An Inspiring Sermon

The attendants at the Baptist
church Sunday morning had the
pleasure OF listening to 4 very
impressive and convincing SER
mon preached by the jealous pas
tor, Rev. w. +. Bogart, from
Daniel iii l-2l, which contained
the action of ACKNOWLEDGMENT
against Shadrach, MeShach and
Abeduego, when they refused to
bow down to the golden image
which the king had set up and
commanded his subjects to wor-
ship. The lesson drawn from the
inspired words was for people to
be honest, sincere and faithful in
their obligations, in affairs OF
everyday life as well as IN their
spiritual manifestations, and by
this consistency of spirit and eX-
ample only the best results OF
living can flow into this hfe, with
the standing for that which is
right and true, and in accordance
with Gods word to mount on an
gels wings, when life's Journey
on earth is ended, into the King
dom Everlasting.
So earnestly and eloquently
did he plead in presenting Illus
trations and biblical applications
to the theme in hand that he
made marked impression on his
hearers, leaving no doubt in their
minds that his conviction stamped
every word he uttered.
