that social conditions were rather

! I fear they are looking at sacred
things as mere routine.
Then there is the point of view of
the in1penitent thief. There are many
men who are so prejudiced against
Jesus Christ that they would do any
thing, give any amount of money
rather than be saved, rather than adj
nit that they need the redemption of
Jesus Christ. Then there is the man
who says that his father was too good,
; that he gave him religion enough in
his first fifteen years to last him all
the rest of his life. Prejudice, deep
rooted. I have no trust or respect for
that man. Doubtless if you go under
his coat you will find him scoundrel.
Shame on him that he should blame
his neglect of Jesus Christ on his de-
voted father or sainted mother. A pitt
ably weak excuse that is for a man to
make.
Then there is the view of ChriSt'S
death taken by the penitent thief and
that hero of the Christian church, st.
Paul. The understanding of their need
came over them, they accepted him and
then testified for him. If a man real
ly believes Jesus Christ died for him
how can he do otherwise than testify
to others of him. How can man truly
be a Christian without being an en-
thusiastic one.
There is no glory without Him, there
is no victory without Him, there is no
way without Him for He is the Way.
And as this is so, how can we do less
than accept Him, give Him our loyal
service and proclaim Him to fellow be-
ings in need of Him.
After a most earnest prayer in which
he pleaded that the spirit of God might
come and move the hearts Of men to
accept Jesus as their Saviour, DR.. Os-
from announced the hymn ''In the
Cross of Christ I Glory" which was
sung through by the congregation with
much feeling.
After the hymn DR.. Ostrom spoke of
the position of the evangelical churches
that men. whatever their color might
be. were on an equality as they accept
ed Christ as their Saviour. He decrfed
the idea that n. negro or one of any
other race than the white. could not
be a good Christian, At the close he
appealed TO the men and women who
had not accepted Christ to do so at
once. In response to his request many
hands We're raised throughout the con-
gregation. While all heads were bow
