From the state and relation Of justiflCa.
ton believers are called to 60 on unto
perfection. The maintenance Of q JUST.
fed state Is extremely doubtful unless
there be constant effort to go on unto
full salvation. The remains Of evil In US
are ready to spring up in the moment we
cease to watch and pray. And thiS evil
in US is almost certain to break out at our
weakest point But Christ can make the
weakest point strong. Paul would glory
In his inllrmiIles that the power OG OiaEiAt
rest upon him.
Is not Jesus able TO save US fully? Is
not full salvation the work Jesus came to
accomplish Paul says, "He Is able to
save to the uttermost all them that come
unto God by him." lie also ptays, "The
very God OF peace sanCtlty you wholly,
and pray God that your whole spirit,
and soul, and body be preserved blame
less unto the coming of the Lord Jesus
Christ"
We see from this subject what Is the
real trouble in leading christian life
tie lack Of a "cIeaR heart" This explains
also why professors OF religion run after
the worldRo muCh.5 They have not re-
ligion that makes them happy 50 they
turn to thelWOrld. gT.! h -
But what is to make us happy in heSv-
en-? Is not Christ the sum of Joy in
heaven II, therefore, Christ dwell in lis
fully here, he will satisfy US.
The speaker also pointed out the way
by which this blessing Is tobe obtained
by simple trust in Christ as a. complete
and perfect saviour. But there is prep.
aration for this faith. This faith Is the
easiest thing in the world when the heart
Is prepared. There must be an absolute
abandonment Of all sln-entfre Consecra-
ton. 1t must be sought earnestly, dc.
string 1t more than life. And then trust
simply; the blood cleanseth me, This is
receiving Christ as your full saviour.
Then beyond this, at some time not far
distant, there comes the baptism Of the
Holy Ghost. This baptism should be
prayed for and expected every moment.
The afternoon was devoted to saCra-
mental service, and some parting counsel
by the National Committee.

The National Committee had not only
