\ large audience was assembled to hear
this, Mr.. Moody first discourse of the day.
Some time before the hour OF opening, sing
ing began, led by Mr.. E. p. Shaw. The
meeting opened with the singing of the
hymn No. 30 and prayer by Rev. Mr..
Griffin, Mr.. Moody made short prayer and
all united in singing IT'S the promise of
God" Mr.. Moody announced his subject
as "Christ in the Old Testament, He re-
marked that he was led to select it from
conversation held with man who would
receive the doctrine from the New Testa-
ment. but thought that all in the Old
was a myth. As | have said on a
previous occasion, take Christ out of the
Bible and there is nothing lett. God says
the Scriptures cannot be broken. A few
years ago | started with Genesis and read
the Bible through from back to back, and
every one who bad tried to break the
Scriptures was DESTROYED. If you can
prove God false in anything you would
doubt all things. just as now, if you think
| have uttered one fslsehood, you would
doubt all else | might say. We need to
read and study our Bibles more. II by
coming to Burlington | can lead one hun
dred to feed more on their Bibles, ii Is
worth more than to have led many to
ohilst. many are leu 10 Ohrlst unuer

Numbers XIV. H. His coming is prophes'ed.
In Psalms Xix, 81. are the events OF
His death. In TINS connection aid you
