The morning service In the First Zap
tst church was we'll attended. A strong
sermon on Christian stewardship was
rendered by Rev. d. A. Brown.
Commencing NJ s;30 p. m, TWO services
were held in the evening. the first oou-
tinuing It'll 7;45 and tho second at p.
m. Both services were crowded; a
the second service the pastor, Rev. ID, A.
Brown, preached an eloquent sermon
from the words: What Think Ye OF
Christi" In part the pastor said;
"The questionings Of the human neart
were diversified and in many cases un-
answerabe II WAS not so much What
people had to say about this personality
az what the Book had 10 say ABOUT
different conditions OF the human fsm'-
ly Here We ind in this question or me
text a personal allusion 10 the unfold
ing of the direct relationship that eN-
lists between the individual and mo
Christ What Think Ye? n does
not matter 80 much what the tndiyidual
thinks far as the standing OF me
Savior is concerned. His position and
does no; matter so much what one thinks
OF another The matter OF man $
thought does not change the existed
thing. for individuals do not exist In
thought II II were so then what one
thinks another would he. many things
are existent ard have existed which are
yet TO he brought to the thought OF men.
Ii makes no difference to the eternal con-
think OF him. That does not change. II
what we thought OF that relation were
dependent upon thought then every
time we changed our mind the relation
chip would be prolatlonal with our
thought, There Is standard outside
Of ourselves by which we measure our
relationship and accountability. What
you think of Christ does not vltiate the
Son Of God
Again the speaker said The lit Of
Christ and death of Christ VIII not be
defeated by what the individual may
think; for either It will be SAVIOR OF
life unto life. or a SAVIOR OF death unto
death--the foundation upon which this
relationship ls founded. The experience
OF 81 soul in his thought will change US.
This Ia Conversion. the new Bath.
Four illustrative cases prove this:
First, one class. the scribes and
Pbsrises called Him Beelzebub. the
innate of the hrst. Their thought linn
tied their knowledge and they looked up-
on him as the controller OF the powers OF
He'll. Their thinking apparatus was
wrong.
Second. Another class looked merely
upon the human side and called him the
Son Of David. Merely the estimate OF
him a man. What use have we with
him as q mere man as were are men.
The third class were the fishermen,
who were asked their estimate of whai
others thought OF him and gave answer
that some looked upon him as John the
Baptist, a prophet and others as Jere-
miah But the personal question put 10
Peter. Whom do We say that J. the
son of man, am?" And to this came the
true and only answer 10 The question,
NJ art the Christ the Son OF the
Living Cod Herein was the foundation
upon which the Master was to build his
church. Here was the true conception oi
Him that is born in the soul by the
Spirit OF the Living God.
In conclusion the speaker said "The
distance from the individual to Heaven
was measured by his belief in the first
and the distance from the individual tc
He'll was measured by his unbelief in
Him.

ed interest and attention. The meetings

NAL service and the usual meetings to-
morrow afternoon at and evening a,
