CENTURY GOSPEL CAMPAIGN
The Rev. DR.. ]. Wilbur Chapman at the Fourth
Presbyterian Church yesterday preached a sermon
in the Twentieth Century Gospel Campaign, taking
for his text, Come thou and all thy house into
the ark Genesis VIII y. He said In part:
This is the first "come" in the Bible. The last in
viation is also come. and is filled with the spirit
of tho Gospel. In fact. the Bible Is come all the
way through. This is of the most interesting
stories in the Word of God;
First-BeCause. II il had not been tried some one
would have suggested that the way to reform the
world would be to destroy all the drInkards. har
lots and sinners of every sort. But the story or
the ark and the flood proves the falacy of this.
Second-Because 1t is perfect Illustration OF
Christ. and in this account the very things that
men have questioned He stamps true. IL IS all
typical of the Saviour and what He stands FOR
The ark stood between Noah and Judgment; so
cepted Him shall never stand in Judgment for sin
Paul has declared IL, and Jesus Himseif mas en-
phaszed it, We need not fear the great white
throne. IL is not for the sinner who finds refuge
in Christ. ~,
