Evangelist &. 4. Leak Begins Re-
yivuI Services.
The series Of meetings which were an
nounced to begin yesterday at the Contra
Christian church, by Evangelist d. A. Leak
were commenced under very favorable cir.
cumstances. The subject of the morning
sermon was The Mission of the Church.
1t was a mastery discussion of the sub
ject and showed that the great mission
OF the church was to save souls.
A large audience assembled at the even
ing service to hear Mr.. Leak on why !
Am Not An Iniidel.' He handled his sub
ject we'll, and treated the iufde and skeptic
with kindness. He said there were no dis
believers, as a disbeliever was one who
had examined all the evidence and then
rejected the proposition. No man has ever
examined all the evidence and rejected
Christ. While there are many honest and
intelligent skeptics. they are misguided
The bible goes hand and hand with true
science and nowhere contradcts It. God
has given us two books. the one of revela-
ton, the other of nature. Both are true
and truth can not be contradictory Skep-
ticism destroys the individual, society, the
school, the church and even the govern
ment. 1t takes away, but gives nothing in
return.
There will be services every night this
week beginning at s o'clock and the theme
for the entire week will be The Founda
tions of Our Faith" some phaze Of which
will be taken up each night.
