Rev. Mr.. Williams last Sabbath after
noon filled his position In the NJ. K. /
Church. His text was, He that hath
ears to hear. let him hear This sub
ject he carefully and prayerfuily de |
iivered to AT attentive audience. He
impressed on his hearers the import
ance of having distinct hearing, and
II the utternnces were distinctly heard
would avoid SO many mlsunderstand-,
ings and misrepresentation He
thought TINT prayer was the bostl
remedy to assist in hearing a sermon,
and advised his people when they
came to church to realize where they
were. and Instead of allowing their
thoughts to wander perhaps miles
away or on their next days proceed.
ings, to look the minister In the eyes
and not turn the head even II the
President OF the United States should
enter the church.
lie also gave an illustration about
an old man who orce heard q sermon
preached and notorious liar in the
congregation, and at once this appli-
cation was fixed on the right one.
Brother Williams said 1t was not alto
gether the hearing OF a sermon but 1t
was best to practice 1t, and what you
did hear. hear 1t with prayer, He said
,
to tnble to cat men !, and he wac
hungry. he would not care about so
: much sty lie In the manner the neces.
saries were served for style would not
satisfy hunger. He wanted something
, to eat.
Another idea he suggested was that
some people would rather see the
D manner a sermon was preached than
r the matter preached about. but he in.
sisted that the matter was more i'm.
portant than the manner. Brother
. Williams has certainly been an active
( worker In our midst and has iabored
/. faithfully with his people, and may
God send blessings of prosperity upon
him.
