111! FLAME OI EVANOELISM

. jj-' -

-more is s. new emphasis on man- (gnarl these days. In a number of H,” in our city rid-l results have been gamed by "house to house" ev- gnge1IKII. Church members person- ,1ly carried the Gospel to people in may names. The workers were sur- prised todiacover their own abilities ma leached many whose lives. no other could have touched.

For a time some people question- .d the value of mass evangelism, but are now re-discovering the ef- fecl.lVCIIS5 of the method. One suc- wgnll series of such meetings has just been held in Toronto and an- other is being prepared for on a lame scale. Evangelists endowed mm the power of the Holy Spirit 10; this type of ministry are again coming to the fore. and are being yecognilbd as, among God's best gifts to His church.

All this raises again the question or the need of such special efforts mu the place that they fill in christian experience. People inquire -45 it not enough to teach child- re-ll the truths of the bible and train them up in the ways of God?

To this uestion a miber of en- gwars may be given.

A short time ago there was given in our morning devotions a study or the spiritual illumination of the prophet Samuel. Emphasis was laid on two points; first, on his mother's dedication of her son to God's ser- vice, and second, on God's call.

Samuel's mother, I-Iannah. had prayed for a son with the promise that. when her prayer was granted. she would "give him to the Lord all the days of his life."

she was as good as her word. In his childhood young Samuel was nursed carefully in the home, and. when still quite young was taken to the house or the I.ord in Shiloh. There he grew up amid the nation's services of worship, and was taught and trained in the ways and work of God. But Samuel did not become . prophet of the In" until Clod called him personally.

The story in I Samuel 3 is one of the most significant in the Bible. The young lad was sleeping in the sitcrecl place when a voice called in the night, "Sam el." He thought that his master, E . had called him. but Ell said not. and sent him back to bed. After the second and third call. the old priest perceived that God had called the child. and told him to answer the next call with the words: " ak Lord. for Thy servant hears." amuel did so, and received a manage for Eli and his family. Communications were open- ed in this way between Samuel and his God. and soon it was recognized widely that Samuel wa: established as a prophet of the Lord.

The point of the story is that the teaching and training given by the religious leaders cf'thc time were not enough for the full development of Samuel's powers; he needed in addition personal contact 'i"il.-I1 God.

In our churches and in many of our homes the truths of the Gos- pel are being taught faithfully and well. Experience is proving that the best instruction is not enough. One of our leaders recently reported on the results of his study of the re- ligious history of famiiiu who had moved from rural churchm into the

happened that their children. and

more decidedly their children's children, ew indifferent. drifted away fro the church and gave up

religious observancea and duties ai- together. The reason was the the teaching they had received h. not .-ulmlnated in a. personal experience of God's saving grace. ' O O O

The story c-i Charles H. Blfurgeon is typical. It is familiar to many. but let us be reminded of it. He had been brought up in I. Cnristian at- mosphere. He knew tnat his fa... rs had discovered uod for themselves. But he could not find God for him- self. After months of vain effort in that direction he fell into deep depression. One Sunday morning he drifted Into a little Methodist cha- pel in that mood. An old preacher tried to preach a. sermon on the text: "Look unto me, and be ye saved", and broke down in the mid- die of it. Then looking at the youth in the back seat. misery in his coun- tenance. he said: "Young man, you are in trouble." "Then", said spur- geon. '"he shouted. as only a prim- itive Methodist could shout: 'I.ookl I4ookl' And I looked and lived."

Out of that experience of God's saving grace therev arose one of the greatest preachers of all time. .

Instruction needs to he followed by the vision of God. or rather, it should issue in the vision of God. when religious teaching falls short of this result, the instructed often wander away from religion alto- gether. Hence the need of special effort to bring our young people to a definite commitment of their lives to Christ and to the life in Him.

It is a law of spiritual effort. that it should reach a climax in a spe- cial outpouring of God's grace. For years the Gospel is pres ' ". be- lievers are instructed in the truth and laws of God and enlisted in His service, the church organized and interested in Christ's cause at home and abroad. Then suddenly a divine fire is kindled in some indiv- idual, it flashes from soul to soul. and sweeps the movement up to heights never believed attainable by those associated with it in i early stages. Sometimes this brea out spontaneously, as with the Wales revival in the first decade of this century. Sometimes it is the effect of magnetic leadership as with the preaching of the great evanlemtl or other days.

A short time ago we were talkina to some young Christians who were asking eagerly about the possibility of such a movement in the church now. Foundation-laying has goneibn for years. but that work was under- ground and by the world unseen. Now they are looking. for the com- pleting ofthe building for all men- kind to see, and for as many as will to enter. There 8 need '..bf it in every congregation to bring the pa- tlent work of years to its full con- sumptlon.

As we used to sing in other days: "Mercy dmps round us are falling. but for the showers we plead."

I-IALLAM. limgland - (GP) - Councillors in this Derbyshire town saved money for the taxpayers by building a 22-yard fence them- selves. After a day's text-book study they sank 72 posts and strung 660 yards of wire around a new recrea- tion, ground. saving an estimated 270.
