Rev. j. Z. Jones, ID. ID. preached az
the First Baptist church Sunday,
10th inst. Text: John IV-29: els
not this the Christ2'
He described the appearance of
Christ, defining his manner. He
spoke of the evidences of Christians
ty. Ignorant and degraded as the
world is it often takes more direct
road TO Christ than the theolo-
gians.
We must recognize. the fact that
not Messiah is needed, but that a
Messiah has come, and has within
him the power to draw all men unto
him. He has a right to the heart,
for he is sent of God. Hence the
question SIS not this the Christ?''
BE has sympathy for the poor, the
wretched. the outcast.
The evidences of Christianity are
manifold,
Like the oily that spreads itself
to the sunshine and to the dripping
dew" Jesus Christ will come in. Our
destiny is determined by our every
day acts.
Unless our acts are in harmony
with God and in conformity with
the Sermon on the Mount, and in
conformity with His teachings, we
viii hear in the last day the often re.
peated words, depart from me, ye
cursel."
''The soul that sinneth it shall
die" 1t is the right of Christ to
reign in the heart. 1t is the right OF
the heart to be free and happy
The heart will not be satisfied with
other than the Son of God. He pic
tured the beauties of Christianity
using language that was flowing
and his oratorical fights entranc
ing.
1t was an able effort and gave un
| bounded satisfaction.
