Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints Millennial Star, Vol. 75: June 19, 1913
The churches are not filled to-day as they were in times gone by. Men, it seems, have become indifferent to religion, and instead of our seeing them on a Sunday morning wending their way-to the place for worship, we find them hurrying away to some place of amusement. Men in multitudes have lost all rever ence for the Sabbath, and, as time 1011s on, they are little by little drifting away from the Christian life.
The question, What must I do to be saved? Does not trouble them, and their golden rule seems to be, Do others before they do you. The average man does not trouble himself about others, from brotherly regard, but lives only for self. In his haste to make a fortune, he overlooks the poor and distressed, who perhaps are starving or freezing for the want of a friend or a kind, helping hand. Where is the true Christian spirit of love, kindness and brotherly feeling? Why is man so selfish and greedy, worshiping mammon instead of God?
