Merit and Humility Together.
"Now a man Is essentially rich In that
which -he la. 4f rich at all. rather than
in that which he has; and, as 'a rule,
merit and humility go together. Paul de
clares himself to be less than the least
of all saints.
"We do not care to hear a man say
very much about himself even though
he may speak in terms of self deprecia
tion. If self praise be half scandal,
then self blame or self depreciation can
be little more. Such things have nothing
to do with humility which enriches and
adorns . the souls of some persons.
Humility means that we neither over
estimate ourselves nor underestimate
ourselves, but placing a Just estimate
upon ' life - enriched of God, we know
ourselves as we are, and In that knowl
edge we make the estimate. ,
Blob. With JUttls Goods.
"A man can be rich even though
he may have llttl, of this grid's goods.
He can be rich because of hi libera
tion from provincialism and religious
prejudices. Paul, a Jew, was preaching
to the Gentiles, and was telling them
about the Christian- religion. His cos
mopolitan' views, with reference to relig
ion showed that his mind 'and ' soul
were not poor. ,.- ' . . "
"Religious limitations and prejudices,
biased, views and sectarian Berylllty Im
poverish the souls of men. No body cf
religious believers can corner truth, and
men and women enrich "themselves In
the' inner' life as": they .welcome tfuth
from any sourceand through any chan
nel. ; But " t the .same time, there
should be loyalty to the highest,' even
Jesus, ; Christ with his unsearchable
riches,.:, must command the loyalty of
the Christian, and we sl.olud not con
clude that we have had an exhaustive
and final revelation of religion and the
mind of God. Neither should Inevitable
mystery baffle or discourage us as we
seek to Increase the riches of religious
knowledge,,- '" . v
Ood Has Plan.
"God has a plan reaching through the
ages. His, church on earth and the an
gels In heaven can find no greater honor
and privilege than they have In co
operating with God, as the mystery
gradually decreases amid Increasing
light upon the plan of God. ' - v :
"The material realm has its place In
this plan, and material things find their
highest value and real meaning; In their
subsidiary gelation - to - those things
which :, are more than material. This
view will give us light upon material
riches, and the accumulation of mate
rial possessions. The ability to make
money is frivsn to a man. The K if t it
self is from (lod. It is a talent, Just
as certainly ss any other unusunl en
dowment is a talent.
' r -Should Va Talent.
"If God bestows upon any man the
talent to make, money it is a sin for
him not to use that talent. He is re
sponsible for the failure to use It But.
on the other hand. If a man has the
talent to make money, and uses it sin
fully, or having accumulated money, re
fuses to place it at the disposal of God's
cause, which is the cause of humanity,
let that man know that his riches will
impoverish his soul, that he must some
day leave his material possessions on
earth and answer, to God for what he
should have done with his wealth. Hon
est accumulation, , even of material
things, Is praiseworthy. A wise and
generous dispensation of money is one
of the most necessary things in estab
lishing the "kingdom of heaven on earth.
Again, If one man hasmore than an
other In this world let him not allow
his riches to spoil him, and he should
not try to make distinctions where God
has made none. The rich have no right
to be proud and clannish. The poor
should never be bitter and envious.- AH
should be. truly, rich In everything that
constitutes essential wealth of . mind,
and heart and soul," in the unsearch
able riches of Christ, which are the
qualities of his life. .
"No man is rich who can claim noth
ing; in the spiritual life and the spiritual
world. ' No man is poor who has God
for his , father, Jesus Christ for his
brother, and Is an heir, of God; and
Joint heir with' Jesus Christ
