Why Is nn eloquent man without
lovo like n brass band with cymbal
accompaniments?
Will cloquonco without lovo make
n man acceptable to Qod?
Will cloquenco without love make
a man ncccptnblo to his follows or
give any lasting satisfaction to htm-
Verse 2 Is there any necessary
moral prnlso duo to n man who has
tho gift of prophecy and haB Intultivo
knowcdgc of mystery,
Is there nny moro necessary prnlao
to bo accorded to a big mnn than to
a littlo man?
If God gives a mnn tho faith so
ho can romovo a mountain and ho
nt tho sntno tlnio Is without love,
what good Is tho faith to him?
Vorso 3 Do somo pcoplo glvo lib
erally, and suffer porsonnl inconvon

If n mnn gives whon It can bo
seen, nnd does not give whon it can
not be scon, Is thoro nny lovo In his
heart, or any renl morlt in his char

JJlglon with an Impure motlvo or with

If wo really love a porson will we
ovor speak to him to his injury, no
mntter what tho provocation may be?
Whnt Is It In lovo which tends to
pntlcnco, politeness, kindness, gentle
ness nnd humility?
Mny a porson bo controlled by love
and bo envious nt tho same time, nnd

Now a solontK snys gold has n
dlst'nct odor. Ho must havo been
handed a hunch of the tnlntcd klnn.
In this i9suc wc commence a scries
of discourses under the caption, "Peo
ple's Pulpit " Tbey are strictly un
sectnrian, nnd not intended to build
up nny one denomination at the ex
pense of another. As Bccchcr and
Taimagc of the same "City of
Churches" were independent preach
ers who gave their time and strength
to the moulding of public thought,
"with charity toward nil and malice
toward none," so with Pastor Russell
of the Brooklyn Tabernacle.
Pastor Russell's only fault (if fault
it be) is Ills extreme Orthodoxy his
close adherence to the Bible as the
inspired Word of God. But after all,
if the Bible be not man's only chart
and compass as respects God and the
future, what have wc? And if this
be so perhaps it is impossible to give
too earnest heed to its teachings. On
one point Pastor Russell is quite em
phatic, namely lie insists that it is
inconsistent witli reason to believe
that all mankind, except the merest
handful of "saints," were predesti
nated by God to eternal torment in
fire, because of -ignorance or unbe
lief. Ninety-nine of us out of every
hundred reached that conclusion years ago; and it shook our faith in the Bible
considerably. Pastor Russpll, however, holds to the Bible tenaciously nnd claim
to prove that on tins point it lias been misunderstood by many of its friends as
well as by its foes. He has shown a few faulty translations, and offered pref
erable interpretations for some parables, and altogether lie has thrown a new
light on the Scriptures. His presentations of the Bible's teachings have certain
ly rescued many from unbelief.
Mr. C. T. Smith, dcccascd,who was one of the editors of the Atlanta Con
stitution, paid Pastor Russell, a most pronounced 'compliment along this lino in
the following terms: "It is impossible to read his writings without loving the
writer and pondering his wonderful solution of the great mysteries that have
troubled us all our lives. There is hardly a family to be found that has not oit
sonic loved one who died outside the Church outside the ptan of salvation, and,
if Calvinism be true, outside of all hope nnd inside of eternal torment and de
spair. He makes no assertions that arc not well sustained by the Scriptures. His
argument is built up stone by stone, nnd upon every stone is a text, and it lie
tomes a pyramid of God's love and mercy and wisdom. There is nothing in the
tliblc that the author denies or doubts, but there arc many texts upon which he
Vows a flood of light that seems to uncover its mcaniue"
