assage David was speaking to the
Nnnyorld of material things and sudden
WHY hats and reasons that man can't
i've always in this world, but must
|arajoon leave it. In the congregation
~ she speaker said there were num-
aber on the way to heaven, and, sad
VITO say. q number on the way to hell.
ng There were those who We're in the
Snhands OF Coo, while there were 9th
srs who were in the hands of Satan.
He declared that if there were any in
the fear of sin and under Gods con-
thing about righteousness, it was his
duty to tell them about it from the
AZ pulpit He said that it had been
/. taught by some that if God is
Il righteous. but that there would be
I'd universal salvation. God has given
Id us laws and intended for those laws
to be obeyed, and if he did not re-
1,N
Ns6uld cease TO be God. Every sin
against man or God will be punished.
God says look to him and We shall
live. He said that he could not preach
the truth and the whole truth and BE-
~ true to himself AMI to those to whom
he preached unless he preached some
thing else than the JOY and nnquench
able glory of heaven. There arr scourg
ings for those in sin, and ev&rv in
fraction Of Gods law is punished. He
said that it may be impolitic for
preacher to declare that ev
erasting punishment is true
doctrine, but that it was not his busi-
ness to make the doctrines to suit the
tastes of the people. but to tell them
the truth, and if you die in your wick
edness you must live in everlasting
punishment. He said there were two
classes-the saved and thf unsaved.
the righteous and the unrighteOus-
and that there were two places of
eternal abode that Christ taught
that there is a heaven for the saved.
the righteous. and hell for the un
saved the unrighteous. 1t is not ev-
V will enter the kingdom of heaven
Is not the ungodly who builds upon the
aa sinking sands, but those who build
s upon Christ. Who shall go to heaven
IS and who shall not? There is one man
and one woman who will, and there
nv is one man and one woman who will
not. The ungodly shall not stand
iE the day of judgment. If you know
rot God there is no chance for you at
heavens gate. If you are sinner
you can't stand. The speaker quoted
from the Bible to show that the un-
godly, the unrighteous, the wicked,
the sinner, and the unbeliever can
@ rot stand in the judgment day, and
III can not enter the kingdom of God.
s If you have not accepted God as
III your redeemer you can't stand. Ask
81 ing the question, "Who shall stand
a hen God appears?" he read from the
a seventy-sixth Psalm:
VI "Thou, even thou, art to be feared;
q and who may stand in thy sight when
u once thou art angry? Thou didst
VI cause Judgment to be heard from
heaven; the earth feared. and was
\ still, when God arose to judgment to
save all the meek of the earth.''
God is angry with the wicked ev-
cry day, angry with the ungodly and
the unrighteous. "Who shall stand?
He that God makes stand. He that
trusts in Gods strength and not In
his own; the man who has been heal
' ed by the voice and the touch OF the
blessed Savior; that man with the
faith to touch the hem of Christ's gar
ment of righteousness; that man
n touched by the healing hand OF Al
mighty God. When God touches you
and breaks the chain of sin you are
..eady to stand in his holy place. The
person with clean hands and pure
heart shall stand"
At the conclusion of the sermon
five persns went forward and declar-
od their Intention to seek Christ.
