It is an awful mistake of these pious people to think you must be awfully poor in order to be pious. IT IS AN AWFUL MISTAKE OF THOSE PIOUS PEOPLE WHO THINK YOU MUST BE AWFULLY POOR IN ORDER TO BE PIOUS
ney--until the collection-basket goes around, and then we almost swear at the people because they don’t give more money. Oh, the inconsistency of such doctrines as that! Money is power, and you ought to be reasonably ambitious to have it. You ought because you can do more good with it than you could without it. Money printed your Bible, money builds your churches, money sends your missionaries, and money pays your preachers, and you would not have many of them, either, if you did not pay them. I am always willing that my church should raise my salary, because the church that pays the largest salary always raises it the easiest. You never knew an exception to it in your life. The man who gets the largest salary can do the most good with the power that is furnished to him. Of course he can if his spirit be right to use it for what it is given to him. I say, then, you ought to have money. If you can honestly attain unto riches in Philadelphia, it is your Christian and godly duty to do so. EVE IT IS WICKED FOR ANY MAN TO HAVE MONEY UNTIL THE COLLECTION BASKET GOES AROUND AND THEN WE ALMOST SWEAR AT THE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY DON'T GIVE MORE MONEY OR THE INCONSISTENCY OF SUCH DOTRINES AS THAT MONEY IS POWER AND YOU OUGHT TO BE REASONABLY AMBITIOUS TO HAVE IT YOU OUGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN DO MORE GOOD WITH IT THAN YOU CAN WITHOUT IT MONEY PRINTED YOUR BIBLE MONEY BUILDS YOUR CHURCHES MONEY SENDS YOUR MISSIONARIES MONEY PAYS YOUR PREACHERS AND YOU WOULD NOT HAVE THEM EITHER IF YOU DID NOT PAY THEM I AM ALWAYS WILLING THAT A CHURCH SHOULD RAISE MY SALARY BECAUSE THE CHURCH THAT PAYS THE LARGEST SALARY ALWAYS RAISES IT THE EASIEST YOU NEVER KNOW AN EXCEPTION TO THAT IN YOUR LIFE THE MAN WHO GETS THE LARGEST SALARY CAN DO THE MOST GOOD WITH THE POWER THAT IS FURNISHED TO HIM OF COURSE HE CAN IF HIS SPIRIT IS RIGHT TO USE IT FOR WHAT IT IS GIVEN TO HIM I SAY THEN YOU OUGHT TO HAVE MONEY IF YOU CAN HONESTLY ATTAIN YOUR RICHES IN PHILADELPHIA IT IS YOUR CHRISTIAN AND GODLY DUTY TO DO SO
