‘'ERA OF EVANGELISM”
SUBJECT OF DR. W. E. M’LEOD'S
SERMON YESTERDAY MORNING
coteo
FOR EVANGELIZATION.
REV. ROBT. BRUCE SMITH URGES
STATE MOVEMENT.
Declares That the State Miss on
Board Is More Important Than the
Meeting cf the State Legislature—
It Means More for the State.
State Evangelization was the sub-
ject of the sermon preached Sunday
morning in the First Baptist church
by the pastor, Robert Bruce Smith,
D. D., from the text found in John
4: 35 “tjft up your eyes and look on
the fields; for they are white already
to harvest.” Sunday was "State
Mission Day” in the Baptist church.
The Baptists of Texas are raising
$ 1 (10,000 for state missions. They are
supporting some 300 missionaries in
various parts of the state. The year
closes with the last of this month.
So on Sunday Dr. Smith preached on
a subject appropriate for the occasion
and took up the church's annual of-
ferings.
The sermon was in part as follows:
"Apathy, indifference and opposi-
tion to missions of any kind are eating
at the very heart of the life of many
of our churches. There are those
who feel the same way about mis-
sions whether state, home or foreign.
Many have absolutely no interest in
the extension of the Master's king-
dom whether at home or abroad.
Others are openly hostile. They feel [ may become more Chrlstlike.
t n A no A UMl t * l \ A lit I k A 1 ft/m 1 /.IiiiiimI.
These are the best expressions of
patriotism.
Wien we plead for state evangeliza-
tion we plead for the highest form of
patriotism. No more patriotic work
can be done than the proclamation
of the gospel which makes for the
regeneration of the individual citi-
zens of tlie country, that which puri-
fies the heart of tiie nation. It is
a high type of patriotism which sup-
ports our public school system be-
cause it prepares men and women
or a better and more Intelligent citi-
zenship. This is for the good of the
state, but IJ^Js not to be compared
with state evangelization.
The meeting of the state mission
board is more important than the
meeting- of the state legislature. It
means more for the state. Christian-
ity gives us such men as President
Roosevelt, W. .1. Bryan, the idol of
our country. Governor Folk of Mis-
souri, Mayor Weaver of Philadelphia
and Hughes of New York, ail of them
active members of church. These
men stand for honor, peace and pros-
perity as opposed to graft' and dis-
honor. Why do the great railroad
corporations take so lively an inter-
est. in the establishment of the Y. M.
C. A. work throughout the country?
It is because the influence of the
gospel of Jesus Christ makes for a
better manhood and for the saletv
of property and of human life. Much
is said about the menace of the for-
eign immigration with . foreign re-
ligions, foreign ideas, and anarchy,
socialism and lawlessness. State
evangelization seeks their regeneration
and transformation into good citizen-
ship. Patriotism, therefore, of the
highest type will seek the evangeliza-
tion of our state, that the citizenship
"More Heart .in Religion, More Feel-
ing Upon Questions of Righteous-
ness is the Great Need of Society
Today.”
the same way about the local church.
Some have no interest in building new
churches or in the maintenance of
the ministry. Others are openly hos-
tile, One of our citizens recently ex-
pressed the wish !or the ability to de-
stroy all of the churches from the : ty,e j,eat
face of the earth. But we need not
fear this open hostility half so much
as the apathy and Indifference of our
people. Our people need to be arous-
ed to a lively interest and responsi-
bility in the spread of Christ's king-
dom on the earth. . Let them listen
once more to the Master’s words:
"Lilt up your eyes and look on the
fields.”
Suppose we limit these words to
the state anti appeal for state evan-
gelization. There are many reasons
which might be advanced for state
evangelization, hut I shall empahslze
at least three most fundamental rea-
sons at this time.
First. Patriotism, or love of state
demands evangelization. There are
many persons who feel little or no
interest in the churches or in Chris-
tianity as such, hut who feel very
keenly the love of state and native
land. They boast of their patriotism.
To such I appeal with all my soul.
Patriotism demands the evangeilza-. „ _ .... ... .
tion of our state. Patriotism of the !
highest type will seek to foster any-
thing'which makes for the peace and
happiness of our country. There can
he no gainsaying the claim that the
gospel of Jesus Christ makes for the
purity and righteousness of our citi-
zens. It roots' out and destroys vice
and sin.
Second. Denomination loyalty de i
mands state evangelization. Politi-
cal organizations raise immense sums
of money for campaign purposes, for
the propagation and support of the
principles which they hold to he for
interests of their country.
They do not say that it makes no
difference what a man believes so
long as lie is a member ot some politi-
cal party, that there is good in all
political parties. And they are right.
Political loyalty and political honesty
demand political support. It is just
the same with denominational loyalty
and honesty.
As Baptists we have great cardi-
nal principles and doctrines for which
we have stood as a denomination from
the beginning. Those are not going
to b? preached unless Baptists preach
them. Other denominations teach
some of them, hut no other denomina-
tion teaches all of them. We believe
that Baptists must he nearer the
truth as a whole than any other body
of people. Believing this we ought,
"with malice toward none and good
will toward all," to preach our faith
every where and lo support our state
mission work to the utmost of our
ability. State missions foster all of
And state
evangelization affords a magnificent
opportunity for a united and beautiful
fellowship of service. We might en-
large at length on these two thoughts
Third. The Christ., spirit demands
slate evangelization. Christ had a
passion for lost souls everywhere. We

worth more than standing armies for
the protection of home, life and prop-
erty.
No more patriotic work can be un-
dertaken than that which makes for
the virtue ami happiness of our citi-
zens. The best patriot is the man
who does roost for the promotion of
the purity and intelligence of our
rtM/eaship, who makes it easier to
do right and harder to do wrong.
This is the work of state missions.
That is a poor expression of patriot-
ism which spends Itself in making
noise whether in martial music, politi-
cal oratory or in blank cartridges.
Many instances may he recited of genu-
ine patriotism as shown on fields of
hattie. Many men are ready to face
death on the battle field who fail in
the moral battles of our country.

heart of Christianity is missionary,
mfist lie missionary. In state evan-
gelization we are finding our brethern
and bringing them to Christ. The
Saviour said to His disciple, “Ye shall
he witness of me.”
State missions seek to carry the
gospel of salvation to all the desti-
tute parts of our great state. Our
missionaries are preaching in nearly
1.000 places where the gospel would
not he preached without our organ-
ized work. Under their ministry be-
tween five and ten thousand Slave
been brought to a saving knowledge
o( the truth in Jesus during the pres-
ent year and nearly two hundred
churches have been constituted. Who.
with the love of Jesus in his heart,
can he content to have no part nor
share in this glorious work of bring-
ing this great state to Christ?
Patriotism demands state evangel-
ization, denominational loyalty de-
mands it, but above all the Christ
spirit and the love for lost souls de-
mand it. This Is the main thing,
the salvation of lost men. Every one
of us by his gifts may help to carry
the gospel to every part of this great
state.

“The Era of Evangelism." was the
subject of the sermon preached yes-
terday morning before a large can-
gregation in the First Presbyterian
church by Rev. Dr. McLeod. His text
was from II Tim., 4:5; “Do the work
of an evangelist.” In the course of
his sermon he said:
According to the Apostle Paul, the
evangelist has his place alongside
with the apostle, the prophet, the pas-
tor and the teacher. In the New Tes-
tament we have two kinds of evan-
gelism. First, where a few men lead
in great popular revivals, like Pen-
tecost, or that of Samaria; and sec-
ond. personal, every-day evangelism.
Evangelism is right in line with the
great commission: “Go ye into all
the world and preach the gospel to
every creature. ‘ When Paul was con-
verted lie became an evangelist, a re-
vivalist. He went from city to city
nnd from town to town and held pro-
tracted meetings. Men and women
were converted and organized church-
es, and thus Christianity reached out
over the empire and across the centu-
ries. We might as well argue against
Christianity as to argue against re-
vivals. Christ told His disciples not
to attempt to give His religion to the
world until they had received power,
and when the power came there was
a great revival. A revival is simply
■tn outward manifestation of the Spir-
it’s presence in convicling and saving
power. "O Lord, revive thy work,"
is as truly the prayer of good people
today as it was of tlie prophet of old.
As the Christian church had Us birth
in life revival of Pentecost, so every
great denomination lias had its ori-
gin in the throes of a mighty spiritual
awakening. The truth is, every great
movement in the history of men, every
reform, every uprising of patriotism,
has simply been a crystaliaation of
certain great passions of the soul. Thev
did not come out of the brfiln of some
cold and bloodless philosopher, or is-
sue from the intellect of some frigid-
souled scholar, but from the heart of
some Jesus, or some Luther, or some
Wesley, or some Moody, who was
touched with the feeling of human in-
firmity and a sorrow for human sin.
If we had more feeling on these things
in El Paso, and in Texas, there would
be less he!l-l>roth brewing in the po-
litical pot, Idss deference to dema-
gogues, less consideration for law-
breakers of every sort, big and little.
More heart in religion, more feeling
upon questions of righteousness, is
the great need of society today. The
tide is slowly, hut surely, turning in
this direction. Since tlie days of
Moody and Sankey the evangelistic
spirit has been spreading In this coun-
try. Northfleld and Winona Lake are
the offspring of Moody’s revival work,
and they stand today the champion
of a world wide evangelism. Through
the Influence of these large centers of
Bible study, the destructive "Higher
critic" has been silenced and routed.
Now, because the church is honoring
the Bible, God is rewarding the
church with countless conversions.
Few realize that they are living in the
most progressive religious ertf the
world lias ever known The work of
grace under such men us General
Booth, Gipsy Smith, Evan Roberts,
John McNeil, and others in the old
world is being duplicated by scores of
leading evangelists in 1hls country,
Sam Jones, who has just gone to his
reward, was known far and wide as
a successful winner of souls. Only the
judgment can reveal the enormous
amount of good tills man accomplish-
ed, and we shall greatly miss him.
.But many wlip are not so well known
are meeting with etpial success. As
a result, we notice a more respectful
attitude everywhere towards the re-
ligion of Christ.
martyrdom are the price of progress.
This theory is neither new nor true.
This is not an inch beyond the Pharl-
seetsm of His day. "For a good work
we stone thee not, but itecauae being
man thou seekest to make thyself
equal with God." If He is a man,
match him; If he was a product of
evolution, why no more of the same
species? Again current opinion offers
us .the theory of a "literary product"
to account for Jesus of ‘ Nazareth.
This only makes Matthew and Luke
divine rather than Jesus. Even Theo-
dore Parker, the freethinker, has said,
It would take a Christ to forge a
Christ.”
Current opinion says again, that He
was ihe product of the peculiar con-
ditions of His age. He Boated Into
prominence upon the tide of popular
opinion and popular expectation. That
there was such expectation, we do not
deny, but the thing expected and the
thing which happened were so con-
trary as to produce antagonism to
the death. Therefore, we dismiss
such a notion without serious consid-
eration, as It only makes our Lord
a kind of a pious fraud.
With none ot these our laird would
he satisfied. "His personality, as the
Christ, .the son of God. is the only
thing that stands enduring amid the
ever-changing phases of thought to-
day, and He deals with us as with
Thomas of old and is satisfied only
when he hears the confession, "My
Lord and my God."
What are the proofs that we are
to offer to men of today? Prophesies,
miraciesj inspiration of the hook arc
as convincing as ever to the man
who gives them sufficient study. But
to tiie busy man of the street, who
has little time to give .to our elabo-
rate system of evidences I would offer
three things. First, the personality
of Christ, as the one of whom Moses
wrote, as tile Son of Man, as the Mes-
siah, as the Son of God, as the Bread
of Life, as the Light of the World,
as the Shepherd, as the Way, the
Truth and the Life. Second, I would
offer His teachings. Charles Lamb
and some literary friends were amus-
ing themselves, as Ha/Jett tells us,
by imagining how they would hoi if
some of the great kings of literature
who were dead would suddenly ap-
pear before them. "If Shakespeare
should come among tis wo would all
rise; if Jesus should appear we should
all kneel,” and no one denied that,
it would he the inevitable posture
before the Master of our soul and
destiny. While He never wrote a
line, He is the inspirer of all that
is noble, His teachings today per-
meate and dominate the world of
thought, feeling and action. Finally,
tiie church stands as one of the
mighty proofs of our Lord's claim to
divinity. When one efiters St. Paul’s
cathedral, London, lie sees a plate
with the inscription, "(jfivristopher
Wren." Look a round and you will
see his monument. The church. Chris-
tianity and civilization are the proofs
of our Lord’s divine power. Leck.t
was rig.it when he said. "That the
record of three short years lias done
mere to soften humanity than all the
desquisitions of philosophers." What
think ye of Christ? Do you believe
Him? Do you trust Him? if not.
why not? Have you anything against
Him?
THIRD TKADGEY VICTIM
BEN LUJAN’S BARTENDER GOES
INSANE FROM DRINK.
Since Day of Finding of Dead Body
of Lujan’s Wife and the Locking
Up of Lujan for Murder, Manuel
Vinquer* Has Not Drawn a Sober
Breath.
A third in the strange fatality
which claimed Mrs. Benjamin Lujan
in death, placed her-husband. Ben-
jamin Lujan in the county jail, a rav-
ing maniac, charged with her murder,
has been claimed a victim and Manuel
Munquera is locked in the city jail
a jibl>«rlng lunatic. The cause of
his insanity is declared by his friends
to have been drink.
Manquera was day bartender for
Benjamin Lujan, it was he who
closed the saloon on South Stanton
street and accompanied the police to
the room of his employer only a few
doors further up the street to the
room where the woman was found
with the ghastly wounds In her breast,
it was he who later at the city jail
told the officers who Lujan, arrested
for drunkenness and docketed as
"John Doe," was.
On that day Manquera got drunk,
and. his friends declare, has not
drawn a sober breath since the mo-
ment that he found that ilia employer
and best friend was in jail charged
with the murder of Ills wife
Day by day It was drink, drink,
drink, until he lost all consciousness
and all sorrow and all remorse—now

and forth and gibbet’s about Ben and
Ben’s wife—-of the awful tragedy that
separated them
For days after the tragedy Man-
quera is said to never have gone
homo. Drink was Ills only thought.
When drinking he never raised the
slightest disturbance and was eter-
nally quiet, immersed, seemingly,
with ids thoughts. After a time the
drink began to tell upon him physi-
cally. He is but. a shadow of his
former self. As far hack as a week
yesteiday his brain began to wander
and his friends am! family begun to
become uneasy. Not until Saturday,
however, dhj he become violent and
Saturday night he was arrested and
locked up on complaint of his family.
Officer Parmer arrested Manquera
and the latter went willingly with the
officer on being promised that lie
would he allowed to see Ben.

Before a large audience at the First
Christian church last* evening the
Rev. E. M. Wiaits delivered a dis-
course on "Current Opinion ami Eter-
nal Truth.” His text was taken fisom
Mat.. 18-13:20, ' Whom do you say
that I am?" He spoke in part as fol-
lows: 1
Jesus Christ is the problem of the
ages. Whatever else may be denied
concerning Him it cannot be doubted
that He caused the people of His
time to think and talk, an 1 they have
been thinking and talking ever since.
Right thinking along this line is or-
thodoxy, wrong thnking is hetero-
doxy.
Jesus was a very pubic man and
the penalty of prominence is to he
much talked about. When He asked
His disciples this question it was not
either as one needing to he informed i
or as a sensitive man morbidly con ;
cerned about the opnlons of others; I
hut to commit them to the higher I
truth of Hi» messiaahip. In reply |
various opinions were current, but j
Jesus was satisfied with none of them,
He wanted to draw out just the thing j
which Peter said, “Thou an the Christ t
the Son of the Living God."
| Today men give various answers to j
| this question. There are those who j
| tell us that Christ is only a man. the !
purest, the highest, the noblest of j
