No man has a right to do as
he pleaseS only in so far as he

Religion is not burden. 1t is
means by which men can bear
their burdens.
A man may have a thousand
excuses for not repenting but he

MONTGONERYISNIS:

Evangelist Montgomery has
few equals as a maker of cpl
grams. The following were
picked from two or three of his
sermons by at Appeal man:
Religion is something more
than a fire escape.
Some men would cross hell on
a rotten rail for "a dollar.
Men are either going from good
to better or from bad to worse.
Much bad living is due to bad

Men are not saved from sin

These meetings are led by men,
