that the evangelistic work was not q

Jesus Christ was himself an evangelist,
He enulnera ted some of5the most suc-
cessful evangelists since Christ's day,
and added that evangelism has been
the real sp!rationfo of our work IN the
South" The principle underlying the
cyangelistic movement in the local
church is tic true evangelistic plan.
The local church and its agencies are
best equipped to preach the gospel and
TO conserve the results of that preach
ing.
People ought to be brought to Christ
under the Influence of the church. One
valuable feature Of the work as it was
being attempted was to bring Baptist
ministers into entire harmony of effort
and to emphasize the idea Of working
together to save men. cold sores are
being healed in the churches by the
work which Mr.. Hamilton is doing"
said Mr.. White, The home mission

After stating what he called his work

traced the history OF Christianity in its
early stages up to the present, with
its new and multiplied agencies and
It's organization. "rhe weakness of

need more consistency, more devotion.
more conservation, more prayer among
the members of the church.
There can be no such thing as q

aroused. The Individual Christian
must be evangelical first. The old reg

said the speaker.
Continuing. DR.. Hutton said that the
scriptural warrant for Individual work
was to be found In the first chapter
of John, which he quoted. John the
Baptist had practiced It; Andrew
brought his brother Simon to Christ.
and Philip brought Nathaniel. THAT

He preferred the sure shot with tho

appeal directed especially to an in
