 He showed that God is seeking the risht-of-way in every mans heart, but it is by mans will whether he will turn from sin to God. and allow God this right-of-way or not
 Rev. Vermillion used many script ures and practical illustrations bear ing out the principles presented in his discourse.
 This was one of the most masterful sermons that has ever been preached in the Ohio street church. and you are missing very much indeed.
