meeting, and that building was soon
crowded to its capacity.
Out of Town.
A perusal of hotel registers and an
examination of the audiences showed
that there was a large number of out
of town people here for no other rea-
son than to attend the revival serv-
ices. If letters and messages to evan
gelists and pastors from all parts of
North Dakota and Northern Minnesota
are to be taken as an evidence of in
terests, there is great hunger for
Christ in the communities about us.
No doubt there will be 1000 or more
people in the city during this week.
The Lutheran and Methodist churches
of Grafton have arranged for a joint
effort in that city, and evangelists will
be assigned there this week. DR..
Broen of the Lutheran Seminary at
Wahpeton has written requesting Mr..
Hunt to send him workers at once.
The whole college is interested, and
the student prayer meetings indicate
that a revival movement has already
begun. Valley City, Minot and other
points are sending in similar requests,
and there is every appearance of large
things in store for the Christian people
of the Northwest. Great responsibility
and earnest effort to measure up for
the opportunity
New meetings will be held in the
tabernacle each day this week. A
bible study at $3.50 and an evening
service at 1880 o'clock.
At the tabernacle Sunday evening,
Rev: Hunt took his text from the 5th
chapter of Cor. and the End and 18th
verses. His topic was "The Door Into
Christianity" He spoke in part as
follows:
Born Of the Spirit.
"Jesus speaks of this door and tells,
us that it is necessary that man
should be born of the spirit. Now
this truth is apt to be misunderstood,
1t is a mighty truth and like all truth
1t ought be honestly received. The,
purpose of truth is to bring freedom;
just like the purpose of light is to.
bring happiness. We all need this
truth. A great many accept the truth
for the drunkard, for the harlot. for
the profane person, for the murderer,
for the woman of society, for one who
is full of hatred or pride or covetous-
ness or selfishness or of the great sins
but the greatest sin is the sin of self.
God Is just in the judgment of his
people. Let us admit that and then
get right with God. That will mean
getting right with our fellow men.
Beware how you run against the
word of God. You can fight man and
win out but when you attempt to fight
God you are lost Jesus told PAM
1T is hard for you to kick against
