By William T. Ellis. There is = such a thin gE as being | | "too religious." Even a community, like an individual, .may develop this Tault. «The greatest authority on | Christianity that ever lived, the! Apostle Paul, criticised Athens as | being "too religious" (R. V.) When épiritual subtleties' and theologizal | niceties and barren speculation take the place of simple faith and holy | living, then the condemnation, "too | { religious," falls, , Most of us know men of this sort: | | they do not weigh a pound in shap- | ing the opinion and life of their as- | soci they are disregarded by i normal persons in.the ordinary re- | lations of life; yet they are wrapped { up in the phrases and "spirituality." They are "too reli- | glous" because their beliefs aré not working out in applied righteousness. | Zion City, Il, is an instance of a community that is 'too religious"; for in spite of its punctilios and pie- ties, it contributes nothing to the effective Christian sentiment of the State of Illinois, | Worse yet, and a closer parallel | to the condition which Paul met in | old Athens, {s a case of a large pro- portion of our modern "intelligent- sla." They maintain a sort of intel- lectual aloofness toward all religion. Spiritual enthusiasm fis "bad form" in their eyes. They dabble in all ths current cults, from voodooism to oc- cultism, but are not deeply affected by any. Tolerance ahd indifference are almost 'synonymous words in the Vocabulary, They "pat the Lora on the head" patronizingly, and approve of Christianity as "good for the lower classes"; but for themselves, like the Athenians of old, they spend "their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear Some new thing." Their favorite altar is that dedicated to Novelty. They would rather "be up to date" than be holy. Fashion is to them a greater word than faith. In their conceited and aloof attitude ro- ward the concerns of the spirit, they are "too religious." This sort of intellectual pride and vagrant-mindedness is harder to af- fect with the Gospel than sheer pa- ga@sm, Paul found idolatrous and commercially-minded Ephesus, and even corrupt Corinth, easier to evan- gelize than "intellectual" Athens, These speculative butterflies gather no honey, carry no polen, withstand no storms. When our prophets for the new day are heard they will be found to have Savonarola indict- ments for the shallow and barren sophistry of our "cultivated people" who are "too religious" for everyday Christian faith and practice. tes; Sn Brains and Religion. Make no mistake here; real intel- lectual power is as diffe ent from this supercilious complacency of the intellectuals" as the ocean is from a painted bit of stage scenery. These Athenians who treated Paul contemp- tuously were the "shoddy aristoec- racy" of an ancient intellectual cen- ter whose glory had departed. Cen- turies had passed since the golden Athens had become a self-conscious, strut- ting, parroting sort of Greenwich Village, The world's profound think- ing, surpassing that of on earlier and more glorious Athens, was done by this very man Paul, whom Athens de- spised, and by the Church Fathers who followed him. To hear a cheap and noisy infidel prate from a soap box. on the street corner, one would never know that Christianity had captured and revivi- fied the brains of the Graeco-Roman world. Profound and subtle think- ing, such as puts to blush even the best intelligence of our own day, was done by the giants of the Earty Church. ' Vigorous discussions of the most difficult su"jects was prevalent among the ChristAans of the sub-apos- tolic age.

The Gentlemen Preacher. No mature Christian is ever a boor, Bad manners disappear as Christ's Spirit rules a life, The real graces of culture accompany the grace of God. Fashions forms may be learn- ed by rote, and displayed by coarse and cruel © spirits; but the gentle heart is the only source of true gen- tility, Good people unconsciously make up the only genuine "good so- ciety." Paul was a gentleman as well as a soldier-saint. His conduct as well as his letters betray his gra- ciousness. His zeal never extinguish- ed his courtesy; though his courtesy never emasculated his courage. So when Paul came to Athens he established a point of contact, The great statesman of Christianity, by the way, is a perfect type of the good diplomat, possessed of both suavity and strength consideration and con- | victions. As he had presented Christ to the Jews as a fulfillment of their faith, so he offered Him to the Greeks as the satisfaction of their yearnings. They were "prospecting for a faith"; lie cried "Eureka!" Like the good missionary that he was, he did not attack existing beliefs; he offered a religion fuller and more comprehen- alve and satisfactory, which is also the way of modern missionaries, Sit- ing on the floor of a village inn, sur- rounded by natives, I have heard a young American missionary quoting the Japanese classics, as he led up to a presentation of Christ, quite as Paul quoted the Greek poets on Mars' Hill. They found eommon ground on which to stand before they at- tempted to advance into the new ana better country. ---- Religion in the Market Place. In every community there are quiet, strong men and women who are concerned for the common wel- fare. They watch the tendencies of the times and measure them hy the standards of history and religion. These are the real leaders, the deter- miners of public opinion. No surer test of the calibre of a person can be applied than this one of solicitude por public weal, Little souls live for little goals; the engrossment of the moment satisfies them. But the great care greatly for the well-being of all mankind. Of course, Paul was of this sort. Athens was a mere wWay- stati on his programme, yet while he waited there for his companiofs, in order to resume his journey, "his spirit was stirred ih him, when he saw the city wholly given to idol- atry." Are we also of this mould? We worry about work and wages and taxes; but do we worry about the way the world wags? There is never a vacation from the practice of religion. Itinerant negro preachers sometimes say, when a month has five Sundays and there is no regular appointment for the fifth, that this is "'the preacher's Sunday," SOENE OUTIDE DUB Parliament met tish proposals: Great intesest make the decision, a number of them having heen rel tions, while others had been "on the run" for mon icles upon religious problems, be- | editors know that the sub- | is of profoundest interest to the | best | western | ecstacies of | grossed with questions of the Chris- at religion, but | | | : : Ag | A special train containing 'made 'which is starting a tour of Can | Premier*eighen at Montreal. | will tour France, with a view {the two countries.

Paul, who {sorely needed a holiday, might have | said, at Athens, "This is my chance [for a holiday)and a bit of sight-see- ling. Now I ¢an gratify my scholarly taste for visiting the haunts of the | great, and for enjoying the city's wonders: and works of art." Be it remembered that Paul knew that in | this place, as one bas said, "the hu- {man mind had blazed forth with a {splendor it has never exhibited else- | where. In the golden age of its his- [tory Athens possessed more men of {the very highest genius than have {ever lived in any other city." We. know what Paul really did. He talked daily in the market place about Jesus Christ. For the great void in the life of Athens he offered the sufficiency of the crucified and risen Redeemer. Right into the market-place, Jike a Wall street evan- gelist, he carried his sensational Gos- pel, which ever belongs. in the busy marts of life, where men express their personality by their daily in- terest, "Bo grestsan impression did he make that certain philosophers led him before the court of the Areo- pagities, the eity council of philoso- phy, or official] board of censors, to set forth his message, There he made what we commonly call "Paul's Address on Mars' Hill," one of the loftiest philosophical presentations of religion ever uttered. Unless it is read and reread and studied, this Lesson wil} have missed its objective. Did Paul Fail on Mars' Hill? A startling and anew experience followed, Thegreates: philosopher who had ever spoken in Athens was "laughed out of court." Arrest, re- vilings, stofings, prizons, and other violent forms of persecution had be- tome fam'liar experiences to Paul. But Athens merely dismissed him with a shruj of the shoulders. The people heard him eagerly until he spoke of the resurrection: and 0 tae Greeks this doctrine was foolish- ness. It declassed the new teacher an' proved him unworthy of atten- tion, in the eyes of the trifling Atuenians, Verily, Athens, toying with all gods and loyal to none, was "tos religious."

How this good news of the resur- rection alters everything! It makes death an unfeared ficident, It abol- ishes time and nullifies pain and loss and separation, and consoli- dates in one eternal and happy unity the fellowship of Chris.'s' friends. Repudiate the resurrection and. you may have some other reli- gion, but you haven't Christianity. It is common to say that Paul's sermon on Mars' Hill was a failure. I cannot so see it. It conver'ed a veriety of persons, of whom thres arem named--Dionsius, a member of the council of the Areopagus; and Damaris, who may have been only a woman of the street; and Stephanas, a8 precsperous Corinthian business man sojourning in Athens. A sor- mon that wins a philosopher, an abandoned woman and a man of at. fafrs can hardly be called barren. That sermon was the condemnatior of Athens; but it has helped save the world. ---- Both May Be There, A minister in the north of Sao*- land took to tagk one of his hearers who was a frequent defaulter, aad was reproaching him as an habitu- al absentee fiom public worship.
